VN Ren'Py Completed Something to Write About: The Author [Ch. 7.1] [STWAdev]

[Walter Victor]

Is this like that

Sometimes, but not too often. Usually it's like something else... depending on your choices of course.

So I just reached the end of Ch 5. I know it's not a harem game, but it seems like the game wants you to bang everyone anyways. I'm only getting points for one of the LIs, but even without many points the other girls don't leave you alone. Should I just get as many points and do as many routes as possible?

If you did, don't worry about it. You'll get to choose which ending to get at the end of the game.

Oh man thanks, I think I'm gonna restart since I missed a ton of stuff. I'm always hesitant to go all out on routes because a lot of games fuck you over if you sleep around with everyone.

You're good to sleep with all of them, you don't need to make a choice until near the end.

Is this game related to Unbroken? Or can that one be played completely separately from this one?

They are kinda related, the main protags of the the 2 and the third in the trilogy are all friends.

Certain characters from this appear in Unbroken near the start.

Gotcha, trilogy? what's the missing game?

Author is the first game of the trilogy; Unbroken, the second; the third hasn't been started yet.

Edit: The first two are stand-alone. You don't have to play one to play the other, despite a couple of insignificant early references in Unbroken.

I'm gonna guess Davis is going to be the MC in the third game.

I don't think we've met the third guy yet.

Well, Davis is supposedly dead. But if not, that is a possibility that has been discussed, and not definitively refuted on the Unbroken thread. We might get more info toward the end of Unbroken.

Sometimes dead is only mostly dead. Miracle Max to the rescue!

But Davis went in to swim after less than half an hour, so....

 

[BruceSpruce]

great! finished too!

I've been thinking about this, and… The third game doesn't have to be a sequel to Unbroken. It can be a prequel instead, taking place at roughly the same time as The Author's events. So Davis being dead doesn't get in the way. There's another little detail: he was mentioned to be newly married, but his wife was never mentioned by name I believe, unlike Knight's GF, despite Davis and his wife being the hosts of the party iirc. Maybe that's because we'll eventually be the ones to decide who exactly his wife is (and therefore her name)? As for the whole ferry situation: by the end of Game 3 we might learn from Davis's POV that he faked his death. For what? Why, to cut his ties with the Irish mafia of course! Plus, he was recently redesigned and looks much better as a prospective AVN protagonist now.
I think it can all come together very well if STWAdev so desires.

I mean, it's a matter of personal preference of course, but I wouldn't be happy playing as MC, knowing that he dies in a sequel (not in that order at least)
Yeah yeah, they all will die some day, but still, to me it just looks like the time was spent in vain.

…Or Davis may turn up alive in a stinger at the end of Unbroken and start, "This is what happened to me…" With Valentine thinking he's hallucinating again until a third person in the room acknowledges Davis's presence.
