The thing with MC/Josy/Maya is all of them (MC included) were doing the same thing. He was messing with both of them and pursuing both romantically.

Josy was seeing him despite having a GF, but MC didn't do anything to stop her. He knew she was cheating, she did it with him. Maya was doing things with MC because she though they'd broke up, to her Josy was gone.

All of them could've been more honest. MC is not blameless in that situation. They did the smart thing by making up and not dragging it out, all of them are at fault.

MC definitely pursued both, and you can judge that fact if you want. However, he was pretty up front with both girls about what he was doing, and neither of them asked to be exclusive. If one had, MC might have had the chance to change behavior.

tl;dr I' don't think MC's reaction was unreasonable. I don't think the three of them are equally at fault. I'd like to see a successful Poly relationship, but if possible, it will be a huge challenge. I fear it may be a set up for the tragic climax again. I hope not.

Sorry for the novel! I typed this on my phone, so I may edit it for clarity when I get back to my laptop! Love this game! Can't believe I have to wait months for the continuation, especially when I know it will eventually put me through the wringer! Guess we're all in it together!

Holy wall of text... Josy was cheating, MC was cheating, Maya was not (she was under assumption that her and Josy were broke up). That's how I see it without all the filler.

Ehhh... I mean Maya was in a sense technically "cheating", even though both of them didn't official have words or knowledge about things.

How the fuck is MC cheating when he's not in a relationship with anyone? they both cheated on each other.

 

[TobiMAH]

Josy,Maya and the MC weren't really cheating?? i mean Josy and Maya were cheating on each other but what the MC has done doesn't count as cheating cuz Maya and Jost both knew that MC isn't in a relationship and even Josy told him "it's okay if you hang out with girls" or smth like that in ep3, MC isn't really cheating on anyone since he's not in a relationship with anyone but Maya and Josy were together and were cheating on each other imo.
Edit: Tserriednich'sNen already said what i just said but he said it in a few words

 

[Sancho1969]

I can see your point. I'm no doubt biased in the story already I must admit. Even though my main save I haven't ditched Josy I wouldn't have any issue doing it if Maya asked. If Maya turns into a Leah somewhere further in the storyline I'm gonna be chumped.

If you want to consider the closeness of their relationships between all parties you could in a sense say he was "cheating" on each of them. He had interest in Josy, and was seeing her, while at the same time he was interested and seeing Maya on the side so to speak. Relationship doesn't have to simply be status persay.

It's actually a very good post and I'd suggest you read it

There's no point in Maya turning into Leah 2.0, i think along the way the MC will have to choose between them, i just don't think DPC will let us have two girls at the same time

The worst thing is that this time I believe he will.
"Worse" because this time, I wouldn't like it. Not that I wanted to before, because I never liked that "two braids"

You say that now but considering the lets just say backlash and vitroil that happened after the first game, he might reconsider. Just a thought.

Didn't Maya say she was going to break up with Josy in a previous update or was that Josy who said that?

If memory serves neither was said persay, because Maya didn't brooch the subject and Josy said that she was going to explain things when she got to campus.

 

[TobiMAH]

I think we'll get a choice to either continue with both of them or choose between them, and maybe we'll get forced to choose cuz they might be like "we can't take this anymore and we want all your attention so you need to choose one of us cuz two can't get attention like one person could get"

He had interest in Josy, and was seeing her, while at the same time he was interested and seeing Maya on the side so to speak. Relationship doesn't have to simply be status persay.

Not really, MC is a single guy and free to pursue or mess around with any girl who he (us players) so chooses to. He was not in a relationship with neither Josy or Maya like they were with each other. When he tells Jill about Maya & Josy she's able to understand and tolerate his story because he's single and free to see other women, but condemns anyone doing so while already in relationship.

As for their developing relationship right as significant progress was made with Maya but before their's could go another level the whole Josy bombshell gets dropped on him (essentially ending that progress).
