Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.48.0] [Selebus]

[DeSkel15]

They get so much worse... it's why i remained silent whilst everyone else was trying to convince you the game was worth trying... i feel like everyone should be of a mind to simply save new players from this game, for all it's positives it does come with some noticeable drawbacks... the worst of which is this persistent inability to fucking drop it... the happy events suck, they're confusing and usually require stupid guessing and fiddling to break out of and i often hate being hooked on this game because of them... but damn the story is engrossing... the characters so endearing... i'd fault no one suggesting others give it a try, but i just can't do it myself... my opinion is always going to be "Fly, you fools".

I thought about saying something, but I could tell it was already too late...

Tsubasa after figuring out you lied to Chika and broke her heart.

Hey, can someone confirm this? You started the game without autovn on. You check the main girls and side girls to see their portraits are clickable. Part way through the game you restart with autovn on. You check the main girls and side girls tab to see it's all question marks besides the initial 10 main girls. Was it like this for you and at what point in the story did the questionmarks start switching back to the portraits?

When a new girl introduced properly, a question mark will be changed to portrait. Same applies to event progress menu. It show only chapter 1, when you finish it chapter 2 portrait will show up.

Truly, the real Lessons in Love was the trinities we found along the way.

Tsubasa after figuring out you lied to Chika and broke her heart.

That's exactly what Tsubasa wanted though. Her plan was for Akira to break both of their hearts, which would lead to Tsubasa assuming an even more important role in Chika's life, enabling her to take full care of Chinami and her. And for Touka, well, we all know why.

The only weird thing, to Tsubasa herself, was the Tsukasa thing. She fully intended to deliver Akira to the police and yet something hijacked her mind and made her do such a 180º that even she had trouble understanding why. I'm guessing that's tied to one of her secrets we've yet to discover, related to the supernatural stuff in the Tsukioka manor.

The "this chicken saved your life" is one of the best moments in all of LiL.

Edit: double post because I intended for it to be included in the last one, but I'm an old goth chick with a cellphone.

I was wondering if that's properly what happened, or whether she was just joking.
I'm really not sure because it would have been funny but also it'd track that the world goes out of it's way to prevent true harm to Sensei's position.
Which event name is it, I'd like to rewatch it.

I'm on good sensei route and tried to prevent harm to Tsukasa so maybe I missed something but I don't properly see a reason she would report him yet but the dialogue made it sound like something had happened between them but obviously I don't know what other than him leaving her lesson early.

No idea, but autovnmod would probably hide the girls that haven't appeared properly yet. Maybe check if Karin and Kirin stop being ????? since they can be introduced early in CH1 without too much issue. There's also Sara and Haruka you could check depending on how important autovn made them.

Dear Lord, this thread is zooming by recently, so much activity. Not that I'm complaining. Even Sel is cooking with the constant previews. We eating good.

Anyway, the question about which LiL character to sex up has an objectively correct answer and that is (Moonflare, don't click on this) Kirin. Idc if you like her or not, she is the biggest freak in the sheets out of everyone (and not in the sense of "closeted freak" like Sana, God god bless her, or "sociopath freak" like Nodoka, God god please don't bless her) and would be the most fun, if sex is all that you were looking for.

I would potentially allow Chika (since she is similar to Kirin in that regard), Touka because of the titty bonus, Sara, Haruka, Rika or Maki for experience or Clown Yumi for the novelty.

No way, Sana is the biggest freak 100%.
That being said I'd pic Chika for those outfits.

Sana is not a freak...she is cute and everybody loves her....

I uh... I had no idea what I was getting myself into huh... The first uh... "happy"(?) event makes me unsure if I am able to continue, I'm not sure I was ready for it to make me cry in fear, I'm not sure anything has... at least like this.

So, probably no one cares but fuck it. So I've gotten further and I feel scared of raising the lust stat on anyone. It almost feels like the game doesn't want me to with some of the... interesting scenes that occur at certain times. And it also leaves me kind of confused about what the message is meant to be, to horny them or not?
I think I would feel bad actually using the game mechanics that are given to me as the player controlling an avatar who's controlling someone else. Is that the point?

I'm genuinely conflicted by this game and I'm not sure what to think about it. Some of the scares are kinda cheap and even though there was a flashing lights warning at the start of the game I'm almost certain one of those scares were made specifically to cause problems. The writing so far is... interesting, it seems to vary somewhat in quality? but given what the game does already I'm sure that's intentional. or it's just one of those common products of updating and adding to a game over time which... might add to it?



I'm not sure what I've even just written, literally all I've done today is play this game for maybe 10 hours probably more, no breaks at all, I'm very hungry and tired so all I see when I even try to look at what I've written is blurred to the point of it being a blank page.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's just a joke, does it look any different on bad sensei run?

If you saw the red-green path discussion earlier, you should know a bunch of scenes are locked behind raising lust high enough. Get the guide mod.

That one could be a joke, but there's at least one scene with here where she specifically mentions "but I don't know why" as if she's surprised she's making some decision

Chapter One is uneven. After Chapter Two was completed, the dev went back and reworked much of the first chapter, especially in the first half (up to the beach trip series). He didn't rewrite everything, he reviewed each event, and if he didn't like the writing, he re-did it. Some things were changed entirley, some were changed slightly, and the art was redone across the board. So yeah, the writing in chapter one is alternating between "guy who just started working on this" and "Same buy, but with two more years of planning and experience under his belt"

The game is a deconstruction of the harem genre. The discomfort is intentional. The bad vibe you're getting from Sensei is intentional. You're playing a deconstruction and subversion of the harem genre, not an actual harem game.

Playing a lewd VN for 10 hours straight and then complaining about the writing consistency is such Molly behavior.

But in all seriousness, take a break. The writing is quite consistently good, especially after the chapter 1 rework. It's just that one has to get used to Sel's style of writing and understand that there are various narrators and that they might clash in their messages and tone. I think Moonflare once summarized it well, topics and atmosphere switch a lot depending on which narrator/god is currently at the steering wheel.

Later in the event she says she doesn't know why she trusts him, she just does.
