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

[swells3674]

So what are the odds of Mike being Gillian's BF now? I don't feel like combing over the script, but Gillian said she came to town a couple months ago, right? What was Mike's timeline?

It doesn't line up, I'm pretty sure. Gillian left the town right after she was caught cheating, and only got back "a couple months ago." Meanwhile Mike has been in town since the very start of the game.

There is a bug on the gym training for the tournament, right?

To master a skill, you need exactly 5 points in that skill. But to train a skill, you need to have <4 skills. You can never reach 5 normally. And the lead up conversation before that choice has conditions that only go up to 4 points. If you had 5 points (I probably cheated), they will say you suck at that skill.

Edit: OK I think the bug is on the condition required to pick mastering jiujitsu/kickboxing. The condition should be 4 points instead of 5, because mastering a skill means having 5 points.

This doesn't make any sense, in my main story I was playing Ian x Holly with Lena being a slut, even though she's encouraging Holly to be with Mark it doesn't make sense for her to accept, I hope it is a bug because the most "certain" thing to happen in this scene would be for Lena to encourage it but Holly automatically refuses because she is already in love with Ian, the change in her personality changed too quickly for it to make sense...

This bad script bothers me to the point of wanting to redo my main story but choosing Lena LOL

It also happened on my Holly save, but I think it's an interesting twist.
Holly admires Lena on every path. If Lena is slutty and encourages Holly the same way it would make sense for her to try it at least, even if she's happy with Ian already. But she seemed unsure and would have refused if Lena didn't push her towards it. For Holly to hook up with Mark she needs to be encouraged to take his number earlier and then needs to be pushed by Lena to go to the date, it doesn't come from nowhere. Nevertheless it also surprised me and I like that the game still offers unexpected twists that far into a path. It could only be a bug, but I quite like as it is.

_______

More generally about the update: I pretty much liked all I've seen. The Lena x Ian scene, the Lena x Ian threesome and the 2nd Holly x Ian scene where probably my favorites. The Gillian scene on Ian's cuck path looked also pretty good.

Gillian being back adds some drama on Ian's side, which is good as the dude had it fairly easy so far. It'll be interesting who gets revealed as her boyfriend. I like the idea of it being Lena's brother, it would fit the story with him being in trouble and Gillian suddenly coming back and it would turn Lena and Ian's first meeting into such a fated encounter.

The situation about Lena's parents is interesting and it offers Seymour even more leverage over her. Same thing on Ian's side, it looks like Seymour is bringing his pawns in position. Have to mention Charles at this point, he could be an former partner(or the like) of Seymour and have blackmail material that offers the way out for them. Also Lena enabling Ian's threesome fantasy eases her guilty conscience while also opening the door for her devils threesome and future encounters with Louise & Jeremy. That's quite devious of her.

Nitpicks would be, that the chapter does feel a bit shorter than previous ones. If Lena is on Jeremy's path, it would have made sense to have a scene with them in the chapter as they're both eager or it. Lena buying the bbc dildo would also be appropriate by now. On Holly's corruption path, I would've liked to see more than two pictures from Ivy, maybe a video. Some small stuff with Emma x Ian or Emma x Jeremy would've been nice. Another Lena Stalkfap video with Ian or whoever would've been hot but maybe too soon and not fitting timewise. I think they could've filmed their encounter after she came back, but she was probably not in the mood at that point.

All in all a very good update and maybe Eva will add some scenes for the final version to round it up.

It doesn't line up, I'm pretty sure. Gillian left the town right after she was caught cheating, and only got back "a couple months ago." Meanwhile Mike has been in town since the very start of the game.

Then I'm very convinced that Lena's bro is Gillian's BF. It just fits too well. Plus, another big clue from a narrative perspective is that Gillian shows up on the same chapter where Lena's bro gets fleshed out a bit.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

OK, so an update: this option ("Open up to Holly") requires Ian to destroy Gillian's pictures all way in Ch.3 (v3_gillian_stop) If you pick it, it sets flag ian_holly_love to true while other options set it to false. If the love flag is false then Holly will talk about not being sure the relationship is working, if she's developed some feelings for Lena, like i suspected.

So, the moral of this: purge your image gallery often, folks.

Fuck. Why did I save this pics?
No wonder Ian having cuck dreams about Gilllan now
Thanks man. Now i need go back to Chapter 3, and better to play with a guide. Game love to surprise players

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

Why do people intentionally lie and say the update is only 10 minutes? Theres like 10 fucking paths. This isnt a single path only game.... If you do that your going to hate how short every update is. Theres tons of content in each different path. 10 minutes my ass

It's probably whining from a Ctrl brigade, my first run yesterday was two hours.

 

[jduk]

I don't mind Holly's slut route as long as we also get an alternate path. My only issue is that her things keep happening in the background. Like, if you're telling us that she fucked someone else then atleast give some sort of option to play that full scene and not just give some pictures. Like, I found the car bj pic really hot. But, it'd have been even better if we got the whole scene either from Holly's perspective or from the other guy's.

Totally agree with everything you said

 

[jduk]

I mean yeah that makes sense but there should be a way to watch the "behind the scene" scenes for secondary characters. Hell, Alison's threesome had more pictures than Holly's . Maybe this could be a gallery-only feature where we can check out how the whole scene played out.

Someone has to tell that to Eva as a feedback. Mark pounding Holly on all fours was amazing pic too. I would like to see what else he done to little Holly's holes. She looks completely cock drunk in the after pic.

 

[jduk]

I will insist without being certain ofc, that Mike is Gillian's bf. And he will probably be Ian's "enemy" down the path, who's gonna win Lena over. Already those 2 are antagonists for Lena's horny calls. If you go for the cuck path it's probably Mike fucking another Ian's gf. If you go for the stud path it's who's the alpha, a big fight between Jeremy, Axel, Mike, Ian and Seymour down the line.

 

[WatsonJohn]

Holy shit that Gillian scene was so hot.

 

[Chemish]

It looks like Ian the chad finally has his own corruption route.
It seems the way to make it happen is to be more dominant with her, instead of loving (hearts) every time.

That variant of Alison also appears in the scene on an Ian/Alison love route, so long as Ian, Alison, and Jeremy have their threesome.

 

[Turret]

In my PT, my Ian "broke up" with Allison by phone. And in the Cherry art event, Ian and Perry comment on her hair color, but it was her usual color. I understand now that she's supposed to be blonde hmmm

Yes, seems to be a coding error with the hair several times. In my playthrough Ian and Alison are in love and she gets her new hair and dress style because Alison does not want to look like a wallflower compared to e.g. Lena or Cherry.

I can't remember exactly how long Mike has been in town, or if that was ever revealed in some convo with Lena. So maybe it fits Gillian's timeline, or maybe not.

But we know Jeremy tells Ian that she was just with "some guy." If it was Mike, Jeremy would recognize him for sure because they work at the same club. And this dialogue isn't based on any variables, so Jeremy has no discernible reason to lie to Ian on a best buddies route.

 

[Gicoo]

If its not open relationship, can Lena still cheat?

At this point, the better question is how you can not cheat in this game.

I started with my Ian/Lena monogamy file and...

Well you can be either lovey-dovey or dominate Alison into being a blonde bimbo

(or just play hard to get and watch her go out of her way to get a piece of that Ian ass)

Don´t know if it is a bug or another play variant, but I got blond Alison at the art gallery with Ian + Alison really loveydovey and had a threesome with Jeremy (Ian a stud then), no dominate moves I am aware off.

 

[desmosome]

So I finished my 2 main routes: Cheating Ian + faithful Lena, and Cheating Lena + faithful Ian.

I'm picturing how things are gonna implode on those routes. Jeremy is a loose-lipped dumbass, so he might let it slip on either side, even if it's not on purpose. Ivy is like omniscient and seems to know pretty much every juicy secret lol. We still don't know her true nature with absolute certainty though.

The biggest time bomb for Ian seems to be Alison, imo. Alison is absolutely obsessed with Ian on ALL routes. Her character is entirely devoted to making Ian jealous and trying to win him over. Combined with her passive aggressiveness and low self-esteem, she has the capacity to just intentionally bomb Ian's relationship with Lena.

For Lena, I think Axel will eventually lose his shit and drop the bomb on Ian lol.

Said this a long time about, but apparently got glossed over: Alison will be the yandere bitch who will more than likely go stabby stabby in the near future. She is fucking OBSESSED with Ian and can't take the fucking hint. -Que vietnam AL flashbacks- This will not end well.

If I'm not mistaken, to even get the cuck dialogues, you have to enable it on chapter 10 during Ian x Lena sex scene. If Lena fucked some other guys, she will say something along the lines of, "Ohhh, this is one of the best cocks I've ever had."

Then you get to choose a response as Ian. The very obvious "One of the best...?" is the cuck choice. If you don't pick this, all the subsequent cuck dialogues don't trigger.

This game has two protagonists with incredible flexibility. Almost all complaints about how the characters act are self inflicted. Obviously, you get a bit less control over the NPCs, but even they are responding more or less naturally (according to their personality) to your decisions.

I did not select the chapter 10 sad boi option. I did not see the Gillian dream, and still Ian feels doubtful with his inner monologues. However someone else in the thread said that the footjob scene is the flag in this chapter, tell Lena that you find it weird talking about other dudes and it gets set to zero.
Like I said, Lena can fuck whoever she wants - I want all girls to be whores, I want Ian to be a gigachad but I dont want cuck shit.

Maybe he has... For many potential reasons, i mean he didn't tell him he saw her in the first place...
