I finished the episode two days ago but didn't want to write an analysis in the heat of the moment. Now that I was able to collect my thoughs and truly review this EP without the recency bias, i rate the update a solid 7/10. It was a fun party with a lot of funny interactions, but at the cost of story progression.
I will try to talk about everything that is important for me in this update.
Keep in mind that i only played the Sage chick path, and saw some scenes of the Others path.

You can notice that a lot of my time was spent writing about the characters, because that's what this episode was all about.
The development time really made this update a lot more controversial. If we had gotten it in the usual 6-7 months time, it would probably be a lot more well received.
I wish that the next update will come sooner than 9 months, but with all the increase in the cosmetic cutscenes, I am not that hopeful anymore.
thanks for writing out your thoughts (y) (y)

Others will most likely be Nora, Quinn, Lily, Rio and Jade, but not all will get a happy ending.

Zoey will most likely be a special case in that she'll be available in all routes. One theme with DPC is that the Ex always has a chance to get back with the MC.
You're right to some extent, i'd forgotten Nora and Jade. But Camila is nearly as well developed as Rio and Lily and Nicole have had similar amounts of screen time. I agree I think the others will generally have the elast well developed endings. You're also right that Zoey will play a part in all of the paths.

I think DPC should look up to the bully game, it would give him some fun ideas for the story.
start some chaos and serious fights between cliques it would be fun.

Hey Guyz,

I am struggling to import the S2 save which i made in the end , even after saving it multiple times the saves are not visible in the import menu in S3.

Can someone please help ?
When starting season 3 chose the option to import, then pick the save you want to play, now the game should be starting, after that you should be able to save again into the s3 saves and load from there.... (the to be imported saves should be in the season 1/2 saves map, and actually be endgame saves! any saves from ep 7 or halfway 8 etc can't be used for import to s3)

This episode was amazing. It's true that it felt a bit short, but that's only because it focused on just one big event in one location. The narrative was actually pretty clever. We begin already at the party and start going back to what happened after ep. 8 (Burkes visit, Zoey, party planning). The 'Others' path really expanded in this release which I enjoyed as a mainly DIK player. I like that the major sex scenes were mutually exclusive. It made them feel more impactful. I actually disliked how in the previous episodes MC could fuck almost all the girls at parties without any major consequences (like in HOT mansion party or preps party). Glad DPC changed that in the new episode.

Also, I really loved the Halloween party. It was fleshed out so much, with so many details. All those costumes made it stand out from others. Also, unlike all the previous parties, we got to see several stages (planning, beginning, various activities, late phase and after). Thanks to this, it felt realistic.

First of all, you need to unzip archive with "The Unarchiver", not default Mac unarchiver tool. It breaks things. Secondly, first attempts you need to run by right-mouse click - open
Thanks for posting this reply to previous thread. I also downloaded and unzipped, using the Unarchiver, opening in the manner you suggested. Unfortunately, the VN will still not open. Thanks again for your suggestion, it is appreciate.

Looking for help. I tried to do a search for this but didn't really come up with an answer. If I play the game from the beginning with SanchMod, will it make interlude and then episode 9 unplayable or will sanchomod work with them?
