I tried the walkthrough on page 217 and it was amazing. I followed everything step by step, but I can't get the Lauren scene. After I go with Imre to get a tattoo; it goes to Riley yelling at me for stealing her picture; then to Lindsey wanting to workout; then to going to bed and the Aubrey waking me up to meet her sister. It skipped right over the Lauren scene completely. What did I do wrong?
Everything is messed up because of the new guy Charli. Dropped the game because it's pointless now. Sorry but I can't support your patreon anymore because of this BS.

gamingdevil800 I might have found a mistake in your pdf guide...

Oh no, the guy who joined 3 hours ago is upset...
I think the game's writing has been going downhill for a while and the personality alignment it's poorly implemented. That being said Emily's reaction could make sense if she's buying Charli's lies, they don't have to be true.

I'm still leaning towards Charli, but this is an interesting theory and possible. It's like Charli could be a bit of a red herring on that front.
Does she only go to see that doctor because of the MC or is it a situation where she goes regardless and the only question is whether we're there or not? I'm genuinely asking because I only did the Emily route once and I don't remember.

No way to answer that really, if you ignore her its like she basically doesnt exist in the storyline and you have no idea what shes doing. Hell even in her storyline you have no idea what she's doing. Im going to use occam's razor and assume that without an injured MC to take to the hospital the simplest explanation is that she has no reason to go there without him.
My issue with Charli is that he's an extremely poor character ham-fisted into the story to create a sense of conflict. This dude comes completely out of nowhere with the sole intention of ruining your relationships and tarnishing your rep without rhyme or reason.
This compounds on other issues I have with the game. I fail to even see where the Hero's Journey is in this story. Is this supposed to be about MC becoming Fight King? Is the entire VN a slice of life without a clear objective? The dev can clearly produce content but guy either needs to attend some writing workshops or commission someone else to write the story. The story is all over the place and lacks any sense of direction imo.

My take on Charli initially was that he was a plant (kind of convenient that he is off-campus), hired by Mr Rose to get back at the MC for interfering with his breakup with Lorraine. But that only makes sense in the Wolves route, and even then really only if you pursue Lorraine. But he does show up in the corridor after Penelope's hearing for seemingly no other reason than blatant foreshadowing.

I had to update the guide as the developers totally removed the Lauren sex scene in Act 3 for those who are seeking "friends with benefits". You only seem to get the scene now if you're Lauren's BF and didn't sleep with Aubrey on the Plane. I assume we'll get a different scene later on for those who are more friends with Lauren though.
Also I chose the kiss option as I was trying to avoid things getting too serious too fast as if Lauren is too serious about your relationship then she'll be angry when she catches you having sex on the plane.
I haven't really used the walkthrough, but if you were following the guide written for version 12.0.2 and you're playing 12.1.1, your mistake was probably hooking up with Aubrey on the plane. As of 12.1.1, the Paris date with Lauren doesn't trigger if you followed Aubrey.
If you want to see the date scene, open a previous save before following Aubrey to the bathroom, then play as normal. I.e. Lauren doesn't necessarily have to be your girlfriend.
Alternatively, if you're already in the scene where Riley is yelling at you, you can tell the game that you didn't hook up with Aubrey by using the console. Open the console with Shift+O and type the following command:
Python:
v11_aubrey_sex = FalseIt's not mandatory to focus solely on Lauren for the scene to trigger. As of 12.1.1 update, the key is not hooking up with Aubrey on the plane. There are still two options for triggering the scene:
- MC is in relationship with Lauren (variable
laurenrsshould equalTrue) AND didn't have sex with Aubrey on the plane (v11_aubrey_sexshould equalFalse) - MC kissed Lauren in the very beginning of the game in the park (
v1_kissLaurenshould equal True) AND again didn't have sex on the plane.
I don't think there ever will be any new scene for "friend with benefits". I think locking the scene out from those who hooked up with Aubrey was an unintentional consequence of fixing some dialogue inconsistencies that reusing a variable
laurenmad from Act 1 in Act 3 caused.After the flight, if MC is not in relationship with Lauren, but she caught MC and Aubrey on the plane, and Lauren was kissed in the Act 1 either a) in the park, b) during the movie date or c) on the beach, she will say she "was hoping maybe we could explore some things... together". Notably she says that even if MC answered that he would later like to officially date Aubrey.
Now, if we skip to Paris, only the park kiss will count towards triggering the date scene. This can only be explained by programming error or poor writing.

Thanks for the extra info, I've updated the guide now and added a short description on (miss able scenes) on the first page. Didn't expect them developers to completely change a scene after releasing the episode!
Hello there:
First of all I want to congratulate the creator of this game, I really like the consequences that he has because they are very very important, I have played it several times and each time I discover something new. I would also like to ask 2 questions:
For example, I recently discovered that you could have sex with Amber, and today I started again and I don't remember how, can someone help me?
The other question is if you can have something with Pénelope, can you? or not yet?
Thank you.

Very similar to my thoughts. There's something a little off about how much he hates the MC and how much he want's to take him down for someone he just met when there's other targets like Imre who are more misogynistic and treat women worse. He may be someone's relative or just a major dick
.I figure we'll get a chance to shove his head in the toilet and flush at some point in the story, or one of the girls will do it for us, he's already pissed off two of them pretty bad (probably depending on how you played things).
Could be he has a secret crush on the MC and is going full yandere on him trying to cut him off from everyone and going to kidnap him and lock him in a mountain chalet and profess his undying love for him and try and convince him to run away with him to Acapulco

Another potential clue related back to that - the only one of the MC's circle that initially knows Charli and the one that introduces him is Nora. And of course Nora is
So that could conceivably tie into some motivation for Mr Rose separate from revenge for the MC pursuing Lorraine.
