Turret Have you added any part 3 to your loyal walkthrough?
We have a lot to do at work, so I do the walkthrough now and thenn but I hope to post the updated walkthrough sometime this week.
No, the first time you can't, she goes into the room with them no matter what. Only second time you can pay so that she doesn't.
You can avoid it! As I mentioned, it is far from the the most logical or intuitive path to choose, but you can keep Clara loyal. But I am really a bit pissed that Slowburn hardcodes some important events so your choices mean nothing then. At the Clara/Amy event I tried every combination, even went back several chapters to nip it in the bud, but I could not circumvent it.
The Clara in "12 Days" was exhibitionistic, but had a hard limit how far she went.
Up to now, you could play towards such situation with e.g. the daring dress, loyal path. But if such hardcoded events like Clara/Amy pop up more often you will loose. What the frak is he thinking? Likewise with how some traits are "awarded". Suddenly e.g. Clara or Betsy have kinks, even if you stopped situations where she could gain them.
This probably cannot be avoided. And that's not the case, the more he does some weird stuff. For example, she shows her breasts, then does it more than usual and you have no control over it?
As Said, I do not know what he is thinking when he inputs really weird events you have a hard time circumventing, if you can at all.
One thing you would not necessarily see essential for a loyal playthrough is that you must encourage her exhibitionist side, e.g. " a little bit kinky", but counter anything going beyond repeatedly. Also several chapters back when Clara is flashing you on the dancefloor the first time, you should encourage her shwoing off, but tell her you dislike the flirting with others.
It is not easy to get one of the 4 loyal paths, but hopefully slowburn starts to restrain himself on the amount of hardcoded events you can never circumvent. It is fun searching for the loyal paths, but if the Dev starts throwing logs between our legs, that is not a good move and reeks of NTR through the backdoor.
