Emi's pretty standard, so I'll put her at 3 acts. Act 1 is already done, so date her in Act 2 and have sex with her in Act 3.

I'm tempted to put Rin at 5, but 4 acts seems to work better for her. Act 2 is Hisao learning more about the art club, Act 3 is Hisao dating Rin, Act 4 is sex.

Hanako: Hang out with her in Act 2, learn specific details about her past in Act 3, date in Act 4, sex in Act 5.

Lilly: I'm gonna go the other way with her. Start dating in Act 2, get involved with her family in Act 3, have sex in Act 4.

Shizune: Hisao does council work throughout Act 2 and decides to seriously pursue a relationship with her towards the end, learns sign language in Act 3, goes out with her in Act 4 and has sex with her in Act 5.

I don't think Lilly's path is that long. She's going to be quite easily won over, I'm sure.

Shizune will have more problems. i.e. cock block of a trap brother, you fuck up your sign, etc.

I'm still holding out that if you make so many decisions you get a harem scene. :[

Scientists do it all the time, it's just they like to call it hypotheses.

You clearly weren't there when I took my physics and chem finals in high school.

Thats how my algebra II final on computer went (but they throw it out thank pedo bear)

-5 depending on route.
But even then, acts are sometimes longer sometimes shorter. It's not a very good yardstick.

damn i was hoping every arc would be 5

It's not "science", it's SCIENCE!...

They're different.

O_O
Yes, to make up hypothesis is a part of science, but it's not science per se. It's important to note that usually those assumptions are based on previous observations on the matter, not wild guessing to "see if it sticks." They could also be called "educated guesses," but, as viable as what HeMeido said seems, it still is no more than "wild guessing." Therefore, it's wrong to call it "science."

That sounds more convincing, even if it's a joke.
You forgot to underline the letters and put them on bold

I'm just curious if H-scene is going to be at the end of the character path or is going to be more? Basically what i'm asking is it that is to going to be; H-scene(s), then 'the end' or is there going to be more story after that? I dunno maybe one of the girls turns into a nympho or something. Or that it goes into a 'after high school' segment or something.

-Then again i'm just speculation here.

Never heard of "theology"?

I would think that H-scenes at the end of a game - as a final reward you could say - are a retro thing for eroge. Still I am expecting one path to end like this and if every path would follow this formula it would be boring and would feel cheap but I think I can trust the writers' skills here.
Sex has just to much conflict potential in a story to use it just as a kind of reward for the protagonist and the player. And then again the topic of sex could not be related to the overall drama of the scenario and could be just a byproduct of Hisao forming a couple with one of the girls.


My own speculation:
I expect Rin to be the first character to have sex with Hisao. I am basing this on some real life experiences that artistic people are quite openly minded when it comes to this kind of activity in a very early stage of a relationship. As for the Act it should occur in I have no idea - maybe "Rin's end" of Act 2.

Or something that most good novels do is have the characters get intimate, maybe have a problem or trust problem(a.k.a drama), get it over with, tragedy/happiness/understanding ensues, end. However like you explained it does depend on the girl. Balance is always nice

You mean in her route right?, you made it sound as if she was just going to have the cake first out of all the routes

I am slightly unfamiliar with the way you are phrasing it but I think I can safely direct you to my last post in this thread (or your quote) where I said that I expect her to view the topic of sex in a relationship as quite easygoing. By no way I was implying her to be promiscuous or anything of that sort of behaviour if that was your train of thought.

If I am remembering correctly I'd say Act 1 is about learning and choosing whom to pursue and the following Acts are about getting to know, befriending and dating said person. So sex in Act 2 Rin route could be possible.

I'm not sure how i would take a clannad segment/reference in KS. if their is i wouldn't expect anything more than a few CG's with Nakai and whichever rout character that had it. I'll call it here and say tezuka's rout will have that.

I think the game won't end on an H-scene, if Yume Miru Kusuri would be an indicator... well, with a LOT less porn than that game too. But the ending would probably be more 'feel good' than 'faptastic'.

This thread is yet another hint that people care more about numbers than what the actual game is like.

BUT HOW MANY WORDS ARE THERE PER H SCENE?

Damn! You mean there are words to go with H-Scenes?? Somehow I never noticed them...
