Also, there is nothing wrong with this game not being like GGGB. I liked GGGB quite a bit, but I'd say that this game is already better then GGGB - more engaging and better characterization, better graphics, not to mention the artful way in which character's stories intertwine. I'm not sure why we need to have a repeat of GGGB anyway? That story was told, and Eva isn't a one-trick pony - she's probably eager to use her experience from that game to create something better in this one.
still there is already a lot of reappearing stuff, like female MC's 2 gal friends who can't stand each other (Eva Jess / Louise Ivy), one is the unhappy girlfriend of someone and the other is the sexually open bitch, which both have an interest in the same guy (Dave / Jeremy). or a guy (Jack / Axel) who wants to appear respectful of others, but ultimately is focused on his own success, while also being a womanizer, yet falls for female MC as she is the girl of his dreams. or the guy (Arthur / Seymour) who loves to be in control, sees young girls as objects to desire and gets what he wants through shady practices.IMO, that would be self-plagiarism. Way too similar to GGGB that had too much thug presence. IMO ORS needs to explore storylines that weren't properly developed in GGGB like the sex club that was introduced for one scene and was only brought back in the mother's ending. I wouldn't expect a proper underground like thugs, but if both Ian and Lena become jobless and too broke to afford rent, then they might have to live on the street or ask for help from people they can barely stand (like Seymour or Axel). Also, Lena could steal money from the cafe, and that might lead to more potential thefts and other criminal elements, but nothing as extreme as drug cartels/gangsters.
though, i don't know who is to blame for that. us fans who of course put the two games in comparison, or Evakiss for syphoning off her first success?
anyway this is indeed not an ideal development for the game, but who honestly doesn't see a franchise or a popular artist and hopes the next thing they'll make is similar to the last best thing they have made? (like the next Resident Evil / Marvel movie)
of course obvious copies are bad and i can't say i like seeing them in this game as well, but i think they are marginal when looked at the game as a whole.
generally i would concur on Zedire's sentiment that ORS is better than GGGB in all aspects, except for the sex scenes, with all the gangbangs, moresomes and kinks. but i'm feeling confident, that's only a matter of time. (not to say the sex scenes in ORS aren't great as well)
here is hoping that ORS will delve into all the scenarios that GGGB left missing.
