VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [S1 Ch.4 Fix 1 Steam] [Oceanlab]

[LHDLLB]

The analysis has problems with the timing, and I mean that we don't know how the events happened, we can only affirm that Leia was already evil before and became a cold bitch after William left... The carving on the tree is not dated, so it could have been after William realized his own feelings for Leia.


Edit: I stand corrected, with the new family dynamics in the story, depending on when they were adopted, Leia's personality will have been formed only with William's presence, so while it doesn't take away from the fact that she was already a bitch, it does give her a more solid context for who she was.

Yeah, I thought the same writing it, but even if something is off, can't be by much, everything has to have happen is a very condensing time frame 2 to 3 year at most.

I would not say that she was evil as a child, rather after everthing that went down with her, after she overcomed her depression she become ruthless and more cruel than before.

The carving, that william did not look like a 16 - 18 year old boy, he seems much younger than that. But you are right, as it is not dated, it could have happen at any time, but I would be very surprised if so.

Guys the obvious answer is that Ocean has absolutely no plan at all and is just making it up as he goes, creating lots of inconsistencies.

Effectively period is quite confusing, we have a flashback where a very young Leia and William talk about celebrating a month together or something similar. Then we have a William who says to only realized he wanted Leia after losing his virginity to Monica.

- William's been gone for more than 5 years - as he's been with Miru for five years, three months and eleven days, and she is post him leaving. Whe don't know in this version if they start together in prison, or after. There will be more time than that. Leia hadn't hit puberty when William left, no breasts, it's mentioned William says they're new.
- Mon was deflowered at Kat's birthday - as Kat's still in college, and William is 24ish, that makes sense to Mon being older than kat, same age as William, Dana, Leia etc. After orgasm, William had post nut clarity and left Mon because he relaised he wanted Leia and saw no future with Mon.
- the new family dynamic only alters when Katie knew Leia and William, not when William and Leia knew each other - as they are related, there is almost no chance they would have been separated and reunited. There's the flashback where they're playing with toy dinosaurs and we first get the bibi word, which shows us the youngest that they interacted with Katie that we currently know. Then we see Dylan teaching them to fight. I can't imagine that the toy dinosaurs were when they were much older than 6. William, on to video games by the time of the flashback with Leia, so they've been in the Zane household from a young age (unless Ocean re-renders).
- The heart can be carved at any time. William has shown that he can be genuine, then 180 and be an asshole. It could be after he creampies Mon, right before he flees, having realised he needs to take Leia seriously. We don't know if William and Leia were committed from the flashback until he left, but in the monthiversary flashback, William's an asshole, so it's likely the heart was at a later point.
- William was still being chased by girls throughout highschool if I remember correctly. In the old version, at least, she directly tells Dana that William isn't interested in Dana, in this version she tells Dana that William prayed to satan to keep Dana away from jealousy vibes. So we do get a picture William was playing the field.

- I think that Miru and William meet each other while in prison. When we are at the farm and William and the girls are talking about who is a bigguer slut, Miru makes a comment and William says something of the like of: " we fucked right after I..." and trails off, Miru covers for him saying " right after our first date". My believe is that he was gonna say "right after I got out of prison", if I am right they either meet each other right after he leaves town or while he is in prison.

- The heart could be carved at any time, but my take from the scene and the context of William remembering it was that the heart was the gift that he gave Leia for their monthversary, she asked something from the heart so she gave her a heart with their names.

Those are my thoughts too, but currently we have no direct indication. Prior to the rework they met in prison, but now, we don't know, because there's also Daphne's story to consider. We do know that Willi and Miru both have been involved in shady business, so it's likely still the case. Regards the heart, that's the most likely, followed by Willi not being faithful. It feels like he left not long after doing Mon, and we have stories of he and Dana dry humping, and Leia trying to make things awkward. The problem I have with that is Willi remembers and thinks Leia will see it as special, but if he dry humped Dana and creampied Mon after that, he really was the utter ass. He's only interested in the new Monster Basher Brutal 3000, I mean who wouldn't be? So it doesn't make sense that flashback is right before he leaves based on his lack of maturity, and Leia's lack of boobs (as women mature earlier than men) and there being only 9 seconds difference in age.

We know what Daphne jobs is ? I get the felling she is a lawyer, but I don't think the game says so. If it is the case, Daphne may be the one who got him out of jail, we know that there is some history with her and William, I can see it working. Yeah, I feel the flashback is a while earlier, and William is a utter ass. It don't make sense be right before he leaves, it has to be while they are kid enough to Leia be flat and William be so childish, his lacking of maturity is what redeems him in my eyes a bit, I don't think that he had a ideia of what he was assigning. As I said, the timeline is super compressed so is hard to pinpoint everything, between Leia and William starting dating and him leaving can not be more than 3 years top. So:

- 1ª years: William and Leia are "dating" and everything is fine

- 2ª year: William starts catch the eyes of other girls and think he is the MC of some AVN and will have a harem of 15 women by the ripe age of 18. Leia jealousy starts to creepy in and she becomes more unhinged.

- 3ª year: everything goes to shit. Leia is completely unhinged, Katie finds out what the Twins are up to, and William discovers that his pull out game still needs improving. Realizes that he does not lives in a ICSTOR game but now Katie is ready to fuck them.

I can see 2ª/3ª being compressed. About the maturity bit, I find that is worth point out, that there is a big difference between a 15 years old and a 17/18 year old, so maybe at that point William still is much immature but 6 month to a year later he has a different mentality.

My point about Leia - it is completely unreasonable to assume she is flat chested at 17 - William left before she got boobs. We see her anorexic in a flashback, not sunken, but still undeveloped, not much older than the monthiversary flashback. We have to assume William left as a teenager.

Regards, Daphne, the game doesn't need more lawyers - Dana is one, Elena is likely to still be one (as her original role was the prosecuting lawyer that Willi needs Dana to defend him from). Maybe a social worker, and she helped him find his balance? Maybe she has no professional role in what happened, but was the girl whose family got him jailed in a slight change from the original? We have nothing to go on other than we see her in an office and she smokes when stressed.

It'll be interesting to find out some of these juicy details in the next release. We won't get them all, but something more at least.

I was assuming that the flashback happen around 14 maybe 15 and William leaves around 17/18. I am no biologist, but a flat chested 15 years old is not unreasonable in my point of view, and they don't grow over night, maybe William leaves right around the time they began to show up but are not as big as they are now. When you say teenager you mean what age ? I can't see William leaving before 16 at minimum, if so he had a real wild adolescence, still there is the question of the prison. He seemed to have been jailed right after he runs way, would he have gone to prison if he was a minor ?

Yeah, I agree is one too many lawyers but at the same time is the only thing I can come up with. I like the idea of social worker, but she seems to young to that, I have considered that her family helped him. Young man lost in the world, gets helped by two good Christians and fascinates their protected daughter, but don't sits right with me,

I really hope that at least the Leia relationship gets a bit more clear. Even if it raises 10 more questions, some answers would be welcomed.

I played this a while back and resumed from a save i had. can someone give me a summery of the what is the relation between each character to the MC. With the patch ON

William clearly notices that Leia has boobs that she didn't before, and the flashback to her after he left is not that of a 17 year old, mentions she refused to go to school (not college, but school). So, William did leave before the end of school. Mon is out of academy, working, Dana is working, with a reputation and success, Leia has a business empire, at the bare minimum they're what? 25 now? Katie is still at college, so there can't be much more than 5 years between them, but Dana needs enough time to finish law and practice, which is probably a longer time frame than Mon needs to be working, and Leia needs time to develop a business AND an informations network/gang.

So the time frames are pretty messed up. But William definitely left before school finished (currently). Flat chested 15 is not an issue, flat chested 18 when they get that ridiculously large is not very believable. Maybe this area will get redone a bit, because the timeframe is currently so implausible.

There's no point. Ocean has recently decided as of ch 4 that the relationships will be different, to streamline the story. Right now, all we know is Miru is William's gf and Leia is William's sister. We don't know much more than that, other than most likely all the other relationships are as is. Right now it'll make more sense to wait for ch4 to work out who is who, as the patch won't be relevant to ch 4 anyway.

 

[Dr.TSoni]

Willi not being faithful.

Or William was lying to himself until Monica, covering it all up with "twin bonding"

I agree about the timeframe being messed up, and William leaving while in school. I don't know how it is in another countries, but in my, depending on when is your birthday you can end high school as a 17/18 years old, but there is the question of Leia's boob, I don't know how too explain that.

I think, if my memory serves me correctly, that William in chapter one says that he ran away when he was 16 years old. And I also seem to remember that Ocean once stated William's age in a reply on Discord (25 or 26 I can't remember) I remember correctly that Katie is 21 (which I found a bit strange to be true, but it doesn't contradict anything).
Leia´s tits? A decade growing up or... cosmetic surgery.

In the past the age at which William disappeared was 16. now I don't know how realistic a late puberty at 16 is

My bad, Didn't remember that. 16 is a bit too young, the timeline is even more compressed than I thought, everything has to have happened in a little more than a year. From Wlliam and Leia dating to Monica incident, is a much shorter time than I was guessing.

Far too much conflabbing about unimportant characters, so here's more Kat

Maybe when she was self hurting(not eating) herself her boobs weren't growing at the normal rate it should have. The moment she started getting back to her physical self. Like when you get big too fast you get stretch mark on certain bodyparts maybe her nipples stretched out. who knows still I'd lick'em.
