Good to see you'll still around BM. Take care of yourselfI hear you and agree with you full-heartedly. When Lena started denying Ian sex I had a Vietnam flashback of Ashley cucking Eric which I couldn't stand, but at least in that game it sort of made sense.
Eric stayed an absolute wimp and valued his self-centered desire to be a hero more than his relationship with Ash. Everybody in his life called that decision stupid, including Arthur and his sister. So cucking him felt like some sort of cruel punishment meant to teach him a lesson. "Oh, so you want to leave me all alone and ignore my needs trying to do some dumb shit, well, have it your way. I know some people who value me more than my own so called boyfriend". And in the pornstar route she logically dumps him because that kind of wimp can't really give her anything anymore.
Ian on the other hand, while may still struggle with self-esteem after his heartbreak with Gillian (even if he has more than enough distractions), is nowhere near being an Eric / Robert / Perry-level wimp (even though occasionally Eva tries to write him this way to give Lena more agency). He's an ambitious young man with a good heart and enough self-confidence thanks to his gym training, his creative pursuits, and even satisfying Lena's submissive needs (making her choke on his cock or fucking her silly). That kind of Ian is not someone who would just take this disrespect and not say anything (even if subconsciously it might turn him on for some mysterious reason). If my girlfriend suddenly decided to talk to me like this, I'd seriously consider that maybe I should dump her before she completely reveals her inner Amber Heard. Or at least have a serious talk with her about what the fuck just happened. It's jarring that Ian never brought this up and never had an agency to nope the hell out of it and dodge the bullet. Sharing kink is hot, being reduced to a sexless voyeur is not.
Don't know if it will change anything, but I shared this concern with Eva, and I hope the cuck / sharing route will at least be a bit more nuanced in the future and won't automatically turn into an abusive relationship where Ian loses his protagonist agency all because he couldn't stop himself from being too curious at the moment of vulnerability which Lena ended up exploiting selfishly.
P.S. Regarding the walkthrough, I've seen several comments asking about it. I'm working on it, but in a relaxed pace to prevent another burnout so don't ask for a release window. After all that's happened it's basically once again become a hobby that barely pays so I prefer to mix it up and do something more satisfying when I'm not in the writing mood. That said, I appreciate that there's demand, but in the meantime kudos to ffive for taking up the duty of helping the folks here.
P.P.S, still have over 40 pages of discussion to catch up on, so unlikely to respond to fresh messages (can necro old discussions that resonate with me just like this one). Send DMs if you have urgent questions.
This is a bit of a stereotypical assessment, but interesting. Go on, can you tell about the other girls? Especially interesting about Cindy and Cherry.Holly is the obvious choice for a love interest if you are going with a prosperous lifestyle where you will build a traditional family unit. I could see having two kids, and little farm house with a white picket fence with her, and some horses and a dog. Going to church with her every Sunday, and being happily married for 50 years.
If you want to have a "Happy Hobo" lifestyle then Emma is the clear winner. She is down for anal on a first date, identifies as a cockaroach, hates guys like seymour and is a bit of a druggy / hippie. Life wouldn't be so bad if you were living in a van down by the river if you shared it with Emma.
Hmm yes because clearly 2 months is clearly enough time to put out an update with so much story, branching, illistrations, and such... Clearly.When the next update? 2 mounth is already
You must be new hereWhen the next update? 2 mounth is already
I also hope that this is not the only way this scenario will progress further. I would say that it is possible, for Ian, to develop a cuckold / hotwife fantasy based on the events that transpired between him and Gillian. We can imagine the following scenario.... and I hope the cuck / sharing route will at least be a bit more nuanced in the future and won't automatically turn into an abusive relationship where Ian loses his protagonist agency all because he couldn't stop himself from being too curious at the moment of vulnerability which Lena ended up exploiting selfishly.
This is good to hear. One thing I would love in this game is for Ian to be able to befriend and work with Seymour and Axel. Some groundwork already seems laid with Seymour, but to be able to be peers w/ Axel on a sharing route would be a lot of fun.I hear you and agree with you full-heartedly.

Hey man. Thanks. I appreciate it. Good to see you back. Hope you're doing well.I hear you and agree with you full-heartedly. When Lena started denying Ian sex I had a Vietnam flashback of Ashley cucking Eric which I couldn't stand, but at least in that game it sort of made sense.

What are you talking about? you can play ian as a total wimp if you play him this way get beaten up by robert (high change this is also possible at the mma turnament with low stats) , dont throw away the pics of his ex ,jerk to other pics like alison and jeremy or cindy, dont talk against axel if he touches cindy close to her vagina at the photoshot , underperform with alison and have huge self insecurity about the HUGE dick seiz differences and many more......................Ian on the other hand, while may still struggle with self-esteem after his heartbreak with Gillian (even if he has more than enough distractions), is nowhere near being an Eric / Robert / Perry-level wimp (even though occasionally Eva tries to write him this way to give Lena more agency).

No dont do this pls they game already has way to many relationship restrictions that make zero sens we dont need mroe on top of thatDon't know if it will change anything, but I shared this concern with Eva, and I hope the cuck / sharing route will at least be a bit more nuanced in the future and won't automatically turn into an abusive relationship where Ian loses his protagonist agency all because he couldn't stop himself from being too curious at the moment of vulnerability which Lena ended up exploiting selfishly.
I think their complaint is that even if you don't play Ian this way entering the "cuck path" is something of an instant deal: you select the option and no matter how your Ian acted previously they're a cuck.What are you talking about?
Then you see no point in non-vanilla paths.I see no point in the path other than to cater to the fetishists.
like any other path this game has highly roleplaying in it play ian normal ,as a chad , as a huge cheater , play him as the biggest loser on earth and so on.... you can play him sucessfull maybe mma fighter later or book author ,pizza ian that got fired ,normal office ian and so on...I see no point in the path other than to cater to the fetishists.
I mean, kinda duh? A path which covers a kink is for people who are into that kink. That's the whole point.I see no point in the path other than to cater to the fetishists.
I see no point in having women in this game other than to pander to straight men and lesbians.I see no point in the path other than to cater to the fetishists.
Dude. He means more nuance for situations on the same cuck/sharing route where Ian doesn't play as a total wimp and has generally been a very worthwhile partner for Lena. Not a "Mommysboiii Approved Gold-Stamp" playthrough.What are you talking about? you can play ian as a total wimp if you play him this way get beaten up by robert (high change this is also possible at the mma turnament with low stats) , dont throw away the pics of his ex ,jerk to other pics like alison and jeremy or cindy, dont talk against axel if he touches cindy close to her vagina at the photoshot , underperform with alison and have huge self insecurity about the HUGE dick seiz differences and many more......................
you can play Ian as a HUGE WIMP so it would make perfectly sens that lena,alison,holly or cindy depends with girl ian is in a relationship with would act a certain way or that ian gets problems in the future with competition the writting hardly implys that so stop this relationship restrictions
I would even argue that you can play ian more of a WIMP like perry ,eric or robert if you want to play this way
No dont do this pls they game already has way to many relationship restrictions that make zero sens we dont need mroe on top of that
You can have a nuance for Ian, you just have to play him right. You are either in denial over your fetish or just being insanely bad at the game. I suggest using the Universal Ren'py Mod to help you out with choices.Dude.
