Guys, in all my gameplays I follow Seymour's route. If Lena rejects him from the start, will his trip still happen? How come?

I mean to be fair to him,i doubt everyone here loves all the plotlines this game has.
We all like our favourite characters,everyone has bias.
That may be true but you liking one plotline doesn't make every other one boring. He reminds me of the guys that say that their preference is (insert race here) women so they do not find other women that are not (insert race here) attractive. Weird. But he likes what he likes. Let him be.

Why would it still happen and who cares either way...why would we even see it if Lena is not involved with him? No reason to see it or anything else Seymour does unless it directly involves Ian's perspective.

I'm guessing all those people, spent all that time doing nothing but writing those books. Forget about eating, sleeping, having any leisure time, the things that normal people do. No, they just wrote and wrote and wrote, until they collapsed from exhaustion. And then a few hours later they started writing again, until they collapsed again from exhaustion. I think Eva is likely a normal person, who needs to do normal things, besides just working obsessively on a project till it's completed. Thus she can't churn out this game, as fast as those prodigies, with their obscenely abnormal workrates.
Well, there's a big difference between books and porn game scripts (or game scripts in general). Lots of authors writing books sit infront of empty pages for ages until they suddenly get hit with an idea, a vision, whatever you wanna call it. Once the ball is rolling they find themselves writing for many hours or in some cases days on end. It's often times described as an urge or even anxiety to lose this..momentum, the inspiration or whatever it is that hit you, allowing you to write and write...That's why you find lots of authors are writing their books within a couple days or even hours depending on the book.

For EK the difference is that she has to plan ahead for different routes, dialogue between characters depending on whatever route the player is on and different outcomes for a whole cast of characters aswell as taking into consideration the art that goes with it, length of scenes and thus the writing involved. Some of which a book author doesn't have to worry about. EK can have an outline for where she wants the story to go, but she can't possibly write the entire thing within a couple days.

That doesn't mean one is better or worse than the other as some user questioned, it's just a very much different approach and the comparison is really bad imo.

Since bad/wild Holly, isn't actually in a relationship, how could she cheat?
Holly can currently have increased holly_change variable even if she's in relationship with Ian (though i doubt this would push her into cheating) Alternatively, it seems that unattached, "changed" Holly can potentially hook up with Ian. This could be some sort of optional late entry point into relationship as well, and this version of Holly could theoretically be inclined to sleep around.

Is Emma's face supposed to be inspired by Abella Danger?
Emma is Abella Danger, Alison is the late August Ames,

We are all biased towards some characters, but it does not mean necessarily favouring one plotline because the character is in it. I dislike Ian (I dislike all male characters in this game except the mayor and Lena's father, and also the coaches), however he is at the center of my main playthrough, because I am trying to stick to the best-written plotlines and Ian/Lena romance is the best written thing in this game. Conversely, I absolutely adore Lena, but I stopped playing the slut route as the writing is crap, and have abandonned the cuckold route as it has become boring as fuck, and also somewhat depressing.

Not really sure how on earth one can see the Cindy path as the most interesting, but to each his own. The lewd scenes are beautiful, I'll give him that. To me Cindy is an ignorant and stupid entitled cunt; I have Ian dismissing her just after the photoshoot, he'll have only fucked her once, like a whore on a street corner at her boyfriend's birthday. The only shag she deserves.

I'm asking because of the branching possibilities, mainly regarding the beach trip... Eva will have to create two storylines: one in which Lena stays at the beach until its end, one in which she leaves early for Seymour's trip.

EK can leave the Seymour content out as far as i am concerned. just have the blog guy dig up dirt on him, inform the FBI and have his ass jailed off camera. you can have Emma let everyone know about it during some scenes and they can have a party about it where Lena and Ian celebrate being free of the asshole. Ian's book can be posted online and he can make his writing fortune from there. Lena can finally get free of that stalker and get on with her life.

Are you continuing the game from older save? There were some changes in the game script over the months, some involved how certain pictures are stored. It's possible that's what tripping you up. Might be worth to try and start a new game, so all variables are up to date.
No, i start playing like new game without any old saves

Well, since you've now laid out everything in that branch, there's no reason for EK to even bother with it. You've saved her a lot of time and I'm sure she is grateful.

I imagine Clone002 meant if Lena accepts the proposal but rejects Seymour personally....will they actually go on a trip together with such an antipathy on Lena's part and if so, how would the trip develop in contrast to the scenario I favor in which Lena embraces the proposal...."drawn to the darkness"? I experimentally did a run with Lena reluctantly taking the proposal but found it unappealing in a rape sort of way and did not persevere. Perhaps I will try it again after EK has finished this first trip scenario.

Every party needs a pooper; that's why we invited you....

Perhaps I got you wrong in your original post. I do not think it would be so labor intensive for EK to do the two renditions of the beach trip unless Lena's presence for the final days were to result in a new arc being generated and hence yet another branch opening up in the story. But you have me wondering whether a hostile, forced Lena would be accompanying Seymour on a "business" trip.

At this point the Seymour debate is moot. I doubt it will be part of Lena's half of the update unless EK has already announced it (Did I miss something?). In my opinion the Seymour arc, while way too tame, at the moment has some of the biggest potential. Axel having similar potential for depravity (e.g. BDSM) though no hints at group involvement on that path...yet.

Except for mention of an upcoming trip by Seymour to Lena. That may be in the next half coming in. But EK has been so slow to develop this arc that it may be a while. I agree it has the most potential. An erotic inclusion of Axel is possible ; I expect that would occur with Seymour ceding the handling of a Lena-Axel duo to Agnes. While that could be hot, I also would welcome seeing a Lena-Ian puppet duo. The latter would be consistent with Ian depending vocationally on Seymour.
