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

[Stan5851]

L7Bear, I agree with what kinkyshin and Maviarab wrote, I will only add that in the case of Tess - hidden meanings and hints in the dialog of characters - this is a separate charm of the game and an exquisite pleasure for all those players who like to solve riddles and by subtle hints and reservations to restore the picture of the world, which is still hidden from us...And I can say that we, the players, have succeeded in many ways in this, revealing what the average player, who enters this thread only at the time of release of updates, generally unknown.

And these mind games, these brainstorms give many of us great pleasure, we have new theories, assumptions, we compare facts, and it is really a very interesting process. Moreover, I will say that quite a few of these discussions are conducted outside this thread (but within this forum), otherwise you would go crazy (lol ) to see all our theories, assumptions and analytics in their, let's say, “raw” form..

Tess is very meticulous about every line of dialog she writes (perhaps her literary background, where attention to detail and nuance is an essential necessity for any self-respecting writer has an impact).. And what's written in these dialogs really matters...It's not just text for text's sake. So don't deprive people of the pleasure of an intellectual thought process that is interesting in its own right. Have a nice day and enjoy the game..

I guess it makes sense the kane descendant cant bang astrid since veronica is a possible Li.

One of the origins is of KG Background, the others are not

True, but if Im reading that right, that's the only origin that cant get with Astrid's old ass

The Grym Gudinna™ advertising Tremmi again .

I think I've seen their ads on at least 8 different Patreons, these guys are like those famous gambling sites that pop up everywhere and seem to have endless funds to advertise.

OK ma'am, you win, let's try it later .

At least the DAO influence stops at origin stories. Any more franchises get tossed in this melting pot and we'll have a Dr. Pepper problem, so many ingredients that one doesn't stand out.

Almost spit my coffee out at "Luke Skywalker (non-Disney version)." The fact we now have to make a distinction shows just how far SW has fallen. Also as long as you have an amalgamation of John Wick and Commander Shepard, you don't need the rest of the names on that list. Just make sure the MC has a dog.

Is it just me that I find it hard to understand what Anais writes?

She writes unique… I’m use to it so I can understand her heh

 

[PickerLewd]

Yes, she writes very little compared to the bible that Tess writes every time she explains something, but I don't know if it's the shortness of her writing or the fact that she doesn't use commas, but I had to read her last post in the FAQ about four times .

Not a knock on Anais but I think they tend to be more technical or design focused and generally people like that write differently because it's like a stream of consciousness thing. I think Tess/Anais make a good team because Tess brings the writing and Anais brings the technical aspects and I'm sure they have helped either improve in what they are lacking.

Sometimes I slip into that too. I'll go back and re-read something I wrote to see if it makes sense on a pass through. Not 100% of the time though, otherwise I'd get nothing done.

Edit- Also we all know that if Tess doesn't go in super detail about something, she'll get asked to clarify it later.

And yet answer in a very sly and veiled way that will keep you wondering for a long time what her answer meant, and whether it meant yes or no, lol. So Tess has a great skill at answering a question and leaving the questioner even more perplexed than they were before (not always, but it happens and everyone who has interacted with her knows it, hehe)..

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

I understood Anais, they were talking in mass effect lingo. Hope that doesn't keep up though

So, I'll have to behave and act normal and stuff? Will we at least get to blow things up? I like blowing things up...

Damn. Every time I read the phrase "Karlsson's Gambit" the first association that comes to mind is Morrison's Hotel (by Doors)
(I wonder if the locals listen to this music? Yeah, damn, it sounds like "I'm old, I'm very old, I'm a super-star!" in russian я стар, я очень стар, я супер-стар. Ummm... Anyway, that's a Russian joke - it doesn't work here, haha...)
