Off the top of my head you have to let Lena kiss Holly when all 3 of them are at Ivy's place I have to replay to make sure

I've been trying out a few variations and still can't seem to get the scene you mentioned. Did you get any closer to finding out the right variables?

I don't relate to the various complaints about the multiple protagonist setup, but I think I intellectually understand it.

It doesn't work as well if if the player is locked into a particular viewpoint, such as some male players finding it difficult to relate to female characters, leading them to not want to play a female protagonist. Vice versa for some players with a male protagonist, although the female protagonist issue is more common because erotic VNs are a male-dominated hobby.

It doesn't work as well if some players might relate to one of the protagonists but otherwise doesn't care for what that protagonist is going through or trying to do. This happens for me with a lot of male protag games where the game is focused on something like trying to make a harem out of his family. I relate to being a horny guy, but don't care for that particular type of story.

It also doesn't work as well if the players put themselves really strongly in the shoes of one of the protagonists, and then switching protagonists becomes jarring. Maybe this is related to the immersion idea that Joe Steel raised. I tend to adopt the character's perspectives lightly, so I don't experience that jarring feeling, and when the day changes and the name changes from Ian to Lena or from Lena to Ian, I can mentally prep and switch. But I could see it being a problem otherwise.

I think multiple protag works best if you're flexible, can relate to both protagonists, are somewhat invested or interested in what happens to both of them, while not being too immersed in one perspective. When that happens, you can make choices for one protagonist while you as the player are more aware of the day-to-day context in which the other protagonist lives and what choices they're facing. It starts to feel like a real world with everyone facing complex challenges and circumstances, not just one person. I'm thinking of the scene at the bar where Ian notes that he heard from Lena that Louise and Stan don't get along, which is a superficial observation from Ian's perspective, but you (as Lena) have had actual interaction with that dislike and know how tense it is and how Lena struggles with that situation.

My general takeaway is that this chapter isn't that focused on advancing the story forward, as there was a lot of that in Chapter 9. Instead, it fills in the details, consequences, and payoff of the major choices you've made up to this point, letting dramatic tensions simmer and foreshadowing events to come. Maybe that's why the chapter is titled "The Path We Follow".

Although some dramatic things do happen (see Axel at the club, etc.)
I think this is exactly what she was trying to do. The original title (which afaik was Doors and Cages or something) gives a similar idea. You’ve made a bunch of decisions and that opens a bunch of opportunities for Ian and Lena’s relationships, but in other ways they’re starting to become caged into certain paths.

I don’t think we’ve really had a chapter where we’re mostly dealing with consequences of our decisions and how it effects other characters (Ivy commentating on Ian and Cindy, Lena’s stalkfap, consequences for Holly based on what you’ve done, Axels different responses if Ian’s revealed his relationship with Lena etc.) I thought it was really cool tbh.

If you don't act like a cuck, you don't get cucked. That's on you bro
Even if i dont act like a cuck, whatever I do, I wont get the enjoyment like Axel or Jeremy is getting from girls by playing as Ian. The maledom, kinky, hardcore, netori content Jeremy is getting will never be able to match what Ian is getting. Sure, If you are a lover of romance, Ian is the best of all Male characters. But, if you take hardcore sexual kinks, I think cuck comes first for Ian.

Kek.
Insulting Ian in the ORS thread is like kicking a bee-hive of average Joes.
Everyone rolls out a hyperbole or a straw-man argument to try to knock what you said back down.
It'd be nice if people actually read the comments that are made and responded to them accordingly instead of just spouting random truisms like they are refuting anything.

Simply talking about content break-down. A LOT of the in game content allows for the cuckoldry fantasy. Ian is physically smaller/weaker than the other men as a design intent. He is decidedly middling in a lot of ways as a design intent. He gets funneled into very specific routes and doesn't get much limelight with the gals. Meanwhile Lena can fuck anything that moves while still being with him. He has what, around 40% fewer scenes than Lena and a bunch of the scenes on his route are just him watching Jeremy's conquests?

Sure he can also be played in a way that fulfills the self-insert fantasy of the average Joe overcoming their deficiencies, rising to the occasion, and making the best with the gifts God gave them ect. The game focuses on passion, romance, technique, and stamina as equalizers for him being average in other ways.

His story as a writer is pretty cool.

Doesn't change the content break-down or his design much though. Game is much more suitable for cuck Ian than it is for an empowered Ian.
What u have said is absolutely right. And to those, who are countering that Ian out perform jeremy in MMF in Allison is a "choice". Not the default scene. Jeremy can outperform also. So, over-all, atleast in sexual hardcore kinks, Jeremy is way more getting enjoyment and content like lots of hardcore fucking, being a active bull, known for his dick.. etc.. and axel too.

All Ian is best is either for romance or cuck. No middle ground. Whatever you do, you can't make Ian as a maledom, hardcore, kinky strong fucker like jeremy who is known for his dick and stealing girls from Ian. I still don't know why Ian is maintaining good friendship with jeremy. If its my real life, i should have left that guy long ago.

Only content with Minerva (female Boss?) is a saving grace for Ian.

That is true, but that also ends up with the design logic of EvaKiss and why I've for several times said it wasn't very enjoyable.

In GGGB, you can have so much fun because you don't give a fuck about any of those guys, you don't care if you cuck them. In one playthrougth you'll be the right girl for one of them, in the next girl you'll be the worst girl in that guy's life. Since you are playing as the Female Protagonist, you don't feel bad for the Average Joe that goes to Somalia.

In this game, EvaKiss decided "you are going to play a Male Character" just to make it so the content with him is subpar or jealousy inducing, when everyone prefers to be the Bull.

Everyone here that enjoys Jeremy and Axel content views that content self-inserting as Jeremy, Axel or Lena. So they enjoy it. What was the point of having a Male MC at that point?

EvaKiss just decided: "You can either have bad content and feel okay, or you can have good content and feel jealous. Either you completely ignore Ian and skip through all of his content to finally play Lena, or you are gonna have a bad time". That's kinda stupid, to be honest with y'all.

It took a day. The new chapter has been released for a day and all the crusty weirdos flooded back into this thread to complain about how their Ian jerks it to Jeremy and can't get it up or about how their Lena is a hypocrite slut.
I played Ian is a normal guy and Ian as a cuck guy, My only complaint is, Why cant Ian make Jeremy a cuck (alteast a unwilling cuck unlike Ian) instead by sending him the videos (whether he like it or not)? Why there isn't a route where we can make the jeremy life as hell? It is not fair at all. Please dont say making jeremy a cuck isn't a goal. There is space to create type of content but Eva never cared for that. Because her fanbase is more instrested in Ian's Romance & Lena's corruption than anything else.
