It is a little bit more complicated than a simple what is wrong or right. MC would have been perfectly justified if is Angry at Derek, for not telling him, that Maya has a girlfriend, at least this much. Derek could prevent some of the events. But it was not his secret to tell. He did what he could, said to Maya that do it right.
MC , regardless if he is on Sage path or not, should confront Chad at one way or another. This is definitely something that Sage need to know, but is really his responsibility, or its Chad's responsibility?
and Chad broke up with Sage. He free to do whatever the he wants. It is Just Sage obsession that she need to find out who is the " Bitch". But, She had not one chance to directly confront Chad, and yet She never did,
She scream, she punch, but She never directly tell him, that I have video evidence of you cheating me, even when he is breaking up with her , She just act abnormal. May be she is afraid of the truth.
I really don't know, I think it's complicated. More so, than telling Heather about Tommy, and most peoples only did tell Heather only because they hope this way they can Fuck her,
. basically for selfish reason, not because it's right or wrong
.
This is a prime example of why good communication is important in a relationship. Sage felt like Chad was cheating on her, yet she never explicitly questioned him on the subject, thus leading to Chad misinterpreting her words as daggers aimed at him for no good reason, and leaving Sage unsatisfied with his behaviour and actions. In a way, it's both of their faults; Chad's fault for not coming clean about what kinds of external relations he was having, and Sage's fault for not being direct and expecting Chad to understand her through subtle hinting.
But even if she had video evidence, since it was taken in the alpha's locker room, Chad would probably expect that the MC was the one who took the video since the jocks were there that day and fought him. Chad isn't dumb. He'd be able to put 2 and 2 together. I think of this as Sage's way of protecting the MC from being antagonised by Chad, which does in fact show that she somewhat cares for the MC.
I was thinking about Sage and her route and it seems that she is quite toxic in a certain way for many reasons.
First you help her when Chad wanted to force her to speak with him and that was the right thing to do but later she tries to make you help her to spy on Chad and that's the firts warning that this girl is no so ok, she noticed that you helped her and liked her and tries to use you.
Later when you see her in her room, she tries to blackmail you into spying again when you asked for your stuff and guitar.
My god, she has your wallet, your phone and your stolen guitar and she tries to negociate, doesn't she realise that if you go to the security she will have a huge problem and risk to get expelled.
That girl doesn't seem to be the honest type of person.
More when you see her again she seems to be the kind of girl who just want some vengeance and fuck with you to get some relief. You are her fuckbuddy nothing more.
And during all the game, she is supposed to be the president of the HOTs but in fact she doesn't give a shit, she has no interest in this anymore, all that counts is Chad.
Even the MC with his huge cock and urges has doubts and asks her to keep some distance and to think about she really wants.
So this girl is an egocentric person, she doesn't care about others, the HOTs, the MC, she wants Chad like a child wants a toy, she uses other people and plays with their feelings.
She is not a bad person, but as she told the MC her education was bad, her parents did not show their feelings and now she is a bit broken and lost.
When i'm with her i have the feeling to be sat on an ejection seat and that she has the finger on the button!
I mean, she IS trouble. It all depends on whether you like trouble or not. I don't see the blackmail part when the MC asks for his stuff and guitar back. The MC was the one who came in and accused her of stealing her guitar without understanding the full story first, and keep in mind this was one of the first few meetings he's had with Sage, thus there was no way Sage knew that the guitar was his either.
Plus, even if the MC went to security, what would they be able to do? After all, there were eyewitnesses that saw him leave their sorority house naked, and he WAS seen stealing a pair of panties. With all this evidence against him, he'd be the perpetrator while the girls in the house would be the victims. There'd be no risk of expulsion for her either, since she actually didn't do anything criminal.
And honestly, that's what fuckbuddies do. They fuck whenever they feel like it, and since she felt like it, she fucked the MC. Sure, it's a form of relief, but it's also intimacy, in a way. There are many cases where fuckbuddies who started out by warning each other to not grow feelings for each other end up with one of them growing feelings for the other. Of course, most of these relationships don't work out, but a select few end up together and have a healthy relationship, so that's something.
I also believe that she still cares a lot for the HOTs. She's the president, after all, but we just don't really see her doing her HOTs work that much. I mean, would you really want DPC to render scenes where Sage just discusses paperwork, finances etc. with Quinn? To add on, she's in her last year of college, about to graduate, and is able to balance out partying and studying. I don't think that's any simple feat. I only wish I could adopt her style of working things out when I start university next year. Would make uni a lot more enjoyable IMO.
But yes, in the end, she's still somewhat broken and lost. That is without a doubt. But her personality lights up my day and I love talking to her in game because she's fun, couple that up with some of the steamiest, hottest sex scene in-game, and that just makes her my favourite character.
