VN Ren'Py Race of Life [Act 1 Steam] [Underground Studio]

[Dessolos]

Honestly, the more I post in here, the more I realize the entire cast is just making dumb decisions left and right.

V's combo bj/sex in the parking lot of the college is a smart career move for both of them, especially when Alexa catches them and Jasmine almost does as well. Given how much that one guy hates the MC (I think he's the dept head? not sure), you'd think MC would keep his head down and definitely not chase skirts or get chased at college.

Which is what makes Allie or Maggie the best girls if you want to dial back on the dumb decisions haha

 

[jadepaladin]

I think he meant more...what any 'woman' would do....and I tend to agree.

That's fair, if they weren't on campus, Jasmine deserved a slap.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

I have to admit she's not my number one girl, I'm on the redhead team..But Maggie has the most beautiful renders in this update.

Honestly as good as Jas's lewd scene was I like Maggie's alot more even if it was only a BJ to me it was alot hotter than Jasmine's scene mostly because of her eyes.

They are very different. Jasmine is fire, passion, lust and chaos and I prefer that more, but I like Maggie too, who is the complete opposite of her.
Introverted, sensitive, calm, but with kinks in her head. Both girls are great and deserve a separate run. I think of Maggie as a superior version of Jill Royce - better written, prettier, more charismatic and sexually more kinky, although she needs time to open up and trust a guy for this.

For me after this update I officially like Maggie more than Jasmine

Ya, I'd really like to check out the Kris route further as I find her very attractive,

so feel like I will just stick on a Maggie solo route instead of exploring a bit. Wish the other girls felt more navigable, but in this case, I'm playing it safe considering what's at stake.

Another good reason to hit the gym

For me after this update I officially like Maggie more than Jasmine

For me list looking this:
1. Jasmine. Wild redhead is unbeatable for me.
2. Kris. Crazy goth chick - I'm in.
3. Maggie. Innocent and nice, but kinky inside.
4. KGB asset, aka Natalya. She can't be trusted, but interesting and mysterious.
5. Allison. Don't have a strong feelings for her, and their marriage collapsed for a reason, so not interesting in ex-reunion route here, but I want to stay friends with her a being on a good side. Plus, Lily case should help them to find peace
6. Alexa. Just a hot vixen for quick fuck, don't see any interesting personality. More, she was annoying cockblock with Jasmin.
7. Just fuck off, V! Stay in Canada and don't go back!

For me it be
Allie - I have a thing for getting back together with EX's and I just love her characrer
Maggie -
Jas
Natalya
maybe Kris Idk the text message on how she reacts if you turn down the threesome made me dislike her some

Alexa and V can go in the trash can for all I care

 

[LaShou23]

In the 'battle of blondes' Maggie > Natalya, imo. Maggie is wifey material and Natalya only a good fuck (+ too easy/needy, she's willing to fuck MC after knowing him for like 5 minutes.That's sus af)

 

[Ilhares]

Well, the list seemed easy enough.


1. Jasmine. I like her energy, she's a fun aggressive, but the lack of seriousness may be an issue.
2. Kris. Uh, hell yeah, man. For me, especially with Alexa as a tag-team partner.
3. Maggie. Beautiful eyes, but I really just don't like her.
4. Natalya. Absolutely untrustworthy, and doesn't hit any of the right buttons for me.
5. Allison. Weirdly, while I also hate most of the "reunite with ex" garbage, I find I like her (physically). Worth a go.
6. Alexa. A bit crazy? Sure. Needy? Oh yeah. But I like Asian girls, and she's got the cute thing going. Worth risking the career? Remains to be seen.

7. Just fuck off, V! Stay in Canada and don't go back!

I had to keep that, because spot-on, man. Fuck that. But..

8. Kalani. I really like what we've seen of her so far, too. She's good looking, brilliant-minded, and independently successful. That makes for good long-term stability.

Lmao why is kalani 8. but you have only good things to say about her?

I feel like mine is very unusual:

1. Allison - the most beautiful, feels really realistic and is just awesome. The lily theme makes it even more fitting.
2. Jasmine - the hottest one, lots of fun and she will calm down (a little bit) at some point when she gets older
3. Alexa - I dont really get why she gets so much hate, shes adorable, a tease and smart & sexy. I dont even think shes very slutty (at least not with guys), and i think its great that she has a kinky and a adorable side. Dont consider her a big risk, she has to take care of her reputaion herself too, she cant be caught fucking a prof.
4. Patricia -
5. Maggie - shes fun and cute but a biiiiiit too bland for me, her .. i dunno .. safety kink? isnt really exciting either
6. Kris - seems fun and is up for maledom, but more as a fuckbuddy, dont dig her this much
7. Kalani - i think she is great but too old for the mc, would rate her higher with a older mc
8. Natalya - only as a fuckbuddy and i would always consider her super strange. i think being a german myself makes her even stranger. Still not sure if thats on the devs or her cover, she seems more belgian and like from brüssel.
9. Veronica - Well yeah, i agree, have a good life in canada

 

[adanu]

Of course the marriage falling apart is probably on both of them, thats how its usually is.

Yet it seemed like allie went for the confrontation to adress their problems while Jake ducked away, closed his eyes and just prayed for divine intervention. And i dont know, maybe im oldschool but hes the man, take care of your fucking relationship or end it when your wife seems unable to divorce you/break up. So i would at least give it a 60/40 towards allie but it doesnt really matter.

Its okay to not work anymore after a time in a relationship but even than its just not okay to cheat before ending it.

Yeah the hatefuck is awesome, i just dont like the aftermath at all. I will never understand people claiming allie is prude when shes obviously a wildcat with her man lol. The wedding night extra scene was hot too



By the way as im always trashtalking Veronica, im playing a cheating on Veronica route atm for completion and i have to admit that her cuckquean path is kinda funny and hot!

How do you get this?

 

[motseer]

Somehow, clear headed minds have become hopelessly confused in this thread. Obviously, the correct "girl ranking" here is as follows:

1. Veronica
2. Veronica
3. Veronica
4. Veronica
5. Veronica
6. Veronica
And, last but not least, Veronica.

 

[Ilhares]

Lmao why is kalani 8. but you have only good things to say about her?

Oh, I wasn't giving them any specific ranking based on preference, just enumerating options.

 

[jadepaladin]

If we're doing lists...

Allison - honestly she might be my fave in all VNs but time will tell.
Jasmine - redhead/trouble, I'm all for it.
Maggie - She'd carry the VN if Allison didn't exist.
Kris - Goth princess/trouble
Natalya - Red herring spy
Kalani - I hope she's not a main route but I'm down for a lewd scene or two.
Alexa - I don't like her outward persona but learned a lot in the Kris/Alexa threesome about why she is the way she is.
Vanessa - The sex scene was nice but I don't see much future. She'll probably roll in for another scene down the road.
Literally every other woman in the story (the physio chick, Patricia)

I'm forgetting someone... never mind, she's in Canada and can stay there.

Seeing some Jammin dissing going on...



I mean I kind of get it, but currently blaming most of the bs she pulls as being a student and unfortunately acquainted with Alexa who Is responsible for the annoying student texts. To be fair though I blame Alexa for all evil in the world really. Personally really like Jasmine because she at least seems to actually be interested in the work they are doing and Is seemingly serious about having her own racing team/business.

Maggie though would be able to beat Jasmine for me If she wasn't blonde, just not into blonde's, though maybe I'm just too into into redheads.... nah... no such thing.

oh yeah if I went soley base on Looks Jasmine no question asked. even tho Jasmine went down in ranks for me this update I still like her alot I love her personality. Honestly for me just one solid date / character deveolopment arc and I can see her jumping back ahead of Maggie for me. As her personality carries her just as much as her looks for me she is fun to be around and she acts like a bro at times which I fucken love.

 

[ename144]

Yeah this, i cant see how people can see this behavior and excuse it with "well she had to wait a long time already, she wants clarification NOW", like what the fuck?

His little daughter is in a life-threatening coma since a few days and he has to come up with money for her treatment and thats the fucking moment where she needs clarification so badly?!

And even worse, she considers herself important for the MC's project and than just leaves at a time where its the most important for him to succeed because he needs the money from his project for his daughter.

How is that not utterly shitty? "You either commit to me now or i will stop supporting your project and you can look for yourself how youre gonna be able to get the funds for your daughter, fuck you, what do i care about the little bitch". Just reverse the genders and you will see how fucking creepy and disgusting that is.

Yeah yeah, very caring and supportive.

But she obviously did jackshit anyway as her being absent doesnt damage the project in any way at all lol

And why the fuck are people keep saying that she is the mc's S.O. or girlfriend in the beginning when his thoughts are literally this:

Spoiler: MC's thoughts about their "relationship"

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

While I broadly agree that Veronica's actions don't paint her in a great light following Lily's injury, I do think it's important to remember that the MC is, to be polite, a cad. I do not believe for a moment that he ever told Veronica point blank that he wasn't ready for a relationship; I think he prevaricated and offered half-truths that implied he wanted no strings while making sure V would hear whatever kept the good times rolling. Even once he's under my control, the MC is a pretty shameless womanizer, heaven knows just how bad he was when he was in full rebound mode and eager to justify what he'd done to Allison. Basically, I don't think the MC's framing of the situation is reliable.

So I'm willing to cut Veronica a fair bit of slack when it comes to her clinginess. It's her attempt to seduce the MC in the school parking lot that did her in for me. Lady, that would be a terrible idea even if the guy was worth it!

I mean when questioned, Allie states that their marriage wasn't working and she wasn't happy. It sounds like the marriage was dead and the infidelity was just the final nail.

I don't think it was quite dead, but both Allison and the MC had clearly let problems fester to the point a crisis was inevitable. The reason I put more of the blame on the MC is that his actions are what guaranteed the situation would be irreparable. Poor communication kills, but it might have been corrected if either of them had a revelation and resolved to fix things; gaslighting your spouse about having an affair is pretty much a nuclear option.

I don't like Veronica very much at all and not doing a path for her, but I love how everyone puts this on her. If Jas didn't start it and intentionally try to goad her like a 10 year old, V doesn't carry on. Of course, V should have been more mature and ignored it (and it was unprofessional), but she got threatened by the sexy student who was throwing herself at her man in front of her while she can't get him to commit. Perfectly understandable response and what most would do in the same situation.

Meanwhile, the sexy redhead gets a complete pass for her immature behavior. I wonder why?

If we had a choice, Jasmine would have been off my project right there and then.

Yeah, Jasmine was a a real dick in that exchange and it definitely soured me on her character. But no false equivalencies, please. Jasmine only got catty once it clear Veronica considered hiring Jasmine beyond the pale. First, that's just moronic. Hiring students is the whole point of university research. Second, Veronica is not only far older and theoretically wiser, she's a professor. She's the one who's expected to act professionally here, not the student who's paying to learn. What did she think would happen when she insulted Jasmine to her face?

Sure, Veronica had every reason to question the MC's motives, but that's something to bring up with him in private. Forcing a confrontation over nothing (much less getting into a pissing match to hide her own insecurities) is a losing game - as Jasmine was all too happy to demonstrate.

So yeah, both characters behaved like clowns, but Veronica not only shot first, she did it in the dumbest way possible.
