Area69 - TOO VERY IMPORTANT Poll!
Added 2025-03-12 17:52:05 +0000 UTCIMPORTANT: Before voting, I ask everyone who participates to please read the reasons and possibilities carefully:
In the two final missions (Werewolves and Vampires: v0.85 and v0.86 respectively), some girls "could" die (I won't say which ones to avoid spoilers, but I will mention several names so you can take them into account when making your poll decision).
Possible candidates to die: Isabella, Elena, Amelia, Adriana, Sylvia, Evelyn, Catalina. (Only 1, 2, or 3 of this entire list would die; I won't give the exact number to avoid spoilers.)
For this reason, the girls who die will not have new sex scenes, and the existing scenes will disappear from the game, as they will no longer be part of the "open world"... The gallery scenes where they participate will remain so that, as a commemoration, anyone who wants to can continue to dedicate a "manual tribute" to them.
I've already written both endings and the possibilities of them dying or living...
I'll explain the reasoning behind both options so you can see and understand what I'm getting at:
1: If Area69 were a book or an action game, I would clearly choose to have some people die to give the story more drama and realism. Some people will be saddened by the deaths, while others will jump for joy to get their just desserts or simply because they couldn't stand a certain NPC.
2: Since Area69 IS NOT a book or an action game, but rather an "attempt" at a story so you can have fun with perky asses and bouncing tits, I understand that many of you prefer to have as many girls available as possible to satisfy your basic instincts, hahaha....
That being said, I'd like to hear everyone's opinion on the matter...
In addition to the votes, I'd like many of you to explain your reasons in the comments. Perhaps an interesting idea will emerge to implement to change an endings or incorporate some interaction in the future that would allow for certain changes...
P.S.: Regardless of the outcome of the poll (which I will attach great importance to, I will make the final decision based on what's best for the game... whether it's in terms of gameplay, fun, and, most importantly, the story)
P.S. 2: Feel free to leave at least the names of the girl/s you absolutely wish wouldn't die in the comments!
I hope for everyone's collaboration on this important decision!
Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this far...
I look forward to your votes and especially your comments!
Thanks again for your continued support!

Excuse me, I actually wanted to reply much earlier. Now I finally have time to describe in detail what I thought when you were thinking about the permanent death of women in the game. I've been supporting you for a long time now and I think this mixture of interesting story, interesting women and adult game is what keeps me on your side. A permanent death would destroy exactly this mixture. Yes, it might make the story more interesting. That's true. But the adult content would stagnate and I wouldn't have the opportunity to talk to the woman I find interesting and lovely anymore. So, two of the three pillars that make your game interesting for me would be broken. That's why I voted for "no". And there's also another thing about it. Not all scenes are available in the scene replay. If the girl died and is removed from the open world, than I'd have to store a lot of savegames to "enjoy" the repeatable scenes again. I wouldn't be such a huge fan of that. Cheers

2025-03-22 11:01:33 +0000 UTCNo one dying is my vote, and it seems like that's the vote for alot of people. Im sure theres alot more you can do with the current roster of character, especially the ones who havent interacted with each other yet. But I would love to see an alternate universe type update where a character does dies, but after the game is finished. Plus I don't want to see Paula killed off, I wanna see what you do with that them. Maybe another futa character?

2025-03-17 21:03:52 +0000 UTCBut Catalina is mature and has big tits... How do I kill her? It's just a joke... thanks for your participation and support, The Tick!

2025-03-17 20:17:56 +0000 UTCActions have consequences (even inaction is an action). Yes, death may happen ( yours, mine, his, hers, everyone must die)... errr the voices are starting again... Anyways, yes kill'em off.
Erik
2025-03-14 15:30:27 +0000 UTCAs much as I don't want any of them gone, out of all the names you listed, I'd say Catalina could go if you really need to thin the herd. Yeah, I know, there's probably a special place in Hell for me suggesting to get rid of the nun lol

2025-03-14 00:11:40 +0000 UTCI'm on the no deaths side. There are other ways to add weight or drama to a story other than just killing off characters. That said, if you have a plan for the story that demands such a thing, go for it. Just don't take Isabella. :D

2025-03-13 23:50:17 +0000 UTCThanks for your support and participation as always, Leslie... I would love for Morrigan or Shadowheart to make a cameo in some of the Area69 harems hahaha

2025-03-13 11:28:50 +0000 UTCI don't want any of the girls to die. Whenever I'm playing roleplaying games I always tend to be a goodie, someone who tries to avoid conflict as much as possible, and I become a mediator solving conflicts when they arise among team members (for example in Dragon Age: Origins or Baldur's Gate 3, there are instances where team members can turn on you, or on each other, I always opt to keep around everyone). I hope we'll be able to reach a somewhat happy ending in your game too, where the different factions can coexist, and we can have a huge harem of vampires, werewolves, etc. without any sacrifice. But same as with the other games I've mentioned, there always a playthrough where I turn into an asshole just for the fun of it, to see how the story can shape differently. I am open to see what you have planned for us, how the story would shape with some characters dying, but as I said, this would not be my first choice for a playthrough.

2025-03-13 09:48:50 +0000 UTCI just want Amelia to live, and the reason is, I personally love this character, hahaha

2025-03-13 08:28:37 +0000 UTCThanks for your continued collaboration, Ray! Evelyn is too hot to let die, right? Haha.

2025-03-13 06:49:20 +0000 UTCThanks for your support and participation, Zuza! Great rundown of the game's various NPCs. They'll all be featured in due course. Some of the girls you mentioned haven't had their moment of glory yet... Their opportunities will come!
k78Games
2025-03-13 06:48:04 +0000 UTCIt sounds like your story building is saying death is needed then let's do it. You have been building this up for a long time so let's do it right. Save Evelyn, she has been in so many scenes that I feel like a connection has been built.

2025-03-13 04:01:36 +0000 UTCI would choose if you do vampire route Evelyn because for me side protagonist in Lucy`s story. Maybe together with with Roman und Luca to create new hybrid-race pack with Sylvia and Lucy (thinking of hybrid protagonist from underworld). As for the vampires it should be Isabella because she caused in some way together with Victor the mess and is if i think about the scene at the bar which she killed the couple for example not really a nice guy :-). Elena should stay alive because you had the choice to kill her if you wanted in the story where you could choose to become a vampire. So later not if you are on werewolf route you could create with her a new race or cure her if she is your prisoner and you stayed human for example. Adriana (just born :-)) or Catalina hard to choose. Think none of them. Instead maybe Jessica later in Pure DNA in a fight with Eva`s guy by accident? Catalina could become in Angels and Demons an angel if you like to be a good guy and Alicia dies or Lilith if shes alive Partner by Alica if you like to be more evil and Martha would die.

2025-03-13 02:28:31 +0000 UTCI agree. They are my two favorites. I'd be fuckin pissed if either of them died.

2025-03-13 01:48:16 +0000 UTCIn the next update, there will be important and unexpected events for both characters... Let's wait and see how things unfold!
k78Games
2025-03-12 23:35:17 +0000 UTCShouldn't Sylvia and Elena die? Shouldn't Victoria be forgotten...

2025-03-12 22:38:06 +0000 UTCFor me the more Isabella equals the better. So I'm curious about the next update. I just hope it doesn't end up like the ME2 massacre when the companion missions aren't finished. :-D I personally don't like it when there are unwinnable scenarios in games. If it's a form of choice, it's ok in exchange for some emotional investment, but I'm not a fan when it's basically an inevitable execution of a character for the purpose of at least some emotional impact (for example, they did it well in the game Acting Lessons, I absolutely hated the forced choice, but I admit that it had an impact and I remember the game because of it to this day)

2025-03-12 21:38:37 +0000 UTCDie for story. Do it for the team

2025-03-12 21:30:41 +0000 UTCThanks for your support and participation, Tarmenel. There will be some big surprises for both of them in the next update... Will you change your mind, or maybe even want them more?
k78Games
2025-03-12 21:14:14 +0000 UTCIsabella is definitely my priority to save, followed by Evelyn.

2025-03-12 21:11:33 +0000 UTCHahaha, spectacular example, Dewboy! My first story development was thinking about making the two final missions, especially the vampire mission, like the "suicide mission" from Mass Effect 2! But due to development time and having to release updates piecemeal, it's impossible for me to implement something so complex... But I don't rule out including or changing those decisions once all the game's missions are completed! That Mass Effect 2 mission is unforgettable... I remember that luckily, and because all the characters were on good terms, I was able to complete it without any guides and on the first try without any deaths! Then, watching videos, I learned that many could die if I did things wrong! You are a cultured person! Thank you for participating in the survey and for your support!
k78Games
2025-03-12 19:22:10 +0000 UTCIs it hand of hand of fate boom your dead type ie required for the story or are your thinking mass effect 2 style thing where they will die if you don't get enough points with them?

2025-03-12 19:09:54 +0000 UTCThanks for participating, Liam! Excellent explanation of your motivations! Remember, the aliens are working on some projects that could bring certain characters back to life... The problem will be figuring out the "state" they return to... ;-)

2025-03-12 18:46:10 +0000 UTC(Isabella, Elena, Amelia, Adriana, Sylvia, Evelyn, Catalina.) Well, As far as killing your heroes, I've read a few best selling authors say you can and should, it adds realism and emotion. I'm sure many would miss the opportunity to enjoy the survivors, but I think it would be a little empty. Tragedy, when written well, breeds value to the characters, and the story overall. I still recall fondly our now lost cursed girl, Valentina, and even though I'm sad she cannot be interacted with anymore, she remains one of my fondest memorys, likely because she is now gone. (On a side note, she gave the MC the boat, there needs to be an interactable/repeatable pay off for that). Further, a life and death struggle without a cost/butcher's bill as less value then one where everyone you love survives and you move on like it never happened. Evelyn is a victim, as much as Lucy. I certainly don't want them cured, just freed. So I'd just hate whoever killed Evelyn, and if it was stupid, I'd hate the author who killed her off poorly. Of all the wolves, outside of Lucy, Eve would be the only one I'd "work" to save. Isebella is a very cool character. Both victim, tragic tale, villian, and life of the party all rolled into one. She is also a survivor, and powerful. I love me some Isabella. Amelia can give all for her cause, Elena can tossed on the bomb. No perma-killing Isabella. The world would be diminished without her darkness in it. So yeah, as long as you don't kill off Eve or Isa, the rest can be victims/martyrs for the cause. :)

2025-03-12 18:45:55 +0000 UTCThere are certainly characters that could die that would not affect my enjoyment of the game. Faster pussycat kill kill!

2025-03-12 18:42:53 +0000 UTCThanks as always for participating, Randy! I respect your opinion, and that's the reason for this poll... If it weren't a "fun with girls" game, my decision would be clear...

2025-03-12 18:31:37 +0000 UTCThanks for participating and supporting, Kevin! I won't be voting; I don't want to influence the results... But I pretty much agree with what you're saying ;-)
k78Games
2025-03-12 18:27:52 +0000 UTCI don’t know f the game needs the added drama of permanent death. Everyone has a lady on the list they could lose and one that’s a favorite, you run the risk of alienating some players if, in the course of dramatic events, their number one is doomed. No more content for her. Sorry.
Randy Daytona
2025-03-12 18:24:46 +0000 UTCI say let some die we need some realism plus it really make those choices we make in the game really matter

2025-03-12 18:24:01 +0000 UTCHi Drbadtouch33... What you say sounds good to me, it's something I'm considering. The problem is that to include the version (Dark or Light) I would need more development time and first I want to finish ALL the remaining missions, including the secondary ones (Judy, Emilia, Victoria, Paula, Andrea) and some things that are too interesting (scenes in the wolf pack, in the possible vampire harem, pregnancies, etc...) that I'm going to include but for that to be possible the two main missions must be finished. Thanks for your support and participation in the survey!
k78Games
2025-03-12 18:14:04 +0000 UTCI don't want to see anyone die. With that being said I'd still like to see what the story looks like with the decisions that the creator has in mind. Looks like the vote might go against letting anyone die but I think letting some people go would make the story more interesting. Next time I say just do it. Or at least maybe later do a spin off what if, in which those characters do die...maybe a darker version of the story?
