I think she wanted to ORS be somewhat vanilla/light BDSM story game, but then she lost her enthusiasm for the game/have writer's block and decided to write the game according to patron's wishes. We all had the feeling that the game will turn into the softcore version of GGGB.
I think she wanted this story to be something to that degree sure. Yet around Chapter 6, when she started and began the whole 'rework' bullshit with at the time Wade, everything started to fall part. Chapters later we got the "Stan Update", which made zero sense to begin with, not to mention didn't change him one damn bit. So the circle of downwardness really started back around Chapter 6.I think she wanted that ORS be softcore story game, but then she either lost her enthusiasm for the game/have writer's block and decided to write the game according to patrons wishes.

Yea. Many people complaining about literally anything in this thread. They want to completely change some things/characters for their own personal tastes/preferences instead of just sitting and enjoying the ride.
You can also....just stop playing the game,inst that a more healthy reaction?
You mean like writing a fanfic? Oh yeah, it's perfect for those who have ideas and can write but are not good with the development. I mean that's how you start learning. By writing a fanfiction you improve your writing and use the least complex program. If you have the money, you can hire someone to code/draw meanwhile you write.
Despite what she said, it was always where it was leading. Just a bit more fleshed out characters and a bit more grounded (no drug gang). That's also fans' expectations
This is unlikely, she already explained how it was a pain in the ass to do tattoos for Lena, especially in the lewd CG. She considered it for Ian (as we can see in the code) but she said she was very unsure she'd do it
Most professional female authors working in SF, Fantasy, and Romance will have cut their teeth writing for sites like An Archive Of Our Own.
This is why I was thinking that piercings could be a good idea. They are mostly hidden and when they are not, it's a simple layer which can be turned around and put in place with ease.
How can you be inspired to write about certain characters in a specific setting when we don't have enough inside in the characters and the conclusion of their arcs, because the game isn't completed and drags on for 5 years with little indication when, if and how it ends? And how can you write a fanfic about the characters when its not elaborated on how and why the act? I have no idea how you would write a proper Stan/Lena fanfic, because we get no explanation why Lena is interested in him.
Speaking of which, is Minerva content effectively done now other than maybe text messages?
Good lord no. An Ian that is falling for Minerva still has yet to give her that gift he can buy her.
Okay, I forget from the Chapter 12 content; I thought there was an implication it was done.
Does she, now? From what i remember in the game's script, if Lena has actually fucked Jeremy this makes Jeremy confess about it to Ian, which triggers
ian_lena_crisis and prevents late-game relationship from forming because it's then not considered "pure", which is a pre-requirement at that stage.It's not a bug.
elif v11_tell_dream:
"Lena looked at me and smirked before delivering her statement."
l "Never have I ever had a dream about my ex cheating on me and found it arousing."Only if they are still a couple then. In my PT Ian broke up with Lena because of Cindy, and he's told her about that dream. But she didn't mentionned it in the "never have I ever" game
Maybe it's a change in the game script, but it doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Lena will bring it up no matter the relationship status on her turn, with one exception: if the Holly Trinity is about to happen then she will prioritize talking about skinny-dipping instead. (but i doubt that would trigger in the play through where Ian broke up with Lena for Cindy)
