Love or Lust: Beach Stories Endings: Love, Lust, and Balance

The three verified finish states

The achievements support three ending directions, matching the developer’s three-ending statement. They do not say totals are the only requirement, nor that every character uses an identical final sequence. Treat 45 and equality as finish targets, then maintain the route choices that fit the story.

For the balanced result, equality is more important than a specific high total in the public description. Save before the last choices, note both values, and make the smallest adjustment possible.

Love

Lover: finish with at least 45 Love

Lust

Filthy Mind: finish with at least 45 Lust

Balance

Perfect Balance: finish with equal Love and Lust

Use one branch point for all three endings

Keep a protected save before the final stretch, ideally while both Love and Lust can still change. Complete your strongest direction first. Reload, redirect later choices toward the other value, then use the remaining version to equalize them.

This may not replace a full replay if earlier route flags matter, but it gives you the best chance to reuse one run. Never overwrite the branch-point save until all three finish conditions have been tested.

• Record both totals before the final sequence.
• Finish the higher-value direction first.
• Reload and move toward the lower value.
• Use a separate save while equalizing.
• Confirm the achievement after the result.

Character finales and global endings are different layers

Achievements such as All In for Lo and Against the Traffic for Lu refer to a character’s finale scene. Lover, Filthy Mind, and Perfect Balance refer to the run’s finish state. A character finale and a global ending can occur in the same playthrough without being the same achievement.

Keep route goals and ending goals in separate columns in your notes. That prevents a missed gallery entry from being misdiagnosed as the wrong global ending.
