Why? It's the same photo tracing method as in GGGB but much better quality.
"photo tracing" as in taking a photo and drawing upon? For my taste, the characters are bit too stylized and popping up. Nevertheless, the art is good, specially the backgrounds (saw on picture on the previous page).

A Defence of Robert

In my opinion Robert gets way to harshly judged. So let's go over some points.

boring: Lena really only talks to him on their 2. date. She is bored because he is 'mundane' and 'irrelevant'. Then she asks him about her job, which he doesn't know yet. She asks him about his love live, which he is not comfortable talking about and she asks him about his passion. Well, he doesn't have one. So what, not everyone is an (unsuccessful) artist burning with a deep passion. Lena btw when asked the same can answer 'writing songs', 'modelling', 'making money' or 'enjoying life' which is actually the same he says.

bad lover: So he can't get Lena to cum. But isn't that at least as much because of her not being ready than him being clumsy? Also I can't remember anyone badmouthing Cherry or Allison, both of which can't get Ian to cum, either. The second time, Lena cums (as long as she doesn't worry too much about being late) so he can't be all bad.

creepy: So he wants to fuck Lena. Anyone here wants to throw the first stone? And you barely even know her. He sees her every day, her ready smile, her sinew neck slowly turning, lightly tilting, her hair shimmering in the ambient light. Her slender arm stretching out, bending forward, her tight pants stretching, her breasts sliding slowly against the velvet of her blou... Err, where was I?
Ahh yes, He is not interested in a relationship beyond sex. So what, so isn't she. He is her rebound guy after Axel. She is using him as much as he is using her.

Without Robert Lena wouldn't had sex yet. Thanks to him we got some really awesome scenes. For this alone I salute him.
Will I drop him like a trice used tissue the moment he gets in the way of anything else? Of course! But I will not hate him.

Addendum:
A (short) Explanation of Arthur
He is so delightfully perverse, he is the most refined, the most sublime of her possible perversions. While most other paths are all about how many huge dicks Ashley can shove in her orifices, he is about cheating on her boyfriend with his father, or tricking Iris into having sex with him.
Robert's view of his interactions with Lena are very transactional. There is nothing wrong with desiring sex with an attractive woman. But expecting her to put out just because you pulled a few strings for her is damn creepy. He is also irresponsible since the girl who gets fired seems more experienced in the job than Lena. All in all, Robert does not have many redeeming qualities. He is not a good boss, not a good enough lay, not particularly appealing physically and not interesting enough for us to give in to his advances as Lena. Yes, ORS is a porn game and the goal is to see the protags having plenty of fun but it should be fun. Dating Robert, even virtually, feels like a chore.

As for Arthur, he has one thing going for him that Robert does not. He is a taboo. Cheating on your boyfriend, who is in mortal danger, with his father is kinky. Robert does not scratch any kinks. It is pretty justifiable to hate him given all we know.

Yup. And 3dcg backgrounds - very traditional combination for our time.

I use the Ian parts as comedy relief between the sexy bits with Lena, which hopefully there will be more of soon. Sort of getting uncertain about Lena's options, though. Louise and Ivy are kind of looking like sloppy seconds or damaged goods right now after Jeremy using them. I suppose there are a lot of first encounters yet to take place, though. Lena hasn't met a few of the people in Ian's path yet, for example.

I figure you can end up with a pretty good writer Ian, if nothing else pans out for him.

I would totally agree with you for GGGB,is my best game and my favorite, the ΟRS you don't think he can do it.first because it has a lot of protagonists,and secondly so far no interesting sex scenes.
Personally, I would prefer only Lena as the protagonist.everyone else seems boring to me. (sorry for bad english)
I'm sure once we are up to 0.10 the game will heat up and be in full flow like GGGB. The buildup is bigger for ORS compared to GGGB. It to be expected with double the main characters from GGGB.

I too would have prefered only Lena but I find it interesting with the double protaganists. Lets see how it turns out. You and I would not be playing this game if it wasn't for the faith in the dev.

Idk if it's only me but this did not happen before updating to 0.3
Also my last save didn't work (Scored with Alison) so I went 15 minutes back to the club scene and now I can't get into her pants no matter what I do, Jeremy always gets to her first...

Still get an error with Cindy in the bar - I think it is the same as in the alpha.

Do we know if the saves will work from now on or do we need to restart for the next episode again? Also is there a date for the walkthrough update?
