VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Rebirth [Ep.1-5 All in One] [LikesBlondes]

After playing "Life With Mary" I was looking forward to a new game by LikesBlondes but "Rebirth" is a disappointing followup. This is more of a kinetic novel than a game, the player doesn't really have a chance to influence or change the story, instead the developer has made all of the decisions for them. That Includes who the LI is in the story, a rather ordinary looking vampire named Sharon and she often treats the MC like a puppy. Annoyingly, despite this, the MC relentlessly pursues her.
I am not a fan of the vampire genre but enjoy when authors mix up or change the classic themes, perhaps modernizing them. Unfortunately it doesn't feel like there was any attempt to change or own this theme. All of the standard vampire tropes are present: reverting to a corpse during the day, sunlight, thralls, blood, etc.

Pros: Well done renders

Cons: Lack of input from the reader, no real replayability since there are few choices and they don't matter.

I see some people saying this is a great slow-burn. I respectfully disagree. The art is hi def, which is pleasant, but not a single steamy scene outside of the first meeting. Your sire is the typical immortal that's bored of immortality so instead of just ending it they just do things because, "lol random." Hints at some big story in the works, but anytime the MC asks a question he's talked to like a child. Just left me with a "meh" feeling after slogging through dialog and "choices" that seem to be mostly cosmetic.

I'll be honest, I am not particularly interested in vampires and all that shit. I have only tried this game now because I noticed it's made by the same devil from "Life with Mary". And I am really glad I did.

What can I say... There are no sexual scenes so far(E1/U7), so if you're looking for a quick wank, this is not for you.

The story is very interesting, I found myself disappointed when the current content ended and it left me wanting more.

Renders are good, models are good looking and not refurbished from other games.

Characters are well written and have all have their own backstory and personality.

I really liked the gradual buildup and the interactions between Sharon and the MC.

Overall a very good game, well worth supporting. The dev is also reliable and consistent with his updates.

5 stars.

I am looking forward to new updates!

EP 1 Update 7

I wasn't expecting much from this game, but i really liked it, the story is very interesting and the characters are likeable. I like the MC personality and Sharon is gorgeous.

If you want quick sex scenes this isn't your game, but if you want a really good story to keep you waiting for more, this is exactly your game

Can't wait for this story to continue!

8.5/10

Love everything about this game so far. The story, renders, genre, dialogue. Probably my favorite game on the site right now. Keep up the excellent work. Can't wait to see where this goes. I assume animations, scene galleries, etc. are coming.

First of all usually I'm not into vampire stories but in this game it works for me if you are the vampire and not the vampire hunter that is more fun. Maybe thats the couse. Renders is nice story is really well written and characters are interesting so game can be addictive. Only bad point I felt about is there are not too many choices.

Excelent game, excelent story 10/10! It reminds me of an old rpg game - Vampire the Masquerade:Bloodlines mix with old tv series - Kindred, story is very interesting and i think, with more content added and how it will develop it deserves not only a regular game attention but also as a masterpiece of novel itself. Renders and characters are also excelent btw.

Review of Ep. 1 Update 7
Although I'm not a great vampire lover, I admit this game has managed to make the topic captivating.

The characters are particular and well-caracterized ... Each of them has strengths and weaknesses and wants to get to know them better to continue discovering them.

The gradual advancement of relationships seems real and is engaging ... The more you make progress towards the conquest of the girl, the more you know and appreciate her.

Recommended for those who love slow, detailed and captivating stories, where the characters, the story and the development of the plot are more important than sex.

This game is great. If you are looking for a game to coom to quickly, then this probably isn't what you want, as there is no sex in the game yet, although there is a good amount of lewd content. However, as a story based game, this is the best VN I've played on this website. I am very pleasantly surprised.

Captivating story, well made and belivable characters, top quality renders. Got that vampire story climat and some humor too. As of yet no porn at all and 2 hours of reading . Definietly has potential to be great.

Expected yet-another-mediocre-VN but was very surprised, this game is something else! Good writing, likeable characters and engaging plot, combined with nice art and strong VtM vibes. No sexual content at this time, but still worth to play.

I mean honestly this is one of the best.

Good story line, nice character development and fucking vampires!

I wish i could rate this even higher, defiantly gonna fall in love with this once you play it.

Now _this_ is a proper game: superb plot and character development, a fully-realised world with its own rules and logic, and believable relationships.

Don't go in with false expectations, though. This is not good fap material, yet... nor is it even particularly erotic at this point -- but the dev is setting things up very well for a turn in that direction quite soon. There appear to be meaningful choices, as well.

Visually and in terms of the slow-burning, erotic plot development, it is quite similar to the Dev's previous work, _Life with Mary_. In other words, don't expect animations or cutting-edge graphics. But _do_ expect the slow-buring plot to pay off eventually.

One of the Dev's few faults as a storyteller is that the protagonist can seem a bit robotic at times... I've always assumed this was an English/translation issue. There are few grammatical errors, but the dialogue can seem somewhat stilted. Fortunately, these quirks asctually work well in the context of the vampire setting, in a way that was not true with _Life with Mary._

The bottom line is that _Rebirth_ seems to be another step up for the Dev, following his very good first game.

Not planning on saying much.

I would rate it more than 5* if it where possible.

This game is awesome, I have absolutely nothing bad to say. This one sets a new standard.

Just play the game, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I love the beginning remind me my first time I play VtM 20 years before Nice plot , nice image synthesis . More as i going to play more .

Training day : is nice that you meet different character from other clans and you starting to know the basic of this society but i Love to have more options.

Nice VtM terminology like:
boon, major boon (even that the hound ask incorrect , the type is normally only boon for what she offer ) fledgling , hound ,Archon (even that terminology is different than the position we see here... here is act most like a prince)

In general very nice game but with no much of sexual context

Excellent plot and characters ... better than those featuring many "decent" pay-market games ...

Instead of putting sex scenes if realistic motive or cause, here it is only a plot resource, which strengthens the plot, which instead of detracting from these scenes, they are increased because it has a reason for being ... and they end up considering an achievement ...

I gave this 5 stars despite a complete lack of any sexual content besides eye candy because the writing and art is just too good to do anything less. Not fap material, but one of the best games I've played in quite some time. I would have liked a bit more choice in my character's actions, but I understand there are necessary limitations to freedom.

Another game that has me completely sold on the story and the characters. This is a VN where the each update continues the story and leaves you wanting for more. The characters are intriguing enough to also keep you vested in the VN without having to make them fuck you to achieve that. Would recommend giving this a look as well as possibly supporting the patreon.

An "enthralling" story
The renders are top notch, original settings and NPC, a very good atmosphere, everything happens for a reason, great storytelling. Very far from most VN around here, for the best.
Some will say that the pace is slow, that the Dev takes his time to build the characters, and that so far there is very little sexual contend, BUT strangely after each release you'll yearn for more.

The game is still early in development imo

But so far its very nice a vampire game but done rite imo

The women are gud looking and the storyline makes sense and is interesting so far.

The stats building is in its early stages but showing promiss with the different trainers that u can pursue for one of ur 3 stats.

will keep a look out for this game and see what comes next but it is showing some promiss for sure. I recommend everyone to give this a try u wont be disappointed
