VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch. 13.2 Alpha] [Eva Kiss]

[dengl]

So all in all, Cindy is a deeper character than you think and she can be loyal, loving, supportive girlfriend too. If you are expecting unwavering, unconditional, unlimited loyalty and love without giving anything back, then you are delusional. She did what she could with Wade, if she can get the fun, respect and love from Ian she won't(well should not, if EK won't insist on cuckfest) cheat on Ian.

I agree but if EK continued to be driven by patreon, I'm afraid that's how it is with the amount of "cuck Ian" supporter. I have high amount of playthroughs including one with slut Lena + sexless cuck Ian. But this is a game where we shape these 2 MC into what they are and I find it amusing whenever I see people go on "Ian can only be cucked". Lena don't begin the story as a slut nor Ian born in the story to be a cuck. They are everything players mold them into by choices along the game.
Seriously people gonna dethrone Stan for that? Bro faps to his roommate's photos in his room and peep while her boyfriend railing her ass. Everything happened rather early in game as well if there's one who begins the story as a cuck, it's him.

I have to agree I am not a fan what game become with last 2 episodes. I don't play slut Lena path, there was almost no content for me in the episode.

Since I played almost every paths for 2 MC I have to say if you would have witnessed all dramas going on, and then go back to the loyal Ian X Loyal Lena path. It's sweet as fuck at the last scene epilogue knowing every drama and shits happening around don't affect the little couple who's in a world of their own.
After playing all Lena paths and all Ian paths my top pairing will still be Loyal Ian x Loyal Lena for now.

 

[Slick Bean]

PLaying Ian and Lena against the Matrix of undending heartache this game turns out to be on many other paths
gives a sense of accomplishment, you feel like building something.
There is constant drama surrounding Jeremy, there is nothing worthy to gauge out of his path.
There is constant drama surrouonding Axel, there is nothing to get outta there also.
Seymour is a constant asshole and he cannot in good faith patron any artist, as his interests in beauty
is shallow and deprecated - jump on the NUDE MODEL TRAIN AFTER AXEL HAS ALREADY SULLIED/SHAT THERE.

Yup, Seymour the consumate cuck is a trainwreck the likes of whom Ian could end up as if players just do not care.

 

[camube]

i don't have a single playthrough where Lena is back with Axel again.

The sense I get of Lena from early chapters makes it seem to me like she really want to distance herself from Axel. Moving away, told Ivy not to tell Axel where she lived, etc. So i don't have a single playthrough where Lena is falling for Axel.

On the other hand, the sense I get of Ian is more half-half about Gillian. So on many of my playthrough, Ian is not over Gillian yet.

 

[zoomzoomzoom]

I don't have a single playthrough where Lena is back with Axel again.

This is my favorite version of Lena. Axel really didn't deserve a second(?) chance.

 

[Xupuzulla]

Im curious about something,for the people who play Lena as "pure" do you ignore the lesbian content?
For example the Louise-Lena mistress route,wich is one of the best in the game imo.

 

[mommysboiii]

what is the most likleyhood axel goes after cindy if ian is dating her?? I tried to play as soyboys bf as I could but my lena sleeps with everyone so axel told her he only loves lena is he lying/manipulating???or dosent tell lena that if lena ignones him?? maybe the chance is higher that axel goes after her than or does he say the same thing??

I have 2 main routes, which I consider pure, both of them. For the first one, both Ian and Lena is only committed to each other and they don't sleep with anyone. Second one is other females are fair game for both of them. Louise-Lena also 3some with them, attempted kiss with Holly, plus cockblock(is pussyblock a term?) Holly for every occasion. Also even though I am somewhat reluctant about her, Ivy content too. Ian goes for Allison, Cherry, Cindy, Emma if possible Holly in near future. I chose open relation option with it too.
I try other routes too if I find them interesting but don't have any save for them. Also never played Jeremy, Seymour, Robert or Axel routes for Lena.
Btw, I think game is in dire needs for decent guys. Every single one of the male NPCs are either complete douchebags or complete losers. Can't say the same for the female cast.

It's not about her being pure tho. But, more about not being screwed over or being taken advantage of like an idiot. Lena helping Louise with physical affection does make sense and if Lena had a guy friend who wasn't any of the dipshit who Ian is not a part of then we could explore that option. And besides, from lame pick-up lines to blackmailing is soooo unappealing for a sexual prospect. Ian has fewer sex scenes but at least they are so much better. If Lena could hate fuck Axel and inflict some kinda of physical injury then I'm game. For example, in Superhuman you could polymorph yourself into a girl and fuck the college bully and n°1 insufferable idiot and then proceed to break his dick. He was such an asshole, that shit was satisfying as fuck.

Nope I didn't. That's how I went for the Lena Ian threesome with her fucktoy and having Ian to know Lena is her mistress. But honestly a lot would still considered lesbian to be cheating but I simply stay true to what EK writes. Whenever Lena has lesbian sex be it Ivy or Louise, they didn't set lena_cheating = true. So.... I still considered that as Loyal Lena btw.

Honestly Jeremy plays the major part in the game to the extent his actions are almost dictated by the player. He doesn't force himself onto Lena path like Seymour or Axel, the real initiator for his path is Lena from player's choices by literally pushing her onto that bbc. Player can cockblock him with alison_jeremy_block variable when it's set to true during their talk, JeremyXEmma doesn't happen if Ian fucked Emma and don't bring it up and don't encourage him to go for it, JeremyXLena doesn't happen at all if player don't want it, JeremyXIvy required approvals from BOTH Ian and Lena (aka player choices) for Ivy to stop trashing him in the epilogue. We will see if he fucks her in ch12 or not with Ivy allowing him to get on her car at the end.
With Jeremy winning almost every poll as best male cast, we should only expect more bbc content not less. But then again, EK did a good job for letting everything that happens on the path to be decided by the player though. You can literally have nothing to do with him at all in the story too.

 

[Esti]

True but that's the thing, nobody seems to care about Ian's value in the heart. Axel is everything good on the outside but rotten to the core. As a matter of fact Ian appears to be the "most decent" guy compared to every other male chars in game.

The thing is "most decent guy" isn't sexy. "Bad boy" is. That is sad reality: people who would value decency from the get go are rare.

nah, lesbian content is ok, game don't even consider it as a cheating. I also think at some point Lena will deliver all her lovers to Ian, just like she did with Louise

 

[Esti]

When she was out with Ian she was fun, sweet and nice. When they went to art exhibit she was genuinely interested in, attentive to Ian. Never shown what you said about her anymore than others.

She took Ian to the exhibit because she wanted free guide, lol. And she can be decent sometimes, she isn't a monster., after all. She is just a "cheerleader type" girl with potential for something deeper or something even more shallow.
1) That was dev intention from the start. And GGGB is miles more unrealistic than ORS. As a matter of fact, I tried to replay GGGB yesterday. There is such chasm in quality (ORS is much better) that I just couldn't.
2) You got me wrong. I tell what I tell about her not because of her relationship with Wade. There she acts understandable if bitchy. No, I tell all this because of how she interacts with everyone else. Where she is demanding, needy, egoistical and so on.
3) Never said that she slept with Axel. I just think she will, because while everyone can find him sexy, not everyone will undress on their first photosession without consulting the boyfriend. She was completely enraptured, couldn't say a word of protest. She wanted to believe all the things he told and to do everything he wanted her to. And, sure, she is pulled towards Ian somewhat. Problem is, she is pulled towards Axel so much more.

 

[Futaglit]

I'll limit myself to a Top Five:

I totally share your feeling with the character of Holly that slowly get more and more kinky.
I just fear how far Eva might bring her.

And I'm happy to see that Natasha from GGGB hasn't been forgotten.

 

[Xupuzulla]

You are not wrong...
I think the only lesbian relationship EK thinks is serious is Lena-Holly(?)

 

[Socrambus]

No, she invited Ian to the museum because she wanted to spend time with him and she chose an activity that she wants to enjoy and fits into her vision of what an "artist type of guy" like Ian would enjoy too. You can see this quite clearly if you choose some dialog options:

 i "You should ask Wade instead of me."
 hide phone_cindy
 show phone_cindy_sad at lef3
 c "I've already told you, he will say no..."
 $ fian = "smile"
 i "Try him. You won't know unless you give him a chance."
 if v3_cindy_dance_signs:
     c "But I was hoping to go with you..."

 c "Hey Ian! There you are. Thanks for coming."
 "I greeted Cindy. It was impossible to deny how radiant she was looking in that outfit..."
 i "I wouldn't miss it. But I'm a bit surprised..."
 i "How come you called me all of a sudden?"
 $ fcindy = "n"
 c "You know stuff about art, and after our conversation the other night, I figured you'd be the right person to go to the gallery with."
 i "Oh, so you missed my company already?"
 i "I never knew you were so fond of me..."
 $ fcindy = "shy"
 c "Don't be an idiot. I just thought you'd tell me stuff I don't know while watching the paintings and stuff."
 i "Oh, so you just wanted a free tour guide? You're the worst."
 c "Nooo, it's not that, idiot!"
 i "Then what?"
 c "I just thought it could be cool to visit the museum with you."
 if ian_go_cindy > 1:
     i "That's what I wanted to hear."
     c "Oh my God, who are you, and what have you done with Ian?"
     i "Come on, let's go."

You put that with the outfit she chooses to wear and to me it's clear that she's at least a bit interested in Ian.

I personally don't, partly because is hot and might open future threesomes with Ian and partly because playing Lena that way has too little content. I used to play the Louise-Lena mistress path until I saw Louise's reaction to Ian during the threesome if she's not on that path. I think a possibly obsessed with Ian Louise opens interesting possibilities.

The thing is "most decent guy" isn't sexy. "Bad boy" is. That is sad reality: people who would value decency from the get go are rare.

It might be rare when you are 18, 20 or something like that. When you are nearing 30 and you live a life with adult responsabilities, most people value more than that. Take Jeremy case, for example. He's tall, muscly with a huge cock, that's cool for a one night stand or casual sex. But he's also an idiot that does most of his thinking with his dick and works as a waiter in a night club. What are his future prospects career wise?, honestly I'm surprised Eva hasn't introduced a possible porn actor path for him, it seems a match made in heaven.

 

[camube]

Ian Louise

how does Louise reacts on a non-mistress path threesome? compared to when she is Lena's sub?

 

[Esti]

a bit interested in Ian.

Never denied this. She is interested in Ian. But she is more interested in Axel.
