A little more about the Interlude. There is a lot of drama in the comments with her, people are waging war in the thread, but here is an interesting point that many agree with. She brought a lot of good soundtrack.
And after the Friday Prophets drama, one of the songs could replace the main theme. This one is very good and integrates into the game's narrative:

She's just the lesbian quota the same way the other guy (I don't even remember the name) is the gay quota. Because it's 2022 and if you create four new characters, at least two of them must be gay even if that doesn't add shit to the story of those characters, to demonstrate you are not an homophobe and don't risk that your product falls into cancel culture. Or just DPC following the mainstream, I don't know.
Oh, really JAL? You are not sure?
You are not sure if DPC is following a lesbian quota? In an indie porn game... a quota... couse cancel culture... in a porn game.

So since your first option is unrealistic let's see the second one. "He is following the mainstream." You see? It's not that he thinks different than you, its that he follows social pressure. Never ever presume that people honestely thinks different than you, always asume the worst case scenario. You were the guy saying that people should deal with the fact that people think diferent?

Well, you should.

Sure. Every mother in the world wants that when she's in mourning for the passing of her own mother, her daughter of 18 leaves home alone to go to live to other city without even finishing her education, to pursue her dream of being a surfer :FacePalm:
It is entirely plausible for a mother when she's in mourning for the passing of her own mother, to tell her adult child, "Don't worry about me honey, i'll be fine, i have my husband and friends to take care of me. Go to San Diego to try to make your dream reality if you want to, that was my mom's wish and last will, after all."

People are crying that the returning ex is a cliché. I pointed out many other clichés in the game that work, hence being a cliché is not a problem in its own right. It's how it's implemented that matters, and none of us know how it's implemented since none of us has played episode 9 yet.
The problem with Zoey isn't that she's a cliche, it's the timing of the cliche.

If Zoey had returned before the crossroad she would have advanced the story. Her return would be a natural explanation for why the MC felt it was finally time to choose in the first place. Moreover the players would have a chance to get to know her and thus properly weigh her in their ultimate decision, the way the MC should have.

By returning after the crossroads Zoey instead resets the story. She either kills time forcing us to reaffirm the same decision all over again or she pulls down the curtain and shows that the crossroad was a fake all along. The game swore up and down the MC was ready to make a commitment, that his decision was going to be important - to the point DPC named the episode after it. I'm not going to rethink that decision before I've even had a chance to see what's behind the door I picked. If the MC does the waffling for me, then the whole second season was a waste of time because the MC hasn't learned a damn thing and my choices are window dressing.

The only way Zoey can fit into the narrative gracefully is if she's a purely optional love interest, someone who will conform to whatever role we assign her. But that doesn't fit with her needing her own Interlude, and it sure doesn't fit with DPC's pathological need to maximize short term drama at all times. So you'll forgive me if I need to see solid proof Zoey isn't just here to pad the game out an extra season before I welcome her back with open arms.

As far as Zoey being a horrible person, I don't agree. She made a dumb mistake leaving for San Diego the way she did, but she's teenager in a coming of age story: missteps are par for the course. Zoey's got miles to go before her decision making is as bad as Jill's. :rolleyes: I do wish the Interlude had made it clear she'd started to learn from that mistake (rather than coming home only after she ran out of money), because that would save us time establishing her growth later on in Season 3. But that's a problem with DPC's writing in the Interlude, not Zoey herself.

afyer 3 years i care more about ethan and nat marriage in a couple duet of love and lust than the entire cast of being a dik. this game jumped the shark hard IMO
Then why are you here, page after page and day after day, trolling people?

Is it just me, or suddenly in the last several weeks suddenly have all these haters have come out of the woodwork and started complaining and bashing on the game? There are so many shows, books, movies and games I'm not a fan of, yet I have never wasted even a second arguing with their fans. At most, I leave a review someplace stating my opinion and I move on. Life is way too short to spend clashing online with a bunch of other anonymous dudes over something so utterly inconsequential and frivolous (it's a PORN GAME).

This thread used to be a fun place where fans could come, crack jokes, and teasingly debate each other about the game and where we thought the story might go, etc. Sometimes it would get a bit heated, but ultimately everyone felt some camaraderie because we were all fans. Now it's just this cesspool for incels with nothing better to do than whine about how long it's taking DPC to crank out another installment of a game they claim to despise and how they won't tolerate being milked, even though they are pirating the game.

Sorry if I've offended any of the many good guys here with this rant, but I've just had it. I'll be having my discussions about BaDIK elsewhere from now on.

Her mum was sad and happy for her. Like all parents when their children leave home. A parent who doesn't want a child to leave would be narcissistic.
It is entirely plausible for a mother when she's in mourning for the passing of her own mother, to tell her adult child, "Don't worry about me honey, i'll be fine, i have my husband and friends to take care of me. Go to San Diego to try to make your dream reality if you want to, that was my mom's wish and last will, after all."
the problem with dogmatic discussions is that we end up supporting anything

to me it seems very implausible that Zoey's mother is happy with her daughter's decision, does she let her leave? of course, besides, how can she stop her?

but hardly any prudent parent is untroubled by the thought that her daughter, with obvious behavioral problems, decides to drop out of school in her senior year (a decision Zoey herself will actually regret by later obtaining an online degree that does not allow her to be accepted where she would like, but fortunately the BR requirements are very but very low), decides to go off on her own without any concrete plan, and with in addition an amount of money at her disposal that she never had

whether Zoey's mother is happy with her daughter's decisions or hates her or is a Spartan

not gonna lie, the last two Jill renders are pretty meh IMO. i consistently see better Jill renders in the fan art section these days. idk if these are rushed by DPC, or if he just doesnt care as much or it testing out new stuff or whatever; but ive been unimpressed with the last two Jill pictures.

more power to you if you think its great (y)

There is a better idea than leaving this thread. Look, Riona is also sad because she sees messages from whiners, incels, trolls and haters. She's look unhappy:

But there is a good solution to this problem:

And that's it, you can no longer see their messages, reactions and answers. We can communicate again, forgetting about them. They deliberately draw attention to themselves and hunt for reactions, so this is the best solution.
Riona did just that and look how happy and satisfied she looks now! :):
