To each their own. I personally find test footage / images / scripts fascinating because we rarely get glimpses into the creative processes of film or game making. In this case it's an insight into what EK was thinking about and raises questions. Whose dicks are those? Is EK seriously considering a BBC route for Cindy? Who's phone are we looking at: Ian's? Wade's? Cindy's? What event was this meant for? Etc.




I can't speak for Eva, but I giggle thinking about all the fans that unironically would have gotten upset at the idea of Cindy cheating on Ian. Knowing full well Ian deserves it because Wade is a good dude, just in a bad place mentally, and doesn't deserve it.
But what led to "Cindy with BBC" discussion at the first place?

Does anyone know what decisions need to be made in order to get the option for a true open relationship during the beach house event? Somehow I've gone through two entire playthroughs (the second one following a walkthrough to the best of my clearly limited ability) and fucked up both times.

Is it just as simple as
1. Ian and Lena are in a relationship
and 2. have both cheated on eachother since then

or is there something else that I'm not understanding?

Don't need both to cheat. The easiest way is at Ivy's birthday party take the drug and blow either Mark or Mike. From that point both can be faithful. Ian confronts Lena at the beach and depending on which choice you make either one can ask for an open relationship.

I see... I'm trying to figure out where I went wrong most recently, and, looking at the walkthrough more closely, it seems like cheating on Lena with Cindy might be what fucked me over.

Am I understanding right that IanxCindy overrides any possibility for the open relationship?

Does anyone have a counter for Ian x Ivy questions? Someone should have a counter for Ian x Ivy questions!

I nominate SerHawkes as tracker of sorrow and disappointment for all Ian x Ivy fans. All in favor?

Pretty sure you can have Ian cheat on Lena with Cindy, but he has to deny doing it and flip the script on Lena by calling out her cheating.

Then, looking at the walkthrough yet again, I think my fuck-up might have been taking some of the choices that put me on the cuck route.

Looks like if you have a cuck score of 2+ you don't get to confront her about cheating at all, which makes sense I suppose. Doing a ctrl+F for "cuck" gives 150 matches in this document and I just don't think I have it in me to carefully monitor my cuck score throughout another legit playthrough. It takes enough mental energy minmaxing my cuck score in real life.

Respect to the dev for juggling hundreds of variables though. This really can't be an easy game to develop.

You could do the Ian/Holly version of trinity, right? No cucking Ian if he isn't with Lena until then.. :unsure:
