the most impossible relationships (in the sense of happy endings) on BADIK:

Jade: the ultimate toxic relationship
Quinn: easy twist and still not necessarily at BR at the last chapter (not necessarily for us either to be honest)
Riona: if Quinn is the easy choice, Riona is the perfect curveball, maximum effect and minimum impact on the story
Bella: obstacles and negative omens non-stop (the only one for whom even winning the costume contest could cause a problem)
Maya solo: there's really no sign of this relationship playing out, no winking (unlike Josy)
And the healthiest one is either with Jill or with Sage. As long as Tremolo not going to complicating shit with his love life. But, i think he should have clear answer for it in ep 8.

While at it, i think, this is the best, if not the best, shot of Sage. Damn, she's so freaking beautiful. And the composition of the shot too. The wall in her back, complementing her hair, and the slight tint of her lipstick, while the green complementing her eyes, deeply looking at Tremolo. Totally second best girl overall for a reason. Ps: Best girl, in terms of route and gameplay.

With Zoey getting her own story and brought into the fold in Ep 9. It is clear she is somewhere between MC and LI on the scale of things. Quite simply put, as of the moment, none of the other LIs have had as much depth, story wise, gifted to them - Outside of monologues provided by the character. We are well over the 50% mark of the game's story now... so, I doubt many of the other LIs will be given such a thing. So it will be quite easy to say that Zoey is one of the canonical LI story endings. Just have to see how the next couple of episodes play out.
canonical no, because it only takes a choice on our part to put her, perhaps definitively, at the door. it's enough to decide that MC hasn't forgiven her for running away and their relationship seems to fade a lot.

but she is certainly the girl with whom regardless of our choices MC reaches a major emotional involvement

Probably one of the only shots where she doesn't look like an undead amazonian, too.

Sage does not have all of Bella's negative omens, but every single danger that lurks at the BR also affects her.

with Jade is MC's responsibility in the case, but the shady games of her best friend Quinn and her adoptive father Burke will surely have an effect on her as well.

so I don't feel like saying Sage is the healthiest choice

the title belongs much more to Josy and Jill (who also have weaknesses, by the way)

Well, i think as long as you're not fooling around with Jade. You'll be fine with Sage.

Quinn? She's could be a danger to everyone, no?

And that's left us with her dad. I think it's fair to say that Burke cares about Sage to some degree. So i don't think he's going to be a problem with her. And i'd like to think since Sage kinda hates to be associated with Burkes, so if things do go south, it's not really hard for her to get rid of Burkes. She grateful of 'em, but she's ready to be independent. Also, after knowing everything her step-dad did with some of HOTs, maybe Sage will ended up hating him in the end anyway.

Yeah, i think that's the problem with every single girls in this game. How they could look stunning in one shots, and also looking atrocious in the next one. Jill, is no exception, there's some shots where her face really freakin' stunning (that infamous Banana shots for example, and i'm not joking. I think she's look good in that shots). But she can have weird faces in other shots.

The problem I have with Jill is that she is portrayed as this naive innocent Aphrodite trope character - But has the lips of a seasoned pornstar. Which one is it? aha

She's not totally naive. She's totally have that devil in disguise side in her, i mean look at her sister (R.I.P). It's up to Tremolo to guide the devil out. Just like osculim said. If you want the best of Jill route, don't go full CHICK. Go Neutral, beat the shit out of Tyballs, destroy his presentation with your dick, smack him with tennis balls, etc. Even when Bella said, Jill's like a saint that hates bullying, even to someone that truly deserved it. At some point, she'll find your DIK shenanigans amusing.

I just completed a couple of playthroughs and I was struck by how Sarah's renders are the ones that look most like a photo of an actual girl to me, closely followed by Josy's. The rest of them are still nestled somewhere in the uncanny valley, though they are significantly better than almost all other AVNs with far less complexity and content choices. For instance I love Bella as a character but damn she looks like a cartoon most of the time.

Talking about faces, somebody knows if most BaDIK models are just modified versions of some game engine generic models or some specific 3d pack developer bought? Or maybe is just that other games copy BaDIK models?

I think I have seen exactly the same model than Derek in several games, the same with Anthony model and several modified and worse looking versions (but stiil way too close) of Riona, Sage or Bella among many others.

Don't quote me on it, but I think they're DAZ studio store models.
Not %100 sure. Someone who's more familiar with DAZ store assets could probably confirm this.

After more playthroughs than I care to count or admit to, I can't believe this is the first time I pick the option to mess around with the dentures at the old folks home.

One other funny thing about these visits is Tommy's teasing of Derek when they go to the old age home if Derek slept with the elderly teacher. Loved that.

but that's not the point. at the end of the story Sage risks finding herself with her adoptive family completely destroyed, a stepfather in jail and all over the papers.

and a very similar fate could befall her sorority, involved in the drug and restaurant scandal, for the drugs we don't know, but for the restaurant a large group of the sorority is involved.

the level of drama that will touch Sage is very high, higher than for the other LIs (excluding Bella we have no idea what she will have to face and us with her)
