The loyal Ian+Lena path is such a breath of fresh air. If not Lena is the cookie cutter slutty female main character that's is boring as stale bread. The path with Semyour is boring shit as 50 shades of grey were, mind you if you like that stuff but it's not original. Actual characters that behave normally in an AVN. WOW!!!
Im part of the small group that finds Lena and Seymour is the way. I think its the most well writen arc.

Not 50 Shades influence but the Eyes Wide Shut influence.

Even for generic romances Lena isn't particulary interesting. Mostly, because she has too much drama and is not in a position in life in which she wants to pursue a stable romance. I'd rather have Ian with Holly or Alison for a vanilla romance, since those girls are far more willing to commit (Alison only gets off the road if Ian rejects her).
What has to do with relationships, Ian has a huge advantage since he has more options to have a good relationship while Lena, with the exception of Ian, the other male characters are a disaster because they are losers, toxic or dangerous for her, so at the same time Unless they are with Ian, it is better for Lena to be single until she has the option of having a relationship with a girl (Holly/Ivy), right? :unsure:

Playing Ian is not bad per se. But in games like this it feels better to corrupt the female main character with our own choices. Meanwhile, playing a male it feels like a free harem at your disposal...which honestly is not that fun.

To each their own, but the only interesting aspect of that arc to me was whether Lena would manage to get out of the spiral if she was initially enthusiastic about it. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be option whatsoever, and at this point it gets increasingly likely it won't be. And i can't say the generic "a fat dude pays a girl to play with herself for him" is of any real interest as far as story arcs go, because this is very much a copy of what Lena is doing with her Stalkfap.

In what the loyal Ian+Lena path is original? You may not see that often in these porn games, but you see it in mainstream romcom

The Game Started with Two MC stories, One was for Ian and the Other was for Lena. Can say Many Toxic Male Characters made the Options for Lena a bit confusing for her future, And As for Ian (the Girls were Medium to Good).:whistle: Now after coming so far choosing one is a bit weird as they pull the Whole Game . As it will be more satisfactory if Ian and Lena get Votes close to Each other but there is a lot of Difference. :unsure:

It's true, that's why I don't like them being together even though I know that the best option for Lena is Ian to have a healthy relationship, I like to create opposite stories for them to see the differences, I would like to have the option to have a relationship with a girl with Lena, that would be interesting to me, right? :unsure:

As you note yourself, it's common in mainstream romcoms but not in porn games. And the romcoms generally don't feature this amount/level of porn. So as far as combinations of content and story go, this is pretty unique.

Imagine if romcoms airing on regular television had such graphic sex scenes.

I'm from a very liberal family but something like that just might make my grandma call upon the will of god to smite the TV.

Isnt that the point through?
Play Ian side as a dating simulator,play Lena side as corruption simulator.
I don't know if this is the point, but having only one intended playstyle for either protagonist is quite limiting/boring in my view.

Also, i really don't buy the whole "corruption" angle from Lena's side -- does anyone seriously think that having vanilla sex with Roberts or Mikes, or getting back to her ex-boyfriend is "corrupting" Lena in any manner, when she has already engaged in water sports with her college professor some few years back? She is simply hooking up, like any normal girl who isn't in a relationship would. Or maybe cheating on her clueless boyfriend if she gets together with Ian, but this, too, has as much in common with "corruption" as milk toast.

Corruption, such as I have come to understand it from this forum, is getting a female character with a limited interest/understanding of sexual pleasure, to indulge in such.
Lena is by design already a "fully liberated female" in that sense, having both an open sexuality and several kinks.

The only real corruption for Lena in ORS are the cheating options, since she starts out as the victim of it herself.

What about the tattos,the stealing,the drugs,being basically Seymour sex slave,isnt that corruption?:unsure:
Well, they all relate to the general theme I suppose. I can make an argument for each of them.
  1. Tattoos. Hardly corruption related, practically everyone from my generation or younger has a tattoo of some kind or other. If Lena's tattoos were specifically sexual in expression there'd be a case for it.
  2. Stealing. Sure it's corrupt, but it's not really the kind of corruption you're looking for in a porn game, right? The point of "corruption" is the submission to sexual pleasure and Lena's stealing is entirely unrelated to anything sexual. Ashley in GGGB is included in criminal activity after getting to sexual content on the gangster route for example. Lena's crime is more "civillian" I guess.
  3. The drugs are a corrupting influence if they make Lena do something she would otherwise not have. Lena is already perfectly comfortable with her sexuality, so there is nothing here to corrupt. Since Lena forced to choose to accept Billy's invitation when she's on drugs, I assume we might see similar themes of continuing to do drugs railroading Lena towards the more sexual options when it comes to at least Billy.
  4. Seymour. Lena is already, by her own admission, sexually submissive. Seymour might be paying her to do very sexual things, but so far they aren't all that different from things she can already choose to do independently, nude modelling and making sexual content for others viewing pleasure.

I actually wonder about it, in the sense that when Lena and Ian meet in the game's prologue, she complains about her boyfriend being angry with her for making him jealous, and how they fight over how possessive and controlling he is. While we presume that the boyfriend in question is just an asshole (and well, he is) i'm not excluding possibility that Lena was actually quite open to flirting with other guys/girls, and that Axel's complaints and jealousy weren't entirely unwarranted.

In other words, Lena's shock/trauma could be very much coming from the fact she was the one who was cheated on, and less so from how she feels about cheating in general. This would also explain to some extent why she never stops to consider what she's subjecting Mike's girlfriend to, when she goes all out to flirt with him and seduce him. And how her internal thoughts when she cheats on Ian are all basically "i know i shouldn't be doing this but i just don't care because i'm so damn horny".

No hate for Ian but not many prefer to play as him


View attachment 3374726
Most of EK fans are from GGGB(FMC Game) and the most easiest way to indulge in debauchery? Yes that's right through FMC cutting MMC directly as now FMC have the liberty of choices to choose from. MMC is a middle-man in every female corruption game out there. that's why people prefer Lena over Ian. "Why do MMC have to choose FMC when FMC can choose herself" mentality. And polls show exactly that many prefer Lena than those who enjoy both and than those who don't enjoy Ian stating that many people don't want Ian' content to be cut from the game 49% and 33% only 17% don't want or just want Ian to be removed, that's minority.

I guess the player will be the one to define it.
