I'm not sure which is more worrying: Dalli's BaD theories or Preston Jacob's ASOIAF theories.
If it drops in early October which I really doubt. We know that DPC is really punctual with the two week beta testing time, so mid or late-October looks to be the more realistic release date.right now we have to hope we are not already, the ninth chapter is in danger of coming out 7 months after the interlude
I'm usually pretty vocal against slow developers when they have a huge income...but this is the one game that I'll give a pass to because they always deliver. It's to be decided whether it makes much value for the patrons who are probably paying 30euro per update, but then again - who are we to tell people how to spend their moneyIt will push the development time to over 7 months though. If this keeps going on, we'll get to a point where we'll get less than 1 update per year.

Yup I know what you mean, "test Sage" is my initial playthrough where I simply do what I want, without overthinking some RP and variables. So obviously I fucked Jade, boasted about it to my bros, but later on I chose Sage, so "fuck, fuck, fuck!" line by MC was 100% accurate in my case. Now I'm kinda sorry for MC to step into a cage with pissed off Jade and cucked Stephen... Unless Burke will once again prove to be our homie and he'll simply high-five MC and say "niccce"I presume a lot of you, if not most of you, have a primary run, the one that speaks to you the most, where you chase your favourite girl(s) and make the decisions you're most happy to live with, and this will be the one you start with when you resume with Episode 9.
So here's a question for ya'll:
Do any of you have a primary save where you're mc is still fucking Jade and you chose to give the "Jade fucking video" to the DIKs (i.e. Burke has seen it)?
That's my main save. Its the "Absolute DIK" run. Ploughing through as many girls as possible, with my main sights on Quinn. It's like the most surreal experience, with the mc's cock moving from one girl's mouth to another girl's cunt, with the occasional girl's asshole and then back to some lucky girl's mouth again, so why not let Burke see the mc fucking Jade. Let the chips fall where they may, I say.

My main run is CHICK-ier than a coop, so obviously there's no Jade video to worry about. I do have a full-asshole DIK run that picked Others and shared Jade's video with the DIKs.

I don't want to reignite old debate wars, but Tybalt's threat isn't entirely empty (though it would be a civil suit, not a criminal action). Given how overpriced everything in the mansion is, the sprinkler probably did tens of thousands of dollars of damage, and the MC snuck into the party then sprinted down the stairs with either Maya&Josy or Sage right before they turned on. I doubt that's enough for Tybalt to win the suit, but it's enough to drag the MC to court and run up bills he can't afford.The problem is that Jill just takes Tybalt at his word that the other Preps would back him up. We know from just a couple of conversations with the other Preps that they hate Tybalt as much as anyone else and wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire let alone back him up in court. Surely Jill living with them should be able to see that too? All she had to do was ask another Prep what happened and she'd know that Tybalt hit first (if indeed Fuckface even hit back), there was no fire and the worst thing done was the egg throwing, and that's what the other Preps would say in court.
I'm sorry, are we talking about the same MC? I mean you're not wrong, but we all know our boy is less inquisitive than a congressional sub-committee on corruption in congress. It wouldn't surprise me if he's stunned to learn prostitution is illegal when Quinn's restaurant is finally busted.now that the relationship with Bella is "official" it can't be long before they broach the subject
it is already extremely ridiculous that they started without doing so.
Actually, Jill's magic polaroid will automatically ward off Nora as well as Nichole/Sandy in Episode 6, so the game is at least consistent in that regard. Banging Nichole in Episode 8 still has no explanation though. Maybe the MC figures strip clubs are a loophole?I think you can fuck Nora and it doesn't make sense than't you can with Nicole and Sandy... I can already imagine that DPC will do a drama with Nora that she and Jill meet each other or something like that
We'll see
You can even fuck Nicole in EP8 while still on Jill's route so... What happened there?
AFAIK, Lily will only offer to bang the MC at the HOT party if he has Neutral or DIK Affinity (Affinity, not Status). CHICK MCs won't even be invited back to her room. But if Lily does invite the MC for a drink, there's no payment expected because she's interested in 'rolling' with the MC.Just one thing I've seen, was wondering why, on my current Neutral Chik (was about -5 when it happened) run, at the HOTs party, when I met Lily I didn't expect anything at all, like when I was a pure Chick, but she invites me to her room after I make the moron go away, really was expecting for her to ask me to pay, like when I was a pure DIK, but nope, she went with pretty much everything I wanted. Same thing with Camila when I brought her a drink, she said Quinn wouldn't like that but fuck it, she'll manage with, then the 3some with Riona she says that it's covered and Riona doesn't ask anything, while the situation didn't even present itself as a Chick, and I still had to pay when I was a DIK.
Seems a couple of HOTs prefers Neutral over DIK affinity, which is fitting in my opinion, you see that Riona is disillusioned with Quinn's antics, Camila can't get over Mona leaving and you can see she's uncomfortable anyway, even though she goes with it, and Lily is a tough one, her discussion in that scene about if the MC was an item, that she was interested, that a DIK and a HOT could have a lot of influence together... she's trouble !
I don't know how I did it in my first game but I thought about Jade's decision for more than five minutes and in the end I rejected it... Thank goodness. Though ,I also haven't seen the DIK reward and seeing people talk about those scenes as if they were nightmares, I think it's better for others to have nightmares.Yup I know what you mean, "test Sage" is my initial playthrough where I simply do what I want, without overthinking some RP and variables.

Funny, even on my idgaf-unlock scenes-DIK run I couldn't tell Derek. I know, it's a game, who cares, but nah couldn't do it haha.My main run is CHICK-ier than a coop, so obviously there's no Jade video to worry about. I do have a full-asshole DIK run that picked Others and shared Jade's video with the DIKs. Curious to see what happens there.
Iirc Lily is a bit "two-sided". As Neutral or CHICK, you can get her lewd scene at the prep party for free (while DIK has to pay). This should also make her invite you into her room at the HOT party (even as CHICK). Otoh, as DIK, you get invited regardless even if you didn't get her lewd scene at the preps. As a DIK, you can also help her with a scavenger hunt task.AFAIK, Lily will only offer to bang the MC at the HOT party if he has Neutral or DIK Affinity (Affinity, not Status). CHICK MCs won't even be invited back to her room. But if Lily does invite the MC for a drink, there's no payment expected because she's interested in 'rolling' with the MC.
For that reason Riona says checkmateMy main run is CHICK-ier than a coop, so obviously there's no Jade video to worry about. I do have a full-asshole DIK run that picked Others and shared Jade's video with the DIKs. Curious to see what happens there.

I doubt that's enough for Tybalt to win the suit, but it's enough to drag the MC to court and run up bills he can't afford.
So I don't blame Jill for worrying about the MC. But I absolutely blame Jill for everything else. She didn't bother to investigate in the slightest, she didn't try to negotiate a better deal from Tybalt, and she didn't think to get the MC's take on it until he forces the issue (by trying to kiss her at the picnic or by talking to her in the hall). Hell, in Episode 7 she panics when she realizes Tybalt actually intends to collect on the dates she now owes him. WTF?!?
Frankly, the Tybalt blackmail subplot was a complete shitshow that made Jill look like a rank idiot. I sincerely hope it's dead and buried and we'll never need to think about it again.

It's a little different with Camila and Riona, because they're part of Quinn's restaurant. If the MC joined back in Episode 1 (which isn't directly unrelated to the MC's current Affinity, but most DIKs will have joined) the girls need to charge him for the good time. There are various ways around this, but they all come up in dialog. If, on the other hand, the MC refused to join the restaurant, then the girls apparently feel it's fine to bang him just for fun so the topic of payment never comes up. So it's an indirect victory for the CHICK side. Take that, Quinn!
If by "DIK reward" you mean VIP pass that unlocks scenes with madame ( ) then yea, you're definitely not missing out, nightmares guaranteed...I don't know how I did it in my first game but I thought about Jade's decision for more than five minutes and in the end I rejected it... Thank goodness. Though ,I also haven't seen the DIK reward and seeing people talk about those scenes as if they were nightmares, I think it's better for others to have nightmares.
first of all, in this situation there is also Bella who has a moral duty to clear the air.I'm sorry, are we talking about the same MC?

Meh, it'll probably pick back up again once the release comes out. It's just that it's been so long since an update (for the main story line) that it's fallen out of relevance for now. Just part of the natural ebbs and flows of things. Though if one update per year becomes a regular thing then I can see overall interest over time declining as more people just more or less forget about it each time.It seems to me that the popularity of this game is declining, nothing new. We stomp on the spot.
Bullshit. We are now in a big window between releases, activity is lower of course. Although only this weekend in the thread was written posts on 15 pages.It seems to me that the popularity of this game is declining, nothing new. We stomp on the spot.
I think you're right about summer, and I think the Interlude was meant for him to... I want to say 'reconsider', but not exactly that, perhaps painting the big picture, and take his time for the next season as a whole, he seems very structured, and that choice we made in Crossroads, while there's still 2 seasons left, there must be a lot, a lot of brainstorming to be done just for the potential mapping and pathing, people most of the time focus on the renders and animations, but at this point, the coherence of the story, the new elements he wants to add, new characters, and I suppose the characters he wants to 'erase'. Also, he had covid at the beginning of the year if I remember well, not everyone recovered from that easily.Meh, it'll probably pick back up again once the release comes out.

However, I think this was just a one-time instance because of the Interlude and I'd say we won't really see whether that backfired until after we see the level of interest and Patreon subscribers a few months after the ep 9 release.
Plus it's still summer and people are probably actually out and about or on vacation or something. August is usually a dead-ass month for many things.
I think it may be because we're a bit crazy.Bullshit. We are now in a big window between releases, activity is lower of course. Although only this weekend in the thread was written posts on 15 pages.
The game is number one in likes and views and is in the top 3 in rating. Sure here things are on the slow side you could say but its the low point before EP9 where we know we are over haft way there but don't really know. IF the interlude( I think its was the interlude) broke the site like its Kim Kardashian ass (Zoey's is better) then I can only imagine what will happen when 9 comes outBullshit.

Say it again after Ep. 9 release, ok?It seems to me that the popularity of this game is declining, nothing new. We stomp on the spot.
Nah, everything you makes sense. Plus the covid thing. He's a real trooper for bouncing back so quickly from it. I agree that the Interlude probably was something to help reorganize things and give a potential out. It's just at the end of the day, looking at the cold, hard facts it'll probably be over a year or close to one since ep 8 and most people don't care enough to keep these things in their minds. I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if overall popularity took a hit. I'm not saying it's definitely going to happen or even if it does happen that it will be a huge hit. Probably, just that it wouldn't be good long-term if it did end up as 1 update per year.I think you're right about summer, and I think the Interlude was meant for him to...

Not trying to find excuses, but I have hope that he took the time to create his story for a while, trying to create and place renders and animations while trying to figure the story at the same time, nope.
is this anything like karlsson gambit if not why is there so many reviewsSay it again after Ep. 9 release, ok?
