VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch.13.3.4] [Eva Kiss]

[thedude]

I have considered Seymour/Lena/Axel and I think there is a chance that could happen if it continues along this line of Seymour's photo-shoots assisted by Axel, and a sub Lena who likes both of them.

Considering what we saw of Axel and his reactions to Lena, I don't think it's likely he'd involve her in a threesome with another guy. He seems to want her all to himself and only willing to share her with another girl.

Axel and Seymour is a very interesting duo. They both want to corrupt Lena for their own selfish reasons. Although now they are working together (even though I suspect Seymour is using Axel without the latter being aware of it), it might end up leading to conflict betweem the 2 down the line, which could potentially lead to a very interesting scenario.

So it should be clear that after update 0.9 nothing more will happen in 2021 regarding ORS.

I wouldn't be suprise if this is a startegy from some devs streching their last updates allmost to the end of year so they can have an excuse to not work on the next one till next year you know holidays, burn out, end of year yada yada, i mean you guys think that she'll start working on the next one this year, very doubtful... and there are a few very popular games who coincidentally have a late octomber, start of november releases if somthing else doesn't show up...

 

[JoJoPool]

Nah, didn't you hear? She'd be kicking herself in teeth if she didn't release it by the end of September. So it's going to September.

well, she said before the end of september.... it could mean september 2022 or 2023

 

[JohnnyKiss]

an update was relesed what 3 mouths ago if I was eva I would take the money and go to egypt

It's actually over 4 months ago but yeah. You are right.

 

[JohnnyKiss]

When was update 0.8 released? June or July?

It was July 5th. You can check the Release Date on the first page. But that release is for the Final Version of the Chapter. Alpha and Beta were released few weeks before that date.

When was update 0.8 released? June or July?

22 may almost 5 months

If chapter 9 doesn't have significantly more art than chapter 8 it means her working style is very ineffective. But I hope we will be rewarded for waiting not only with a high quality update but also with bigger amount of content

 

[St0rm1]

She is struggling with the writing, not the art.

 

[godoff95]

She is struggling with the writing, not the art.

Even splitting the protagonists isn't possible.

 

[DDDIsReal]

She is struggling with the writing, not the art.

then she should hire someone to help her, time between updates become more and more long at this pace even l&p will be faster

 

[mommysboiii]

if she says it will realse def this month does she mean the alpha version or the fullversion?Because if she means fullversion than we can hopefully see the alpha end of this week or next week

 

[BorgiaBou]

even l&p will be faster

 

[aykarin]

She is struggling with the writing, not the art.

I know, but if the whole development process is longer, then it means she has more time to produce art. Sometimes the best way to overcome a deadlock in writing is to do different tasks for the time being and return to writing later, after clearing your mind and rethinking. I know I may sound overly optimistic, but I hope she didn't waste these additional months only on "overcoming writing difficulities"...

if she says it will realse def this month does she mean the alpha version or the fullversion?Because if she means fullversion than we can hopefully see the alpha end of this week or next week

I'm sure she means the alpha version

You are a strong warrior and mastered the art of edging for this update I am sure eva will reward you and mention you in her credits for your great service patience and you risking your life edging for waiting for this update I salute you brother THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR

I think she has help with coloring and translations, that's it. Also more cooks is not always a good idea when everyone will be working from their homes.

Having extra help might not be ideal from her perspective, but the alternative is probably a lot worse for everyone and everything involved.

As long as Eva has the final say and the communication is smooth (she's gotta make sure she gets people who know how to be professional and are reliable), hiring additional workers is better then her keeping up the same crazy workload for 10+ more chapters and who-knows how many more years that will probably take.

Also, considering that the volume of work is unlikely to become less with all the routes she needs to write, if she doesn't make some change there is a good chance every update will take roughly the same amount of time as this, and she's only human - that constant pressure to produce results is not gonna be good for her mental health in the long run (if it isn't already wearing). It can lead to creative burnout and even abandoning a project altogether if things get too hard.

Sorry to be such a downer, but I genuinely want Eva to retain her sanity through the process. lol.

 

[victkh]

&p will be faster

nope

 

[patachoucs]

ModeratorsDeletePls could we perhaps finally get people's posts only complaining about updates delay be erased please ? It's getting annoying to have so many not even talking about the game but rather complaining about not having their freebies faster.

Considering what we saw of Axel and his reactions to Lena, I don't think it's likely he'd involve her in a threesome with another guy. He seems to want her all to himself and only willing to share her with another girl.

You're right, but maybe in this threesome scenario, it's not about Axel getting what he wants, but Lena getting what she wants for a change.

I mean, we know Axel wants Lena back, and that he's unlikely to get her back as he currently is unless she goes down the corruption path and is up for anything (in which case she probably wouldn't be exclusive to Axel anyway, so he could take it or leave it, and in this case he'd be taking it); or an Axel who is in love with Lena cleans up his act in some way so Lena will reconsider him as relationship-material. In the latter case, it wouldn't be unreasonable for a Lena who's become more assertive (sick of being the 'silly naive girl who was cheated on) to have her say in the sort of sex the have, and we know she's not against a threesome anyway, since she was okay with going along with the whole Cherry arrangement as long as she thought Cherry was just 'some girl', and not fucking Axel on the sly. So maybe she'd be open to threesomes in the future providing they're transparent about it - no more lying - and she gets to choose the third party sometimes too.

Anyway, that's just how I saw it potentially working if there was gonna be a Seymour/Lena/Axel threesome, and providing the player was going to get a choice about how much control Lena has over her life and her relationships (if they want it that way).

EDIT: That being said, you're right in that it would be hard imagining Seymour being willing to share Lena in any scenario, at least where he wasn't the one pulling the strings in the situation. Can't really fault that logic.

Axel and Seymour is a very interesting duo. They both want to corrupt Lena for their own selfish reasons. Although now they are working together (even though I suspect Seymour is using Axel without the latter being aware of it), it might end up leading to conflict betweem the 2 down the line, which could potentially lead to a very interesting scenario.

That does sound pretty interesting, too.

My theory is that Eva worked too much on Chapter 8 and in order to avoid burnout, she took a longer vacation. The real development of this chapter probably started in the last week of August. The release date target: end of September. Development went on and now we got a more realistic date: end of October.

It is what it is.

I feel either she needs more help or the game will need to be downscaled. I think she has already mentioned something about the possibility of axing people like Ed's path if needed and I think she's rapidly getting close to having to make that decision. Maybe the thing with Stan is axing his route now that I think about it
