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

[Quetzzz]

I understand not doing it right away but she could of at least got in contact after 2 - 3 months or so when she is settled. From my pov it makes her seem a little selfish because she left the MC wondering why she left and what he did wrong with no answers. Almost feels like she doesn't care for him as much as she claims she does to me because of this.

I vaguely remember the reverse happening? That they stayed in contact at first, but that it fizzled out. And then someone's number changed, I don't remember whose.
But, I agree... Where there's a will, there's a way. So I can only assume Kim lacked will.

"It's me not you. I am unable to muster the will to abide assholes or idiots, and it would seem you have earned both labels in my eyes."

Edit: I pasted in a few "clap" emojis, but apparently those aren't allowed here.
Have this one instead:

No, I think most people here think she's honest about how she interpreted things, but that her interpretation might not line up with reality. Kim's grasp on reality doesn't seem very firm. Just look at how she lost contact with the MC, but not with Keyla.
Also, she hasn't been gone for a couple of years.

Not you specifically, but there are some that question her honesty and not just interpretation.

Her understanding of her father may indeed be oversold.

Although Kim did say that her father told both her and her sister what he did to her sister's boyfriend. And then they saw the results of the boyfriend's "accident". If both of those are true, it's hard to misinterpret that....

Fair. My main concern here is that we don't have all the context. Then again, I really need to replay this game because my memory is fuzzy.

Perfect time after a brand new revamp. I just played through all the paths now, so it's more fresh than it has been.

We definitely don't have all the context. That's what leads to speculation as to what's actually going on. Is the dad involved in gangs or organized crime? Is he really that evil? Is there more going on? Why does she feel that her father won't find out about the MC again this time around? If he has resources, how would he not find out where his daughter went and get her? If he could track down and assault the sister's boyfriend and according to Kim has the resources to reach the MC how is he safe now?

tbh this is my biggest issue with Kim is the fact she was still in contact with Keyla but not once did she contact the MC. I could forgive if her if she made any kind of effort to get in contact with the MC.

But the mc tells Zeke about it , he says " she stopped anwsering my msgs , has been a few months now since the last msg"
Also when she is back , she sent a msg to Keyla about it , and she even says that has been a while since Keyla and Kim had talked/texted each other .
Well what they talked about it.. WHO KNOWS?!

Now...I dont think theres anything to "forgive" about Kim , like mc said " is your life, you have to choose what is the best for you" . OF course i understand the feeling , the sadness , the anger about losing someone you loved for a few years ( idk for how long they releationship was , i know that has been 6 years that they know each other , but thats not the time that they were dating . so i dont know how long it has been ) . For me the only wrong thing she did was to hide from him , after all you are in a releationship , you should trust and confide in your partner , her move about hidding from him shows me that theres no trust here . She said to him on spot a day before because " she was afraid he would made her change her mind" , but even a day before, if SHE really wanted , she could stay anyway , because they talked over even a day before leaving , he even brought her to the airport , so theres were plent of time for her to take the decision to stay if she really wanted.

Also about her father , could be true , but what "power" does he have over here in USA ? who knows , still was not a valid point for me to her do all she did.

Here is the thing , like i said, theres nothing that she did that i should "forgive" her for . Its her life , her choices . But i also have mines , and mine choice is to not be friend with her , you cant expect to leave for a year+ and come back in my life like nothing happened. Im not mad at her , i dont hate her . But i dont want her back in my life , simple as that ( well that would be my decision if IRL . Actually i had those choices with a few friendships in the past , so i cant tell u that i did exactly this ).
Well unfortunately they are both employers in the same place , that i would endure with no problem, but like i said, i wold not act like buddy buddy with her , i would only talk to her if was necessary because of the work.

Guess I forgot about that part but anyways I think my biggest issue is she never tells the MC the why until she comes back and who knows if she would of ever told him if she didn't come back for work. As the rest of it I can understand even if it isn't true she believes it's true and that would be enough for me.

 

[duz1nn]

Now About Keyla , for me she is another one i wouldnt be friend with. They had a history in the past, i got that , can you really call it LOVE what they were doing back in the days ? the so called LOVE she felt for him , made her accept to marry another man , just because the mc was getting close to another girl and she didnt wanted to "intervene" with it ?
If that was the case, why she didnt choose to be the GIRL that would stand by his side when his dad passed away .
For me thats all bullshit. Specially the part where she chooses to marry a guy that she doesnt even like.

So you see for me Keyla is another girl that enter in my blacklist , that i will ignore untill the game reachs the end of it.

But regardless of those two girls , this vn has a lot of potential , theres a lot of girls here and a lot of them seems very interesting. Theres some of them that are already in a relationship , or seems that are sided characters , but they look very good and very hot , so im very interested to see if something might happen in the future.

Exactly! All valid questions. Something I wonder about as well is, why isn't her father arranging a marriage for her if status is so important to him? It's certainly culturally acceptable for him to do. And while Kim was burnt out and depressed would've been his best opportunity to do it, with her lacking the mental strength to fight it.

I was hoping this part got rewritten in this version. It really doesn't paint her in the best light.

 

[Dessolos]

haha im playing all the paths even of the 2 characters you dislike ( which is also my dislike list as well). Tho I think I was somewhat coming around to maybe being more neutral on Keyla in the last update. I just want to see everything this game has to offer. But yeah if I would play base on my likes and dislikes id never get near those 2 if I didn't have to.

 

[SlowGoesSlow]

I still think the worst thing Kim did wasn't leaving or the weird talk about how she had to due to her father, it was her saying "I love you" to the MC right before getting on the plane. That was pretty dirty to say for someone who wants you to supposedly move on from her after she's gone.
Keyla is a whole different story. I don't understand her camping strat. Those brain worms are beyond me. Literally everyone else and ending up alone before those two.

Noob

In my defence - it was 1 AM where I live, sleepy

 

[Varrock]

come on with the spider jumpscare man, damn

 

[gka7]

is there new context? because when i load my saved files i reach the end ''thank you for playing etc''

There is no new content (well, not at the end anyway). You can check out the Changelog in the OP each update to tell you what has changed.

 

[Skylaroo]

Just started my first playthrough and finished chapter 2 so far. Is this a game where I have to pick a solo path for each girl while also basically rejecting any interaction with all the other girls?

 

[Maviarab]

Almost feels like she doesn't care for him as much as she claims she does to me because of this.

her leaving all of sudden without any answers

This. These are not the actions of someone you supposedly love and care about.

I wonder the same thing. I started fooling around with Julia, but then nothing of note was going on with her after I started something with another girl. I don't know if starting with someones else stops what you're doing with the last one or not. Kind of confusing.

There very quickly comes a time where there are clashes in events with girls.

This isn't a harem game, and there is no hand holding telling you what to do and what options to choose, the choices you make will have consequences in the future. You can already see this happening in Olivia and Julia's paths.
