VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch.14.1.4 Beta] [Eva Kiss]

[dontcarewhateverno]

what a waste and joke )))) lmao, before, one year ago or half year ago i was able to have more than 300k moneys, to change names and others and now i am not, dumb game

The game's built in cheat mode never had those features. Sounds like you used some sort of other fan-made mod for free back then and are now blaming it on the "waste and joke dumb game" when that entirely-free-to-you mod made by someone in their spare time is not available for you to apply to the latest update. "WTF, EvaKiss?!? "

Dammit, you beat me to it. I even have a long spiel about what the Red String of Fate is and how it applies to this game.

Give me your delicious spiel

The title is a reference to the Red String of Fate, an ancient Chinese belief that people who are destined to find love and marry each other are bound by an invisible red cord. The cord can become tangled and bind with other cords, but will never break, so these cords can create a great web of fate at times. Hence why all these characters lives are interconnected and they seemingly keep running into each other even when they don't plan too.

We're seeing a snapshot of Lena and Ian's lives. Perhaps they have a red cord that binds them, or perhaps their red cords just got tangled with each other the night they met in that ally. How we play them will likely determine that, but for now they are bound by fate to at least be near each other.

As the story has progressed, many of these cords have tangled further with each other; notably Ivy, Perry, and Holly are much more interconnected with both Lena and Ian now than they were at the start of the game. Cindy was loosely connected to Ian at the start of the game, but depending on how we play could be much tighter, and with her hiring to Wild Cats she may start finding herself more closely connected to Lena moving forward as well.

There's just one problem with that clever plot.

“Wheew, I dodged a bullet there. Well, sorry about your luck, I can go back to being selfish.”

I always thought that it refers to the strings of a red thong

Nah that ain't it. Ian and Lena talked about fate during their date and how they seem to always bump into each other.

Is there a bug in this path? I tried to do a variation for Ian,Lena,Holly throuple. Ian is dating Lena and always chooses the heart choices with her. Ian sleeps with Holly and automatically rejects her which I assumed is due to choosing the heart choices with Lena. Lena chooses to stay in Ivy's place and has a threesome with Holly. Lena always chooses heart options for Holly except for that scene (the heart option would have been to go to Lena's place and kiss Holly but Lena stops herself) and now Lena can't choose heart choices for Holly anymore in future choices. Lena dances with Ian at the party and leads him to the restroom where she gives him a blowjob. However, there were no internal monologues or reflections about what happened, how she had given Ian a bj and how she's sleeping with Holly too. There is also nothing on Ian's part despite how in previous monologues he stated that he's still pursuing Lena and is hopeful even though she ended their relationship.

The lack of internal monologue sure makes it sound like a bug. You´ll probably have to wait for one of our resident code divers, like ffive to confirm, though.

Meanwhile the only thing I could think of that would make somewhat of a logical sense for that situation to happen is if Lena is on Drugs, as sort of an override. Did you make her? If yes, do you have a save just before that? Try it without and see if it changes anything. But even if, the missing dialogue still doesn´t make sense.

As for the heart choices on Lena´s side. She will always stop herself from kissing Holly in that scene, if Ian is involved with Holly, regardless if they had sex or just kissed. You´ll stlll have to make that choice to access further heart choices and eventually kiss Holly later on.

Either way, I´m pretty sure Ian sleeping with Holly is the dealbreaker for the throuple in it´s current state, though. Don´t know if there might still be a re-entry planned for later but as is, you can only get there slowly, Ian kisses Holly but chooses not to sleep with her -> Lena forgives Ian a while later -> Lena kisses Holly at the end of Ch11.

You can't. Best is a good spar.

Yeah Lena on drugs make her do that but only in this run. Other "regular" runs won't allow Lena to do that even when on drugs. I thinking even more that it's a bug because choosing to stay in Lena's place would make Lena attempt to kiss Holly but stop herself. But she had no problem having a threesome with Holly. If I had to guess the bug would be having the decision to have the threesome.

It's the same deal. Even if I choose to go to Lena's place and Lena stopping herself before kissing Holly, they can still have sex in future scenes. There was no reflection of the Ian situation.

I hope I won't be a nuisance to make here a couple of comments on this game, so far very positive I think
First of all I like the book content of it very much and I like that Lena confides sometimes to Lola the cat.
Somehow it makes the play even that much lovelier!

Thank you Eva Kiss, and your team should you have one!

Someone help me, it was mentioned way earlier but what does the title “Our Red String” refer to or what’s it’s meaning?

Some people have already replied with some possibilities.

In Scandinavia especially, but also when you study literature in other European countries generally, you'll come across a concept simply called "the red thread" (or "string," I don't know if either of those terms are a more likely translation in Spanish). This refers to metaphorical bonds that connect people together into a greater whole, but doesn't imply anything fateful like the asian concept or the warding properties of the Kabbalah examples, given by others.

Of course it is equally possible that the title refers to all these concepts in some form.

I think you can make an argument for either of these ideas by analysing the narrative. Ian and Lena are perhaps always fated to be involved with each other, or their involvement represents the whole of the game as all the social contacts presented in the game revolves around them. Perhaps Lena and Ian have to work together (in representation of the Kabbalah) to ward off the worst of Seymour's machinations and the title is warning us that having Lena and Ian split on the issue will lead to their ruin!
