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

[GokutheG]

I think all the options other than Ian publishing his book with the writer he meets when going with Holly or Lena's musical career after the underground competition are busts.
- Billy's proposal sounds like bs. It will end in a prostitution ring
- Wildcats is the same as Billy but already cemented.
- Seymour Publishing Company is commercial and corrupt. They are mostly profit oriented.

I really think Billy's route is going to turn out that his modeling agency will turn into a porn company down the line and the hook is going to be Lena trying to talk Ivy out of going deeper down that hole. The only way I see it having a positive outcome is if a smarts based Lena is able to guide Billy in the right direction to take the business because he's been shown as being a complete idiot.

I'm expecting that Seymour is going to offer a way to rig the competition in Ian's favor and he'll have to decide whether to accept and sellout like the others or decline and have to rely on the strength of his book and his relationships with Minerva and Victor to counteract Seymour's meddling.

Lena's wonderful hypocrisy. Kissing Holly is an almost unforgivable crime because she's her friend, but she's okay with giving Jeremy a handjob

Some of the choices seem a bit weird to be honest. For instance if Ian is dating Lena, he feels quite ok about cheating on her with Cindy, but apparently having a threesome with Jeremy and Alison is not ok. And there's the threesome between Lena, Louise and Jeremy, which apparently isn't classed as cheating ( if Lena and Ian are dating). I also don't understand the logic of Ian being able to cheat with Cindy and later Alison, but not with Emma. Lena has to stop having sex with Robert because Ian despises him, and knows they've been hooking up. But Lena is clueless about Emma. So why is it ok for Ian to continue fucking Cindy and Alison, that Lena suspects has been or might still be involved with him, but the person she's totally unaware of, somehow she's completely out of bounds?

If they get serious, Ian has to leave Alison, but then he can make up for lost time; And if they're serios Ian xLena, it's Emma who stops fucking Ian, whether you like it or not hahahaha. The fact is that in the end all this has to end up biting both of them in the ass.

All I got from this update is that Cindy isn't worth it.

 

[bitofaperv]

Update was a waste of time tbh. I'm going to start to wait for finished chapters. This bit-by-bit that I was outvoted on makes the game feel kinda shite.

 

[Erectosaurus]

And there's the threesome between Lena, Louise and Jeremy, which apparently isn't classed as cheating ( if Lena and Ian are dating)

Pretty sure that threesome can't be obtained if Ian and Lena are officially dating. I do agree that some logic is a bit wonky regarding where both Ian and Lena draw a line with cheating. For example if Lena and Ian are dating Lena refuses to do anything with Jeremy, yet has zero issue sucking off some random bouncer.

 

[bitofaperv]

he should , he does look like a bottom

Who's the girl in your avatar? Does she do porn?

I did not yet encounter a lesbian scene with Louise; probably because in both games (promiscuous and chaste), I kept Lena as kind to Stan. In the promiscuous game she does have a three way with Jeremy and Louise and at one point pushes Louise away to corral Jeremy's penis for herself.
In the second game, I had Lena and Holly leave Ivy to watch a movie at Lena's place and that is where the sexual romance between them begin. I found it hotter than staying with Ivy in a threesome (but did a save in between in case of a fizzle).
One logistical problem with EK's games is that you cannot make a choice and then hit the back button to undo it. I do not understand why since the coding seems simple enough; just continue a linked list or stack of scenes. So instead I wind up with a plethora of useless saves without remembering their histories.

I happen to like the word "plethora"; I was not sure how I was going to work it in to my conversations with people this weekend. Thank you for that.

Keeping Lena kind to Stan, doesn't stop you having lesbian sex with Louise. I always have Stan's relationship maxed out, and it's never stopped me hooking up with Louise. You either have to tell Louise about Jeremy's infidelities and not go home with Mike the first time you meet him at the club, or make sure that Lena doesn't give Jeremy a blowjob during truth or dare at Ivy's apartment, so that Ivy does it instead, causing Louise to break up with Jeremy. Both those events will lead to Louise kissing Lena at their apartment, and as long as their relationship isn't in the red, that will definitely happen.

It can still happen if they're dating, regardless of whether their relationship is open or not. What you said about Jeremy, only happens if you don't have the threesome. If Lena has the threesome with Louise and Jeremy, then there's an option to give a blowjob to Jeremy as well as Marcel, even if Ian and Lena are dating. For some reason you never did the threesome, and that's why it wasn't there. Maybe because you missed a Jeremy related choice earlier in the game, which omitted the possibility of the threesome?

Thank you...this provides a way to do it without being unkind to Louise by telling her about Jeremy.

 

[Erectosaurus]

It definitely can happen if they're dating.

Really? The conditions for that scene require Lena to wake Jeremy up, and doing that automatically has her turn down Ian during his confession. Unless the flags changed and I'm not aware.

Checked the walkthrough and I was half right. The wakeup scene isn't needed but Ian and Lena being in a relationship does lock you out of the scene.

I never tried to be nice to both of the roommates at the same time(if Lena is nice to Stan i try to be mean with Louise and the opposite with the lesbian Louise save) so is good to know you can do it,i have to start a save with this.
This probably means that a Louise-Lena-Stan threesome can happen in the future

i do not see how that can happen with a consensual Louise; she is so anti-stan.

I'm not sure that is a threesome that will ever happen. Because Louise basically doesn't like Stan, and at best tolerates him. Perhaps, if Lena is dominating Louise, then it might be a possibility?

Louise is supposed to be leaving Baluart, to spend the summer with her father. So it could be a while, before we get anymore content with her.

 

[Ilcoriglianese forte]

However, this game is wonderful, we have two characters of opposite sex who are not necessarily related as a couple, which is already a contradiction, why adopt this system if the two characters have only a 10% chance of having a story, which doesn't even lasts, the rest is 90% fucks or relationships with the other characters, so I find him incomprehensible, then always returning to the two characters, we have a good boy Ian who has had his disappointments, he also has a moral in some ways opposed to the character of Lena, who is basically drawn as a whore on various levels, in principle she is treated in the story as a cock-loving whore, then there are versions that she is a nymphomaniac whore without respect from anyone in the game, if this isn't sexism , and don't make the moral that if a woman fucks and has fun she's a whore if she does it as a man he's a hero, that's not what I'm describing, I'm describing the vision that the Dev gave of these two characters, to Ian from a moral and a heart, to Lena alone a fiery pussy.

 

[Ilcoriglianese forte]

Summary of the game, take a group of well-built guys, all in the same circle, and write a story where all these characters fuck each other, then there are lesbian scenes, but coincidentally no gay ones, hahahha

I mean im the mistress route is possible i guess,Louise basically becomes Lena sex slave.
And yeah Louise is leaving,Stan and Lena are going to be alone soon...

 

[Lord Bradley]

I like to imagine a scenario that likely won't happen, but I would like to see play out at least once...

Cindy goes on the photoshoot trip, has a wild time involving drugs, sex & rock'n'roll. All the while sharing stuff on social media and texting friends (revealing just enough details to keep decent reputation with friends).
Wade confesses that this time apart has made an effect on him and he misses his girlfriend and wants to improve himself and their relationship. Ian is there to console him encouraging them to get back together.
Cindy returns home with doubts wether or not she wants this wild life she thought she craved after going in it so fast and rough.
...in my playthrough here she gets back with Wade and in later conversation Ian asks Cindy "where is my thanks for getting you guys back together and motivating Wade to improve himself for you?" as he continues having Cindy as a nice lay for rest of the game, maybe even up to and during Wade x Cindy wedding.

is there any alison scenes ???

Lena is only a nympho, if you make her that way. It's quite easy to make her into a completely faithful partner of Ian. Also Ian can be equally as promiscuous and immoral as Lena. If you choose for him to be a bad boy, then that's what he'll become. This idea that Ian is good and Lena is bad, is entirely dependent on choice. Your choice. So I don't understand why so many people seem to act like it's the only path the game can take?
