No. You can fk Lena all you want, just don't tell Jeremy "I'm falling for her" in ch 7. If you say that, then yes Ian will end up single in ch 8 since he drops both Holly and Lena, or rather they dumped him.So for Ian to not drop Holly like an absolute dick at the beginning of Chapter 8, he needs to completely ignore Lena from the start?
Cucks are like Smurfs. There's really a huge variety of them. Daddy figures, nerds, angry ones, push-overs and some who like pies in the face. The only thing in common is blue balls and a shared woman.Cuck is someone who knows their partner is cheating and gets off on it.
Some actively encourage it.
Lena has never been a cuckquean. While she was being cheated on she had no knowledge of it at the time nor got off to it.
I swear you I wasn’t trying to diminish the concerns of anyone, only the alleged number of playthroughs in which this situation happens. And that is NOT 50% of them. Just that.I think you're diminishing people's concerns here on the likelihood of running into this. Not sure why.
Again, I wasn’t trying to mischaracterize anyone concerns (and btw, you’re the one that said “Lena’s a sociopath”), only expressing my disagreement about precisely characterizing some of Lena’s possible wrongdoings as mere missteps, when IMHO are more than that; and how that can explain she not stopping to contemplate her own mistakes, being (in those routes) a person that previously -guided by the player- has shown quite a selfish and entitled behaviour.Save for a few on here whose main concern in the Ian/Lena/Holly arc was something akin to "Lena's a hypocrite" or "Ian's a weak cuck... WTF?!?"... I think that's a huge mischaracterization of what most who voiced concern last weekend were put-off about.
And if you’ve read some of my other messages about this issue you should know by now that, while I don’t agree on the whole scene being such an example of bad writing you claim it is, I’m in favor of adding the chance for Ian to confront Lena about Robert and wouldn’t mind some tweaks regarding her inner monologue in a few cases. So I don’t know what we're arguing about anymore, really, especially considering -as I said in yet another message- the argument has been rendered moot due to Eva taking another pass at it. We’ll see what she decides...Whether it's adding pushback from Ian in the Robert situation (or internal justification for his reluctance) or it's some mental gymnastics we could read in Lena's thoughts to justify her actions if she's slept around: something was missing and bullshit detectors went off.
I think you might be reading too much into that, I'd kindly invite you to maybe take a mental step back and realize not everything in this update turns around the scene that worries you. Eva at Discord has talked about the scene where she struggled, took a week to write, and caused a bit of writer's block and (spoiler alert) it’s not this one but the sexting involving Stalkfap/Ian/Robert/Mike: it juggles so many variables (from the previous stalkfap video and DMs with subscribers, the other partner involved in the sexting, Lena’s previous experiences with them, agreeing or not to make the custom video…) that it was hell to write for her.Oh. One more note. "Perfect is the enemy of progress" - or something like that. Eva knows there was some mess in this chapter and makes reference to her struggle within the dialogue throughout it. Another reason I was hoping she'd clean it up a bit before the Ch 8 final.
Dude. You took the "Lena's a sociopath" thing way out of context. It was said to illuminate why I didn't buy giving no acknowledgement in her mind of the situation as a plausible reaction. I thought it was clear in the explanation.I swear you I wasn’t trying to diminish the concerns of anyone, only the alleged number of playthroughs in which this situation happens. And that is NOT 50% of them. Just that.

The issues regarding the Ian/Lena dialogue has also been discussed on Discord, and Eva herself commented that she'd try to make some improvements. So I think it's safe to say that it's that particular scene she's talking about.Hopefully that's what she's editing. We're all just guessing at this point.
Adding text for Lena doesn't necessarily mean portraying her in a more sympathetic light though. Could just be mentally acknowledging it, as one would. Then, just as easily, reasoning/excusing her way out of it, as humans also tend to do. Unreliable yet plausible narrator. Can be done effectively in as little as one line in her thoughts, adding believable context without changing tone or character.Sounds like the scene with Lena being mad at Ian WRT Holly, I hope she doesn't change Lena's behavior but just gives Ian more automony in the scene, but it looks like she might try to portray Lena in a more sympathetic or understanding light, because I don't dislike that Lena reacts the way she does, just that Ian can't speak up and defend himself in that situation.
For the added sex scenes, my speculation is that it might be Ian/Emma if he refuses the drug, I think Lena/Jeremy sexting again after he gets off the phone with Louise might be something if it's additional scenes. I can't really think of any other interactions this chapter that could lead to sexual scenarios though.
Good to hear. Will be interesting what she does with it.The issues regarding the Ian/Lena dialogue has also been discussed on Discord, and Eva herself commented that she'd try to make some improvements. So I think it's safe to say that it's that particular scene she's talking about.
я думаю что хорошая идея если Ян там вообще всем наваляет и баб там раскатает под асфальт, ну кроме балбесов друзей, особенно того бухарика сына мераI start a realationship with holly on ian and maybe it is not a good idea too let ivy influnce hollyshe already drinking and talk about her kinks and do you think ian fight vs mike? that could make things even worse
I would not mind having the option of going shopping with Ian too. He has nothing but rent to use his money on.I wonder if she'll add any new backgrounds? Like the clothes shop for example.
check my profile i made comment in this thread with android linkWhich apk your talking about can quote IT.
The problem is not just that one discussion, though. There is also the LenaxHolly scene. If Ian stopped after Holly kissed him and Lena later forgave him Holly will bring Ian up and Lena will simply dismiss it as 'having nothing to do with Ian', after getting mad on Ian for just a kiss.The issues regarding the Ian/Lena dialogue has also been discussed on Discord, and Eva herself commented that she'd try to make some improvements.
