Ren'Py - The Pilgrimage (Chapter 2) [v0.3 Beta] [Messman]

I wanted to wait until this game had more content before reviewing. Up until this point, v0.3, I hadn't been too impressed with Chapter 2. The gameplay just wasn't there. Sex scenes happen all the time, everywhere, with no good reason. And a few changes that struck me as distracting. For instance, Vorcha cocks are more like dog cocks now instead of the thick humanoid cocks I'd gotten used to.

By v0.3, there is more gameplay available. You can see the game mechanics that will govern the bulk of the game. It's simple, but also really effective. Basically you have a nine-square grid map. You can move to adjacent squares. Each square is a new room you can explore. Random battles happen as you transition rooms. A lot of ideas can be added to this foundation. It's pretty solid.

The battles are also better than Chapter 1. In this one, you have a partner that is AI controlled. You have different suits that bring different abilities to battle. With the right suit, you can battle-fuck. Turns out fucking monsters into commission is more effective than shooting them. They of course will battle-fuck you too. The battle sex scenes are invariably hot--it's Messman, after all! At the time of writing, losing a battle is the same as winning a battle, with the exception of the Creepers. As this part of the game's mechanics is fleshed out, I'm sure it'll be a lot more fun. Game Over + perchance?

A lot of h-animated content is already packed in here. Some scenes are found just from wandering around the ship. Others are found in battle. Exploring each room thoroughly on the planets will also reward you with some hot scenes.

Overall, much like Pilgrimage Chapter 1, it feels like the game is a clothesline for a lot of monster dicks in throats and asses. The actual game elements are kind of a joke. So far Chapter 2 is a bit stronger on the game side. But we'll see. I'm perfectly fine with the clothesline if that's where this goes. It's just so relentlessly sexy!

i played ch1 when it first came out, and recently gave it another shot. considering how chapter 1 turned out, im happy dev continues with ch2. i like that there are now different costumes with different animations. that was something missing from ch1 imo, so i would like to see more modification possibilities (clothes, accessories, makeup, breast size etc. ). from what i see dev has made a new animation for each suit during the encounters, which might turn out to be a lot of work later on. of course it adds a lot to quality, but even having a couple different suits and their animations is very good in itself. i just want to be able to interact with different aspects.

i have also seen that there is now more gameplay / exploration involved and i love the idea. i like management and exploration games. i hope dev can build a good structure that is just fun, even without the adult parts a good management game that you can grind a bit. i also like that you can duo-explore and it would be really nice to see different companions with their own routes.

i also hope we can engage with and play as other characters more, i loved nyun / ami scenes in ch1 and spent half the game in the vents because of that.

i do want to criticize the h scenes though. as much as they are very high quality and i enjoy them, they do get a bit bland. it kinda feels like "oh theres an impossible d size lets try it", so i hope there is some variation. the best way i can put this is that i wish scenes had a bit more weight. in any case, i am not saying that scenes are bad and game deserves less rating. i just wish we can see different positions or changes. also, i am not sure what dev thinks, but i like having corruption increase over game and imo it would be nice if chapter2 did not start straight up with max corruption. in ch1 i even went up to 150 to see if it made a difference, turns out 75 was the cap.

finally, i normally fullmute all games and listen to something else but if dev picks nice bgm i could try it. overall, i love the game and wish all the best to the dev. it is not possible for me rn but i might consider donating in the future as the dev seems to be one of the few people on this platform who actually deliver.

Will undoubtedly become an easy 5 stars given some time and Messman is probably the coolest dev on the site, just docking a star because a mix of the early stages of the game being a little bare (obviously), the increased scope leading to imo a bunch of gristle (I'm coming here for porn, not base management or rpg like builds with weapon upgrades or whatever the plan is), and because of said gristle a noticeable slow down in updates with arguably less goon content with said updates

You can still download this for a fair bit of animations with Tali, of noticeably higher quality than when the first part initially came out, so this isn't an affront to gooning or a horrible disappointment by any means. Just airing my personal beef ig

Looking pretty nice so far. I really enjoy the planet exploration and the upgrade system has promise.

I do subtract one star because the developer seems to have an anal fetish and I do not believe that is a good choice for the default sex animations.

I'm just going to give it 5 stars on the fact what it had showed so far keep up with Part 1 and even better, which is to say I absolutely love the direction this is going. If you liked part 1, then look forward to part 2 !

I'm waiting for a continuation of a good game and I see competent development of ideas by the author and addition of new mechanics. But very strange physics of liquid, as in the first part, however, in blender you can make much more realistic sperm.

Hi, I'm Commander Sheppard and this is my favorite game on the Citadel.

Top notch Writing, Game Mechanics and Great Animations.

Tali is Sexy and the perfect kind of Horny

Regular Content Filled Updates

Keep it up Messman!

We finally waited demo of Mass Effect 4, and it looks very promising.

Cool graphics
Colorful characters
Intense animated naughty scenes
Has (skeleton of) actual (not very annoing) gameplay

As understend no chastity Tali anymore...

(review of very early version 0.2)

More discerning people might argue that giving a 5 star review this early doesn't really provide value. However I am confident to give the game that tiny, little boost. Already the varied and hassle-free accesible sex scenes are of really solid quality and the outfit Variety adds extra flavor.

Ultimately as much as I could applaud the well rendered backgrounds, steadily improving writing or ambitious gameplay mechanics. This game is about Tali and other Suit girls having rough and lewd sex with lots of monsters. And Messman intends to deliever on that it seems like. 5/5 give it a try / wank.

It's a situation where everyone else has already shared the same thoughts but you want to as well because your that passionate about it, typically for reviews that's because the dev messed up.

But for a guy named messman all he does is cook greatness. Hands down one of the best games on the site and the sequel already has enough mechanics and scenes in Beta for it to be worth 5 stars, may we get to see more asari and quarian degeneracy forevah.

[Played 0.1 Beta]
Yeah, what can I say, that hasn't been said - This is the already impessive groundwork for the sequel to an amazing game. It's not that much yet (still tons more content than most 0.1s), but it gives a really good idea where it's going. I'm excited to see what Messman has in store for us!

Wow! What a game! And its only 0.1!

+
Huge ammoun of content for 0.1
Still good gameplay (we even can see some MassEffect like gameplay elements)
Brilliant animations (especially for a game)

What to do.
You must add a zoom button. Or make something to be closer to sex action.
We NEED a Jesora as a compation!

So, if we have a 0.1 that quality i cant wait for the next updates of this masterpiece. Probably, the best or at least one of the best porn games here.

My favorite game dev out here, consistent updates, amazing models and scenes!

This beta is coming up nicely, of course there are a couple of bugs but that is to be expected this early, and with the devs track record there is absolutely nothing to worry about.

Hope there are more updates soon!

One of the best devs on this site provided you like this kind of content. Outputs consistent and dedicated work that constantly improves the game; no silly nonsense patches that add nothing after 3 years of 'work' or any of the usual scum-tricks like remasters, recodes, reartworks, revamps, engine upgrades, blahblahblah.

The original was a great game for monster lovers, using the mass effect setting was a decent bonus but for me personally didn't add much even though Tali was one of my favorite characters. Her model and personality aren't going to be familiar to old fans of ME anyway, as it's a modern imagining of her and she's rarely out of her suit in the games anyway.

However, as a fun little mostly open exploration game, it's excellent. Surprisingly fantastic writing for what little is there, and the characters have distinct and entertaining personalities that make sense within the game's context. Game mechanics are simple but not all that tedious and simply add a fun layer of interactivity that doesn't get in the way.

The h scenes are the cherry on top here, as they are great models, animated, and have sound. Great variety too, including in monster types.

Already a top tier game if you like monster/horror themed pron, as this one is off to a great start. Considering a lot of it was content cut off from the first one which had grown really massive and had some outdated bits holding it back, that's not too surprising.

Definitely looking forward to this one developing further!

I never thought I would enjoy this kind of porn game but since I've tried the first Pilgrimage, I discovered that it's possible to enjoy monster stuff.

Great start. As always hottest animations, the main girl is incredibly sexy and I really like focus on ass. Hands down the best recommendation for ass men.

I wish this project go well and the developer deserves it! Probably one of the few adult game creators who update at a very fast rate.

10/10

Beautiful game, is still in beta but it already feels like a good start.
The new way to navigate the map is really good, but it gets kind of tricky to move in the map at the start.
And the scenes are really good.
I hope it gets more varren content too.

Extremely promising VN, the first chapter leaves you with some blue balls because >no multiple endings but if the games can keep up the quality of the sex scenes, the story although an excuse, keeps up being easy to follow and at the rate the dev updates the work, this can easily be one of the best western VN, period

The first chapter is, without exaggeration, a great game. What we see in the second:

+ Magnificent 3D graphics and animation (and not only in erotic scenes).
+ The author is constantly developing, improving skills in graphics and gameplay.
+ Good selection of sounds.

- Navigation is not very convenient, it was easier in the first chapter.
- Text in erotic scenes (sometimes it is scanty, sometimes it is not there at all).

So far, there is not much in the game, it is a demo. But everything looks nice. I am sure that it will be a gem. Good luck and success to the author.)
