I saw a picture of Mercedes on the disc and she's very hot, but unfortunately I think she's only for Wade

I am playing this game for the very first time, and I am currently in Chapter 4. The game is truly enjoyable, and its story keeps me deeply engaged. However, I do have a few questions about certain plot points, and I would be grateful if someone could answer them without revealing any spoilers,

1. Do Lena and Ed, the owner of the café, eventually develop any kind of sexual relationship,


2. Does Lena’s storyline ever progress in a meaningful way with her ex boyfriend,


3. Is there a future storyline involving Ian and Cindy, because I really enjoy their chemistry, and at this point Cindy is my favourite character alongside Ian, Lena, Ed, and Stan,


4. Lola the cat fascinates me for some reason, I cannot shake the feeling that this black cat will play some role in the story later on,


5. Does the game introduce any pregnancy related plotlines at any point,



Thank you Eva for creating such a beautiful game, I think I first experienced GGGB back in 2019, and for that time it felt like a completely unique kind of visual novel, I truly loved your work, and your style of storytelling is remarkable,

1. No, at least not currently. If anyone has any dev insights, they can tell if this is planned at some point or not.

2. Can't answer, screw that guy, didn't follow his storyline even for completion points. But you can reconnect with him, yes.

3. Depending on your choices you can interact with Cindy more, yes.

4. Try taking some hard drugs as Ian at one point, you'll get more insight into what the cat represents.

5. Only some hints at possibilities in chapters that aren't yet released, only for Lena for now.

You men think about cocks way too much!

Not cocks specifically. It's more about having a fine place in the big picture, more or less. I think.

I thought cocks were the big picture around here~

Do you guys think by chance Mercedes could be Gillian's Asian friend? Or she is just a cameo character like Eli?

One wouldn't exclude the other. She was seen protesting and is one of Victors pals. So whether she is friends with someone else or not is entirely open.

it’s actually crazy

Dunno if it was stated how long Ian and Gillian were together, but allegedly it was a long, serious and healthy relationship that Ian put quite a lot of emotional investment in. Ian getting depressed and scarred by it is natural, he isn't heartless and just goes immediately for the next girl.

Stated a couple times that they were together for 4 years. And yeah, I know it was said in jest, but i cannot see why someone would lie about cheating if they just want to break up. After being such a long time in a relationship with someone, even if you don't love them anymore, the least they deserve is some honesty in the break-up or at least not tell such a messy lie lol.

What are the "rules" on cameo characters? Like, they explicitly can't have story impact?

Wouldn't be the first time someone made a dumb lie for the sake of pride. Romance is tough and sometimes you can't necessarily explain why a relationship you're in isn't working for you, so you find another reason. In some cases there is also a sunk cost fallacy at play, you've been together so long that it would be a waste of all those years to just break up with no solid reason.
That said, I would agree that inventing a cheating partner or just a new boyfriend even, would be a very complicated lie, you could almost lie about literally anything else at it would probably be a simpler lie to maintain.

What are the "rules" on cameo characters? Like, they explicitly can't have story impact?

There doesn't appear to be any specific ones. Some cameos are personal ones on Eva's part, if I recall correctly Wen is such a one and she doesn't want to make porn featuring a friend or something..? To be honest I don't know why you'd put any IRL friends or family in an NSFW game.
With the others, both patreon and GGGB cameos Eva seems hesitant to include them in sexual scenes too. Jack gets one right away, but Jess' took a while and John was only included because people were getting pissed that Lena automatically dismissed the idea after getting his number. I think Eva answered in a Q&A question, in the most recent one, that cameos aren't really planned for sexual content but get plopped in oportunisitically instead.

There are no rules.
Jessica got a whole plotline and she can develop a relationship with Ian.
Natasha is probably just there to get chad Ian invited for some swinging, she very likely stays with her husband.
Alice was just there for an extra face.

I agree with your last paragraph, but Spike is the older brother.



I swear I thought that it was said that the guy was a drug addict, but I checked the code and there is nothing about that. I guess that's the vibes I got reading about his troubles

Same I had to think about it too does give off addict vibes.
