That's the scene where Jacky comes into the MC's room and almost catches him and Sydney in bed together. Jacky says a grown woman shouldn't go to her brother for protection. I don't remember which option it is, but either defending Sydney or letting her have it is probably the trigger for that. Here's how it will look once you have that:
How the hell is that possible.
That's... not good game design? The game shouldn't need you to go to an external forum in order to figure out how to advance the plot.

I think it depends entirely on what the developer intended for the game. This particular part could have been made clearer, that's possible. However, saying the game design is poor based on the fact that you didn't figure something out yourself is obviously an assessment colored by your experience. "Good" is a subjective term, especially since you don't know how the game's design compares with what the developer intended it to be. And given that most of the time I was (and others also were) able to follow along just fine, the data suggests something other than the point you've tried to make.
Whether or not this happens can't just be boiled down to any specific individual figuring something out. So a crossword puzzle is poorly designed because finding one word out is dependent on having already discovered another before it? Is a murder mystery game poorly designed because it wasn't painfully obvious who the criminal is before the denouement? Players are always going to have varying levels of analytical thinking, attention to detail, tolerance for putting one task on hold to handle other tasks for a while before returning to what's been unfinished.
Broadly speaking, if you can't get an event to happen, I think the most logical conclusions are: (1) not enough variations in how to trigger it have been attempted; (2) the event happening is contingent on other progress elsewhere being made first; and (3) there might be a bug somewhere stopping the event from triggering.
I see. Well, I disagree with the anorexia bit, and I think the toilet paper holder is clear to anyone who knows basics of physics and the quality of the holders IRL.With Anorexia and not using "cheap Toilet paper holders"
Yeah, I get that often in adult games the reality is that the actually 14-year-olds are claimed to be 18-year-olds, but I never felt like that with this game. The ages are specified, as you say; it's not being used as a way to circumvent censorship. Just judging by appearance alone, I'd say Sydney would be at least 19, and Lauren, Mandy, and Megan would be at a minimum 16. While some are not specified,
The dev's theory is all the movies and TV shows have teenagers played by actors in their 20s. So our perception of what an 18yo actually looks like is pretty warped. Take the girl from Slither
Why are you making this distinction? The statement was "in their 20s" which is 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 29. So, "25+" is already included in what they said.
