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

[BlackDays]

I have been wondering when we will get more Kaori. I believe its been a couple months in game since her last scene and I don't see a new event for her this first half of the year. Lets hope we eventually see her and Akira talk about it but I won't hold my breath.

Pretty sure the plot gets armor again.
While there's still hope, i don't think they'll be discussing the things that have been revealed with her being a "bnb hotel" for the gods and espacially Sekai.

And i got to admit it's a bit tiring that things always go that way.
Someone lately asked what people would do if being inserted into lil with the knowledge we have and some funny ideas came around. Espacially, trying to find things out for once.

That's the gripe i have with the story, or some other stories in general.
They do know stuff is going on, but the casts efforts to find out are almost non existing, even though they have their RAS.
Only one who tried was Nodoka. But she got axed (reading, knifed).
I wonder if that was Sel's point anyway.
Like: "If they try to find out, they can't", with severe consequences. Like, reinforcing the plot's armor.

Also, if I did that no one would have my now regular "trigger posts". I have my notebook ready and everything for tomorrow. Also, given the events, I'm thinking we may see less linked ones this time.

I disagree.

I won't be able to play the 0.47.0 update until Sunday so everyone is forbidden from discussing it until I have played it.

So sayeth the Crust Lord.

If you do follow the teachings of so called Crust Lord; you would also wait a further 15 to 20 days to play the update since Pedro4545454 won't be able play the game until then, what says you, devoted follower?

 

[derekthered56]

Friend the patrons of this thread don't have to cater to you. If you don't want to be spoiled simply log off and read a little faster. Because guess what, the new update is tomorrow and were going to be discussing it, which means there is going to be spoilers and we would hate for you to come across any more spoilers that you haven't come across yet.

I think it's somewhat reasonable to spoiler things that just happened that day. It's spoilering things that happened years ago that gets silly.
Really if we did that, how would a newb in the middle of say chapter 2 know if a spoiler contained something they already passed, or something from chapter 3? They'd end up just not reading any posts, which is exactly what everyone else is advising them to do anyway.

Look out for formerly called "Bullfrog" games, and Peter Molyneux.
Pinacle of games back then.

You know it's kinda fucked up this is how I found out dungeon keeper mobile has proper video games entries, what have EA done to you Bullfrog Games.

and Peter Molyneux.

Ah so the Lead designer of the Fable series had a hand in these games, that's pretty cool. I'm probably too young to appreciate the history and longevity of this company and their past games, there really are so many companies and old games I'm blind to.
Doesn't help I don't clean up my backlog at all

It's kinda sad how the "Arts" in Electronic Arts once stood for something, compared to nowadays locust practises.
And yeah, Peter Molyneux was a game developer genius in his prime, just to fall and inable to adabt to the future of games (Godus). Was sad to see him fall like that.

I played/own all "Theme xxx" games, Syndicate/Wars is an all time favorite and an unmeasurable inspiration to this day.

Don't get me started on that, seeing that the highest-selling games in 2024 were mostly FPS and sports games has me dead already.

Yea.... Unfortunately, that's the nature of a consistently evolving harsh industry that continues even to this day, it tends to leave people behind like that, kinda reminds me how Shenmue 3 was completely outdated even though it released in 2019. Makes me wonder how many companies and people in the late 90s in this industry were left behind like that.

 

[BlackDays]

Lionhead also released some absolute bangers.

The Black and White games.
Don't know if they had more.
The "Black and White" games were interesting for their time (couldn't beat the last map in B&W2).

Peter Molyneux created the "God Game" genre with "Populous" as far as i know.
He tried to stick to that with his "22 Cans" studios (after Lionhead), but failed badly.
To much catering to some imagined "Mobile Generation" audience. For the younglings it wasn't interesting enough and for the "Old Sports" like me, it was too casual.

But that's the thing. He's a bad person, period. That has never been in question. Can he still do some good actions? Yeah. Will he stop being a bad person? Can he? That's what we're going to find out eventually.

Now i think about it. There is this thing called "The Dark Route" in the future... Which eats up all my hope.

Also like I said before, why not just say Sensei or MC?

Atleast in my case i call "Sensei" the dick with a body he is, like the most inhuman part of him taking control of the situation. And "Akira" when he shows his humanity and care about the others and take rational decisions. I have done it since so long ago that i just do it out of habit

Black & White, the Fable series, and The Movies, which was kind of a cross between Sims and one of the Theme ____ games, where you were managing a film studio, but the stars all acted like Sims. Better than the Sims games that were out at the time IMHO.

Went a bit late into the Fable games, my last machine couldn't handle the 2nd entry, which was a poor console port back then, but i enjoyed the first.
Also own/played "The Movies". And while it was quite barebone and i lost interest rather fast, i had to have it.
Good old times.

Thank you very much.

I just replayed the event again and when sensei sees Yumi on the bridge:

At first i thought wires were trying to stop him from grabbing Yumi but, after learning Sekai and Wires knows each other makes me think Wires may be the one who initiated the whole thing. But why would he do that. What has he against Yumi to the point of pushing Yumi.

Toward the end of the kiss, there is a remark of a car crash.

We know Sekai died in the crash, we are pretty sure Kaori got hurt in the crash, and we know Yumi and Kaori are related.

Is it possible Yumi is connected to accident but she didn't know or forgot?
