Thanks for your reply. Hm, I like having Rick and her be a couple while MC bangs her around his back, is that maybe the thing that's blocking the talk with Thomas? Does that lock me into the NTR route? I am pretty sure this was not blocking in earlier versions of the game though.I don't know the exact conditions but it probably depends on how you enter the NTR route.
When I go for Kate NTR I usually start a relationship with her before choosing the NTR (meaning, I don't fail the mini game and don't let Kate build affection for Rick). I raise her affection to 20, trigger the conversation in her room for "something more", eavesdrop Thomas and her, play the mini game a few more times until the option "This has to end!" triggers. After, you talk to Kate, she calls Claire and make the relationship "official". Next day, talk to Thomas and he offers you the room if you allow him to "punish" Kate when she fails (note that choosing this will make Kate fail automaticly regardless of how well you did in the minigame if you play it that day).
This screenshots are from a new game where basically I went almost straight to the inn.
It just seems silly me to block the route - there's the option to help her, just let us help her?
I just ran another test (Kate A15 C5, affection with Rick at 4): I throw the serving mini-game ("I am not in the mood to work"), go upstairs, help her, talk to her on the bed (didn't start relationship yet since MC didn't put his arm around her yet at the table), go to bed. Next day, I do the exact same thing, and I am not able to help her anymore (not enough money, but I do have enough). Something's got to be bugged here?
