VN Ren'Py Intertwined [v0.13.2] [Nyx]

[LSC82]

To bad school started back up for them.... and if I recall wasn't there a devlog right before the update saying next update would only cover 1 day? as She doesn't want to do another crazy 7200 update cycle. So might be awhile till we get that chance. So im hoping it is sooner but could be a good chance for some other romantic moment. Like to make thing official and having that conversation. Especially since the MC finally said he likes her on the beach date. Tho I am kind of hoping when that happens the MC recreates the backyard scene from 5 years ago I think that would be more meaningful and romantic.

Maybe she'll compromise and do 2, and organize a little so everything isn't scheduled for the same day, same hour.
This update must've been rough with day 1 Erynn edition, Val edition, day 2 Nikki, Cara(plus Nathan section), Nyx essentially had to do these 2 days twice, basically 4 days, though you only play 2 at a given save.

Day 3 is more streamlined, but still has the split over which Monroe sister you got.

But you are correct that it will take sometime until they can take this trip and be together for an even more extended period alone with each other... specially given that next weekend looks very fucking busy already, Monroes will have an event, Nikki/Cara are coming in...

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

I have conflicting thoughts on this whole Erryn/Ethan thing. I'm not actually sure he even does want her anymore (romantically). I think he now sees her somewhat as damaged goods. Remember, he pushing harder and harder for her to 'do more' with his/her 'clients'....

Not the kind of thing you'd want your future gf doing is it now...unless he also has some specific kinks....

He def does otherwise he wouldn't have gotten jealous of her time with her father last update

Wish they wrap this story up. Still got the killer arc ( Brooke). Should I talk to my daddy arc. Is Nicole pregnant arc.( Hope) Deal with Zach arc. Park ass whooper arc. So many mini stories. The most important arc getting Melissas ass arc.

I edited my post for more clarification. I think he just wants to own her....

for sure I forget is Nathan coming in the same week with Mira or is it the week after. cause man if he comes in the same week that weekend is gonna be alot more full then the one we just had.

I don't think he's scheduled for next week, just "in the future".

But yeah Alexis wants to throw a costume party, Enzo a barbecue, Nikki/Cara are coming, Erynn to go again to the beach and "future" trip, Iris and Brooke want to do bike rides(from the previous episode), and we will also have a race on the weekend(the MC will have lots of supporters with all his GFs watching lol).

It's too much, i'm tired just writing it, it will be great when they come but Nyx is putting too much stuff on her plate, it can push her to the breaking point.
Scenes are also getting longer in terms of time we spend focussed on a single character.

Yeah I mean the selfish bastards side of me like the longer time with a focus on a single character. But Nyx's isn't a robot either. Hopefully the Enzo BBQ at least is a shorter scene otherwise yeah that's gonna be alot for her for another weekend.

Don't forget MC tentatively planned another Date with Val as well. I think it was "next week" right before she runs into Ethan (if Val intervened).

now here is a question is it possible to be on Val's path and have the beach date with her without her helping us instead of John. Cause we know what happens if she kicks Ethan and crews ass... but if you can do that save without it and still be on her path might be worth making a 2nd solo path save for her

It's great when it's your favorite , it's a "waste" when it's someone you dislike.

I think the Enzo BBQ and the costume party have potential, specially if other characters get invited... i like big scenes with multiple characters, playing them against one another.
Alexis brings Erynn, Iris.
Layla, Elena, Val(?)

Maybe Emily gets invited by Adriana...

And then there's Nikki who is coming to town believing she has GF status, how do we go to a party and not bring our GF?

Still weird to have 2 of these multi character events being setup simultaneously(as i said Nyx needs to manage resources).

Yeah, sorry i had to miss one... i'm only one guy lol.

I'd have to check the code again. For her to intervene you need 13 Val points. If you are below the required threshold at Training Camp, it won't trigger the Underwear or Lick scenes... which I *think* are required towards the romance path. I'm not 100% on this one, as I haven't opened it up that far back recently.

If she is below 13 and doesn't intervene, I don't think you can officially start a relationship. Again, not 100% as I'd have to check the code. But if she's not there, you won't have the opportunity to kiss her afterwards. I *think* that kiss is one of the critical moments.

 

[Dessolos]

haha I think this games makes me want to be a monster. I just caught up on all my saves finally ( minus Mel doubt it's worth making yet) . Did the Elena save last and it made me want to to fool around with Mira and maybe Nikki or Cara for super explosive drama when we are able to get in a relationship with Elena.

Layla, Elena, Val(?)

If MC is not on Layla or Lexi's path, you don't end up having dinner with their family so aren't directly invited.

If MC is still one of Layla's best friends, she'd likely invite him.
On Erynn's path, she'd probably want MC to go as well. Unless Lexi hates MC?
On Elena's path, would Layla want MC there if she hates him?
If Layla or Lexi don't like the MC, there'd be problems getting him invited I think.
On Val, Nikki, or Cara's path, would it be easy to sell MC getting an invite? Might depend on Layla's points.
If MC is involved with Tori, would Layla want him there?

There's a lot of states and variables to account for before the BBQ or Party could happen.

Yeah, sorry i had to miss one... i'm only one guy lol.

Absolutely unacceptable! Mistakes can be tolerated, but not for something as great as Val's new path... (joking if it was missed).

I think in "a friends with Layla" an invitation would be fair... Santiago will be there, maybe other characters(as we are speculating), there's stuff for everybody, not just people with Alexis/Layla relationships.
This seems to be a juicy scene with lots of potential and it would be a shame to lock it behind specific relationships.

Alexis costume party on the other hand... probably no invite(it's doubtful there even is one without the MC in her life).

If you blew your friendship with Layla(no matter which way, Elena, playing Alexis vs Layla)... than i guess you miss the invitation.
Tori is not a factor i think, no one is aware that they are banging(maybe Val is...) and we don't have to take her with us, unlike say Nikki who can say "i'm your GF, why are you going into this party without me?"


There are ways to blow your friendship with Layla, play her vs her sister, help dumbass Zach in spying, and dump her for Elena, other than these scenarios we are good to go(as far as Layla is concerned).

Alexis could block you if... play her vs Layla(we already were screwed here, because both sisters hate our guts) or just dumped her this update(for Val), here she's sad and hurt and might not want to interact with you(maybe Layla invites you by mistake without consulting lol).
In the "dated her for a while but stopped early" she seems be finally ok with losing you and how things turned out(i wonder if that's because she's getting her TLC from a different guy?), shares the table with you on the Layla save, no reason she should block an invite here.


And again Nyx needs to think before hinting at all these future events so she doesn't overwork herself on loooong scene that just a few will witness.

Absolutely unacceptable! Mistakes can be tolerated, but not for something as great as Val's new path... (joking if it was missed).

LOL, i apologize, i'll do better in the future

Sure, like many a mom/sister in many a VN, she has been the Golden Chalice, the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenent...but realistically...how long can Nyx really keep dragging her out for?

Ironic that in most games that have Mom/Sisters the "childhood friend" is usually the character who throws pussy at you right away under the excuse that she always had a thing for you.
Here in the absence of mom(well, mom is not on the menu) and sisters, the childhood friend has been elevated to the ultimate prize

And yeah, i wonder how much longer Nyx can dance around the issue, they seem increasingly comfortable and trusting(and hornier) around each other... so what are they waiting for? Make a move
I know the standard way to handle this is "save the princess" then get rewarded, but maybe Nyx needs to buck the trend.

Specially so if she means to keep Ethan around.

 

[th3pun1sh3r]

no compressed ?

 

[M I N T]

The biggest one yet, and the best one (personal opinion).
Lots of good development for several characters, sets up lots of future events.

Hell yeah, just saw the update. I am VERY excited

 

[ToursEiffelNeymar]

I wish you wouldn't lose points for riling up Ethan by lying about having had sex with Erynn and then knocking him out cold, taking his phone

 

[jadepaladin]

Dessolos, you asked but I don't think it's possible to have John help then also get a Val romance.
Val helping with Ethan is 13 points and in the end of ep 9. The only points for Val after that is 2 for calling her afterwards to check on her and 4 for running in the park with her and Layla, focusing on her in each choice. The mall photo shoot with Val is immediately after that at 19 points. I consider that the start of the Val romance. If you don't have 13 for her to intervene, I don't see how you get the 19 to get the mall photos. The next points for Val aren't until Ep 12 and there's no positive points. Either the Alexis/Val split if you're dating both or the head scratches scene if you are only with Val. Next for Val would be Ep13, beach date but I don't know the point total for that.

Val's points always seem to be incredibly tight. There's the daydreaming thing early on that needs 6 so it required you to pick up all the points along her way so far but then it doesn't do anything special over the other good choice (her nosering).

 

[cooldevo]

What points are you losing? Pulled up the code, and I don't see any relationship changes... unless I'm really blind.

• If Val intervened at the Ethan event, Ethan threatens her. But no variable changes. Whoops, this is only on the punching scene.
• If you lie about sleeping with Erynn, there are 3 scenes and 11 lines of text, before it jumps to the end. I don't see any relationship changes at all.

Just checked the gallery and mira has two scenes . Can anyone who has unlocked the second one , tell me what it is ?
