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

[Stan5851]

One can never have enough of Alessa, that's just the truth of the world. I doubt we'll get more scenes with her at least until ep.9 though, hopefully it will be a full on harem experience, with Celeste, Sam and Patricia (ugh!).

I don't know about Sam and Pat, but we know for sure (from Tess' own words) that Phoebe (+ possibly someone else) will be in the harem.

The Alessandra/Celeste/Phoebe harem path (my original narrative) may be tweaked and even expanded.

As for Sam, no argument, she's a very hot bitch, but she has an extremely high level of sadism, and I think she'll stay in Jules' tentative “camp”. Although I wouldn't mind poaching her into Kane's future harem.

As for the replay gallery. Considering Sancho1969 hasn't been on the forum (I hope he's okay) since as late as June 28, this could be a problem..I'm not a dev, but I don't think creating a game gallery is some prohibitive level of difficulty. After all, Tess could delegate this task to someone on her team (or outsource it).

Oh, fuck yes! That's great news for a Phoebe fan like me!
I kinda assumed that Sam could be part of both harems because of the scene in the swimming pool - the dynamic between Sam and Alessa was quite a familiar one, like she is more than just another employer.

Could one of the Patreons pls share yesterdays post here.

Great game so far. Have a couple of different saves already.

Just wondering if there's going to be a revenge kind of path. One where MC is dom but still at K4 and rejecting all relationships where he is going to be somebody's bitch, but in the end he can rise and get revenge on all the women that treated him like trash. That would be cool

Unfortunately no, there will not be a pure revenge path because it is not designed that way.

If you play the 'Dom' path from K5 onwards, you can probably end up destroying almost all of them, but it doesn't feel like pure revenge because in that path, even though you're still a slave, they treat you pretty well from my point of view, it's like Kane being forced to be in the facility but living like a prince from K7 onwards, even with some luxury.

From K4 and down there could be some revenge, but the game only lets you resist at the beginning until chapter 3, I think I remember, then Kane accepts almost everything as a true sub without complaining, so he gets such a big brain wash that there will be no such revenge from K4 and down (sub path).

I don't know what goes on in the secret sub path, but I don't think there's a path where they treat you badly but let you 'resist' without humiliating you and without joining them until the opportunity of revenge presents itself .

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

there is a revolution happening which could cont as revenge but Im not sure if k4 and below is privvy to that.

 

[Rocket007!]

Is the Mc's brother(Zach?) his real brother or is he brother from another mother ?

No, no....and no.

Zach's not even the mc's fake brother, Seth is the brother's name, but yea, we have no idea who seth's parents are.

Yeah it's like you said. If you start at K5 or rise in your first try, you don't get almost any bad treatment so revenge doesn't make sense. Only maybe justice for all the crap they do to other people, but not you.
But I do have a save with 9 dom points and only 1 sub and I'm still at K4 being treated like crap. If you can then start to rise up, would be nice to get the option to get some payback.

Dom and sub points are not particularly mutually exclusive of the actual Dom and/or sub paths. One can be either on both branches and this is taken into account on the Dom path specifically regarding your assistant and pod trainer.

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

Tess got so many nasty suggestions, she killed off a whole path, I doubt that she'd have another path which would encourage people to make similar suggestions

 

[Stan5851]

....and no.

I think we need to know a little more about Callista's past to be able to say that with certainty. If we assume that Callista had no other male partners except her husband Cole and Alexander Karlsson, then Seth could be Alexander's son, whom he abandoned, thinking that a sick child could not be his heir and so he gave him to the runaway Callista to raise...or Seth could have another father (with genetic problems manifested in Seth) and another mother (not Callista). But in this case, it must be someone very important to Callista herself, so that she (despite her kindness) took Seth for upbringing...BTW, we again know nothing about whether Callista raised Seth and if so, how and when..

But I wouldn't rule out that Seth could be the son of Alexander Karlsson and someone else...If that someone else is not Callista, then it's probably Yvette. As we know, one of Yvette's daughters (Astrid) suffers from the same genetic disease as Seth. Moreover, this disease is very rare, which further reduces the “suspect list”. Yes, we know that Alexander harmed his own daughter (Astrid) after the famous events, making her a wheelchair-bound invalid, but her congenital genetic disease, as far as I can tell, has always been with her. So Yvette (in theory) could very well be Seth's hypothetical mother too.

He never mentioned Seth...he was asking about Zach.

Unless Elena was blatantly lying to Olivia, he can't be Alexander's son. Besides if Seth was his son, I'd imagine that there would be no use for the gambit in the first place. Yvette as mother does make a lot of sense storyline wise.

Sub path will have revolution! Part 2 will actually reveal 2 key leaders of the revolution faction and it’s one of the most fluid factions in the game in regards to characters joining/leaving it! Sub side is alittle more complex than the dom routes becauseMiss Tess is considering a non Olivia path and a involved Olivia path

 

[Stan5851]

You're right, but I assumed the person was just confusing the names Seth and Zach, i.e. he was talking about Seth (not Zach).

 

[Stan5851]

Either way, Gambit would have made sense (from Alexander's own perspective). As we know, Alexander was morbidly obsessed with genetics (and eugenics, if you will) and wanted his future heir to be perfect (and preferably the fruit of his and Callista's union), and he certainly didn't want to play Russian roulette and get a grandson with a genetic disease inherited on his mother's or father's side.

But if we assume that the sick Seth is still Yvette's son (which I'm leaning towards), then the question remains as to who Seth's real father is. If it's Alexander, then either there's something wrong with Alexander's genes and heredity, or this disease of Astrid's and Seth's was passed on to them through Yvette's mother's line. All in all, what is clear is that nothing is clear. Let's wait to see what Tess has to say. (in the future updates)
