Meanwhile Lena is taking backshots with whatever flavor of the month request is demanded ad nauseum.

Yeah she is!

Indeed she is, and I really, really do not understand how you can find any of it interesting.

I mean, it is not a matter of diverging points of view, it is not even a matter of personal taste or preference, it is a matter of content quality.

The sluth path was indeed my main playthrough until the end of chapter nine. I liked it.

I found the first one night stand with Mike very hot. I found Lena waking Jeremy up super hot. I found Lena cheating on Ian with Axel for the first time super hot. Damn, I even found cheap sex with Robert rather hot.

But then, from the beginning of chapter 10, I caught myself off guard doing something that completely suprised me:

For the first time since the beginning of the development of this game, I found myself playing on skipping mode.

I just wasn't interested anymore.

Why on earth ?

To find why, I replayed my sluth path from the start, and realised something:

If you play on the slut path, by chapter 10 this game can be summarized as: "oh, this hot girl fucks her supervisor, then she fucks the DJ, then she fucks her BBC BFF boyfriend, then she fucks her ex, then she sucks some stranger in a club bathroom, then she sucks the bouncer's BBC on a street corner, then she fucks an influencer in the same bathroom, then she fucks"..........OK I'm even bored just typing it.

The slut path reminds me of a scene in a saturday night live show in my birth country: the comedians play talk show hosts of an intellectual, nerdy arthouse cinema show, where this time the guest is a porn movie director presenting his brand new movie.

The talk show host asks him: "so I thought your movie was so subversive, denouncing the patriarchal society and the victimization of suburbean middle-class wives. Can you summarize the plot for our viewers?"

And the porn movie director replies "Sure: well, first her husband leaves for work, then she fucks the milkman, then she fucks the newpaper boy, then she fucks the plumber, then she fucks the pizza delivery boy, then she takes her kids to hockey and fucks the coach, then she gets home and denies her husband".

Our Red String's slut path is as boring and mediocre as that.

I have a pretty wide set of interests when it comes to the potential of this game and enjoying one does not hinder my ability to enjoy another.

Addicted to coach type of men in chatbots cause they are non existent in who knows how many college FMC games there are. Talking about non existent creativity in plot, characters and sex. Oh, oh and milkman... Guy sure knows how to milk my milf.

but from what I've read rewrites have happened before and might still happen again

A sensible rewrite in which Lena goes to an unemployment office and gets a fake email 9 to 5 job instead of whoring herself online or wiggling her ass in front of geriatrics.

I wouldn't take this as the end of the world just yet

"Mein Fuhrer, the couple of characters from the retarded Spanish soap opera dating sim didn't go to the perfect aquarium date to eat ice cream and hold hands in the latest chapter. He didn't buy her a plushy penguin. Her room will remain sad and barren and penguin free, forever. They did not even ride bicycles together."

It's the reason GGGB was better... the character and the game changed along with the character. In ORS, it's just ongoing scenes with no character development or even appropriate cause and effect as a result of her actions. No matter her actions the story just keeps going with minor changes to dialogue that really don't make up for the poor game play.

its the reason everyone is so obsessed with Cindy. She hasn't gone down the path Lena has yet and her character can still change.

Those people are obsessed with Cindy because they want her to be ruined like Holly, no thanks. Cindy is good character the way she is.

I recommend everyone try this one out, even the dev uses AI it is still entertaining.

varpep · 2025-12-01T15:42:17+0000

I always found it weird that when Lena advises Ivy not to sleep with Jeremy she gets wits xp. The same as when she rejects Seymour in Rome. Do you guys think there is more to this or is it just a way to get wits xp or both?

I think I mentioned the game before. Specifically that someone said it's better than ORS.

Well, it is not better than ORS, but still decent and clearly inspired by ORS.

Wits is sort of the "anti-whore" stat, at least in quite a few instances. For example I'm pretty sure it's also the stat Lena needs to question Billy about Nymph, an option not available if she's drugged out of her mind.

IIRC the one that was supposedly better was some 3dcg thing with only female MC. This one seems to be more like ORS in setup.

In any case, this tangent is probably going to end up deleted any minute now.

no, she is right, someone did say WTPH was better than ORS.

exactly... she has something to lose... change somehow... have peril. Lena's character seemingly has lost this potentiality of peril, which makes her game play suck.

True. It does pop up though in some unique circumstances like when Lena correctly alludes to Cindy having uterior motives for her break with Wade. And Ian successfully distracting Perry while Cindy sneaks out.

I might be the only one who is enjoying the romance path here....lol.

She also gets a wits point if she avoids Axel.
Generally, not sleeping and interacting with douches is smart.

Currently out of funny reaction pictures, so everyone please imagine one and proceed.

I love how this thread never runs out of ideas for discussion.
