Im trying to go to photo shoots Ian+Cindy, but only got first one. The game guides a little bit to complicated to me. Any help?

You need high Cindy points and charisma for Cindy to allow you to attend. The former shouldn't be an issue if you are on her route, worst case you can get like 4 points during the card game visit.

Mods. Can we get a small walkthrough on the ORS landing page regarding the drug python error minigame? It might help some new players struggling with it and minimize the bloat messages from the thread regarding this.

Still believing after all those years people actually read the OP, adorable.

Hm. Cindy invited Ian to 3d photo shoot. But can he be invited to 2d?

There is no third photo shoot.
Regarding Cindx content you have
- Ian and Cindy at Blazer, meeting Axel.
- Ian and Cindy at the gala.
- Cindy and Axels first shoot. Ian, Wade or no one else can attend it.
- Cindys and Axels second shoot. Ian can attend it or Cindy goes alone.

the other dude made a really good complex explanation, but in simple terms to follow quickly: both Ian and Lena needs to have a good relationship with Holly, almost romantic but without cheating, the characters must adress they have feelings for her. Plus Ian and Lena shouldn't be cheating hard on the other with a prominent character. You can encourage Holly to be like Lena to a certain point, but nothing to drastic. If you follow those lineups you shouldn't have any problems

Thank you, I love this game played so many times. I have no idea how to get holly threesome Complex game so many options. I just want a option to cheat and without getting caught. xD

It's crazy because all it takes is 5 seconds of reading the text or clicking the options to realize that it's part of the game (and how to get out of it) and yet even after half a decade people still get stuck on it and their first response is to immediately close the game and come to this thread to ask for help.

To be fair, it doesn't just break the forth wall, it smashes it to tiny pieces, grinds it into fine powder and makes a milkshake out it.

You mean her mom isn't she the one with the health issues

Her dad is in cancer remission.

It's pretty obvious they're setting everyone up to be focused on the mom, and then the dad drops dead while the mom is recovering.

 

[OneShotLarry]

I feel like this has been suggested/ requested every time.

FFS, just click on every button until the story progresses...

 

[yuvce]

Or just... don't take the drug? Really not that hard.

 

[OneShotLarry]

I'm assuming the game will end with a title drop of some sort:

Ian is at a book signing and Lena shows up and Ian reveals that the book is a memoir of Ian's time with Lena/Holly/Alison/Ivy or whoever he chooses and the title is "Our Red String."

Or Lena takes the stage to perform and says she has a new song to play for the audience, called "Our Red String."

Nah. The game will end with Lena and Holly hitched, Jeremy-Stan-Wade-Perry will be dead, Axel will be in prison, Louise will also be dead thanks to an OD, Allison will be a single mom raising Jeremy's daughter, Emma-Ian-Ivy will be a thing, while Ian and Holly collab for a book called 'Our Red Strings'.

I don’t get why so many people in this thread are complaining about that part of the game. It’s been explained plenty of times how to get Ian out of the drug trip. There are walkthroughs, mods, and the game itself gives clear hints on what to do during that sequence.

And really, you can just skip the whole thing by not doing drugs with Ian in the first place. I don’t get what the issue is. Maybe some folks just aren’t paying attention or can’t be bothered to read what’s right in front of them.

And yeah, like someone mentioned earlier, even if you add the exact steps for this part of the game and put them right in the OP, there’s no guarantee people will actually see it or pay attention to what’s written there.

Her dad is in cancer remission.

It's pretty obvious they're setting everyone up to be focused on the mom, and then the dad drops dead while the mom is recovering.

Thanks, I think I had totally forgotten what happened with Lena’s stepdad. That’s her stepdad, right ? IIRC, Lena admits she had a crush on him when she was younger, during that drinking game on vacation with Ian’s friends. I also kinda suspect that his health condition will play a role later on. Seems like the perfect ingredient for some drama, especially with everything going on around Lena.

Brother you don't have to tell me. It was pretty easy to intuit it was a fourth wall break from the way Emma described that it was a "strong hallucigenic" and the "Error" message is pretty obvious even if you couldn't figure it out from Emma's context clues. But I also actually play the game and don't speed through it to get to scenes, which a not insignificant number of users do. Even if there are users that aren't speeding through it, there is still a strong number of users whose primary language is not English, so they might not be able to pick up on the joke.

I don't think putting a guide on the OP will help all that much, because as has been discussed literally every time a guide has been suggested, most people do not read the OP. They might read the game description to get a feel for the game and then go to the download section while skipping everything else. This has been proven, in this very game, with the book guide being on the OP and we still get a large number of new players that come in and ask about what is the "best" way for Ian to write his book.

varpep wrote an amazing guide on how to have the best fighting results and experience gain that absolutely deserves to be on the OP, but that hasn't been posted there yet. So I think it's even less likely that the drug mini-game will make it, because, as you just said, just click on every button, isn't a particularly compeling guide. At best we might be able to convince the powers that be to put a warning message or something about it, but I doubt it will fix much at all in regards to players panic when the "Error" message pops up.

So, yesterday evening I was having a private viewing session, just a handful of short art films I enjoy from time to time, and I suddenly had a very powerful sense of deja vu. I opened the ORS gallery, found out my hunch was correct, and took this layered screenshot to share with you lovely people.
