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

[Justaphase]

While I ended up liking her, I understand that most people will hate and mistrust her, If it happened to us irl most would probably never trust her again after what she pulled.

Also, in my opinion the reason why she did everything is the weakest part of this game, her story almost feels as if the game is trying to shift all the blame to her father, I kinda wish her reasons were more selfish like missing her family in Korea or feeling too young to commit to a guy in a different country... I don't know, I think I would have understood her reasons better if I found them more believable, even I had issues liking her initially until I decided not to take her backstory as seriously.

Yep, the biggest problem for me is not even that Kim felt like she had to leave. It's the fact that she's now back when the reason why she left is still a problem surely? Especially the more time that they spend together...even now it seems bringing her sister into it. Giving her apparently psycho father even more reason to potentially hurt the MC.
So yeah even a "I've had a new job opportunity in Korea that I can't pass up." then they just drifted apart. I could understand and potentially forgive and understand that more than the father reason.

Dunno, when your GF just suddenly leaves without saying a word (reason), leaving you hanging and wondering what happened or what you did wrong... yeah, no.
Whatever the real reason was - evil father, job opportunity, missing her family in Korea, - it’s not "why" she disappeared that bothers me, it’s "how" she handled it. Kim thought only about herself, never once considering MC’s feelings. Hell, correct me if I'm wrong - Kim even told her "supposed to be" friend (Keyla).
And now - what changed, causing this change of heart? - she suddenly comes back and wants to go all lovey-dovey again? Nah, I’m good.

Sure, everyone slips up, but ghosting someone and thinking it’ll all be fine later? That’s not a mistake - that’s a choice.
Well, it only means more of Kim's love to you, guys, since you're more forgiving .

Whatever the real reason was - evil father, job opportunity

And this awesome job opportunity turned out to be… an influencer's assistant. Surely a dream job for which a girl from a rich and influential family can leave her long-time serious boyfriend for! This might not be the reason she eventually gives the MC for leaving, but afaik this actually is how her family understands the situation.

this is my main reason for disliking Kim. I would be fine and understanding of her not telling the MC right away since she actually did fear her father even if it might end up being BS. But as long as she told the MC maybe a few months later when she got settled I would of been okay with it since it seemed her fear was genuine no matter how much I don't believe it. I don't believe she would of ever told the MC if she didn't come back either. I am still gonna play her path but just for the sake of seeing everything.

I might have been able to forgive Kim if she hadn't told everyone under the sun except MC. I will never play her path for any reason whatsoever. It's an annoyance to me when MC has to deal with her; so much so that I have made a dialog mod for my own enjoyment. In my version of the story MC is as rude to her as he can possibly be within the context of the story.

you know I always say I didn't forgive Kim but I don't hate her

But brother, after hearing you explained it yeah, what she did was really, really bad

What I think we should do is focus on building our life and future with Kimberly, having a lot of babies

and leaving the past with Kim and the previous love interest behind us

Sounds great! Care to share the mod?

Yeah, fixing the MC's mistake of mixing two Kims up. I mean, happens to the best of us.

 

[motseer]

Hmmm... let me think on that a bit. I don't want to get into copyright issues or anything like that. I might need to get permission from the dev and I need to think about whether I want to get into it that much. It's looking like there will be a lot of Kim content in the next update, so maybe when that comes out I'll look into it. Thanks for the interest. It might be something entertaining to do...

It's a very simple script of Renpy code. All I do is type the line of dialogue I want to change inside the first set of parentheses, and then the dialogue I want to replace it with inside the second set. I call the file "edits". After making a change, save the file to your "game" folder; when you restart the game your changes will be there. Here's the file with 50 lines of empty dialogue ready to go.

Maybe if I slip you a copy of my edits you will enjoy it more. Of course, then I'd have to give one to Zorro#34 too, just to be fair. Next thing you know, everybody wants one and I'm a modder. Hmmmm... yeah, nevermind.

eh it's not a big deal, I can tune it out. I won't play her route but I don't skip the main story scenes when she is in them. But I hope we don't have to forcibly play nice with her or "save her" or whatever.

The fun part, for me, about changing the dialogue is that the game code stays the same, so I'm not really changing anything. At the same time, I get the satisfaction of not "playing nice" with a character I really don't like.

Dev Log #23 - Chapter 4

I’ve been working on some of the sex scenes over the past few days, finishing up the posing so I can get them ready for animation. I want to complete all the static renders first so I can focus solely on the animations last. It’ll already be helpful to have them “engaged,” if you catch my meaning.
As they finish rendering, I’ll post another exclusive (NSFW) preview for subscribers soon.

Also, I’ve been working on some original music in Cakewalk (music creation software) on the side, but as things stand, they might not be finished by the time the chapter is ready. So I'll keep on the search for new CC0 tracks and reuse some of the ones already in the game. Thankfully, there are plenty lined up and ready to go.

It might seem like things are taking too long—and they are—but there’s been solid progress considering what I can do for the time being. Every girl has plenty of content this time around, so there's plenty to work on.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

I get that... I sometimes think about how I would have written a particular AVN scene differently to be more to my liking, but never actually did it, kinda lazy for that

 

[Dessolos]

Honestly I don't mind when the MC is to nice to Kim. I kind of find it hard to be mean or rude to a LI even if they did something wrong. They kind of have to be a villain levels of dislike for me to not give a shit and pick dialogue options like that. Kim isn't close to that for me I just strongly dislike her

 

[Vignox]

After reading some of the responses some of you guys go a little bit too far on the hate. Why go so far as to change the script of the game just so you can hate her more? you have some kind of fetish?! Or are some of you guys abusive towards women?. Dont get me wrong if she cheated i am with you i HATE cheaters but this is kinda too much but i guess each their own

Yeah, I get that. But, you're a nice person. I am not.
