Apartment 502 discussion

That is your imagination. I did not replied to anyone specifically about that.

Oh really? That comment goes right after mine and the next lines are also replying to my comment. Then who did you reply that to then? Explain the context where that comment makes sense.

I go along with the narrative for its sake, assuming that my character was in fact taken with Rainn. But to be honest, I’ve never been a fan of people who are obsessed by their work. Me or my character couldn’t care less about how rich and successful that makes Rainn, if anything it’s a turn-off.

So while I’d roleplay a character that genuinely grieves for the relationship, they are secretely very happy being able to pursue other relationships than being the side-hoe of someone married to their work. Lmao.

But I’m curious to see how the story will progress and how Rainn will develop over its course.

It is funny how in the story thus far, all roads lead to ̶R̶o̶m̶e̶ Rainn. It’s like the gods in that universe really want some drama to happen like:

The god can want as much as they want, in my playthrough it won’t happen.

It will happen soon. He wont escape my MC. Whoever that new person is that Rainn hugged didnt meet my shy MC yet. She has a dark and jealous side. Cue the drama!

I don’t think it’s so much success and riches powering Rainn, and more ā€œit’s something i wanted since i was literally 12ā€. Most kids pick some careers they think would be fun at that age but eventually have to revise their lofty goals. Rainn never did, they seem to have this ā€œi was born to do itā€ mindset and they stick with it. Though it evidently becomes too much for them, bringing them close to a break point.

Oh yeah of course, I think for Rainn it goes way deeper than mere material gain. I was referring more to the choice the MC has of feeling intimidated about being with someone like her, the MC’s relationship towards it rather than Rainn’s.

Normally when playing these games the way I roleplay is by taking whatever backstory they have for me and figuring out how I’d turn out with those changes. Like, if that happened I’d be more serious, if this happened I’d be more outgoing, etc. So if I’m told this is my best friend, I’ll treat them like they were my best friend, even if irl they probably wouldn’t be.
Unfortunately, me falling so hard for someone through a long distance relationship is unthinkable, since not only have I dumped people cause they moved away, I’ve also lost contact with friends after a month or two of slowly less interactions cause we couldn’t physically hang out.

I’m late to the party, but I don’t know where else to go. Rainn is going to be mine again. I have zero self-respect. I want that juicy JUICY drama, and I don’t care what I have to do to make that happen. I’m going to to be the most ambivalent person, hot-n-cold! Ugh, Rainn <3 (to be honest, I love Athena, too, so…)

Sorry, just saw this. Honestly, after finding out she never even mentioned you to her friends, she essentially let you get to the zero hour of moving to New York, ghosted you and then acted that way at the bar in front of people?

If I could muster my self respect into a little paper cup; No. I wouldn’t take her back. She’s already shown what she thinks of you.

I am curious as to how this will play out for an MC that is completely done with Rainn’s shit. That bridge, to the MC, is completely burned. Does the story continue with Rainn trying to get you back for the entirety of the game? Does he hang around like a bad smell trying to ruin your new friend/relationships? If done well I could potentially see it as being cathartic, seeing Rainn grovel a bit, but if done poorly I could also see it being frustrating to the player (like some have expressed above about ā€œgetting overā€ Rainn).

IIRC what the author posted on Tumblr, Rainn will cease efforts after you lock in a romance with another RO.

Hey, I noticed that the demo in this post is different than the one posted on the author’s Tumblr, any reason for that?

Your ā€œCOG forums demoā€ is a link to the previous version of the demo, but the one in the OP of this thread is the same you can get from the Tumblr and points to the current version.

Very good story, writing fluid and very immersive. I can’t wait next chapters :blush:

Oh man, this is the first time in a long while I audibly went ā€œwait no not yet!ā€ At the end of a demo.

There’s so much about this that I love that can’t fit into a coherent comment, but I had been in a bit of a reading slump recently and today I was fully immersed in the story that after every moment I was silently thinking ā€œdon’t stop hereā€.

I seriously cannot wait for more of this, I don’t even know who I want my mc to get with cause everyone is so well written, hell I even went in thinking ā€œalright the person that dumped them is off the tableā€ but nope, not even them
