In spite of the fact that the previous game used Wentworth Miller and Anderson Cooper as models, no, there is no M/M content.

How the hell I didn't notice? Who's Wentworth Miller character in GGGB?

Nah, Gaymour had one small update after the beach arc and that's about it. The story is normal now.

Did you saw that romantic scene with Seymour? Hardly a Gaymour. :sneaky::oops::devilish::BootyTime:

The rivalry is donezo. Clark wins or loses and that's about it. And be real that dude is a chode :KEK:

Agreed. Arthur, Axel or maybe Jeremy would be better for backstabbing.

So a high quality book by Ian is important, no matter if you are on good or bad terms with Seymour.

That would be confirmed if 1. Seymour always recommends the book of Chad Ian who sucked up to him, regardless of the choices in the minigame, and 2. if his reassurance turns out to be always right, so in a later chapter, we don't get a sudden "upps, guess I was wrong".

Nah, that's like 30% of the comments. Though most people are just looking to fine tune something, since it's their 8-18th playthrough. Weird combos is fun.

We get those people for sure, but the user in question appears to be a newbe, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. A bunch of people may just have played this game once and wanted so secure a certain outcome for their next playthrough. A bunch of paths can be fairly tricky to do on the first try. With Cherry you only have the one night stand as your opportunity, else she is locked out forever. The Cindy path is an entire mine field to walk through, going on Minervas path requires the right choices and very high skills.

I thought the main thing was if Lena had a positive score with Seymour (but didn't need to sleep with him).

Also, I hope that if you let Viktor know about the corruption he can figure out a way to undercut Seymour, without negatively affecting your career.

Oh, absolutely. And it would be great if there was an annotated walkthrough that had key choices and conflicts on main routes, but that's a lot of work, so I understand why the flowchart format won out.

Specialising is fine, but diversifying is good too. And it seems like that publisher has the freedom to take a few hits on a prestige novel. What's the term, 'loss-leader?'
Click to expand...
That scene felt quite realistic to me... publishing is an incredibly trend-focused business and what most publishers want is a book that can slipstream an existing success: It's like Harry Potter, It's like 50 Shades, It's like ACOTAR and so on and so forth.

Beyond that, there's also the matter of managing an imprint's levels of prestige... The real business of publishing might be 'Here's more of the slop that you enjoyed last time... tuck in you idiot hogs!' but neither readers not authors want to be represented on either side of that equation. Nobody wants to be the basic bitch who reads the same shit as everyone else and no author wants to be the flash-in-the-pan who will get dumped when the trends change. So a lot of imprints manage their prestige levels either by taking on difficult books that win awards or (more frequently) keeping authors on the books on the basis of their past successes... sure they don't sell that much any more but they're prestigious and young authors will look at them and believe that this publisher might support them throughout their career.

Given what Minerva and Holly say to Ian when he's reviewing and the kinds of books that Ian gets to make decisions about, I don't think that Seymour's company is particularly well-run or forward thinking: They're bandwagon-jumping, slop-dispensers. Which, to be honest, fits with the fact that their senior management are both weird sex-freaks.

TBH, Jeremy in all my playthroughs is a buddy buddy, though I ain't giving him Ivy. I have no problems with him. Arthur against MMA Chad Ian :KEK:? You know what's going to happen. Worthy rivals for my Ian are Axel and Mike.

Even if you call Jeremy out for being a snake, and try and sabotage his chances with Ivy, the game still mostly treats him as buddy buddy. Though I don't know how bad it gets if a in love Ian has Lena cheat on him with Jeremy.

You saw him getting pounded not once but twice, it's suffice to say he's not even a blimp on Ian's radar. A typical MC power-testing canon fodder.

I'm still disappointed that Lena didn't have an option to get excited by that fight. Missed opportunity to have her find that sort of "alpha male" dominance sexy. Something she obviously starts to develop if she goes back to Axel or hooks up with Jack. Shame she couldn't develop that here for Ian if he wins, or call him out as pathetic if he loses.
