4 DAYS TO GO!
Only 4 days until release!
I think I’ve accidentally created a bit of a canon - once again Jake gets lost in a heated kiss! This time with Veronica.
Race of Life fans seem pretty divided when it comes to her - some of you love her, others still haven’t given her a real chance.
So I’m curious… what’s your opinion?
Do you think her story will evolve into something unexpected?

I have extreme difficulty doing any other route than Allison. I just feel so guilty for the past, and do not want to hurt her further, especially with a child together.
V is one route. I have taken this route; it is not my favourite. I have given V a chance, but I still don't like her.
I like Veronica, I have to admit though - her flashing the lifeguard left me with mixed feelings. It felt out of character for her, at least on my V-route.
I kind of agree but Jasmine kind of goaded her to do it. Also they've been at each other for leading up to this so its sort of a small boiling point. I think Veronica saw this as opportunity to showcase her confidence and assets (not complaining haha). And since the guard was gay it was more for laughs anyway. Just some women being a petty which is everyones right.
shes right up there in the top two for me.
This post has so many comments — looks like V is pretty popular in some way too? 🤣🤣🤣
Great.
Veronica... IMHO? She never could compete with the other girls. At all. For me, it was from the start Allison, Jasmine - or some of the other girls...
I already made my opinion known in discord when the last updated dropped, I still detest what you did with her with the whole flashing the 'gay' lifeguard...imo, it goes completely against her character as someone hopelessly in love with the MC and the fact that she notices the MC seeing her doing it and it never gets addressed is not only immersion breaking, but it completely destroys her character for me, because its implied that she sees that as something perfectly normal for a gf to do and a bf to be ok with. At the end of the day she is the character that least needed the risk of adding unsavory content on her route, since she never was a fan favorite, which is the real shame. I still like her body and I will probably still play her routes for completionism sake, but she isn't a route that I'll immerse myself going forward.
I never saw her flashing a 'gay' lifeguard. It's either part of a path I didn't take or it happened so fast I didn't notice.
I replayed a bit and after taking a step back and reminding myself that a character written to have more realistic expectations from their partner doesn't make them a worse LI, I've decided that I like Veronica much more than I used to. My 'gotta catch 'em all' attitude while playing AVNs made it harder to choose Veronica over others. I think being forced to replay 'Being A D.I.K's bullshit free-roam events jaded me toward playing through games multiple times but ROL doesn't share that tedious nonsense so thanks for that.
I loved V from the jump, hurt me to go behind her back but im a 'see all paths' harem kinda player. If i had to choose who to end up with currently its between V, Jasmine and Natalya. Doc needs more screentime as well
Veronica is my top AVN girl... only Felicia from Pale Carnations comes close. She's a stone cold fox, supports me in my career and emotionally despite my tendency to... stray... and is caring and creative. Her sex scenes are so interesting - voyeurism, cuckqueen, and the yoga scene. Holy hell is she hot, her facial expressions especially. I still can't get all the Steam achievements because I just can't resist the V
Thinking about it some more, perhaps, she is not a good fit for these types of games. In real life, where hooking up left and right might not always apply to a main character/protagonist, V would be fine. She is insecure, kind of possessive, hates how Jasmine and the other LIs have an interest in Jake, rage **** Jake because she wants to prove she is better than the other ladies, and that is all fine in real life. Also she is caring, supportive, and tender, good qualities in a GF. But in AVN, where the MC is kind of expected of hook up with different ladies, maybe a better fit would be characters like Jasmine or Natalya, who do not treat casual sex or promiscuity as some taboo evil that must be avoided. They embrace the fact that Jake hooks up, here and there, and they see no need to force labels. Like Jasmine, after the hotel scene with Jake, she said "no labels are needed after today" I am still your student and we do not need to be GF---BF or have any other labels imprinted to underscore the state of where we are. Maybe, V's qualities just do not make her as good of a fit in AVNs.
I love Veronica. Sexy, smart, and supportive. I understand a loud group not liking her but she's honestly my favorite I am so excited to see more!
The main problem with her is that at the beginning she already has a relationship with the MC that the player doesn't know anything about and makes you care very little, that makes it kinda awkward too. And since there's other options, getting locked down with her so early on seems just like a waste, not only for the story but playtime too. I think she could've a better chance with players if the relationship with the MC haven't developed so much already before the player takes control.
I would like her to come back.
Love her (probably the most) and honestly feels like the most grounding choice for mc redemption arc. Like she wants to be serious, she isn't prudish or withholding, she is down to lay it out and ride for the mc. Buuuuut like many others have said since not a harem game or at least what ive experienced with my choices its like youre missing out on a big part of an interesting (and spicy) story. Also like others said since she wants exclusivity makes doing stuff with others just overall a shitty deal that you know even though just a game wont be of any benefit. Which would be interesting to see her if she choose to be more of the MAIN li and shared "when she wants" giving her a more dominant side to the others while still being the mcs main squeeze. But that just my opinion. The game is awesome though and excited for more. Keep it up and this post does make me a bit hopeful for her story dev.
I think Veronica is great, looking forward to the possible cuckqueen path with her.
She is straight up "wifey" material. As a grown ass man myself, she's my main. I do have multiple saves though for each route.
I like most have Jammin as my main li so Veronica had to go she just didn't feel like the right fight for mc
It's not a harem game. She's not Jammin. You wrote a character with far better chemistry than the others, more common interests, no complicated shared past, no petty drama, and imho; the most attractive woman here. In a more grounded choice-based novel where we can't have every girl, we're gonna pick 'best girl'.
Nevermind the age difference and her immaturity at times, along with reservations about developing a deeper relationship? I honestly think Maggie has better chemistry even if there is a lack of shared interests, but that's besides the point and I do think the definition of best girl is still up for debate as the other LIs get more development. More to the point while it might not be a harem game there's no reason yet to not shoot for more if the option is on the table 😏
Love Veronica, she's my canon LI. Really hope there more depth to her and "our" relationship.
I like Veronica, but you put me in a situation where I had to choose between her and Jasmine. Jasmines gonna win everytime. Thats my wife right there lol.
Cheating on her in the hotel certainly made the relationship with her more interesting 😏
That's what I'm saying. If polygamy is on the table I don't see why we shouldn't see where it goes 😉
I found her far too emotionally demanding, especially considering all that was going on. It red flagged her very quickly for me. I also prefer more realistic proportions.
I do like her, it's just that I don't see her fitting with someone like Jake, I think she seeks stability in her relationship and Jake realistically would be anything but that.
I mean I think last epsiode showed she might be able to handle it now 😏
Dropped her quickly due to her clinginess/neediness but there’s more than enough good girls out there to focus on 🐌🐌
Not going to lie, on my first play through after the “accident” happened some of the questions and things she says to Jake gave me flash backs to Acting Lessons (if you know what I mean… not going to post spoilers here) and it just put me off and made me suspicious for a while. I eventually did a play through with her and enjoyed it, but I still can’t fully shake that feeling. I better be wrong…
That would be and interesting twist but I don't see that. I don't trust Natalie if I'm being honest, she has and agenda for sure. How it connects with MC and others characters I don't know yet
She is hot. But she came across as a bit too clingy and desperate. That was not a turn on. It was fun watching Jamin pushing her buttons though. I hope she is having a good time in Canada. 🇨🇦
I loved that scene. Jasmine was all cool, young vibe, confident and Veeronica was all but that. She instantly felt threatened by Jasmine even tough there was nothing to be jealous about at the time. That put me off. I mean she's a beautiful and successful women in a much better place than Jasmine and the moment young girl is around Jake, she's mad and unsure about herself and right after that she's running away not even fighting for Jake or for the relationship she seemingly so desperately wants
Jasmine is all that matters. And maybe Alexa. That is all.
Funny that despite age difference Jake and Jasmine have much more in common plus Jasmine si the one that's present in almost every major event in Jake's life since the story started and Veronica "serious girlfriend" is nowhere to be seen. Sure she's supporting Jake but she's passive
I would gladly add her to a harem but would not be my main... Nothing against her just prefer a girl who would fit the lifestyle mc seams to be in atm.
Oof, I have been nothing but open about my complete disinterest in her and her path. I've seen dryer sheet less clingy, and that completely uncalled for jealous hissy fit against Jasmine was a huge turn off. Sending her packing to Canada was a huge relief. Though I have a sneaky suspicion she'll be back this chapter, maybe even potentially vindictive enough to cause trouble for a Jake that's fooling around with Jas and/or Alexa.
I wouldn't go that far but now that you mention it, who knows. That'd be an interesting twist. I have a feeling bad ass Jasmine would put her in her place quite fast
She's beautiful for sure and quite supportive. On the other hand she's way too pushy and putting pressure on Jake, sort of desperate for commitment. All in all I don't think she's someone Jake needs, not my favourite. Black look great on her, I must admit
I like all the LI 🥲
Would place her last on my fav LI list from RoL. Mainly because of her personality cause her looks are great, can't deny that.
As long as she's open to sharing Jake I'm fine with it now. Before it felt really stifling and I was inclined to break it off until that possiblity opened up last episode. Unlike Jake the rest of us weren't married for years or dating for months to Allison and Victoria respectively, so they and the rest of the girls for me started on a blank slate, and it felt rushed to be made to commit so early on in the game to any of them. I genuinely do like all the Love Interests so far for different reasons though I have my preferences, and would rather the concept of monogamy not get in the way of showing them all that love if at all possible 😘
I love her, my favorite LI
It's not that I don't like her. I like her a lot. But because I like her, I don't want to cheat or hurt her, since there are some other ladies I'm also interested in.
I have a save for every main character! Waiting on Kalani and Tiana content now. 👀
I don't mind her. But I'm not interested in the protagonist being exclusive with her or cheating on her, so she pretty much just disappears from the game.
Exactly my way of thinking
I liker her alot. I understand the division, but people need give her a chance. Besides, a divided characters provides good drama and moments ;)
She’s my overall favorite. I’m biased as fuck no one can hold a candle to her for me.
I might like her more if she wasn't forced on to me at the beginning. That and being a cheater in the marriage are the only things I don't like about the game, there could have been other reasons for the split and you basically have to cheat on Veronica to pursue any other girls
I get your point - we chose a specific moment in Jake’s life to start the story. But maybe one day you’ll give her another chance… unless you’ve already decided to burn every bridge with her! 😄 That’s the beauty of AVNs - you can take a completely different path every time, unlike in real life. At some point I’ll definitely recommend trying her route, even if you’re not her biggest fan 🙂
Not in any of my runs 🤣
Maybe one day you’ll give her another chance! 😄
She’s canon for me, love her
4 Days Left 🥳🎉📆!!!! V for Valentine 😍❤️!!! I LOVE THE LADIES 😋! I LOVE EVERYONE EQUALLY 🥰!!! I'M A SIMPLE MAN 😁! Also, I could have sworn the 5-day posts were just released today 😅? Different time zone, I guess 🤣.
Yeah… I kinda overslept on the 5-day post 😅 I actually had it ready earlier but forgot to publish it and ended up posting way too late. Today I made sure to do it earlier, sorry about that!
She is too clingy for my taste so I've dropped her as soon as it was possible.
Fair enough 😄 She can definitely come off that way early on. But her story has a few layers, so you might see her a bit differently later - if you ever decide to give her another chance.
❤️best girl
