VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch. 13.1 BETA] [Eva Kiss]

[BloodyMares]

To be honest here, I enjoyed more GGGB at the beginning, even being slow as a snail, had some simil of life but when I quit playing was sex, sex, sex anywhere, choices were only to pick who to fuck in that scene...

Yeah, I didn't mind the slow pace either. I just think that the game really finds its place when Eric has his goodbye party and is at its best until his return. In this time period, Ashley is given absolute freedom and the choices are not focused purely on sex. Once Eric is back from the dead though, the narrative really makes a beeline to the finish line, jumping from one sex scene to the next.

Is there a way to change settings before opening game? It is fullscreen by default and it has some issue with my laptop and it just crashes before I can change settings ingame. I feel like if I could put window mode I could play the game but right now I can't. Would appreciate any tips and ideas how to change to window mode before opening game, thanks in advance.

You're probably having problems with the presplash.jpg file. Open the game folder and delete it

you don't see people going to other games with Female Protagonist and bitching about it

Yes they do, every single time.

Even worse if it happens to be lesbian themed.

Every single female MC game has comments saying "good game, shame it's female MC" or "Female MC no download for me".

Mostly when the female character is not a fuck toy.
When the female MC is even a bit smart, got complains about is "too drama" or once I read the complain "looks like a mexican soap"

 

[Higurashika]

Dunno if I can play it. I hate several main characters, it really sucks. Eva told she has a fine ideas for such setup, but after playing this version I just see the same thing I saw in other similar games. So I just dropped it for a while. Maybe later I will play it again. But I have no faith that she can make a good game with two playble characters.

well ... disappointed ...

for the good point :

the art is good
some reference to GGGB like the porn video , hi Ashley , too bad she is not in bimbo mode
aaaaaand that's all ( game in early development , no much to say about it right now )

now for the bad point :...

first , two character is not a good idea , or at least let us chose which one we want to play but don't force us to play both
the last game was re-playable many time so if you let us chose we can replay a lot of time and explore each character

the character are not very interesting right now , I know it's just the beginning , but in GGGB the character were far more interesting at the beginning
right now , the majority are just ... meh ... , and some of them are fucking annoying like the roommate friend of the male MC , he is just a idiot and every time he speak he make me want to punch him with his fucking s-s-s-stutter
and the male roommate of the female mc ( yeah I don't retain the name right now ) is fucking ugly , I know it's the cliché of the fat ugly nerd but right here its too much and more disappointing , he don't act like a total perv or a total sub at the boot of the female mc

and the sexual content , the most disappointing part , 1 hour in game a no fucking sex scene , just a dick , some tits and that's all ...
seriously , in GGGB in the first 15 min I already had fucked 3 different person ( or at least , had the choice to do it )
why the male mc can't try to seduce every girl he met at the beginning ?
why the female mc can't act like a total slut at the beginning ?
so much sexual opportunity missed in this story ..
I WANT CHOICES , I just want real choices , and here I just got choices that influence obscure stat ..

I hope the future update won't just continue the story but also add content to the already existing story

but right now I'm afraid this game will not be half as good as the first one , who was on my top 3 of the best porn game I've played ( and I played a lot of game )
seriously I've played GGGB 20 time and I'm still discovering new things , so it will be hard to beat

Now you know how we feel about most women in a male dev created game.

It's also the bane of writing.

I'm currently attempting to write a script for a game but i'm a lesbo so have absolutely no idea how men act in their daily lives. The only example that comes close is my older brother but "farts a lot and scratches his nuts constantly" isn't really much to write about.

I assume same situation with a lot of amateur devs/writers. Unless they have a ton of experience it's not going to be easy to write about.

I'd never be able to write a convincing male character. I've seen 3 maybe 4 female devs that can write well made male characters.

Other than that you end with shit like in Twilight where the creepy ancient vampire dude watches the schoolgirl sleeping and that's considered "romantic" .....





Can't believe my girlfriend made me watch those movies.

I think you shouldn't be male to write well made male characters. As male shouldn't be female to do the same. You just need to write an interesting person. Details from daily routine could help to create character, but their influence is negligible.

The problem is - in ORS characters are boring, there is a lot of water in their thoughts.

This was a pleasant surprise.

Text in the choices is so white I hope you fix it in the next update also if we get a chance to change textbox color to black will be good that's is the only problem for me

I feel people exaggerate the amount of differences that actually come from Gender (or Sex). Most people, regardless of sex, are very similar. As a writer myself, I'd advice to only think about gender when gender makes a noticeable difference. However, it'd be foolish to say men and women are no different.

As a teacher, I've had the opportunity to read several books about managing students and most books detail a significant difference in how to engage with male or female students. According to several sources (and you may take this with a grain of salt); males worry about their peers' perception of them, they will often think about the immediate consequences or effects, they have a harder time communicating emotions through words. Females are more vocal, they are usually better equipped to deal with emotion, they will think more about the long-term effects of actions, and they will empathise more.

Usually, when I create a character, I think motivations and objectives more than anything else.

I didn't feel that at all, in fact I feel like this is better writing of a male MC than a whole bunch of other games out there.

That's not true at all. Just don't fret about it. I don't know where the hell these guys came up with the idea that this game misses the mark with the male dialogue. I mean, every single male protagonist from a male dev is either a highschool misogynist loser who turns tricks and becomes a chad or is a businessmen/doctor/teacher who takes advantage of his workers/patients/students. We all know that the quality that comes out of porn games is really low and GGGB has probably the most well developed characters out there.

Just write whatever you feel like and I bet if you present yourself as a man these guys won't say a thing about your writing.

 

[Baka!]

In GGGB most routes did not have pregnancies endings and that is a shame in my opinion, I can come to understand that making Lena pregnant in the middle of the game is complicated and not recommended for the plot, but at least I would like that this time all endings have a choice of pregnancy, maybe in some romantic endings Lena begins to feel a maternal instinct and the player can decide to "take the pill" or "not take the pill"

 

[BruceLee73]

Wow... just wow.
This was amazing. GGGB was already very very good, but this already started on a whole other level. I did not expect that.

makes me wonder even more... no... actually falling in disbelief, considering what some others had to say here...

Love the art, love the new writing and story so far, love the doublesided perspective on events. What a challenging approach for a dev.
To me this was more than promising, this was high quality storming in! Cant wait to see more!!!

 

[Higurashika]

Is there any story? I just got bored to death after 15 mins so I've skipped most dialogs. And what I didn't skip was amazingly dull.

No, there is no story, delete the game and move on...

Speaking for myself, but I think that Eva's male characters are one of the best written in erotic games. They have much more depth than the usual dudebros with 11 inches long dongs and no internal monologue outside of 'me must fuck' 'me like boobs' and 'me very like TOTALLY NOT raping my family in their sleep'. Same for female ones. I pray every night to my saviour Eva to thank her for rescuing me from female characters that are nothing more than sexist stereotypes. I wish more devs spent some time writing their characters instead of just jerking off at their work.

please, feel like you just received 1000 likes.

I for one love this game. The art is nicely done and the writing is better than any of the recent games i played. (then again they were only using google translations...) Only thing if i may is suggest is splitting the story into 3 options (only) Male MC, (only) Female MC or Both M/F MC. It kinda got tedious in my humble opinion going back through the beginning of the story with the Female lead. To me it was odd controling both sides of the story at once. (that and i am not partial to playing as a female.... but all in all its a great start to a wonderful new game.)
