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

[barglenarglezous]

A few questions.

I've finished ch. 1 and 2 and want to know how much of ch.3 exists now - is there a reason to continue now or should I wait till there a sizable chunk of content.
And how done is the game as a whole? First two chapters already were rather long, and the game feels like it is getting close to a climax of the story.

At a minimum, Chapter 3 is halfway done, I suspect we're a lot closer than that. We might even see Chapter 3 end next update (March), though I think we'll more likely see 1-2 more updates until it ends.

We're about %25 done.

Damn, is this game complex? Also, before i start this game, are scene events missable?

Yeah, missable scenes are missable and the game is already long as fuck.
Seems to me that missing scenes is a better choice from a moral standpoint most(all?) of the time.

Damn, hope i remember all that, also, i'll use the guide mod because i dont really wanna miss any scene events but its probably inevitable.

I feel like Maki and Haruka might be better left unboned in the end

 

[Asderic]

How to clear all Makoto’s event? In ch3 I have one red line cross event after the parallelogram.

yeah and Sara also. Really all the adult Women (imani, wakanna and her lady friend are not "fuckable" yet)

Next dorm war Tsuneyo has to compete in karaoke and sing Country Road.
I feel like all the girls are better by their relation with Sensei. Like they would hurt more without him than they will with him, even Yumi, only the wizards I worry about.
Also I think the last side girl might actually be Ayane's mom.

I suspect that the last side character is the best maid in Kumon-Mi.

There was a whole thing about Ami and Uta agreeing that Sensei must not meet her under any circumstances, and typically you don't toss something like that in unless it's going to be relevant later.

you know you would

it has REAL beams too... not a flavor one, just a lazer one, but it does have a flavor compartment

The best maid in Kumon-mi is already one of the girls, did you not watch the last dorm war?

You obviously don't have eyes. She kept flip-flopping back-and-forth between the tsundere treatment and the deredere treatment, and consistency should be one of the bare minimum requirements of being a maid.

I can't believe you are all actually sleeping on the best maid of Kumon-mi and of all time-loops, the one and only Geoffrey

What's the solution to the quest "word of the day?" I've gotten the "swallowed a spider" part already, but don't know how to progress.

I'm unfamiliar with the works of Shel Silverstein, so I'm curious as to what this is referencing? Thanks. These types of references always tweak my curiosity.

I'm unfamiliar with the works of Shel Silverstein, so I'm curious as to what this is referencing? Thanks. These types of references always tweak my curiosity.

IIRC, this is when he's referencing Where the Sidewalk Ends, which is a metaphor for the shift from the carefree nature of youth and the responsibilities of adulthood, and how every child understands there's a moment where they'll have to grow up.

Adulthood is portrayed as a dark and scary place, and by contrast youth is seen as bright and fanciful. And the poem encourages adults to view life through the lens of a child to find the joy in the world -- which is essentially what Sensei is doing.

Not spoken within the poem is the inverse of that -- children viewing the world the the eyes of an adult and feeling the existential dread. Which is what some of the girls are starting to do -- Makoto in particular, but a few of the others have as well.

I'm not sure what the guard rail reference is. I don't recall any references to one in any of his poems.

I think its in reference to his poem 'the bridge' where it talks about a bridge that can only take you halfway to a land of unicorns and magic and you have to do the last few steps alone.... its thought to be an allegory for suicide by some people

if you walk halfway across a bridge and it only takes a few more steps to get to your destination and you have to take those steps alone...
yeah, think about it
the guys a poet, you think about word play and hidden meaning a lot, i seriously doubt he wrote that without knowing what it could/does allude to
