VN Ren'Py Yesterday's Crossroads [Ch.3 v0.4.1a] [CHAQUINN0]

[Talmadge]

I don't disagree. She's not my favorite character... I'll be curious to see how CHAQ tells the story though. With the number of loose threads and open questions there could be something masterful or a large letdown coming.

I'm particularly not a fan of her new look when she does come back. That's my biggest reason to walk away from her; I did like her look in the prologue. And her much more open and friendly personality. Now she's so reserved and quiet. If you do follow her path you can see parts of it peeking out again though... so I'm reservedly cautious about her character.

As for Kimmy, she's up on my favorite list. My biggest complaint is I really do NOT like the star tattoos. The rest are fine, but I find the two stars way too distracting.

While I don't know what the hell y'all are talking about exactly (as I said, I just started playing), I would like to chime in.

If she is shy, or reserved, and quiet now. You have to take into consideration she's been living in Korea for over a year. Women there are more reserved and quiet there. From all I've seen of their country. They don't go wild like American women do. So I can understand that being her personality now.

She was an exchange student at school on the first trip out, no? It's possible she opened up over time being out-of-country, the game never really shows that. She attributes a lot of her problems to the control of her father. If you believe her story, that's probably why. He seems very traditional and strict.

If like others here, you think she's just lying about it all, then I'm not sure of why the change. And there'd be no reason for her to return as she got away from the MC... so why come back at all? She's certainly not gloating to the MC about it.

I caught as much when she started to mention her father. I put two and two together and figured he was pulling the strings to bring her back. Plus, they kind of point out that she was demure when she first came to school and the MC met her. It isn't surprising if she had to revert back to that being back under her fathers thumb. Plus being in a place where women are more seen as second-rate.
I probably won't pursue anything with her after she comes back because I feel the MC is starting something new and needs to branch out. But it is good to know this stuff.

or Kimmy

SO. Keyla and her old man were fighting already. Sorry, not good with names. (Hers is on screen right now. LoL)
Does this mean she can be a LI later on in the game? Kind of like her look is why I ask. Thanks!

Yes she is a main LI (and your ex). Now how about complete the content, then start asking us questions?

Yeah she's a LI. The girls with galleries are the main LIs iirc. Everyone just comes with some level of baggage or were tied to the MC in the past, which is a little more realistic than most VNs go for.

You mean the chick who was supposed to be the MC's friend but didn't tell him that his girlfriend was leaving the country even though she found out like a week ahead of time? Yea, she'll be an LI... if you're into backstabbing bitches...

Sorry. I get impatient. LoL.

I never look at the galleries. So i didn't know all that. Thanks! And I agree. Most VN's don't know what realism is.

 

[Maviarab]

Sorry. I get impatient. LoL.

So do I.

 

[Quetzzz]

I believe you are right here but can you trust her? Granted, I don't think she could do enough prep to discover the MC happens to work for the same company.

The MC didn't move out of the city, though. If you're separated against your will from someone you care for deeply, and find out you'll be moving to the same city again... Wouldn't you try everything in your power to get into contact?
Why was she able to contact Kayla and not the MC? Couldn't she have asked her for his contact info and called him up? I think this does get addressed with Kim saying she wanted to get her bearings first, and didn't expect to be working with the MC... But seriously, does that pass the sniff test?

At best, it paints a picture of a Kim who's utterly inept. At worst, she regretted nothing and only got the tinglies again after seeing the MC (doing well for himself).

I agree. I can't really relate, because I've never been in a situation where I was separated from a fiancé I was in love with due to threats against them but I'd like to think that I'd try to keep tabs on them as best I could when away. Chaq does try to explain the Keyla contact but secrets don't make friends and all it accomplished for me was putting Kim and Keyla both on my never list, Keyla's own problems not helping things.

 

[Krepax]

Or Just play the game how its supposed to be played and have saves for each Li route to get all scenes

At that point I could open the .rpa archive and look at the files... I prefer games where it's kind of possible to have multiple LIs coexist up to a point (preferably near the end )

 

[Talmadge]

Well. Everything y'all say is all well and good. But I just gotta point out the obvious. It has probably been mentioned in the first few pages here. I don't know.

But this Dev must love the character make for the boss. I've already seen four people in here using the same template. Just different ages on it. LoL.
