I don't think ORS was ever meant to stay "vanilla" it just doesn't start out with Lena in a gangbang and Ian on a cuck chair because the format of the game is to escalate the sexual content, just like GGGB did.
The content is certainly different, but I don't think Lena becoming Seymour's perverted muse is any more vanilla than for example the porn or gang routes in GGGB.
I think it's just a bit more grounded than GGGB which automatically dials down the kinkiness. Ashley was hanging out with famous people, used as a street gang's stress relief and dealer, cucking her bf with his dad, lost her cuck to Africa which is probably a first, fucking HER dad etc all relatively quick story wise. I think GGGBs premise of a good girl potentially going right of the fucking rails gave Evakiss a lot more freedom to get crazy. The entire point was how she could (potentially) go from 0 to 9001 fast.
In ORS corruption and depravity seems like much less of a focus compared to relationships and character. Ian and Lena's sex life is mostly run of the mill hook ups, relationships, kink and cheating. Their friend group is mostly out of the limelight as well, no Jacks or Tyrones. Even slutty Jessica is more reserved than her previous version.
Though of course still plenty of time and room to ramp it right the fuck up.
Should I play the game or just watch gallery scenes? i am confused because there are many 5 star reviews and also a 2 star review with 48 likes. What should i do?
No guarantee you'll like it but this is definitely more in worth the play vs just unlocking the gallery territory.
I wouldn't put much stock in a review's upvotes good or bad. Negative reviews for popular games always get a lot of upvotes. Probably because people are more interested in finding out what may turn them off a game. I do that myself skip past all the 4-5s and read the one 1-2 star review.
