Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.47.0] [Selebus]

[shmurfer]

- Said death would occur in the update right before the next reset, so Chinami would be back after it happens (unless some weird ass twist occurs where she’s actually gone for a little while).

It just makes sense.

Just because she might be gone for a while , the mechanics are there to bring her back. Her being 'dead' during the dark chapter / arc would make sense thematically. Just a question of if Selebus can squeeze out enough Sensei specific trauma to call it the dark path. Io shows you need more than just bad things happening to one character of the story for it to be considered dark path. The update after 'the worst thing' to happen in the game has been one of the greatest ones.

All the reviews going on about how they aren't able to get aroused/masturbate to this game therefore it's bad are so embarrassing. Just makes me think how if somebody went on a rant about how they thought Cyberpunk 2077 or Baldur's Gate 3 was a terrible game solely because the sex scenes didn't get them off they'd be laughed out of the room.

It's kind of expected given the percentage of people here solely to sharpen the dagger. That's just how it goes some times. But the funniest part to me is when people say "I played for dozens of hours, and the sex scenes never got any better."
It's like, fuck dude, did you run out of other games to try? That's an unbelievable amount of dedication to not going outside.

Anyone got a summary of what the general thoughts are for the happy event? From what I gathered they're warning Akira, Halloween is coming and there may be a reset. He needs some sort of..."'costume"(maybe "wearing the skin" of another girl aka fucking them idk), and some stuff about boxes. Plus the crown thing, and him taking care of a flower which I assume is himawari somehow. Tue backwards letters and stuff I understood, and Nao seems to be related to slipping. Talks about worlds, Nao is related to the first of the girls slipping being Noriko, along with herself. Plus she directed them to that room

Also the dots at the beginning of the happy event made me laugh damnit. That awkward silenced and Moyo just walking along.

This update makes me think about Bioshock Infinite. At least, I think Sel was inspired by some ideas from it.

A lot of parallel worlds/realities.
A daughter of MC who can travel between them and has strange powers.

MC shown in grey/sepia world with a newborn baby, trying to raise her alone, heavily depressed.

Maybe in original timeline something happened with Ayane and Sensei was alone with a baby, and something happened, and he jumped (again?)

Or something sent Sensei in the past/to the different reality to prevent his mistakes?

Could be infinite (lol) possibilities. But these ideas are definitely there.


- Akira, are you afraid of god?
- No, but I'm afraid of you.

 

[LoveRedHairedGirl]

maybe "wearing the skin" of another girl

Remember when Maya was cosplaying as Sensei? So what if... he will cosplay as Maya, xd

As an aside, not sure if this was supposed to actually be a full week+ beach trip or not. I haven't looked at the code, but I'd be interested in checking if something unintentionally caused the day count to increment by eight instead of one. I thought it was a weekend trip until I read that, but could have just been wrong. And the interference adding a week would be weird. Oh well.

I thought the same but the code is explicitly $totaldays += 9 at the last beach event

 

[Pedro4545454]

I have a pretty bad theory, but I'll say it anyway, since Paredollia is darkness, it would be possible that the dark route is actually where Akira is sleeping/trapped in his mind and is Paredollia Who is controlling everything along this route?

chika's gonna need to find an american veteran in his late 60s like any normal filipina girl would do to move on from Sensei

 

[RubyAlter]

Hey.. sorry for the sudden request, but does anyone have a save file for version 0.39 or early 0.40? I had to stop playing because my laptop had issues and I want to play again.

And it should be me. (I am retiring to the Philippines as we speak.)

This should be end of .39 or in .40. I lost my older backups so I went as far back as I could. Let me know if it doesn't work or I got the wrong one or something.

Ok so small life update.The 2 year thing is still on BUT there is a small chance ill still be able to play lil and come here but we will see.Ill know for sure at like nov-dec.

After the 2 year mark it will be a cycle of 2-3 months of chilling and staying up to date with the game and 6+ months of being out of the loop.Rinse and repeat(Unless i suffer under the guise of mobile gaming).

My point is,please be kind to me in the future cause i WILL forget stuff.



No moving on to the update.This is one of the best updates ive played in a while,not because it had some INSANE lore implications but because,at least the way i see it this update did what i like to call "Sowing seeds".Plenty of seeds for future events and developments were planted this update.

>Nodoka finds out that we are in a time loop(sort of) and she gets ever so closer to finding the truth about Akiras and Sekais relationship.
>Futabas event and what it means
>Sana and the 3 moons
>Io and Uta
>Chika situation

This update has made it clear that big things are coming in the future and i am oh so excited.Anyways thats all i had to say for now(Ironically enough this update really doesnt have a lot to talk about cause its setting up for the future).

 

[fdsasdf_p]

It will be a good plot twist actually

It would've been a real shocker had he not posted some doomsaying. Now everyone goes rampant broadcasting the confirmed decease of our little angel entirely one month early. At this point even if Chinami really dies next update and it for sure won't go well within the community, the "twist" element is already gone for me so I hope it's something else because I yearn to be genuinely surprised.

No! No touch Chinami! Chinami is safe and sound!
(not actually angry with you)

You can use your phone in the army bro, it's okay. And we'll still love you after you get drafted

Stop killing wizards. They are going to extinct!

 

[Xiondingens]

Chinami huh? Tbh i am not even surprised. He pushed Chika in such a unsubtle way that i expect her to just burn the whole of Kings Landing with her dragon in the next episode.

It's a bit of a stretch, but what if we were going to get the big reset? The one where everyone goes back to their "defalt" setting. Since we've seen that Futaba and Noriko can pop into the upside-down world, or whatever we are calling it, maybe this is a sign that a lot of the cast are about to find themselves in this strange place.
Taking away a lot of the characters that Akira cares about might make him stop caring about the little bit of morality he has left. It could be an interesting split story where we watch the girls try to find their way back while Akira falls further and further into the debauchery the gods want.

Three is too many; there can only be one!

For me at least, this would be the absolute worst way to go, i struggled enough with Maya getting reset, new Maya is still a nothingburger of a character, i watch her scenes without any emotional attachment, they're just scenes. If you add in a bunch of other characters the same way... i honestly think i'd lose all interest in this story, even if it was temporary.

I'm so fucking angery right now, Selebus please just remove

Well, story-wise it is actually... at least for me... not a good idea. Like, we don't have that many characters that requires to go back to their "default" settings. I mean, we have only 3(4) RAS girls and few other girls who might end up there. And if we suddenly make them forget about it, it will be stupid. We will lose everything we got so far.
And even if you talk about making all girls forget their feelings towards Sensei... I don't think most of us will like it, or even Selebus liking it. This is LESSONS IN LOVE we talk about. Girls should learn how to love properly, I believe.
