Yeah, I have the feeling that DPC is going to make Sage at some point care a lot about the guy that fooled her for at least two years an treated her like shit, because he's a gay character and it's 2023, so gay characters can't be negative ones, even if they behave as assholes during all the story. And the same goes for MC. When he says Sage that Chad is gay, he seems more worried about poor Chad (the guy that assaulted him) and Troy (the guy that treated him like shit when they were roommates) that about Sage's feelings...
That scene makes me mad every time I play it. I suppose that at some point, he's going to start caring a lot about Troy and Chad, the same way he cares a lot about the two lesbians that made a fool of him the first chapters...
Well, Sage wanted to get a free tuition for Maya, mostly because Maya is gay and appressed by "heteropatriarchy", and Sage wanted to play the woke savior or something
. The same girl that the previous month wasn't worried at all about getting MC into huge troubles with dangerous guys as Chad and the alphas, for her personal interests, even using blackmail for that, suddenly is a saint and wants to help Maya at any cost... And apparently, the though of leaving someone else without that tuition, someone that really needs it because comes from a poor family, and not just because isn't able to confront his/her parents (free tuitions are not infinite, if you give one to Maya, you are leaving another person without it) is fair in DPC's value scale since Sage is OK with that and thinks that she's doing something fair... Why not doing something similar for Chad later in the game?
Seriously, I love Sage's character, but I have to make a blind eyes with too many things about her. The most I play this game, the most I like Quinn. At least, there is no BS with her. She comes from the shittiest of the shittiest families, and she is going to do whatever it takes to succeed in life. I can respect that.
