or maybe this is if ian is not in a relationship
The scene is from an earlier chapter when the boys hung out.
what does this mean boiss?? is this alision and ian in a relationship?? about what is alison talking about at the end what do you think????and alision seems different to jeremy
It's from Chapter 2. It happens if Ian goes to lunch with Alison instead of Holly. The dev just shows off the new UI changes with the screenshot.

ohh I remember ohh no my small pipi got all exited eva jebaited me
I was already speculating
Why?
Is this the mindset that your girlfriend is never allowed to have thoughts for someone else and that she needs to be pure?
It doesn't pay off for you because you've already seen this context, but that's very self-centered approach to a game which is played by many more people, quite a few of them brand new.
The changes are so miniscule that they wouldn't lead for a new player to have a better experience of the game.
Well, Eva evidently disagrees or they wouldn't have bothered. So, you know, opinions etc :v
I agree that the changes are not too great. First of all there is no background separation, which will make the text harder to read. There are also elements which are not needed - the characters heads. I play as Ian, I don't need to see his head every time he sends a message. If the chat was not good enough, at least go all the way with the implementation and do it like this:
The personalities and motivations of the characters are not set in stone. Based on your decisions, they will morph accordingly. This can lead to some retroactive changes - for example, if Lena sleeps with Axel it is established that she is not over him. If she does not sleep with him then she has moved on. There is no single 'canon' answer on how she feels about Axel.
Looks like my prediction has aged well, so far.
To be fair about the development time, there was the prologue that released between chapters and for me it definitely has made the wait for the new chapter feel shorter. I hope Eva Kiss fully adopts the approach of having a prologue release before the main chapter release. I also remember a previous chapter Eva Kiss wanted to release Ians part first and then Lena's later, but her patrons voted against that, so doubt that will ever happen.
But that's the exact point. In Eva Kiss' previous game, the protagonist was basically a blank slate, almost without any character traits before our choices defined them. In ORS, the protagonists are instead a few years older, with more life experience and clearer personalities. And then we meet them at a defining moment of their lives, as they look for ways to move on after their breakups—letting us choose which of their instincts and/or rational sides they want to follow. We can't undo Lena's submissive side and how great she found some parts of her relationship with Axel, but we can have her decide that other things are more important for her from now on, like the qualities she finds in Ian.
That's fair.
I don't fully agree here. We can see those characters in a way they can never see themselves, because we can witness them across a multitude of actions they can make. There are things that doom a relationship from the get go, no matter how much two people like each other, if those things are just left unadressed or avoided.
Please note my intentionally vague phrasing when I wrote "This has to be dealt with in some way." I don't mean have Lena become indifferent to this, that's just plain unrealistic and probably impossible, psychologically speaking. But it possibly will need to be adressed sooner or later, whether or not those options have been chosen in a particular playthrough.
If the changes are miniscule they were likely implemented by me or Lara to fix typos or grammar or just for better presentation (avoid repeated words, etc). They don't distract Eva from focusing on the latest chapter whatsoever.
Good to know.
Hard to say how good or bad the game would be without updates to prior releases. Sometimes they can take too long and sometimes they can reduce workload later down the line. It's hard to have a concrete opinion on what small details are important and what isn't. I'm sure there are a lot of small things in chapter 11 Eva Kiss could have skipped out on adding and we wouldn't notice, like the text message UI. But it's not about nitpicking every single detail and feature, the game is a sum of its parts and trying to dissect every feature that isn't crucial will inevitably lead to a bare bones games.
2) is exactly what's happening. Eva is not the only person working on the scripts, especially when it comes to technical stuff. Chapter 11 is the primary focus of Eva while the rest of the team can add new features to the old scripts or polish them. Eva only needs to manage the team and explain what needs to be done. From then the implementation is delegated to a freelance coder and Eva can then test it in the game to make sure everything works well. If it turns out that implementation gets in the way of the speedy Ch 11 release, then it could be held off until the Beta or Final. In the worst case scenario it could even release as a patch.
