Are you sure? I am pretty positive that the "Architect of Orgasm" would only publish his book if Lena slept with him.

That is not true. Lena only has to be on good terms with Seymour for him to publish Ian's book.

No, the decision only hinges on whether Lena is interacting amicably with Seymour. In fact, if she hasn't fucked Seymour then he'll comment on it, with a dedicated text variant:
Python:
if lena_seymour_sex:
$ fseymour = "evil"
s "Oh, and sorry for keeping Lena so busy lately. She's a really fascinating woman, isn't she?"
i "What...? Oh, yeah. Absolutely... She's... someone very special."
if lena_seymour_sex == False:
s "Stubborn and guarded like few others... She's not easily impressed."
s "My respect. You must be a man of great charisma to have won over a woman like that..."I'm pretty sure it's still conditional on the boundaries choice, which is counterintuitive for a porn game (I like it this way though - too often in games merely picking the most "heart-ey" or "love" themed option is sufficient to guarantee progress with that LI)
What I DIDN'T like is if you're on full romance options instead of boundaries, if you snoop the photos, there's no restrained responses, literally ek makes the choices for you on how ian reacts; options ranging from break up immediately to take some time off from relationship.
AFAIK this isn't true - the only relevant choices are the 'boundaries' answer, and whether ian looks at polaroids at end.
This sounds like a specific path - when I select all enthusiastic responses to her prompts Ian seems very head-over-heels with her, not at all smug or pushy. Methinks you're projecting one specific dialogue route on to all of them.
100%, loved this update for Alison progression. I like how she reverts to her brunette hair if you react less than enthusiastically.
I absolutely loved the way this scene was done, furthermore the pacing felt perfect (which is RARE here, either turboslut events or dripfeeds).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separately a thing I've noticed as worrying trend- and I guess it's always been there but getting worse the more characters paths cross and weave:
I HATE how EK makes major decisions for you in the case of stopping relationships. With almost every relationship conflict in the game, the outcome is predetermined. It's crap, why not just briefly prompt the player? Examples of this are the numerous Alison/Lena intersections, Cindy/Lena intersections, Cindy/Alison intersections. It's little to no coding work since there's only 2 outcomes which already have their respective variables and labels, just need a short menu: choice to establish who the player wants to stay with.

Of course, it's also possible that Seymour is simply just dangling this possibility of publishing the book in front of Ian, but might demand... concessions... for it to actually become a reality, down the road.
See I made the age old mistake of trusting woman, I have learned my lesson.It's because she looks at you as a cuck.
Nah, I've got you bro:

I think they're referring to how Ian will have internal monologue about Louise not looking as hot as Lena and some other girls, and also rate her sexual prowess as somewhat lacking, compared to others he's been with. These are hardcoded remarks and can be indeed perceived as rather smug/mean, but i kind of like that they make the whole thing more grounded, in a way. It's pretty rare in porn games to explicitly "rate" character appearances and outright declare some are middling instead of super-hot.
I'm curious to see what comes of Victor, and how he plays into the morality of the story. He's clearly the anti-Seymour option to Ian's literary career. But does failing the publishing minigame actually result in anything different with him? It didn't seem to on my loser Ian run, which is the route I would have purposefully failed the publishing check, or in the case of Victor made the morally right decision about publicizing works of passion.
Similar note with Emma as well. Ian also had a chance to encourage her to speak with Seymour. We've long suspected that Emma might have a morality flip, but now that Ian can also encourage her, that seems pretty guaranteed. Dammit, Seymour is interesting again and it has nothing to do with his weird voyeurism of Lena.

I've been trying to avoid this thread due to spoilers but wtf is Eva's beef with Louise?! Is she based on a real friend she had a falling out with or something? First when I try to have Lena be interested I her she just talks about using her instead and it happens with Ian too? WTF!

The "publishing minigame" refers to back when Ian could approve book proposals that one time, right? What ended up being the correct choices there anyway?
1st and 3rd book are the correct choices to reject 2nd and 4th are the ones to approve to get a promotion. But I didn't notice a difference in dialogue, from Victor, if Ian reversed those choices. So there seemingly isn't a way to stick to your morals here as doing the "morally correct" thing doesn't offer a difference from what I can see, other than just not getting a promotion.

I always went with 2,3,4 and still got the promotion.
The outcome is a bit more complicated than we initially presumed:
* approving book 2 or 4 earns Ian a point each
* approving book 1 or 3 decks Ian a point each
* you get 1 "free" point, or 2 "free" points if Ian's Wits are at least 8, or 3 points if his Wits are 9+
You need 3+ points total to get promoted.

oh this is really good to know, I've always been going with 2,3,4 and was confused the one time Clark got the W over me. Must have had lower Wits that run.

Oh cool so you can get promoted if Ian's a smart boy, even if you just approve all the four books shotgun approach. "One of these are bound to be good!" Furiously stamps them all.
Can you do a Cherry, Cindy and Emma Router? Full Perry and Wade destruction
bro wtf that ianxlouis scene was soo hot! W evakiss
