VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch. 12 Full] [Eva Kiss]

[Socrambus]

The thing is with EK, she does things on a whim. She doesn't fully plan shit out as it seems. Much like the reworks of Wade, Stan, the Prologue. Wade was fine before, but all of sudden 'oh here you go, Wade is now jobless and wants to be a gamer pro'... Or 'oh here you go, Stan is gonna get "reworked" to make him a bit better' (Fun fact: Didn't change him one damn bit.) Not to mention the OG prologue was fine to begin with, but all of a sudden 'oh yeah, I redid the prologue, here you go.' And of course there is the three bar scenes inloving Ian and Ivy getting reworked without any explaination (OG-Ian if semi friendly with Axel could hang out with him, talk to Ivy for a bit, gets a kiss the cheek/1st Rework-Same deal, only both flirt/2nd Rework-Forced to hang with Jeremy instead of Axel, no flirty moment with Ivy). Or even the whitewashing of Jeremy's bro from Black to White, which made no sense or even got a real explaintion as to why.

I didn't know about Wade's rework. Could it be to make the audience more sympathetic to Cindy's cheating?. It's a common trope on games to make a LI's partner either a total monster or absolutely pathetic so the LI's cheating with the MC it's easier to be accepted well. I find the opposite take refreshing and hotter like what Love, Lust, and Rock 'n Roll does making the MC's girlfriend very nice and easy to like.

By the way, does anyone has a version of the game before the reworks?. I would like to play it, out of curiosity.

The thing is If the Dev don't have a story set in her mind and is progressing story on get go than we see very same problems which are with ORS, bringing bullshit characters up to the par by doing rework/s which even dev herself didn't wanted to do but still did it, bringing cameo characters AND including them in main story, Bringing GGGB character (ORS have ton of characters already), original story characters getting sidelined, character inconsistencies and issues with character development/s (as highlighted by Socrambus regarding IanxHolly, IanxCindy, IanxEmma), problems with branching. than cutting down chapters from 20 10 16 and again saying that they may increase them from 16 to 20 and may even exceed 20 in a span of a month.

OH i forgot the infamous writing-block

This all happens when Dev don't have a proper mapped-out script/story set in stone but rather moving story on whim at what Dev feels at the time and to top it all on discord you can't even criticize dev on any of it.

Thing is reworks happen all the time in games, but they are not usually obvious because we only see the final version, we don't see the whole process. I am thinking for example in Danganronpa being quite different to the original prototype (Distrust). And you can see it in tv series where they change a character after receiving feedback, specially after the pilot.

Considering how jealous, possessive and hypocritical Lena gets when her love interests pay attention to other women (Axel with Cherry and Cindy, Mike with his gf and Ivy, Ian with Cherry, Cindy and Alison), she could also have cuck content. Though I'm not sure if we have a woman assholish enough to cuck her. Ivy has the best personality for it and kind of does it with Louise, but she is friends with Lena. Cindy and Alison are just too bratty and childish to do so. Minerva could be a excellent candidate, it can also spice up her route which is currently fairly simplistic. If Minerva is a bitch to men, why not also towards women?
At this stage of the game its too late to develop it, I guess Lenas submissive trauma is the equivalent of Ian whining about how Gillian was taken by a another man -> leading to potential being a cuck.

I find Minerva's behaviour towards Ian as the most bratty and childish of all the characters. She behaves like a first grade kid annoying his crush to show interest. And I don't really get how Ian's trauma with Gillian's cheating can evolve to him being a cuck. But I don't understand cucking very well, maybe someone with IRL experience can explain.

She is relatively intelligent in manipulating and toying with people, so I consider her more ruthless and than Cindy or Alison. Man, this game lacks evil female characters, we don't really have a female Seymour or Axel. Agnes is probably dropped (and not even part of Ians story) and Gillian doesn't seem like a crazy psycho ex either

And I don't really get how Ian's trauma with Gillian's cheating can evolve to him being a cuck. But I don't understand cucking very well, maybe someone with IRL experience can explain.

Him occasionally lamenting about her and especially his dream in chapter 11 when she gets fucked right in front of him pretty much seals the connection beween him being upset about her cheating, but also potentially getting turned on out it and embracing the self-loathing and getting toyed with his inferiority.
Cucking is mostly a porn fantasy for instant gratification that barely makes sense - especially the million NTR scenarios that just don't work in RL when people use their brains and think about mid and long-term ramifications of cheating or doing it with a dubios partner. I assume IRL its done through swinging and requires mutual arrangement and communication so thats its clear what the other partner even want.

I want more Alison , Ian and Jeremy Content .

How do you know she's not sticking to her own story? Yeah you don't, you just don't like it.

SerHawkes Leave them be. Repeating same things over and over won't make them understand if they don't want to understand in first place as same things are shoved in their faces with proofs already many times.

Lets discuss other things in which every can participate. Ease up the tension in thread!

I agree with you, but I think Ivy currently has a better potential for that role than Minerva. If Eva wrote Minera with a different motivation, I could see it. Like for example writing Minerva as a more dom character blackmailing Ian for sex, just make her clearly and unapologetically evil. But she chose to write her as a little bitch to awkwardly express Ian turns her on.

I get the reasoning in game, but as you said, I find it difficult to translate that reasoning to RL. That's why I asked for someone with RL experience on the matter, to understand if the reasoning might be valid and I just don't get it or is a case of "game logic" not making sense IRL.

Thank you very much.

Gicoo and Socrambus the only character with the potential of literally cucking Lena where Lena is cuckqueen as of now is Ivy. Minerva is not upto par to do that with an unknown character (no LenaxMinerva story progression except Lena can mock Minerva behind her back with Ivy scene). Ivy has the most possibility or EK might throw in Jessica in Future as EK mentioned IanxJessica who is also another capable character of putting Lena on cuckqueen path.

So possible are 2 candidates:

1. Ivy (as of now)
2. Jessica (may be in future)
3. or BOTH

I have my criticisms about the direction this game's story is taking, but EvaKiss' care for the quality of the material is undeniable. I believe this is one of the only games available here in which your choices REALLY MATTER and change the course of the story considerably.

EvaKiss deserves these numbers, which will rise even higher after the release on Steam.

True ,but am just suprised cuz the growth was so rapid

If your wife cheats on you, you're a cuck. Albeit not the kind that likes watching but a cuck nonetheless

There are a couple of definitions of that word, yours is perfectly valid. In this game, Ian is a cuck (sad smiley option, cuck flag) if he enjoys getting cheated on. He can also getting cheated on and not be a cuck.

That is literally what a cuck is by definition, if another person steals his girl whether he knows or not, exactly as dolfe67 said. If he knows and enjoys it whether just watching or participating too, this falls into netorase or simply sharing.

 

[dontcarewhateverno]

Yes you are whinning.
We already understand you despise EK and everyone else who calls you out on whinning.
But you keep repeating everything hence you are whinning, just move on dude lol

 

[sophiamontagna]

Cuckoldry has been twisted due to pornography, undoubtely. But I like how much of a slow burn it is for Ian.

 

[Sergejil]

Quick question, is Jessica the one from Good girl gone bad?

yes

Has anything been added in the new update? The game ends at the moment when Lena leaves the club where she met Axel and Cindy.

Apparently English is a hard language it seems. Then again it explains so much with people here in terms of intellect and IQ.

For future reference, the term is 'Whining'.

Sure. It seems like you know all about 'Whining'.
Why dont we test your IQ and intellect on my native language, huh

 

[BunnyDevil]

When do you think Ian will propose to Lena or ask her to live together? I can't wait to see how one of them will come back home and find beloved in bed with someone else. That would be a lot of fun, lol.

And if you're looking for a game made in a similar style to ORS and GGGB, you can also check out my game Unholy Angel (sorry for shamelessly promoting myself here). EvaKiss is one of the developers who inspired me to work on my own project.

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

yep if you're fucking cindy, you're cucking wade. If ians fucking someone else while fucking lena or vice versa, they're chucking each other
