I agree that Eva putting in the buildup for Gillian, and adding the dream sequence, but now she "can't say" about future sex scenes for Gillian doesn't make a lot of sense unless a) her content is being scaled back due to shifted priorities, or b) there's something coming, but not in the next couple chapters and Eva is still figuring it out. If option b, great, cool by me. If option a, that's a huge cockblock for all concerned and, in my opinion, a poor decision for the overall story. Lena has to figure out how to get over Axel or not, Ian should have to figure out how to get over Gillian or not.

Ian getting over Gillian or not it's one of the main points of the character but I don't see sex as a part of it. Yes, I know that there have been sex with Axel and there will be probably be more and even most likely an ending where Lena fails and is Axel's plaything again. But the thing is that Gillian is not interested in Ian, she's presumably happy with whoever she cheated on Ian. You can appeal to fairness or equal treatment to both MC's but Axel and Gillian are not the same and that's not how life works.

I like how both MC's have to psychologically get over their ex's betrayal without mirroning the exact same circumstances and difficulties for both of them.

The bad thing about this is that it didn't start this way.

Up till around episode 7 or 8, there were a lot more meaningful character interactions. Since then it has gone down the "appease the fetishist route" which is fine, but I feel like I was duped into getting into the game with the promise of a good melodrama with great character relationships. It's got to the point where the story is unsatisfying. I love the art and find it endlessly fappable, but that's not what brought me on board.

I imagine it's always a compromise between your personal vision and what you think the audience wants even when you go the traditional way and deliver a finished work for a fixed price. But it has to be even more complicated when you deliver a work in progress and receive constant feedback from your audience during development. Specially from the part of your audience that pays your patreon monthly and you have to keep happy enough for them to continue to do so even between releases. At the end of the day delivering their vision is not the only goal for a creator, getting as much money as they can it's also a goal. And it's an understandable goal, don't get me wrong, we all work mainly for money.

Can't say I'm suprised with Gillian situation, since news that there will be 4,5 updates. Eva introduced her too late to have route with Ian. She probably will dissapear from the story if Ian is over her, but have bigger role in cuck path. Still it's kinda weird that EK teased her so much, to have so little to show in the end.

In my opinion ch.9 was perfect place to drop her in story because:
- Ian and Lena finally specify their relationship
- Ian and Cherry finding that they have strong feelings for each other
- Ian and Cindy decides possibilities of their relations
- Ian starts to see Alison more than simply hookup
- Ian and Emma; Even in ch.11 we don't know what Eva plans are for them so it makes no difference
- Ian and Holly; They have first hookup after hotel night, and decided to take things slow

After that she could take Nat place (another pointless appearance) in ch.10 and be introduced as Ian supervisor. That would guarantee constant interaction between the two, and certainly a lot more drama.

What we get now is just wasted potential.

I wouldn't say EK teased her in a way that shows Ian being interested in her again, just getting over her as time passes, dreaming about her and thinking about her which is normal when someone is moving past someone.

Especially when Ian didn't have sexual intercourse with anyone for a year and now he's starting hookups again and is being interested in Lena and so it's normal for him to think about Gillian cuz love and relationships to him up to this point in the story were pretty much Gillian.

Are there plans to add Allison NTR events?

Pure NTR is unlikely, as Alison is smitten by Ian to the point of obession.
Closest you can get is underperforming and asking her to share herself with Jeremy for your own desire. Date her, arrange a threesome with Jeremy, get limp and choose the sad smiley (=cuck) option to demand a second threesome. She is a bit confused by it, but does it to make Ian happy.

Which isn't Netorare but Netorase and totally different if you ask all NTR connosouirs:

Who is Jessica and Nat? I don't remember these corrects, anyone have a screenshot?
Click to expand...
Both characters are from Eva's previous game Good Girl Gone Bad.

Jessica was the bad counter part to Eva in the early part of that story, but could be redeemed by Ash if Ash decided to show Jessica love and respect and encourage her to persue her love of art. Jessica is the tattoo artist that Ivy introduces Lena to, and the woman at the bar that Jeremy encourages Ian to go hit on. She has three canon outcomes based entirely off of decisions that Lena makes in the early chapters of ORS. Bad Jess, dressed in leopard print and with a scar on her face, is if Lena has sex with Robert or Mike. Good Jess has a red tube top and depending on if Lena has had romantic interest with Ian or Holly determines if Jess ended up with Ash, or another artist named Dave, at the end of GGGB.

Nat is the daughter of the bookstore owners that Ash can get a part time job at in the early part of the game. She's rather adventurous sexually, but is basically neutral as far as the good / bad mechanic is concerned. Nat is one of the editors at Ian's job, and when he gets his promotion is the girl that Ian can ask for her number. As of now we don't know what her "canon" ending is to GGGB as we've not had much in the way of interaction with her in ORS.

I reckon there will be Ian x Gillian scenes that will play in the forseeable future. Say that Gillian's BF is Mike which the game dialogues highly hinted, Gillian will be the receiving end of cheating as Lena can go for Mike. In their last sex, Lena said that soon Mike will be hers. So there's a possibility that Mike will leave Gillian for Lena. Gillian then will feel Ian's pain and began to understand him.

If Ian told Gillian that he has moved on from Gillian, She will offer Ian to grab coffees together to hangout, maybe then Gillian will tell that her BF had dumped her for another girl. Thus they can rekindle their relationship.

I know that in terms of moral, it's unlikely for Ian to get his feeling back for Gillian but I don't really care. I found Gillian as the most attractive character in the game and I hope there will be a way to get them back together.
