Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.52.0] [Selebus]

[NewWill]

The relationship with Niki and Sensei has legitimately remembering that April Fools joke from a few years ago, when I last played, where Selebus discussed removing all of the sexual content from the game. And thinking on it now. . .I could deal with that so long as the Adult Relationships also stayed in?

Specifically the trio of Maki, Sara, and Niki. Haruka. . . honestly still feels the odd woman out and the one whose pain and trauma I haven't connected to as deeply.

But yeah no, I think I can see a version of this game where Sensei blacked out from his. . . *dalliances* with the younger cast and still maintain the story and . . . mystery? Though there's quite a few emotional character moments that only happen during said scenes so I'm not quite sure how those would be handled in such a case had that April Fools been true.

I'm rambling. Good game, I thought I was close to the end (Last I played there were only 2 Resets of the timeline) but I'm really enjoying this trip down the road of Sensei. . . honestly and subtly getting a hell of a lot better then he was at the beginning of the game?

His "Blue Shirt" Arc has really been him becoming a hell of a lot less passive then he used to be. Still a dick and a prick, but also still a lot better.

Your spoiler worked fine, so no worries.

Those are definitely good guesses you have as far as what’s going on. Guess you’ll just have to keep playing to find out for yourself.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned that Otoha is a teacher herself in the Death Ball documentary. Pretty funny, again a good call by Bingoogus and others about her preferences

 

[barglenarglezous]

I wonder if Chika would end up getting mad at Sensei, or if she would just rationalize it as him being taken advantage of and just go nuclear on the girls. I feel like her denial wouldn't be broken all at once.

If the only one she finds out about is Niki, she'll rationalize it as a perfectly justifiable celebrity exception, and then ask if Niki'd be down for a threesome.

I haven't been through the entire update. Hadn't the time, found some, and now I'm basically at the beginning of it.

Upon hitting the first new track (Imani and Wakana scene), unfortunately, I immediately had to stop and replace some of the music. It was a bit too distracting. These first few scenes discouraged me a bit. The jokes felt way too "meta" or something. A small example: "Noriko showing the school to a bunch of nerdy white guys" is probably some discord-in-joke BS. Can't even tell if that was meant to be funny, honestly. Seemed like just more pandering. Maybe I'm being unreasonable. Anyway... the rest of it to that point wasn't so bad (though the narrator's monologue felt a bit aimless.) Liked the Maya and Noriko confrontation.

Definitely worse than 0.38, at least for now.

The nerdy white guys were Good Kid, who is a real live band made up of nerdy white guys.

I wonder if they know they've been inserted into a grooming simulator.

Considering how unnatural the music feels in this update, it could be collaboration? In that case they know. I doubt it personally. Live bands would not really care about being inserted in any work in my opinion, as long as it is not a popular media. Man, it would be hilarious tho if they know or find out. I can picture it: "Hey, guys, our songs are being used in story about a predator who have regular sex with underage teens", "Awesome right?". Hahahaha. That would be truly amusing to see their reaction if they have no idea. Maybe there is a way to contact them? Ask for their opinion, possibly? Hilarious shitstorm possible in that case. Thanks for the idea, I'll see if I can do anything with the idea
Edit: it seems the avenues for contact are not there. They are canadian based band, I have some foreign student connection in Ontario, but nah. I dont see any concerts planned in Ontario on the net, only Toronto. Unfortunate.
Edit(2). Of course I did not see any "Ontario" tickets. Heh. Okay maybe I can actually try something. This will be funniest shit ever if possible, but I doubt it.
Edit(3). Nah, it is not in Toronto despite being in the same province. Advice for any student who want to go to Canada via student program, do not pick Conestoga College as your choice. Worst mistake of your life. But if you are there to work and not to study, then pick Conestoga. They will take your money and then not give a single shit if you do not show up. Edit(4): It is 1 hour travel from Waterloo to Toronto, lmao, but I can already tell that I wont be able to convince my friend to attend any concert, even if I pay for the favor. Final update in that case

I see three shows on their schedule in Ontario -- Ottowa, Waterloo, and Toronto.

And Conestoga's only an hour out of Toronto. That's hardly a trek.

They've actually got a show not too far from me, but it's sold out. I legit thought they were pretty good, though the looping was distracting.

Yeah, I just checked the fucking maps. He is a foreign student in Waterloo, you can literally walk to Toronto, but I was rebuked, one would think I am forcing him to walk a 2000km trek and not to just take a damn bus. Did not know there are concert in Waterloo. That actually works in my favor. I will try again to convince him. You got any foreign friend in Waterloo or Kitchener? Half the fucking population in there seems to be foreign students.

 

[Noob Gamer Loves Everyone]

Okay I saw there is a event planned for may 30 in Waterloo, I will try my best to convince him in the meantime. In case there are canadians in this thread, you can buy a ticket from their site. Just type "waterloo concert Good Kid" and it will be the very first result. It will then redirect you to "ticketscene" site. Price is quite normal it seems. Below 30 dollars for one person. You can buy for several people. Edit: there is also one in Toronto in may 10. Most concerts are planned in US and they are all going in April, so you can easily attend one this month if you are an american. I live in a shithole, so no concerts are planned in my country, so if there is concert near you try to attend it and bring up LiL in some way. That would be hilarious and even more so if you manage to talk with good kids. I would have done it myself if I did not live a continent away

 

[barglenarglezous]

Ooooh, I misunderstood. I thought YOU were at that college and were looking for a show to go to.

Yeah, I wouldn't try to convince any of my friends to go see a random indie band like that.

"Hey man, you should go check out this band, i discovered them in a porn game, they're a 1000 miles from you but you can totally bus that."

 

[Kitty Hawk]

What's next? Sending a bunch of guys to capture Sel to lock him in a dark basement with a computer to write LiL non-stop?

Why even go to such lengths to stir up a meaningless shitstorm? Let’s just all play the game in peace.

I support this idea......

 

[butterfly boy]

Given his attitude I'm surprised he's not locked in a dark basement forced to write LiL non-stop.

 

[Xiondingens]

Hey Sel, blink twice if you are being held hostage.

 

[lolbob3]

hmm..Is there an easier way to know when a scene is not available during scene replay?

I know scene replay is limited due to having default flags, but for example, in the niki non-disclosure agreement event, there's a scene with ami and ayane in the woods.

Is the only way to rewatch that scene saving the scene's scriptname in urm when that scene came up during the playthrough? Is there an easier way to detect those with URM?

Yes, my post was a bit stupid (completely ignorant regarding bands.) I hadn't seen the scene that explained that when I made it. I do think Good Kid's music isn't bad at all. It's moderately intense, so I kept focusing on their lyrics instead of reading the text.
