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

[hvarbo]

That's MISTRESS Olivia to you worm!

I'm sorry Mistress, I'm still on edge from what I had to do in order to get to K1. I mean I can live with killing half the male population there without guilt, but having to leave your shoe dirty will haunt me for years.

I really wish there was another way to get K1, like having someone like Juliette tempt you and giving in resulting in shocks and demotion instead of having to do a bad job. The promotion made me think of the Peter Principle, where people who perform well keep getting promoted until they reach a point of incompetence.

Femdom in KG is artificial construct and fanservice, and only the dominant Kane will have the ultimate victory by winning the Gambit. And a pathetic worm KaneSub with a cage on his dick, kissing heels of sadistic women and taking a strapon up his arse will never be the rightful Master of the Empire. It's as obvious as the change of day and night. Besides, Alexander has made it clear that his Empire can only be claimed by a truly strong-willed, intelligent and tough man who will gnaw his way to the top with his teeth, as Alexander himself once did. And losers have no place here.

We can argue about what the canon ending of the game will be, which will be taken as the basis for the next Tess game (yes, we'll be choosing from several final states of the KG world there, but a global canonical version of how Gambit ended should still be there(imo)... but the fact that the only person who can win in Gambit is the one who surpasses Alexander (in strength, brutality, intelligence, dodginess) is not even up for debate. Which means that it will be KaneDom and Olivia (if we want) who will ascend to the throne, eliminating all other contenders.

If you genuinely believe that the dom paths are the only "canon" endings, the only artificial construct here is your over-inflated ego...

Seriously though, even assuming Tess will pick a "canon ending", and not leave several factors up for interpretation for any potential sequel, (eg do what every single Elder Scrolls game does when it has to deal with multiple endings) you are going out on a massive limb if you assume the cannon ending will be one with a dominant Kane. Even if the "cannon ending" is one where Kane and Olivia worked together and "eliminate all other contenders", it could easily be that the sequel will never reference the kind of relationship they had, OR will explicitly go with one in which Kane submitted and served under Olivia, who was the one who actually eliminated the contenders. (far more likely in my opinion than her going with a dom Kane canon, given that she herself is a dominant woman and she's put Olivia in a far more priviledged position than Kane within the organisation...)

I'm not actually saying Tess will canonize a Kane sub path - I do not have the same kind of hubris you do in order to call what I'm not into fake or "an artificial construct" with no evidence whatsoever, but there are far more paths where Kane is a "pathetic worm that kisses heels" than ones where he gets anywhere close to the level of power you fantasize about. Plus that Veronica has already shown that she can outsmart Alexander, so who's to say Olivia, Alessandra or any of the other sisters won't too? Also:

rightful Master of the Empire. It's as obvious as the change of day and night. Besides, Alexander has made it clear that his Empire can only be claimed by a truly strong-willed, intelligent and tough man who will gnaw his way to the top with his teeth, as Alexander himself once did.

Has it ever occured to you it might be that nobody will fulfill the deranged old geezer's sexist prophecy? Especially with Tess herself being a dominant woman? And that the Empire will have a strong-willed, intelligent and powerful Mistress, not master, winning the gambit, to Alexander's, and apparently very much your, chagrin?

The dom content can be just as fan servicy as the sub routes and, again, just as I said before, Tess is God in her own narrative universe, so as long as she doesn't hint your dom Kane gigachad fantasy is gonna be the cannon ending, then it simply isn't. It will be just one ending out of many, no more nor less valid than any k1 ending with a mutilated to death Kane by Dr. Chastain, Juliette and Samantha, no matter how much this pisses you off...

Keep believing that, you pathetic loser.

 

[Maviarab]

I unironically hope we get an ending where we can burn the the corporation to the ground along with everyone associated with it.

Pretty sure this will happen in some form in the Revolution Ending.

Yeah I can agree with that, a different way other than royally screwing upo would have nice but ultimately guess maybe comes down to time writing, coding, rendering yet another branch that really only ends up in the exact same place. As it is, the 'system' does make sense at least...be an idiot, fuck up, be pathetic...you're heading down the ladder and not up it.

 

[LAKueiJin]

Keep believing that, you pathetic loser.

And keep sniffing your own farts and believing Tess will dedicate this whole game to your orgasms, by canonizing the ending YOU specifically want, buddy!

I'll love those hurt little boy tears when she obviously doesn't do that, but it'd be even more hillarious if she canonizes an ending with Juliette winning the gambit! (99% won't happen, and not even I would like that the most, but your reaction to a canon Juliette x evil Olivia ending would certainly make it fun)

You're acting like a hurt little teenager. Come back when you're older and wiser.

Yeah I'm with you. I might have appeared overly critical with the promotion thing, but that part along with a bit of inconsistencies from when you go from K4 to K5 are the only things I could criticize. The game is honestly amazing, one of the best femdom games I've ever played, and probably the best one that also has a maledom path as well. After having waited for some games forever I tend to not play non completed games and I only started playing this one because I saw season 1 was complete, but I saw myself downloading the next part as soon as I was done.

Gentlemen...don't me raise my voice! Or bring Erica back, she currently tormenting Jake and his 'size', she won't be happy if she has to come back here.

No popcorn was needed. The offended teenager was rude to his elders and ran crying to his room. Let's keep talking.

Yeah I get that, the waits can be agonising at times heh. I'm pretty critical but there really isn;t very much to critisize here at all in this one, it's pretty masterfully done. Of course there are things I wish were different, or prefer would be more appropriate to say, nothing is ever perfect after all but I do think this comes pretty close when it comes to VN stories etc.

At least with this there is plenty to guess, discuss, debate, argue and swoon over/about between the updates hehe.

Then bon appétit.

Hmm, is that a promise? Maybe I wouldn't mind seeing a naked tag-team of you and Erica. And i'm sure I'm not the only one (looking at you, Maviarab). Hell, I'll even allow one of you to sit on my face while the other is riding my ..

Btw Maviarab I asked that question and she said this:

Only question we have asked is about the Olivia/Angelica mudbath fight! lol.

As for what you asked/just showed....that, still not making sense. My K4Sub (game start) is SubK7 at the end of Ep.7 and is locked on being a secret sub. So, according to Tess and the WT, that shouldn't be possible?

This is NOT a Dom/SS path. This is a path where started as K4, a true sub and is now SubK7 in rank (switches you to the dom path automatically and sexually submissive and on the Alessa SS path). The Subk5+ route becomes identical to the Alessa SS path. The walkthrough for Ep.8 suggests a very different track for sub players who rise above K4. So what happens to this already existing (currently rather pointless) path? Or is this path going to merge into Tess' new ideas on subs rising themselves out of the K4 track routes?

All players see this which leads to e6botany2 → leads to some possible paths:
ONE:
if subk5 flag (got rank k5 in episode 5 from sub path) OR alessandra_scale <= 3:
(you can get this if you were submissive to Alessandra during foot
massage on dom path two episodes ago)
THEN: —> subk5 path OPENS → scene go to casubtime then

Possible paths out of this scene just depend on sub (k2 to k4 rank) or dom status
(also includes subk5 path of course)
If k2, k3, or k4 → scene jumps to suboliviajail
if dom path/sub k5 path → scene jumps to domoliviaroom

Once you have your total domthronepoints from all three
departments, you can then figure out how Kane will be graded for
0.7. It also depends if Kane is on subk5 path or pure dom path.
Sub K5 rank grading outcomes:
If domthronepoints 7 or more: Kane receives subk7 = True
