VN Ren'Py Isabella - Chasing Shadows [Ch. 4.3] [badtimetales]

[prpa]

I forget to use mine 1/2 of the time lol been a little better at using them lately but still never ran out of them before

I'm addicted to giving reactions, that's actually one of the reasons I donated (to increase the reaction limit).

Also, to stay on topic, I can't wait for more Isabella content. Alex is nice, but Isabella is out of this world.

 

[badtimetales]

We've had a lot of Alex development and scenes, I can only develop her relationship from now.
Val and Isa on the other hand... there's a lot to do.

 

[AlexMpog]

Yeah, Isa lovers will get some more character development (which I'm way behind with), Alex lovers though...
Won't be too happy. *sigh*
Val has a great scene, for the players on the notAlex route.

Val really grew on me after my last playthrough. I remember starting playing the game because of Isa long ago, lately though a few times I caught myself looking forward to some sweet Val content too

 

[Dessolos]

Maybe, probably too late for me to change my mind though. I mean, I might have a better opinion about Alex's friend but that's about the upper limit now I think.

I mean I don't expect anything less than that from you. Since from what ive seen of you in other threads you come across as a little to hard / overly critical of LI in my opinion as well very picky about who you like but that is just me. It would take a miracle for you to change your mind about something one you decide you like a certain LI over another I feel. Since I notice you also don't like very many LI in general.

lol exactly same for me but I still perfer Isa over Val any day of the week. But now I want a Val and Isa threesome and im not one that likes threesomes. just thinking about picking Val over Isa makes me go why not both

Yeah, unfortunately that's the same for me.

Val was never meant as a (single) LI, but yeah. She grew on me.
I do understand why people don't like her, colleague, betrayal and so on.
well, she's there. And thanks (or for me hate) the paths.

There are not many games that changed my mind, but a few.
And I think that I did a good show on the "breaking up" scene. Something some people hate me for.

In the end it's personal preference and my goal is to make every path as good as possible.
I can't hide what's my preference is, but that doesn't mean I will neglect the others.

oh, don't get me wrong, Isa is still my undeniable favourite here, it's just that I found myself thinking about Val a lot too, last time I played.
never thought about an Isa+Val 3some, but not that you mention it...

Yeah, unfortunately that's the same for me.

and fortunately for us
yeah, I remember that only Isa and Alex were supposed to be LIs, it's great that you gave Val a chance too despite all the additional work

 

[jadepaladin]

Val

Who?

Sorry, I had to. I know who she is.

im glad for it. Cause my first time initially I thought Val was kind of just there for Sex and that much else other than maybe helping in the story here and there. But now I actually like her alot. She went from feeling like a character mostly for sex to one I want to get to know.

All of that tracks. TBH, that's how I am ITRW as well. Not just women. I choose my people carefully, rarely change my mind and I keep the circle small on purpose. I'm very loyal and keeping the circle small means that there are fewer instances when I'm caught in the middle and I have more time / am more available for the people inside.

That's cool. I don't mind - just when you said that Alex fans wouldn't be happy, I didn't know if she just didn't get much screen time or if something terrible was about to happen. (Not happy covers a broad range).

Nothing bad will happen, au contraire

The usual story scenes and some sex scenes if you are on her path, but she'll be not there after that.

 

[Pixillin']

If they would have a fight, they would slap your ass if you interfere

Ok - put it this way - if they had a fight and Alex stormed off I'd go after her. If they had a fight and Isa stormed off, I would not.

That might be hard, because if it's just MC and Isa - I won't be very good company. She's Alex's friend.

 

[badtimetales]

Val won't have any relationship opinions with Alex or Isa.
That really wouldn't fit, neither with Alex or Isa. "Hey Alex, that's my killed girlfriend boss, I would like to fuck her and you and probably Isa too".
You know what they say about petite girls, knifes and dicks? (Maybe I made this up, but ask Alex )
It's difficult enough to make Alex accept Isa, not bringing Val in there.

So she's a single LI only.

It's for a limited time.

A. Alex has some things to deal with.
B. MC needs some time without Alex provoking him and getting closer with Isa.

She'll be back, doesn't matter if you are with her or not.

That's fine ... I just picture a lot of sitting in silence followed by maybe "So ........... wanna watch some TV?"

just joking around
I'm not really a 3-some man, Des knows it, I prefer solo routes, still haven't decided about Isa+Alex path, only monogamy so far.
also fucking Alex's sister and her new found friend would be too much indeed

 

[badtimetales]

The update is about story progression and Isa character building/background story.

 

[jadepaladin]

I plan on doing a Val playthrough after the story is fully done.

It's not BTT's fault but she feels like a side character in the story and I'd rather my initial playthrough be fully focused on Alex and Isa. That combined with who Val was in relation to Jennifer...and look, I'm no beacon of morality or anything, but the first time she made a pass I was like, "Really?" So I'll do it but it won't be anytime soon and it'll mostly be out of a desire to 100% the content of a developer I like.

 

[jadepaladin]

This reminds me of being forced to interact with some of my ex-wife's friends irl. A whole lot of "..." and some "....." with a side of "........."

I'll play the game in this order: Alex solo, Alex-Isa, Isa solo, Val solo (the last two probably once the game is finished, still haven't done the Alex breakup scene yet )
