Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.46.0] [Selebus]

[barglenarglezous]

Considering I live off the compressed versions already, I somewhat hope it doesn't become too expansive. Not sure if splitting the game up fits Sel's vision though.

If I had to guess, I'd assume the dark phase would begin after the next reset, especially now that we have Psycho Ami awakening. Which would make the final install of the completed game about 27-30 GB.

Bit large for a Mega download, to be sure.

I'm wondering if Sekai and Ami are currently enemies in each other's eyes considering they each want Sensei for themselves? And if so, is it possible to wait for Sekai's help in counteracting psychoAmi?

What if Ami has always been psycho and in love with Akira? Maybe she found out Sekai was pregnant with his baby somehow and cut her brakes or something?

I think it's the impact of the infinite loops on her psyche.

For an untold number of years, everyone around her would snap back to a default state every 4-16 months, so in her mind, they've become little more than NPCs. Prior to this cycle, literally anything they'd have to say is something she's likely heard dozens, if not hundreds of times.

And now the rules have changed, and even though she knows the rules have changed, she is so deep in that infinite-loop psychosis that she can't bring herself to treat the other characters as actual people and LISTEN to what they have to say to her. It's why she didn't tell Ayane the VERY IMPORTANT information about Ami, Ayane's still an NPC in her mind.

Yeah, I struggle see how anyone can really stay sane after a thousand years of this.

Add on the implication that there are scary things in this world that she knows about, then the others being NPCs, and the world resetting, might be the least of things she's had to rationalize to keep some semblance of sanity.

Still, Maya definitely needs to overcome her irrationality and move on if she actually wants to get out of this.

Then again, her being in any other resets could just be a fabrication that she thinks is real. Her not mentioning Psycho Ami could also be because she didn't actually "know" about her until now. Tsuneyo opened up a can of worms with this:

I'm wondering this as well. Spirit Sekai and Real Ami seemed to be allies based off Sekai holding Ami when she visited her grave, and how Kaori and Ami are friends. Not to mention, Ami dressing up as her, and trying to be like her.

Psycho Ami on the other hand, well, I don't see how Ami butchering people benefits Spirit Sekai in any way. Especially if Psycho Ami kills Sensei.

For all we know, though, John and Nao-chan could be countermeasures against Psycho Ami in some way.

It's definitely something I'll be looking forward to finding out.

I assumed that was the case for a while, she even called Akira "daddy" once during sex and then seemingly forgot that she did that.

 

[Bingoogus]

That's a pretty common theory around here, given the ages he'd have been somewhere around 14 and we know by that time he was having full-on intercourse with Sekai so it's not a crazy leap of imagination.

It's good to see my favourite character getting some love (Kaori that is)

Unlikely. I can accept and believe that there is no "psychoAmi" and Ami in Kumon mi is always insane, just hiding it well, but the constant loops and the accident with its consequences serve as a prerequisite for this. There simply isn't a good enough reason for the existence of psychoAm prior to all of this. At least i think so.

Here's another previews for you.

In this preview, it's Yasu as a child.*

Yasu looks so different in the first pic. Possibly a flashback?

I think she looks older, like Yasu's mom, but that might be just the bags under her eyes.

Yes, this is her baby form. So we'll most likely have flashbacks.

combination of the bags under the eyes and the baggier clothes I think. Plus the hair is definitely longer, unless that's just supposed to be how long her hair is when it's actually brushed normally instead of being a mess. Her expression, the room she's in, and the totally different style make me think that might be a glimpse into whatever her tragic backstory is.

Akira once asked if she was on drugs and she said "not anymore" so that may explain the bags

 

[Kagitane]

By the way, here's another thought: to climb the roof or see otherworldly entities and undersides of the world, you do not need to perform some specific action (how to get pregnant or be killed by Ami), but simply accumulate enough madness - just like in black souls. Both the lost child (Ayane) and the death of the father (Makoto) fit into this theory.

That is one super cute LoveBurger, but this one is so weirdly hot for all reasons beyond my understanding
