VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch. 12.3 FULL] [Eva Kiss]

[| Vee |]

Alright something's to note (This is Chad Ian in IanxLena without couple run):

1. Game is in alpha so you guys should take a chill pill. Some bugs ffive already mentioned.
2. Minerva scene if you're only fucking her aka no love than this was last score and there will be no more in future (in Chad Ian route). And on this part Ian didn't talked about help in book competition.
3. I'm not on bad Jess route just played the scene using URM
4. It seems in order to save Cindy from Axel Ian have to throw "I have feeling for you" ball in Cindy's court. There are 3 additional variable counts for Cindy. Cindy relation +1 Cindy relation +2 Cindy relation +3. Cindy relation +3 is only available if you are on Cindy Love route or Lena no couple route and this is the variable associated with "I have feeling for you, will you atleast think about it".
5. Tournament is bit buggy(forgot how you get to buggy part) and a bit random too that's why people don't like as the scenes you get keep rotating. Tournament part was meeh in my opinion. (Too much replay-ish)
6. If you are on Cindy path and Alison path you automatically deny Alison.
7. Ian is behaving as Chad (It's fucking time!)
8. Alison scene is using V9 variables even though you get on Alison route in CH11 and I think is buggy too.
9. Lena wasn't with the Scooby group so she might join them later or this could also be a bug
10. Jeremy is not invited

I might be missing something.

It's been a while since I've checked in on this game so I played through chapter 11 and the chapter 12 alpha in one go. This is an interesting update, especially for the Ian/Cindy route.

I have to say bravo for how the Ian/Cindy romance was handled here. I'm a little conflicted since it is my main route, but it makes a lot of sense. Regardless of your path, it's pretty clear that Ian's interest is somewhat one-sided. Considering their relationship begins through infidelity while she is dating one of his closest friends, and Cindy is an imperfect character as a whole, I'm glad it is being represented accordingly. Seems like regardless of your choices, Cindy goes to the club with Axel and flirts with him. (I'm curious if anyone knows if this still happens on a Wade/Cindy route with their relationship strengthened; I'm assuming yes).

It's interesting that mentioning Axel breaks up their relationship and causes massive point loss, but using the Wits option to call her out keeps the relationship intact and doesn't even cause point loss. (I ended up losing points on my canon route because I decided not to choose 'play it cool'; unsure how much a 'perfect score' actually matters). Seems like that is probably the right choice for a true Ian/Cindy romance?

I didn't play through the Jessica route, but watched the scene... what a grim and depressing outcome. I can see where Eva is going with it, but damn. Sad.

Overall, the game seems to be getting back on its feet. Feels like the summer vacation might be the break between stage 1 and stage 2, where Ian can move out and some of the relationships can start coming together. (Is there any update on whether a time skip is planned?)

Curious about others' insights.

If you are on Cindy path and Alison path you automatically deny Alison

I notice this too wtf,all that time focusing on Alison and you make Cindy the canon choice,EK!?

I believe this is done as Ian can fuck only a couple Li in 1 day

1. Minerva
2. Cindy
3. Alison
4. Jess
5. Cherry

But a choice could've been available. There is a possibility we might get to choose between Cindy or Alison but I would rather not hope.
As Chad Ian said "Cindy takes precedence"

--Ivy is still stringing Jeremy along, with just a little kiss and nothing else! I laughed out loud at that one. Nicely played, EK.

I can imagine Ivy cackling after that night. She got all the leverage in the world over him.

Tournament is bit buggy(forgot how you get to buggy part)

Is this the one where you get combo locked by the other dude and the time(2 mins) just runs out? I got it once on boxer Ian. I can't replicate it lol.

Which chapter is this from? I feel like things might have changed since I started my playthrough. Are you referring to the Wits choice in ch. 12 alpha ('she's playing with me')?

Yeah a choice would be nice,in that particular save i have Ian picking Cindy over Alison makes little sense,Cindy was the side hoe while Alison was the main LI.

Ch 12 Prologue if you are on Cindy path after sex scene choose option 1 and there is new menu with 2 choices . Choice 1 have Cindy relation +3 and choice 2 have Cindy relation +2

IMO Chad Ian would go for Cindy as she find her way more hotter than Alison who just is going bimbo and shit and as this was final chance for Ian to confess and protect her from Axel but choice always appreciable.

Yes! IIRC it's that one, I also got it one time.

I didn't have any in-game relationship with Cindy (they were neutral), but in the new update, Ian goes to her house, where they start fucking. Why is this happening if Ian is in a relationship with Holly?

Yeah same for me, I think this has to be a bug or something. In my Holly playthrough Cindy hates me (a frowny face icon) and yet they still bang when he shows up to her house. Is there some wrong decision I made at some point?

can you tell us the lines or at least paraphrase the lines of chad ian?

i don't use walkthrough for most of my playthrough so i don't actually know whether any of those Ians are chad or not

on which route or of which part?

 

[Gicoo]

How do you get Bad Jess scene? Ian met her but she told him she's busy.

 

[KurtPitt]

No Alison and no Jeremy at the beach

 

[camube]

on which route or of which part?

or just generally. How does Chad Ian react to certain situations?
i don't really know what kind of variation dialogues normal ian or chad ian have. i don't really notice it that much, unless it's with Alison.

Cuz there is one playthrough where that Ian said "Alison yap but i didn't listen" or something

 

[ffive]

So basically you say we cannot get the scene no matter what ?

No, if your Ian isn't rich you can spend your remaining money on gifts and Perry, to bring it down to 0. Then even with dad's stipend you should meet the condition. Or just use the console to temporarily set Ian's money to 0 and restore it afterwards.

 

[ffive]

how do you win the tournament fight?

For a grappler Ian, try to stay on the defensive for the first round, dodge/block/defend incoming hits, don't bring the fight to the ground too early or too often -- doing it just once with a throw for some damage/points is enough, don't let the opponent learn your moves. Basically, conserve your strength while letting the other guy tire himself out. In the second round take him to the ground on counter, pressure him then go for submission. If he's sufficiently tired he won't have enough strength to resist, and will need to tap out.
