Everything with Makoto is just brutal. With events like Nodoka's, the story kind of couches it with how horrible the girl is being, but it seems like every Makoto event is about driving home just how absent and callous Sensei has been.
Normally I would've waited for the Guide mod to be updated, but I'm impatient!
I'm no stranger to adjusting Love/Lust levels on the fly, especially after 'fixing pipes' actually meant fixing pipes! Hilarious scene.
If I were to set each girls' stats to something like 777/777, is there a chance that I'd miss scenes?
I agree. Before Sensei became Sensei, Makoto simply looked up to her teacher. But once Sensei stopped teaching and started reciprocating her affections, something kinda broke in her.
And with Yumi.. I mean, we were starting to get to a place where she tolerated Sensei's presence, rather than telling him f- off. Now because of Nodoko, we're back at square 1.
Or Nodoka forced her to face the truth about her feelings for Sensei and it will inevitably be part of the reason she eventually does wind up in his arms.
Yeah, I had some Bluejay PTSD during Makoto's event chain
I wrote this cheat mod https://f95zone.to/threads/lessons-in-love-v0-25-0-part-2-selebus.48158/post-8455558 and played through the game with all girls' affection set to 50 from near the start and didn't miss anything (had to purposefully avoid the Chika event so I wouldn't get bad homie but that problem can arise even if you aren't cheating)
Hrmm.. sounds good. According to the wiki, it looks like most events require the previous event completed, so missing out seems to be less of a thing. I'm glad Selebus did the Chap 1 revamp. Allowed me to play again without being a Bad Homie.
I still want Rin.. and Otoha.. separately and in a threesome. ;-)
Note for future players: Don't let Yumi know about Sensei and Chika's relationship.

The revamp also added a bunch of previous-event requirements to help keep things in the right order. So it's even safer to do this now than it was a few months ago.
Not just that, but it seems like she has attempted bluejaying several more times and remembers doing so / not being able to.

Events in this update have a set order.
Focus on Yasu. Once youv'e reached a certain point on her events, nearly all of the remaining events will self-trigger starting on Thursday.

So I'm playing through the reworked content for the first time and I just got passed the "Swim Trip" Happy scene, and I'm curious whether that event actually happened or if it was like a hallucination or dream or something? The way Maya was talking to Sensei made it seem like she was actually there and they were both witnessing the world (and Ami and Ayane) breaking in some way. Usually with the happy scenes it seems pretty clear that Sensei is in a sort of dream state that is unobservable by anyone else, but this one almost seemed like it was really happening
The creator isn't overly clear in regards to what's going on with those 'happy' scenes, but the way they play out, I suspect they're some of the magic of the world (and what created it) leaking out. Especially that 'beach' scene. Given how Maya seems to have some control over the world herself, I think she can see what happens in that world when things break.

As a serious fan of the game who has given a bunch of money to it (even bought merch), it pains me to say this, but....
I recommend that players do *not* start over with a new save. In fact, I recommend that if you talk up the game to new players, you have them play chapter 1 on a 23p2-or-earlier build and then toggle over to the current releases. The rework is just..... bad. The bones of the story is still fine, the prose is the usual high Selebus quality, but jesus christ it shits all over the basic rules of storytelling. There is no easing people in, no generating interest, no teasing, no build up. Just punishing players that Selebus thinks of as Unworthy (mainly, someone who might consider jerking off). The dude has been listening to too many of his sycophants on his discord, and it shows.
I don't think his attitude is going to hurt the quality of the new Ch3 content since that is already off the rails into dark-land, but it makes it so I can't imagine him getting many new $5 pledges. The first 30 minutes of gameplay were sexy and fun, and now they come across as pretentious "look at me I am so dark" bullshit. (You simply can't start a story talking like an edgelord, you have to earn the reader's respect first.) I think the bulk of first-time players will say "lol, some angsty teenager who believed his creative writing teacher when she called him talented" and close the game and never come back. It's a slog, it's badly paced, it's not entertaining enough to justify the beating, and it's just a huge turn-off.
I'm going back to my old pre-rework saves and just pick up where we left off. I'm sorry Selebus wasted so much time making his early-game into a lesser product.
Predictions:
- When Sel reads this, he will skim it and dismiss it as being written by someone unworthy of playing his game.
- His patron counts are going to start dwindling once the last Patreon people find their way over to SS, because the new interest will be so low as to be unable to even replace normal attrition
- He will blame Patreon for the above
- He will still make enough to live on-- lack of new blood will be partially offset by existing fans bumping their tiers-- so the game will continue but the player community will get more insular.
This all makes me sad.
