Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.53.0] [Selebus]

[Moonflare]

The triggers are now on a separate thread: https://f95zone.to/threads/lessons-in-love-trigger-guides-v0-53-0.275514/

They're also fixed on the first page.

But the current update has no triggers, everything is linked.

Edit: In response to your final question, the events for this update both are linked to the previous update and link to the next one (with another "to be continued" screen).

Ahh. Thanks for that. I think I'll wait till that next update then just to make sure. Cheers

New recurring theme: one-word event names with random Japanese city names make for really emotional stuff. See Kyoto and now, Aomori

Quick guesses about things, probably need to be fucking all the adults related to the bar. Possible lust grinding for Chika and Kirin. Potentially Nodoka but honestly I'd rather she be getting actual plot where they talk to her rather than splitting one event off for sex.

If Sel has the stones, not dicking Maya if people haven't gotten enough affection for her by visiting her in the dorms, available since last christmas.

Fine with me - I never had any interest in dicking her.

Hell of a way to fall off green path.

Hell of a way to fall off green path.

Oh, I did it, I just didn't care about it.

Maya is not an interesting character to me. The story tells us she is interesting and Sensei apparently can't live without her, but I've never actually seen any reason why. I was actually excited when we got NuMaya because I thought maybe she'd be less unbearable without thousands of years of resets but she is no better.

Honestly, I think people might be missing the point with Red Path Io and Green Path Io.

Spoiler: kind of dark.

Stomachache was a hard one for me. I have a friend that essentially lived through what Io did by her grandfather, uncle, and half sister. And then her adoptive family. Like, if I didn't know any better, my friend could be the inspiration for Io, outside of the fact that she went in the opposite direction than Io didHypersexuality instead of Asexuality.

I personally hope that Selebus gives us a good ending for Red Path. The game is very obviously about being broken, and wallowing in that brokenness...but that doesn't mean you can't make good decisions sometimes. Character growth is a good thing, and that seems to be a heavy theme in Chapter 4. He's trying to be better for Ami, because he loves her. Io and Sensei share alot of the same sorts of Trauma, and Sensei knows damn well that part of why he's broken is because of that. I want to believe that he's self aware enough sometimes to recognize that doing harm for harms sake isn't necessary. That he can do good, even while being a bad person.

Not to mention...Sensei hates the idea of fucking someone that doesn't want to fuck him. He hates the blackouts, he was haunted by what happened with Molly, and the various run ins with Yumi during blackouts and loss of control.

Finger's crossed that future updates can give redpath a good future.

Just want to drop my own thoughts in on .53, while Aramaug, Bingoogus, Moonflare and Deskel mentioned a good chunk of it, besides others maybe, i skipped like 10 pages.

First of all, update was good.
I wish that what we learned, will now be the grounding point for the lore.
Wouldn't even mind if Sel went out from there and retconned things in the past and adjusts future things from here on, hopefully removing story/general junk.

Again!? Why am i included in this list? Who do you people think i am? I am a moron! 90% of the subtext in this story goes right over my head, and the last ten percent i only kinda get... I. Am. King. Dunce.

I don't think i get 100% what the term means but it's like "Something happening that seems like a wonder, even without a god doing it."

It's Latin for 'god in the machine', theatrical plays during the days of ancient Greece and Rome often ended with the gods descending from the heavens and basically magicking the story to a conclusion. The term is used to convey the idea that it's an ass-pull, the narrative spends it's time to build stakes, establish rules and develop weight only to have a magic person pop in and wave their their magic hands and *poof* problem solved...

i wonder if Bingoogus was right about the "keep memories"

I wasn't talking about her keeping the memories, Himawari says they don't know how she keeps them or recovers them, my comment was on how cutting up all those bodies and smearing blood everywhere and then hanging herself came across to me as her making a mess to screw over the janitors, the 'leave me alone' sign, i felt, made that pretty clear, she's doesn't like them and wants them to fuck off, but they don't, so fuck it, 'i'll make a great big mess for you bitches to clean up, and i'll keep making it for as long as i can, and when you get close to my location i'll kill myself, denying you any attempts to interrogate or torture me.'

Starting to think you have a spilt personality that doesn't like Sana, probably stans Chika or Io, does'nt like the penis attached to girls and writes theories. And he subconsciously blocked you from seeing his dastardly work.

What an absolutely horrifying concept... a version of me that thinks the meat toilet is anything less than the peak of waifu perfection... let alone a futa version that needs her nuts drained several times a day... away with this idea, begone spawn of darkness!

I have a feeling that you have a lot of company in this. I can say for sure that you have at least one person to go along with it.

 

[Unsafe]

Willing to play through but first minutes in, does it go to just being horny soon or does it stay weird?

This game is basically a surrealist deconstruction of the teacher-student harem genre. So yes, there will be plenty of sex in it. But you really stay or leave for the story.

 

[CovertCobalt]

It does become horny, but the weird is here to stay regardless. The sex scenes often aren't particularly titillating, either due to the narrator's tone/wording, or due to intrusion by horror elements.

I'd argue it's mostly cause Selly sucks at making titillating sex scenes and has absolutely zero interest in improving his skills in that arena.

It never goes to just being horny, the weird/deeper stuff is throughout. There's plenty of sex in the game and a lot of funny/flirtatious banter and such but it doesn't stop being weird lol

And whilst there's plenty of absolute degeneracy the actual sex scenes are mostly fairly tame, it's not really the focus of the game I'd argue. The grinding scenes are animated but they're all super basic.
