You should know that Doc can easily make a time-skip from days, weeks or even months. So it's quite possible to happen. But I agree with you, we should all wait and see what happens.

But even with a time-skip, the developer has to fill up two full episodes with something. With a tragedy that would cost the game a major player, I don't see how that is possible.

If this were episode 8, or even 7 (with 8 just a wrap up), I could see something like what is threatened here actually happening. At episode 6, though, not so much.

By the way, I am not saying that this game is going to end all unicorns and kitty kats. There is plenty of room for tragedy with Liam at the end, and/or anyone else.

But if the developer was telling us the truth that there will be 18 possible endings, I can't help but think that a few of them will be ones we can enjoy, and even satisfy the players who have such strong opinions about one NPC or another.

It kind of baffles me so many people wnt to quit this game after the ending of episode 6. I understand if u just wanna fap but at the same time, from what I've learned recently on this forum, u could literally fap to a 1000 things. To dismiss a story (and a good one imo) just because it has sad/drama/tragedy elements in it, seems a bit smallminded to me (apologies to anyone who feels offended, its nt my intention).

If u go watch a movie, read a book, play any type of game and the protagonist loses someone close to him/her (or have something terrible done to him/her), do just leave the cinema/throw away the book/stop playing? No, u get behind the protagonist u feel for him/her and u hope he/she pulls themself together so we can see that happy ending we all so much enjoy and love.

For example Deadpool 2 (i picked this movie cause its the most recent blockbuster and a lot of people have seen it):

And even if we dont get to see that happy ending, most of us will feel we saw a good movie/read a good book/played a good game, because it was able to absorb us in its story and took us for a ride, even if it can be a rollercoaster.

Investment.

Here you have people invested in those 2 girls, some of them don't care about the MC. I'm a lesbian, I don't care if he ends up with the love of his life or nose dives off a bridge hetero love lives aren't exactly my forte. I only play this for the story and the characters.

This episode has ended the dynamic between 2 characters which was one of my only reasons for playing.

Of course i didn't stop watching Deadpool 2 when his wife died, I watched those movies for the over the top comedic action.

Now for the cynic in me. You take 2 characters that have known each other from childhood and give one of the the shittest life possible but a friend that makes up for everything and it makes for a heartwarming story. Now end 2 episodic content drops on cliffhangers with one that could be the ultimate tragedy in a life full of tragedies and in a strange twist of fate it stops being tragic and feels more forced in an effort to try and squeeze tragedy in just for the sake of having something tragic happen.

It's a tragic travesty. There is such a thing as too much drama and when you take one character who's entire life has been drama filled and keep piling it on it kills emotional investment because, as with all things, you need a carrot as well as the stick and all Melissa has is the stick. Unless you've picked her there is no carrot and no point getting emotionally invested in her friendships or character because she's literally just there to be the devs whipping post in a "look how bad this girls life is ... lets see how much worse we can get it" with an ending that shows no other possible outcome.

My emotional investment was to see where the 2 friends went at the end of it all and see Melissa finally find happiness as he best friend finds love which is now lost for drama's sake.

My extremely long winded point is, my reason for playing is about to literally go up in smoke, I have very little reason to play a future update. I can't get the outcome I wanted regardless of what happens and i'm tired of seeing Melissa get nothing but the stick. As I said, it's just too much drama for the sake of it.

I'm not saying the dev shouldn't have done it, it's his game and people love drama i'm saying don't be shocked at people quitting. You potentially remove a reason people play the game it gives them less reason to stick around.

@Avaron1974, as I mentioned in an earlier post, you might want to step away until the game is completed. Then check out the guide to the endings that the developer has promised to see if you want to finish the game.

Has anyone else noticed that in some renders Megan looks cross-eyed? I haven't noticed it in any of the other characters, just her.

This ending seriously is not funny.

I'm considering stopping to support this game on patreon if either

I'm all for a dev telling his story, but games for me are escapism. I don't want stupid tragic endings like BW's ME3 ending or shit like that.

In Real life shit is supposed to end like this, not romantic porn visual novels.

pretty amazing mix between the bitterness and sweetness of the story. I just hope there is a way for Liam to survive, because this guy is sympathic as f.
