VN Ren'Py Karlsson's Gambit [v0.8.31 TestB] [Grym Gudinna Games]

Miss Tess being Sus HAHAHA and we do lick the shoes of Cynthia if you count that….

Im pretty sure you meant we (sub players)

LOL YEAH, I’ll be more specific next time hahaha..

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

That would be strange, wouldn't it be? His father was the best friend of Alexander, founder and a DeKock. The complete Story is written about the facts, that you are the key for the Gambit and the hope to stabilize the Karlssons Corporation, because your Mother and Father.

Does Kane being a decock really stabilize anything? Seth is a backup and we know he's not one. If I had to guess what the original storyline was, I'd assume that there was a love square sitch going on between Alexander Callista Cole and Cynthia ( too many c names ack).

.
Never played the sub path Im assuming that happens when the decocks first arrive and cynthia requests a meeting with Kane?

I guess there could be another adoption scenario. Cynthia does imply that her son inherits everything.

 

[Maviarab]

Yeah, that's what I think too, and on the face of it, it should be, but....
Tess' phrase from ep 7 walk, where she explicitly says that all those Dom players who refuse to participate in the game show will lose a big chunk of content, also falls into the same box.

But all of this leads me to another thought. So far in her femdom-oriented game, Tess has behaved with the utmost respect for Dom players by not forcing KaneDom to participate in actions that go against his moral principles. ... I mean, up until now, GoodDomKane has always had room to maneuver, and we've always been able to get the highest possible rank. That's how it's been in past episodes as well. I.e. Tess has systematically allowed GoodDomKane to maximize his success. Yes, in some ways it's even easier for Evil Kane to do that, but still.

Somehow it seems to me that Tess should have foreseen the obvious fact that quite a lot of GoodDOm players may not want to deprive themselves of new game content and, stepping on the throat of their own song, will go to war with windmills, or rather, with sadists and murderers who organize this show and kill in it. So before I send my evil DomKane to the show, I'm still going to give Kane from the "light side of the force" a chance. And maybe good Kane can get his well-deserved K10 rank.

In the case that Tess doesn't give such an opportunity, it means (I'm pretty sure of this) there will be an opportunity for good KaneDom to get K10 just by being able to competently bring up his wpod2. But it would make more sense to not deprive players of content (because there are some who don't play Evil Dom Kane at all) and the opportunity to get K10. Otherwise, this all comes into inevitable contradiction with the order of things before.

And I will say this, there will be quite a few players who will not be too happy with the only opportunity to get K10 by killing as many people as possible. Tess is a smart woman and she should know that. But we'll see.

Exactly my thoughts and really hope it does go this way to really differentiate the choices/paths.

Just like to say thanks to both you and Stan!! (Don’t know how to tag people on here my apologies lol) I do agree on the Hunting with Bows and Arrows/guns aspect since we’ve saw teases of them before with the gun producing electrical bullets (Stuns) during that farm sequence!… it just really hurts my brain that not only are we thinking about the gameshow, but also the sponsorship that we have seen/not seen yet, the factions you can join and or possibly other routes with haven’t seen yet… hahaha it’s crazy how much stuff is in here even tho we haven’t even got deeper into it yet!..

To tag someone, simply type @theirname and a scroll down menu will appear as you start typing.

I don't understand why you guys think Good doom Kane shouldn't be on the game show. I think there is a choice for Kane to either sit and watch or participate directly, and thanks to that he was able to save the lives of pod 4 or more. This is Hunting Games On God Valley. Good Kane will be Kuma , bad Kane will be Garling Figarland




In sub path, Jake's survival pretty much will depend on pod points, zack on zack' points...

Why would a good kane willingly participate in murdering people?

Sorry...but despite all your capitals...if you really can't figure that one out I wonder....

As for saving lives, well, for me personally (won't speak for anyone else)...playing it as I would behave myself, if this shit was real...I'm at a stage (at K9) where honestly, as much as I may like certain people, they are never going to rise, always going to be a slave and thinking logically, time to move on and look after yourself.

Well one of the founders was a DeKock and without the lead of Alexander and with a banned Cole, the Corporation is threated by a hostile takeover. It depends how the Gambit ends.

i doubt it, because Callista left Alexander, because of cheating. Callista and Cynthia were close friends and Cole is her brother, i can't see Tess writing such a thing.

Would you please read this Post, again and please explain me how Kane will save so many people with Katsumi as the Game Show Host. A Z1 Rank against a K9 rank. Maybe you get Olivias help a Z3 Rank, but there are still atleast 6 Z4 Rank, who all will just watch, how you ruin their Game Show?!

Saw your answer to late and just a reminder that in one scenario they 'll rise and fight, but not in game show, where you have zero power established.

Who knows, also this could be a golden opportunity for Alessandra to create a perfect accident to kill 1 or 2 sisters. Kane save their ass, for the first time in their lives, they experienced a near-death experience. Game show force to ending early.
Furthermore, if Kane has revolutionary flag, he will become even more determined to burn down Karlsson

Yes!

We know that the game show won't end early, because than you wouldn't miss a huge part of Episode 8 (Which you get warned about by Dev).

I don't believe in any kind of revolution in the 8 series. It's a very specific path, and also, imo, it's too early for that. But your idea of Alessandra deciding to fake an accident with one of her sisters right during the game show, and KaneDom deciding to disrupt her plans and save her (them) I definitely like. It could have worked and given Kane their eternal gratitude and extra votes of support. But that's also rather exceptional, and I'm pretty sure there won't be an early end to the game show. So we have to count on something else.

If they were threatened by a hostile takeover, delilah wouldn't be working there.

Yea I doubt it as well just spitballing. However under the scenario I hypothesized Cole wouldn't be the brother. Two women fighting and splitting over a man would work. Im like you, I doubt it, but there are scenarios that work without Cole being cynthia's brother

 

[DoverDad]

All the people complaining about missing content will now know how evil/ good Dom players feel when we miss content like the party for Oliver when we only got something like three screens. we were even told by Karlsson to make sure she had a good time how can we do that if we can't even go to the fucking party what we got in place was a train screen with Sam and a new chick we hadn't met before correct me if I'm wrong on that much fun right don't even get me started on the w2 pod
the only thing I liked was the chucking screen with Thad oh and the other three some with Doc and the other chick can't remember their names

 

[vongoladex]

Look, the most important thing about a game show is entertainment. I read alot of mangas about rich people creating alot sick games for poor people who can't pay off huge debts. What all mangas have in common is: rules. Rules that cannot be broken or changed. No one wants to see the participants completely lose their will to live when no matter what they doing they'll die, that is not entertainment. Rules creates hope or at least false hope for those involved in trying to fight for survival, and that entertainment. Kane can bend some rules to save ppl and no one can object him. Those rick bastards are evil, but they still have public images to maintain. They want to be respected or feared or both. And who will respect a whiny loser who have to change the rules to win/kill against lowly slaves?

Second, rich people like to bet, and in Karlsson there are billions factions infighting. Enjoy watching slaves suffer? How about watching someone you hate lose bets and become bitter? Even better.

 

[Filarion]

This game is top notch in every way.
Really no need for complains from any side.
Game developer created meaningful choices that are making a big impact and due to that many possible scenes/paths.
You can't expect every path to be always fully updated.
Just look at progress of some games with only 1 path and how slow updates are coming even there.
They have life too and real life stuff happening, we should just enjoy at amazing games creators are making.

Yea there's no reason to plan olivias party, you don't get to see it and you lose one bro/sis point .

 

[Don Sucio]

Im assuming she made that scene before she knew who his father was or she changed his father cuz it fit better with the story. That'll likely be the last time those two fuck

That would make sense, and this can affect the mind of kane and Dellilah, i mean, all of us would be confused and dizzy if we fuck someone and after we discover she is our cousin ... When the others girls know about Kane and Dellilah it´s probably some make fun of them, others maybe don´t bother at all ( is a sadist and distopic world so not big deal for many people there). It will be interesting see the reaction of the npc´s.

I don´t know if Tess speaks about incest in all the categories, for example there are countries where the incest is only between brothers and others family members not count like incest, maybe Tess can go with this "empty legal" for explain the scene. Or maybe she has changed her mind about this theme ( not probably but i would like it...)

The more logic answer is what you say here, when they know about their relation they will stop, but i need to say i would love more interactions between them

 

[Maviarab]

I would say given Tess' stance....given the story is/was already written a while ago....that the actual logical explanation is (and given the vast array of secrets, misinformation and surprises in this game with character revelations)...they are not siblings.

Seriously, I love conspiricy theories and wild speculation as much as the next guy...but often the simplest solution is the easiest overlooked. Maybe I have forgotten something...but we actually have zero facts about them...why do we know Deliliah is Cynthia's daughter? Just because they appear to be? Just because Cynthia makes assumption to said effect? That automatically makes us siblings now? I thought Nadia was supposedly our sister? Olivia isn't Callisto's daughter...why should we assume Delilah is Cynthia's?

I don't recall seeing any hard, fast facts about who is or isn't our sibling etc...even our father at this point in time..is still somewhat up for debate.

 

[Cirelc]

Yea there's no reason to plan olivias party, you don't get to see it and you lose one bro/sis point .

Well if you are interested in a short Hyori action, but i get your point and i never plan the party either. The Difference is 1 SisTeam and 2 SisBro Points. And we Dom player's need those SisTeam points.....
