VN Ren'Py Race of Life [Act 1 v1.02 Steam] [Underground Studio]

That's why Kris is Best Girl. (Fuck, I really do have a type )

As for the rest, you're basically spot on, but I'm not sure about Nat being evil, per-se. It'll all be revealed when the MC gets more done with his project I guess. I could certainly see a "She stole it!" "reveal" that basically everyone paying attention saw coming.

It’s going to come out at the end, that she is not in fact a Russian spy. But a hot chick with high-functioning autism (and/or savant syndrome). Mark my words.

I'll keep her away from the battery project, even though if she is in fact a "spy" (still sus for me, way too eager about anything related to MC and his work), I'm sure she'll get her hands on it anyway sooner or later regardless of what the player does... so then he has to go all in on the racing stuff to get enough money since he won't be able to sell the project any more. If it turns out she is not involved in anything like that at least I'll have a new path to play, but not before that. I'm still saving V for a later time too, don't like her too much.

Ironically enough I’m doing the exact same thing. Though the potential cuck-queen feisty lover path has me playing the V route too since this update.

 

[vongoladex]

It is truly a crime. Jake invited Alison to the conference by tempting her with a sauna, bathtub and massage. And yet, there isn't a single scene where Alison enjoys any of that

 

[RPDL]

who is this veronica that you people speak of?

Well, someone DID try and hack into his lab's computer. If he's keeping any files on there it'll end up coming out that they got them that way or something.

As for V, she strikes me as being 1 step away from becoming a crazy cat lady. She's basically :

Like, she's viewing MC as her last chance, and she's coming across as WAY too fucking desperate to make it work. Which is a shame, because she's probably really nice, but she's just too damn annoying and she can't compete with the younger models for looks unless the whole MILF thing is what you're after.
I'd pick her over Allison, but that's mostly because Allie is a complete bitch that just has to fucking get her digs in all the time and twist the knife in every single fucking conversation. I completely understand the MC cheating on her (not that I think it was the right thing to do, mind you).

She can definitely compete on looks. She’s an absolute bombshell. Girl’s got curves for days.

If she wasn’t hoisted upon you from the get-go I doubt the people would feel so negatively about her. 6 months into a situationship is a perfectly good time to demand commitment or cutting it off.

From her point of view it’s “I want to be there for you and your daughter, but I need commitment from you to make that commitment from my side.” Especially after the “accident”. She wants to throw her full support behind someone who has been stringing her along for 6 months.

The only problem for us as the player is that we simply don’t get to experience any of that. So it feels like she’s forcing herself upon you. She invokes a “bitch wtf do you mean 6 months?! I don’t even know you!”

I’m talking purely about the first few episodes. Not the last one.

Again, sure, if you're into the MILF thing. But if not, she has practically zero appeal.

You're right, it is perfectly reasonable, but it's why I, and most others, fucking despise starting a game when the MC is already in a relationship of some sort. For example, speaking as someone who never, EVER picks the "landlady" in (totally not) incest games, I would never have picked her to begin with. And now I have to end up feeling guilty about dumping her, because despite everything, including her future ownership of at least a dozen cats, she does seem like she's actually very nice, but I just have zero interest in her.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Yeah, personally I hate it too. Part of me feels the dev did it on purpose to soften the blow with the ex-wife.

For you the MILF thing mostly means a curvy woman? It doesn’t to me, but if that’s what you mean I understand now.

(I would call the ex-wife a MILF too)

The older, curvy (the word voluptuous comes to mind) usually WAY overly large tits and ass types, yes. The "older" part is important, though. Like, Alexa and Natalya are both "curvy", but I certainly wouldn't classify either as a MILF.

You do know what the 'M' stands for ....right? lol

There's only one in this story.

It's the big shiny helmet isn't it...it attracts everyone to my yard.

I assume your breathing device is very deep!

Girth is apparently supremely important...

 

[xXwankerXx]

if you romance and bang her enough, she wont take your project.

Maybe not, but she seems like the type of woman who'd take the MC's money every damn month for the next 18y with a big smile on her face, if he don't use protection when spending too much quality time together. Still worth it tho.

Menopausalwoman?

Sounds spot on in Allison's case.

someone DID try and hack into his lab's computer. If he's keeping any files on there it'll end up coming out that they got them that way or something.

I think we can all agree that, unless anyone here pretends it was that annoying asf old fart William thinking the MC has some real juicy porn on his hdd he could fap to, our certain 'someone' can't be anyone else except Alexa or Natalya. Jasmine could be a potential suspect too, considering who her grandpa is, but it's no secret that she's a fan favorite. Don't think the devs would want to risk pissing her fans off and having to face the wrath of an entire angry mob with forks and torches coming to 'convince' them to change their mind about it.

Alexa's a pretty interesting character, IMO, and I'm glad she ain't another bs cliché spoiled rich daddy's girl and most popular bitch in college bullying other students, like that nerdy girl we all keep forgetting her name, for the lolz and attention.

There's more to her than meets the eye, and I'd be very surprised to find out this sudden lady boner she has for the MC is just a simple crush or "college teacher, college girl" porn fetish, not that I'd have a problem with the latter, ofc. On the contrary, her and Kriss were a great fuck... I'll gladly play with them again any time they down for it.

Anyway, all conspiracy theories aside, we'll have to wait and see how things unfold in the next updates on the potential spy front, but my money's still on her or Nat being spies or just trying to steal the project from the MC for their own interests or to help their family business, don't matter if they're forced to do it or not by their parents.

in that case she have to spend a lots of money for something what is mc's. it looks like mc take his money in his another pocket
hell, i want see it. would be awesome if it happening in the middle of the game and not in the ending as usually.

 

[doovel]

It's the big shiny helmet isn't it...

It does add to the mystery... or maybe the misery

Menopause, not perma-PMS and a case of resting bitch-face.

Well, William takes it up the ass from his husband (which might explain the attitude problem), so unless he thought the MC was hiding some juicy horse-porn on there I don't think that's why he'd be hacking in. There's also a good chance he would already have an admin password or something.

Alexa stole that flashdrive from the MC after the study session if memory serves (we don't see her do it, but she's the only one left on that side of the table), so there's that, but aside from being surprisingly smart has she done anything else to warrant suspicion?
