I don't hate Maya but damn do I understand why some people are annoyed about her story drama. I only see this story ending when Josy can not take Maya shit anymore. I can see Josy being the one to leave to the relationship; around ep. 1-3 Maya even admitted that were close to breaking up. Also, didn't help when Josy choose to stay with the HOTs, Josy can't sacrifice everything for her. The fact she have these feeling for MC no matter tells me, it's a matter of time before she ends it.
In terms of the friend path, yes, I can see Josy being the one who breaks it because she can't let go of her infatuation with the MC and this is what will likely create tension.
Maya likes the MC too, perhaps to varying degrees depending on how much you do with her, but she is somewhat more trained in repressing herself because of her upbringing and so she doesn't let it show and instead chooses to focus on keeping her relationship with Josy going.
They both love each other but have a serious issue in terms of communication, not really letting the other know how they feel, and they're also terrified of being alone and of hurting the other, so it would take a lot for either to stray, but it likely is coming for both of them and it will depend on who you said you had feelings for in Ep 5.
Even in the threesome relationship, yes you can choose one over the other a.k.a semi solo path.
That probably, and hopefully, will backfire on players who do that because aside from breaking the throuple, it may also result in losing both girls when they realise that monopolising the MC as they have broke the other girl and so they can't be with the MC either.
Playing those routes make it clear to me that there will be a break up depending on MC it can three ways:
1.Maya & Josy stay together with him if we choose to spend time with them equaling and never pit them against each other.
2.They force the him to choose between them by us pitting them against each other.
3. The game chooses for you based on who you agreed with and spend the most time with.
Either way, I'm not ready for the backlash that will come from in the future; I can see some people here & on reddit acting like whining bitches about it.
1) This is probably the best both for all involved and the one that will be the most satisfying in the end, but may require some micromanagement of choices and RP.
2) I don't see that one happening because it doesn't seem to be in either of their natures.
3) Possibly, but like I said before, choosing one more than the other all the time could backfrire completely resulting in no girls.
Personally, I think there are 4 paths for M&J:
1) Throuple ending
2) Throuple breakup in Ep 9 potentially leading you back to one or both at some point
3) Throuple but you favour one girl too much resulting in breakup with both girls
4) Friend path where solo routes will be available.
