If compared to GGGB and the state of Lena's corruption currently, I'd even go so far to say it's less than 25%. But I could be way off here as we don't really know how far Eva is going to take it in ORS.
Nah, Eva has said more than once that ORS will be darker in terms of realism, but more timid in terms of corruption, so this comparison makes no sense. Also, as has been said here, she strongly avoids any resemblance to GGGB lest she be accused of self-plagiarism.

Seeing that some major arcs are barely getting started, I'd say 25% at most.
This, too, is far-fetched. She could very well develop these branches in the remaining ten or so chapters she is willing to do.

I mean, almost everything on Lena's route reminds me alot of Ashley from GGGB so far. There's a whole lot of similarities. Be it the slutty friend, the instagram, the drugs, clothing, tattoos, sextoys, progressing the corruption to a point where Lena is likely gonna end up as cam model or pornstar of sorts (speaking of Wildcats and/or Jeremy's friend). Even the drawing sessions are something we've already seen in GGGB. Obviously it's not entirely the same, but it feels very similar, atleast to me. That's where my comparison is coming from. Like I said, it's not the exact same, but saying it doesn't make sense is something I'd strongly disagree with.

Surely Eva isn't trying to create a GGGB 2.0, but when I did my first playthrough I kept running into situations where I had this strong feeling of playing an "upgraded" version of GGGB. So what Eva may have said is one thing, but my experience with the game so far tells me otherwise.

Anyway, I didn't know of such a statement from Eva, so if you say that ORS is not taking it that far in terms of corruption, I believe you. We'll see in a couple years I guess.

There are similarities between the games, but they are more due to the fact that both Ashley and Lena are in the same age range which leads to part-time jobs, figuring out what to do with your life, partying, drugs, experrimenting in your sex life etc. Maybe it's (partly) inspired by Eva's own life, I don't want to speculate.

To me both games feel very different because in GGGB it felt like Ashley could end up in every situation possible, even really crazy ones, whereas ORS is much more grounded and realistic and therefore much more limited (I doubt we'll ever be able to fuck one or even both of Lena's parents!). The similarities might be intentional to show the differences.

From some of her early comments I think she's gotten too hyper focused on making it different from GGGB. Which, you don't want to just copy paste a previous game but at the same time it's ok to have similar themes and still make it good.
I think if Eva made a more sophisticated GGGB clone with the visual improvements we see in ORS, it would've been even more popular than ORS currently is.

She can even build on top of established characters and how they change through the player's choices. Take Jessica from GGGB, make her the protagonist, put her into a new setting, and you're good to go because you already have a fan base familiar with your work and the character you're developing. It might sound somewhat uninspired for a creatively ambitious creator, but it's a reliable business plan.

I have a slightly different look at comparing GGGB and ORS. It's like two different generations of the GTA series, how to compare GTA III and GTA IV. Our Red String is a huge qualitative leap forward.

That seems to be too far fetched to me. It took her approx 3 months to complete Ian's side which btw is as big as chapter 5 (atleast according to weekly updates) and considering Lena's side will be of same length as Ian, last week of October or November seems to be the best bet.
Its not complete yet.. SHe said shewould launch it first.. but even if she did, it would probablt take at elast another month to polish it all up, code everything and then launch it. And whenit gets to december, she will have her family to tke care of, so it will probably only get wrapped up next year.

The way Ian is written and how the bar tender asshole behaves, this is a valid question.
Is the NTR avoidable? Because I don't wanna waste the bandwidth if its not.
If you cannot get anyone on the 1st night out with Ian and the bartender asshole
sends you pics of the woman you like nekkid and banged by him, you gotta grab a
mod, JD is very good, and make the choices that will keep the asshole out of your stew.

Fuck i hope we get a update by December bros. I really can't believe we haven't gotten a new chapter for what feels like a whole year and might not to boot.

Well, first of all, if you don't want Jeremy to send you pictures of naked women, just don't ask him to send them to you. The problem is not the way Ian is written, the problem is that you create NTR situations with your own choices and then whine about them for some reason.

Secondly, the hell do you need a guide for that? Just your Ian has to be charismatic, flirty and nice to the lady. This is not some mastermind scheme.
