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

[Moonflare]

Selebus keeps trying to make his players feel bad, little does he know that here we go for the throat (some variations of Haruka's lust names):

You can find out that Haruka is a pedophile much earlier if you choose Rin too.

Okay, enough, let's go with most hurtful you can be while still in the canon:

In terms of dealing pain to someone, I think this is really really good. Making her call you the pet name she chose for her husband, while cheating on him and still trying to not think about it... Nevermind that she found sex with Akira to be better the first time around, now she's even saying the same words she would have said to her husband. Well done, Selebus.

 

[Bingoogus]

Wish he could think up a better incentive.

He literally has no other options, he has the supporters he has and getting more is basically impossible for him now, all he can do is squeeze as much juice out of the lemons he already has.

Ave Maria?

that or kyrie eleison. Although Yasu singing the battlehymm of the republic would be something else as well (I recommend the wasteland 3 version for that one, as it sounds as an actual battlehymm of people marching to war). Battle Priestess of Fallen Snow Yasu, let's go!

Edit: Random thought: Do we know that the flares aren't actually dust particles being illuminated by the first narrator?

Maybe everytime the flare happens it's actually about interference from the first narrator? Has someone noticed anything about this?

Tsukasa doesn't know enough about sex to do that. She's closer to the next Io. Chinami would be the next Sekai once her good side breaks like it did in her sister.



I mean a few days ago a game with a similar idea was on the update queue. Instead of erectile dysfunction, it was chronic small pp. Quick look at it showed general mockery, being feminized by a dommy mommy, getting ntr'ed by a black guy, and having lolis tell you they don't feel your small penis (and one good ending where you get married and her pregante)

Welp there goes my million dollar idea. Looks I wont be able to commison that life size Touka statue any more

a divine revelation...

 

[Moonflare]

one minor point that I hadn't noticed:

Saki has no idea what Kumon-mi is, and yet she lived with Akira in the old district, didn't she? I don't think Yuu, Saki and Miu moved to another city after school either.

I can't recall if their world was TERMINAL21 or 22, but that she has no idea about the name of the city they are supposed to live in is certainly telling. I mean, it's not surprising that Kumon-mi is fake, but this is certainly another evidence of it.

Edit: It is also a bit weird that Akira can simply meet his mom and be super okay with it.

Edit: It is also a bit weird that Akira can simply meet his mom and be super okay with it.

The Saki he's meeting is presumably substantially younger than any version he would have known. If I met a 16 year old version of my mother, I wouldn't recognize her at all. He doesn't understand the significance of the encounter until MUCH later in the story. Hell, even by the second dorm war, he couldn't remember her name and had no memory of her.

That's just another random girl to him during this encounter.

Very disappointing to find out that New Nodoka has kept the smirk.

I assume she deliberately got an identical copy of Chika's outfit to fuck with her, but I wonder - if she was able to remember Chika's outfit from the previous Christmas parties, wouldn't that mean she's managed to avoid a full factory reset? New Maya doesn't remember anything from the first three chapters. It would be anticlimactic (but not out of character for Selebus) if she continues acting exactly like she did pre 0.44 and nobody remembers that anything happened.

I don't know about lens flares, but with how often Sel has been using them particularly in chapter 4 I'd guess they're just an aesthetic choice. Since you brought up the dust, though, I'll point out that it's another one of the little clues that connect Maya and the narrator.

I've wondered about this book since we first saw it. I'm no expert, but it definitely doesn't look like a standard Koikatsu asset, in which case Selebus might have went out of his way to find one that looks like this in particular. The cover looks consistent with gold-inlaid leather, so could it be the same book that Ami talks about in "On the Count of Three", and if so, what would that even mean?

The way that book was displayed sounds like a religious text. Maybe it's related to Hope or the trinity given that Saki was one of his followers (according to Yasu). Touka mentioned that the Tsukiokas have a book in their library about Yasu's god that is hundreds of years old, which could explain where Tsukasa got it. That doesn't sound like something Futaba would read, though.

 

[givemeabeer]

A random thinking of mine, but... I muted the music in this game.
Not because it's bad, I never heard any glimpse of it, but because I can't read and «listen» at the same time.

And yeah, that preview with the «despaclito» karaoke scene, make me wonder if that song appear in the game...

Really need more Tsukasa and Chinami content. Every time new version comes out its the first thing I look for.

 

[Djfjnensks]

As for the naming of Tsukasa, Tsubasa, Touka, I think its easy to remember. Tsukasa is the hot one and I don't care about the others.

Damn dawg, the things the NYPD wants to do to the CEO shooter off-camera couldn't get this out of me.

She's still going to be 'old' nodoka until she has specific events where Akira stops her working on her old notes. She'd basically be the same Nodoka just without the Halloween memories. In fact she's probably noticed she hasn't gone to Halloween this time.

I have the audio, but no music.
And the game's still good without it, so, why bother, eh?

I don't think Sel could afford to put the song in the game

I mean, to each their own, I guess? I'm probably one of the most nurturing and conciliatory voices here, but even I'm struggling with this no music thing

Just imagining playing this game without "good morning" or "little bunny" is like trying to imagine eating without sense of smell.

Furthermore, it's not like every soundtrack for an event carries special meaning other than something playing in the background, but a substancial amount of them do, and at times they communicate so much it's hard to think about the event without them. Like the fireflies event with Maya, or when the same song is played again in the Yumi "cabin during the rainstorm" event. The usage of the same song again communicates things that aren't in the text.
