VN Ren'Py Karlsson's Gambit [v0.8.2A Final] [Grym Gudinna Games]

[Innocience]

Do you guys have any preferred personality archetypes in mind when piloting the little brother?

I'm undecided on what I want his personality to be. Since we're 5 episodes in and he hasn't played a major role yet nor had major scenes I'm sceptical we'll have much agency about his fate from his perspective.

That being said my personal favorite story developement would be to see him get used and abused as a pawn that pledges allegiance to an opposing faction and him becoming an unwitting, myopic opponent of his siblings. There's a lot of potential for the siblings to then either stand by their brother despite that or to callously push him aside.
A clueless, naive, good-natured personality for the brother would go along nicely with that. But from the short interaction with Elena we've also seen he might not end up as a completely clueless kid.

I must admit I like Seth's little romance with Kiyomi If he leaves the gambit healed with a kick-ass gf he would be the winning sibling by far

On that subject to be honest if there's one thing that I don't like in the game is how for example the MC has an horse dick while the brother has the micro dick.
It somehow already marks them and limits their potential scenes\roleplay, a normal size for both would have been better

Veronica can change that for both of them!

Do you guys have any preferred personality archetypes in mind when piloting the little brother? I usually know what I want when guiding the other two siblings, but I'm really not sure what kind of character I want him to be. "Clueless kid" is an obvious choice, but since we do get choices when piloting him, I wonder what kind of other personality type would fit well in the story.

I’m still a bit perplexed by Seth as how much of a player he is is not clear to me. Assuming he is a son of Callista then he has value to the gambit for his genes if nothing else. I like the idea of an underdog triumph for him, perhaps in a scenario where other characters have fallen by the wayside. I can think of one example from history where a man of the right bloodline was overlooked because of his physical weakness in times of bloodier intrigue, only to end up ruling. I am unsure of how much say we will get over his actions but if it’s a lot, I’d like to play him his as smart, keeping below the radar and cultivating the loyalty of Kiyomi as ideally others are taken out of play.

Exactly! The sillier side of me wonders how things might of gone had the brothers had the reverse of their equipment. Seth would be be practically tripping over his while undressing Kane might be like unwrapping a very disappointing present!

If he has any chance at all I think Kiyomi will be crucial.

I'm conflicted. One side of me wants an underdog triumph, perhaps with Seth as the last player standing. However, my Evil Dom Olivia fan side wants both the brothers completely under her control (along with everyone else!). Like you, I'm unsure of how much agency there will be for Seth and potentially he's mostly there to create moral choices for Olivia and Kane.

Don't forget to come up for air now and then. We all appreciate the effort you are putting into this and are excited for 0.6!
And thanks for showing that Seth doesn't always have to suffer.

 

[Spfjolietjake]

I personally want Seth to suffer at the hands of my dom/evil duo

The joy of this game is we can have it both ways.

Yes, this game is very much the gift that keeps on giving like that. I really appreciate the effort that goes into making all the different pathways so fun and interesting to play. Tess has so far pulled off quite the juggling act!

Kane and Juliet will rule bend the knee and pledge yourselves to the real it couple of the Karlsson world

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

The way I speculate, Callista traded one son to save the other. She kept all her kids off the radar until seth actually needed to be healed with the karlsson technology. Once that became necessary, she returned and gave up the location to her other kids.
Which would also work to explain why hes not tortured as bad as other participants. He's there to be healed.

Don't forget Katsumi has him targeted for her games.

In that world, I still think Kane gets to do whatever Juliette tells him to!

They need allies to win.No one likes Juliette.
