Helayna's arc is currently being reworked. According to what the Devs have said in the past they plan to eventually allow you to reconcile with Alexia after allowing Helayna to move into your room. What exactly that reconciliation looks like is yet to be seen, but I would wager on it involving a threesome at least.
Doubt, if anything is going to be an "or you kick her out or I'm getting "friendly" with Andras instead".
with andras this really doesn't make any sense and is subject to a myriad of debates here on this forum (which i also often said is inconsistent behaviour from andras).
this reminds me, are they still doing the three act structure? I've heard nothing on act 2 for years
Not gonna lie, I was wondering when that would happen. It only makes sense if she is corrupt enough that something like that would happen.
Yep, according to all official information and statements they are still doing that. To speak to the Andras/Jezera NTR reveal to Rowan, they are specifically keeping that under wraps til at least some ways into Act 2 for the reasons already mentioned. Jezera can offhand mention to Rowan that Andras is fucking Alexia, but Rowan simply thinks that she is trying to rile him up. Which, to be fair, she is (and its dropping the ball on her part because she is supposed to be using Alexia to keep him loyal after all, but then Jezera isn't as smart or in control as she pretends to be). There's speculation that the amount of favor/influence Alexia has with Rowan/Andras/Jezera will eventually have Alexia join or stay loyal to either side in the eventual civil war that is going to happen within the Twins faction.
That isn't how the scene works anymore. I think it was rewritten from a very early build of the game. Presuming the scene that it replaces is the one where Alexia remains angry with Andras during her captivity, then decides she is seriously considering his offer, then finally kisses Andras rather than slaps him.
Ah! I was starting to suspect that list of scenes I was looking at was old. Thank you Devronman.
There is only one Alexia x Andras NTR route. I think some misunderstanding may arise from the fact that the game has many events which are NTR events with Andras. They happen either randomly or on certain points but in any given playthrough you may or may not get them all. Giving in to Andras during these events raises Alexia's "Andras influence" points. If Alexia's corruption AND these influence points are high enough (they need to be higher than "Jezera influence" points!) in addition to her relationship points with Rowan being low, you enter the Andras NTR path which is basically a chain of related events. Regardless of your choices, Rowan will not discover Alexia cheating on him so he continues his usual work in Bloodmeen.
It's so frustrating that the relationship points need to be low in addition to the influence points being high. What if I wanna play a Rowan that is not a douche to his wife but Alexia still gets the wandering eye.
Thet dont like each other, its an alliance of convenience.
It makes sense. They've been happily married for years and Andras is her manipulative kidnapper. The only reason she was even considering dealing with Andras was from a feeling of hopelessness when Rowan was missing. Once Rowan returned, she would only deal with Andras if Rowan started neglecting her or treating her poorly to the degree that she felt she had been abandoned by him. A person going from being someone's kidnapping victim who was openly lied to for a chance at fucking them, and who also openly abuses and rapes people, to being that persons willing sex slave is a long journey and that first proper step would have to be a doozy.
It does make sense, but since it's fiction I think a few more paths could be explored.
You're welcome, Citizen *flies off to another porn emergency*
Kind of. I think it was either if she was a barmaid or a regular maid she hears rumors about Rowan's infidelity in general, and when she spots or hears about gay sex going on at the bar for instance she starts connecting some dots about how Rowan acts around men now (there's an actual secret counter that counts gay hookups for Rowan which triggers one of those events of introspection for her). All this really does for the most part is ostensibly lower her relationship score with him since he is living a life apart from her. It might also affect future dialogue, but don't quote me on that. I hope that helps, Citizen.
