While I agree that the Twist itself is dumb, and doesn't show Dylan in the best light, I actually like it, in that it's the first time I've seen Dylan show the courage I complain he lacks. It's not the dumb shit he does that I really have a problem with, but that he doesn't ask for help when he's over his head, and that he's not learning anything from the experience. Does Dylan apologise for failing History and promise to do better next time? No. He calls Bennett a bum and a jerk. Bennett is, but that's beside the point. For Dylan's behaviour I actually blame Liam. If Dylan had a proper male role model, he might not have the problems he does.
Character progression is one of my favourite things in games. I'm really loving the Ellie route at the moment, because her interest in Logan was that he was older, had a big dick, and is famous, so completely shallow reasons. But she shows she has a caring, nurturing side, first with Emma, and then with Jules. And now with Jules she's showing a real emotional connection, so demonstrating that Ellie is growing as a person. Character aren't, and shouldn't be perfect. But how they react the problems, even if they struggle, can make all the difference.
And yeah, I'm hoping that eventually the proof-reader will redo the last update as well.
