Whats wrong with him wanting to have full control over development of HIS game? He is very upfront with how he develops, and communicates on an unprecedented level with his audience (in terms of AVN's, anyway). His words exactly are " I'd rather quit than hire someone. And I'm not quitting. It's a lot of work but I love doing it and I want it to be 100% me". It is pretty clear that this project is personal for him, and him not wanting any outside help is understandable on his part, and the transparency is appreciated. Does it suck having to wait half a year+ for an update? Of course, but I cant be mad at DPC for wanting make the game his way; especially when the updates are always quality unlike some other games. Anyone who says he is being greedy or dragging development out is sus.
You said it all. Also it's not like he's throwing in random "holiday episodes" while everyone's going like "Just work on the main game!" Even the Interlude had its purpose (whether it was good or whether it was necessary is a point of contention but I'm just saying he had a specific reason for it other than dragging shit out)
Plus I mean there are some games that are starting to pop up that look like they're trying to bring it to that level lately so it's been interesting watching how overall quality of other games have been improving as BADIK has become basically the most popular, ongoing VN.

I'm not even sure that the game will be released in November. He tried to make it by October, but in the end he understand that he wouldn't have time and decided to just add another thousand renders. The game is really almost finished, he just adds nuances/details and a few extra scenes for the characters. He will probably even have writing the script and code for these scenes. But that's not the most important thing. It looks like we will finally come to terms with the release schedule of one episode once a year. And there are two ways out:
1) a mini-episode and a large episode
2) the division of a large episode (6-8 thousand renders) into two parts. But here you need to understand at what stage the division of the episode will take place. The long development of the episode has its negative consequences for the psyche.
Well I mean ... two half episodes a year that each have about 3 to 4 thousand renders could just essentially be considered two normal episodes, right? I'll take option 2! :cool:

Is there the latest version of the game for android? I can't find it, although there is a link on the main page (when clicking on the link it says: oh, we encountered some problems) I've played two seasons, I really like the game.

It's all just speculation. There two most popular points are that it appears Jill does now live in the house that Lynette once lived in, and Lynette's two friends bear a striking resemblance to Jill's current friends.
The same house could easily be just asset reuse for what's a one-time shot, though. You can see it in other places, like e.g. the exact same nightstand --drawer content and items atop and all-- appearing in multiple dorms and the PC's own room at the start of the game.

How do I stay on the neutral path? do I need to have a balance in crucial choices?
Basically, yes. Easiest way to do it is to alternate between DIK/CHICK choices, but there's some leeway and you can make few choices with the same affinity in the row, as long as you correct it with choices going the other way, eventually.

Anyone know how many episodes/seasons are left in total? Like is there roadmap to the end?
Guesstimate is 2 more seasons, 4 episodes each. Given the recently released interlude, and the way the seasons were arranged so far.

Caleb will probably be a 'miniboss' or something like that, a big monster who will certainly do something stupid. In a twist of event, could see Chad helping the MC vs Caleb and the Alphas (except Anthony), possibly because they did something to Sage.

But that's just speculation.

I agree. Although there is the fact that near the end of the final chapter after showing the picture of Lynette and her friends with the house in the background the next image we see is the photo MC takes of Jill with the house in the background. It feels very deliberate. Assuming of course the player went on the picnic date, I mean why wouldn't they?

If you want to stay neutral, just basically don't fight at all but do all the fun stuff (take Quinn's offer, smoke on the roof, take the fake, etc.). That will keep you good for pretty much the first 4 or 5 episodes.

After that, I remember getting the Alphas to leave the party (DIK move) and volunteering for the elderly home (Chick move).

Can't remember what the choices were after that, think I was already in ep 8 by then. At that point I can't remember anything being all that important enough (other than Jill's thing) to care about staying at a certain affinity and it was pretty easy to manage to stay within that "Neutral" margin since there were only a 2 or 3 choices left.

BUT just because there wasn't anything else to worry about in terms of affinity for ep 8, doesn't mean that it won't mess things up in future episodes if you want to stay Neutral for some specific reason so probably just just try plan it out for those last few choices to make sure you stay Neutral.
