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

[ffive]

Hahaha, I win what? The only thing I won is the end of that cringy flirting and I know a more boring relationship is waiting ahead. See, if they can stay together? I thought it was all in my hands. I decide if they cheat or not and even if they do, I'm sure they'll forgive each other.

That's the point -- whether their relationship "stays more boring" is entirely in your hands and down to your choices. So it's super-weird to complain that's how it's going to be if that's what you choose it to be.

"I'm sure they'll forgive each other". They will, if you choose to. But if you consider such outcome boring, why would you choose it? To bore yourself?

Never mind the silliness of claiming you already know what choices you'll make in a story when you don't yet know what's waiting in the store.

 

[BlandChili]

That's the thing bro, I'm not going to waste hours reading a cliche story about two people who was cheated on. If I want to hear that, I can just call my friends.

Well it sounds like you did waste that time, we know Lena and Ian were both cheated on practically from the beginning of the story. I don't really get why this is a complaint you have, you could have just not played the game in the first place if you dislike narratives revolving around moving on from cheating.

Again, like I said before, it was fun but it got boring for me. And that's okay, you can enjoy it. Not everyone is going to enjoy what you enjoy.

And again, it is not necessary for you to continue to reiterate that you are fine with what other people enjoy, you are free to your opinion as we all are, your criticisms of the game are just not very deep.
It's a bit hard to understand why you are even commenting on here for, if you aren't interested in engaging in a discussion about the merits of the story with the rest of us.

Bro, if you read what I said above, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Yeah, there are options, but I don't like those options. I don't care about most of the girls for Ian, and Lena's options are all abysmal. So no, I won't make them cheat with characters I don't give a fuck about for two lines of dialogue.

Anyway, it's all me, bro. I'm not saying it's shit. You can enjoy it. You don’t have to convince me to enjoy it though.

Oh, I didn’t know you owned the place. I’m just replying to the people who replied to my comments. Sorry, Karen.

What a weird thing to say lol. What about my comment implies a claim to ownership?

That passive-aggressive tone is like you're telling me to get the fuck out of your house, lmao. Only say good things about the game I like or get out of here lol. Anyway, I'm not going to reply here again, so don't worry. Have fun, guys. I mean it.

You are very confusing to talk to.

Actually, quite the opposite some of the long-time fans here have occasionally criticized Eva, but the real issue is whether the criticism is meaningful or not.

I take it you have played the game only once? Ian and Lena have tons of variables on how they relationship can develop, if at all. If both are kind and faithfull, it may be tensionless and vanilla, since you make them choices to not create drama. But you can make one or both of them make respective choices to make their relationship quite spicy. Also, the secondary character interact with them and also potentially stirr their relationship up. Both struggle in their careers and they may make compromising choices that could hurt their relationship. Lena is constantly pestered by well off charismatic guys, even Ian has some admirer that can make a move on him even if he is with Lena. Does any of this sound boring?

And this suggests that you pair them up, which you don't have do to at all. Ian has around nine other girls he interacts with, Lena almost the entire cast.

Thanks a lot for your reply, mate. Simply put, the story bored me after a while and I didn’t really care for the characters. Let’s say that’s my main reason for quitting. The branching and all that is great. I tried a couple of variations and I love the little changes in dialogue, even for choices that don’t really matter.

Like I said, I’ll try to return and finish it when it’s completed. Maybe with a full story for every character, I’ll find more to enjoy.

That's what ffive and Blandchili were also saying. There was either a misunderstanding or you choose to be insulted. Either way it escalated from there.

Huh

Bro most people here have talked shit about the game at some point or another

You're just confusing to talk to cuz you're critical but vague so theres very little discussion to be had.

You dislike lovey-dovey romance and find it bland but it's within your control and you can spice it up so when you got told that and how you can make MCs exactly how you want you just tell us you don't like other characters/options without anything added to that.

You went from "I don't like bland romance" to "I don't like other options outside romance" to "actually I dont like the premise of the story as well".

 

[Erectosaurus]

From some dude larping as a black guy pretending to brag about his "conquests" like some irl adult game protagonist to whatever the fuck this current argument is about.

This place gets weird when it goes too long without an update. Save us Eva.

Lena's and Ian's pairing can be very dynamic depending on how you play them. Me personally I prefer them in a loving relationship with swinging allowed where Lena functions as a recruiter for girls for her and Ian to fuck. I also have a variation o this with slutty Lena and slutty Ian where they fuck everyone they can but in the end get together late in a relationship after gradually falling for each other. In this one Lena has the devil's threesome kink so hopefully Ian can return the favor to Lena by recruiting men for threesomes with him and Lena. Then I have one where Ian and Lena are just FWBs. Another one I've grown to like is the open relationship path but since it's still young, I'd like to see where it goes from here though Ian punishing Lena for cheating was hot AF. You could even have Ian be a cuck and Lena dominate him while refusing to have sex with him while fucking everything else that moves lol. Due to some of my discussions with Geigi and ffive, this inspired a playthrough where I play Lena as an absolute bitch. She steals from Ed and Molly, bullies Stan and hates her mom's and Cindy's gut. She also kicks dogs! As well as cheat on Ian with Axel and Seymour. This was my attempt at playing her as a bratty bottom. But alas I don't think the concept exists in-game especially on Axel's path. In this playthrough Ian isn't a saint either as he is an unrepentant serial cheater and dreams of becoming Seymour's right hand man. So Julius Kingsley I'm not sure what you wanted from this game but there are different ways to flavour your playthroughs. I just thought I'd share some of mine in case it'd give you some Ideas. Also chapter 8 is not really a good point to assess Ian and Lena's relationship as there are a few curve balls yet to come your way. But if you're bored that's fine too. You could play something else then when you feel reinvigorated you could come back.

What are the conditions that abort the trinity? Was protecting Holly, Ian kissed her and did not go further, etc, I got this last time with old saves, but not anymore. It seems there's a last kiss scene with Holly and Lena that is not being triggered, yet I kept her from Ivy and etc. lena_go_holly is 5 and the lena_cheating is false.

It's an american thing, they fetichize blacks in all their media from Hollywood (Zendaya) to porn (Blacked).

Not true actually. I see it this way there are more number of 6/10's among whites and latinas and others, but a 10/10 black woman is generally on par with the best of the best. And i would even agree that i find black guys more attractive but only a certain type, educated and decent.

I don't want to derail the thread with off topic. Fetish porn =/= real life.

I grew up with porn being mainstream. I gave head in HS and no one seemed to care.
And multicultural on a larger scale, what about smaller scales neighbourhoods? Cities ? Where one cultural identity is prevalent.. the minority of that region always adopts to the community

I wouldn't be so excited about new characters, look at Eva Patreon. These guys want more GGGB cameos.

Yes, because people are so obsessed with remake of GGGB game. I think if Eva remade the game, they will go crazy.

IIRC major one that puts a stop to it is Ian who didn't get over Gillian. The almost-kiss between Lena and Holly should happen when Holly is modeling for Lena; are you not getting it when they hang out?
