Looks like a Chinese copy.
DPC creates magic with lighting, effects and models he creating, and this is.. Probably the most brazen scam in the genre I've ever seen. This guy morphed the model a little bit and made it ugly.

I don't think Josy would cheat on MC, I think she's so thirsty for him that she would cheat on pretty much anyone to be with him.

It's also pretty obvious that her relationship with Maya is tenuous at best, has been for a long time, and isn't gonna last. It's only different on the throuple path because MC's cum is the glue holding them together.
Do you think Josy and Maya's relationship is doomed by default if MC isn't on their route? It would be good for DPC to make an option to help them maintain the relationship.
Outside the throuple their relationship is flimsy. The contrast is shown in EP9 beginning. In throuple they quickly settled the conflict and dispute over the price of the costumes, while without the MC, this dispute dragged on for a week and they continued to argue even upon arrival at the party. All this makes Josy doubt in her choice. Although she tried to move on and said that she no longer wants to cheat and lie. But it also wasn't worked.

Code:
js "Thank you for the shirt."
mc "Don't mention it. It would have been weird to sleep in that dress."
js "And weirder to sleep without it, huh?"
mc "..."
js "..."
js "Maybe I should take the couch?"
mc "I thought you were comfortable?"
js "I am, but you know why... Because of us."
mc "I can take the couch, no problem."
js "I'm not a cheater. I mean, I did it, but I don't want to be that anymore."
mc "I don't want that either."
js "I love Maya..."
js "But I thought these feelings I have for you would fade."
js "Yet, every time I see your face... I..."
mc "Shh..."
js "I still have your sweater, you know?"
mc "Did you bring it here?"
js "It was the first thing I grabbed when I packed my suitcase."
js "I...don't know what I'm saying right now. Tell me to shut up."
if affinity == "DIK":
mc "Ok... Uh... Shut up."
elif True:
mc "I'll never tell you that. I've always liked listening to you talk."
js "Haha..."
js "Good night..."
It will depend on how her potential solo route would open. If it will start from cheating on Maya then it probably will be the path of drama. If she will try to talk to Maya first, then maybe things will be less dramatic. The same for Maya solo path, but... it, probably, will always lead to a significant drama. Because Josy is still have all that feelings at first, and secondly bc of her fear of loneliness.

I don't think that Josy has a high tendency to cheat. She did it before (as well as Maya) because she was sure that her relationship is over. But she can't help herself and supress her feelings and pretend that all is fine. In throuple she doesn't need to pick anyone, bc she can get both people she love. In couple with Maya, with all that fights and arguing and when MC is not near them to help and support it starts to bother her and that's why she doubt in her choice.

As MC we have a choice now. To help their relationship to survive or to stand aside. I will not believe if DPC will not force us to make a cruel choice and betray one of them and MC's own promise which he give to himself and also told to Derek. That he is not the guy, who ruin relationships and that she won't hurt them.

In overall, cheating (or temptation) or whatever else points with Josy means and made this way because of that choice in EP5. It's an unique feature in the game. If player plan to pursue solo Josy or Maya then he'd be better on "others" road. Otherwise this is mental cheating and direct doubt in choice previously made regarding the MG LI.

I was surprised that DPC left the option to tell Josy that MC is think about her a bit or all the time in case, when in EP5 we made a choice where MC doesn't have any feelings for her anymore, or he have feelings for Maya...
This moment with the costume prices is striking, and by the way, this is not the first time that tension has been in their relationship. They fought quite often, which makes you wonder how successful their relationship is and is it workable at all? Girls are too different.

Another point that interests me. Maya's solo path. I chosed "I still have feelings for Maya" option in Ep 5, but I don't remember if that leads to unique moments with Maya like with Josy. And is it even possible, Maya's solo outside of the group? It seems to me that Maya is not as in love with MC as Josy is all the time.

You're too strict. He didn't really mess up much. The difference is not so great
Even on the small phone screen I can see the difference that hurts my eyes.
In addition to the worse visuals, his "Josy" clearly leaned on burgers.

Oh, the dev appeared in that thread and explains his actions:

For the last part... i think DPC just made a mistake here, or doesnt wanted to continue some variables in the code out of Season 1+2... So he gave it in the hands of the players to continue some "choices" of the past or not. So you could choose that you were thinking about Josy all the time, even if you said you dont have feelings for her anymore during episode 5. Its just an "easy" way out to continue some variables and set them again for the new season i guess. Doesnt bother me that much, i always choose what i did before... so the continuation fits.
All viable variables are saved and transferred into Season 3. Hundreds of them. The ones regarding "feelings for Josy" "feelings for Maya" or "no feelings" as well. If you picked Josy or Maya feelings then you will see a couple of renders in EP9 recap. It's impossible to implement w/o appropriate variables, because some of such recap moments is based on your previous choices. To show specific scene/choice in recap you need to refer to something. And the "something" in such case is only a variables.

If you're interested in what exactly is transferred into the Season 3, you may check my early post from late April:
LINK

How will this unfold? There are more than one way to go about it, without breaking her character. But i dont think DPC will make here a lot of branches for the Josy solo route... i think he will just add it like this: If the Mc is not in the throuple Josy and Maya will break up if the MC is not involved or doesnt help them to stay together (and this will happen either in ep 10 or 11, it has to). And after that Josy can/will run into the arms of the MC.

I dont think there will be a Josy solo route if the MC is in the throuple. At least not soon... and the hints during season 1 and 2 where you can "favor" one of the girls are gone now. If the MC is in the throuple, all of them are happy during ep 9. I dont think DPC will change that again soon.
I don't think that anything may break her character. A difficult moral choice is a choice too. Nobody is perfect and ideal. It also involves and brings a juicy drama and makes things more valuable. She have rights to choice something that seems more right and happy to her, even if such choice may become a terrible one.
Regarding options, think about the following. It's just speculations for now, until we don't know clearly what DPC is planned, planning and have in his head for the future eps and plot itself. But, still:

1. What will happen if throuple becomes unbalanced, I think it's pretty clear that it was and will be important in future. Favoring one of the girls would lead to a solo path with one of them OR to a full break up with both of them. Probably it will depend on how it will be interpreted and implemented. But even throuple branch itself may give us 4 different endings. The best - when the throuple survive in full, bittersweet ones when MC is left with one of the girls only and bad when MC left alone. I don't believe DPC will create a variable behaviours for MC with an except of some choices, while full break up may be the result of some of previous major choices and/or cheating, which is implemented after we chose main LI and branching system came into play.

2. Friends with feelings. This would lead to a solo paths with one of girls while not ever being in Throuple. For me it's clear that MC is placed in situation where he need to make a tough moral choice if he decide to go for one of them. He promised to be their friend, to support and help them. But if he will act in such a way, he will help them with their relationship and would probably save their couple and help them avoid the break up. On the other hand... to get the solo path with one of them he need to stay aside and don't help them, waiting for the moment of the lowest point in their relationship and break up. In EP9 we had such an option for the first time. We were not able to choice one of the sides, but to help them both or just stay away from it and let them continue to fight and argue. That's the reason, why I think it will be a very tricky way filled with a lot of drama and consequences. While one of girls would be happy, the other may be totally devastated by double betrayal. This one probably gives us the 2 different endings. Maybe with additional ones, where our MC can reconcile with girl we left alone and become a wingman to her.

3. Potential cheating paths. It would lead to a branch change/swap as well as just destroy choosen branch and left MC alone. That's why MC have an ability to tell Josy that he think about her even if he told Derek that he haven't any feeling for her anymore. For MC it would became a short journey which will destroy his current relationship, the same with Josy.

4. Break up with Throuple. It also couldn't remain intact and will lead to some consequences. In case with Jill & Bella we are able to pick an option that saves a hope in Jill and she would probably fight for MC in such case or probably sabotage his relationship with Bella. We haven't a talk with Josy after the break up, I expect we will have a similar option during convesation with her.
So it also gives us at least 2-3 options here. To tell "something" to Josy (probably Maya too) or to finally cut and end this relationship and stay faithul to picked LI & branch.

MC after the break up:
mc "(Why does this hurt so fucking much?)"
mc "(This can't be a mistake, can it?)"

Iam 100% sure there will be a Josy Solo Path, just everything goes in that direction since the start of the game. She is the main-girl of the game overall, well maybe together with Jill, regarding Love-Story. MC dreamed about her a long time, she was the first "crush" in the game, and if you decide that the MC still has feelings for her, you can clearly see that shes thinking about him too all the time... tears, kisses and whatnot included. Those scenes are not even hints anymore. Its crystal clear heading that way (depending on your choices of course)
I wrote a whole story like a wall of text about points you mentioned with an examples and explanations about 3 weeks ago:
LINK

For Maya... i just cant see a Solo-route with her at all. There were no hints in that direction either so far. It doesnt fit really. Of course DPC can start something in that direction any time... but so far he didnt, and i dont know... i dont see that coming at this point. For a Maya solo route there has to be a foundation, and that is not the case so far.
Some facts.
1. Variables for "feelings for Maya" are still present, and it's reflected in EP9 recap.
2. Maya is introvert. She doesn't show such things and her feelings and emotions so blatantly as Josy do, as well as speak about them. Also, because of life in the family where she comes from, she learned well to wear a protective mask and not show emotions, only occasionally giving vent to feelings, for example when she repeated the words of her father that he once told her "You are not the daughter that I wanted". That's why she looks so calm after fail with Burkes help, but it's only a visual illusion and her facade. For the same reason, she stays with MC for a few words after the breakup with Throuple, while Josy runs away in tears. But it doesn't mean she is ok with that and being hurted less than Josy.
3. Feelings should be mutual, it's why in case if J&M couple would fail, nothing stops Maya to pick MC as her LI. Why you grant Josy with such possibility and option and deny this right to Maya at the same time?
4. In case of J&M couple - do you think, does one of the girls need the other more? Or they are equal? When you'll answer this question to yourself, you'll understand why Maya solo is also possible.

Except Episode 9 heavily lean into the Relationship point system with Josy and Maya. More so, than in any other case before it , if you favor one, the other lose point. So you either gain 1 point with each,and balanced out, or if you favor Josy, she gain 2-3 point, and Maya lose those point.

moreover, back in episode 6 when you help them with their task, there is a Josy or a Maya centric path to it.

Whatever going to happen between Josy and Maya is gonna happen regardless if you part of their relationship or not.
if anything, I see it this way, that from the throuple We could get an ending where, We either end up with them together, or with Joys alone or with Maya alone . Whereas in the others path we might able to Fuck Josy, ( or Maya ) but we won't have an actual endgame with her.
I think you pay way too much attention to "points", you should pay more attention to whats happening during the scenes. In episode 1-7 if you favor one over the other (which you always have to do in someway) the other girls gets a little dissapointed. This ends with episode 8 and clearly is gone in episode 9. In the throuple all are happy now... no matter what the MC decides. And as far as i can see, you dont lose any points for either maya or josy (not gaining some, doesnt mean you lose them), excpet at some decisions you lose points for both of them, but again... dont pay too much attention to just the "points". To say it frankly... the relationship points in being a dik meant shit so far. I cant recall a single relationship where those points influence anything at all. All that matters are the affinity of the MC at the point for some crucial decisions and the main decisions for those relationships... For Josy and Maya there are only 3 (fuck either Josy or get lewd with MAya in episode 3, try something more with them in ep 4, and last choose them at the end of ep 8) decisions in the game you have to make to get together with them, all the other decisions doesnt matter if you are staying chick.

And regardless of your "relationship points" you will get together and stay together with them if you want to in ep 4 and 8 in the end. Heck... you can even have minus points for one of them (its pretty easy to get into minus territory for one of them) and still be together happy in episode 8 and 9. Thats how much those points mean in the game so far... nothing. And i dont think that this will change. Would feel odd too... during epiosde 9 and episode 8 the three of them are clearly on a happy path together. They are so fucking comfortable with each other now that its not even a problem if the MC fucked more than 10 girls along the road or that Josy made out with Sage in front of Maya and so on... But you think at some point it will goes like this:

"omg i dont have enough points with the MC, lets ditch him" this might be the case in many other AVN around here, where everything depends only on some stupid point system. Luckily being a dik is not that heavily depended on "points" in that regard (especially relationship points). And with episode 9 even the chick/dik points are pretty much gone even if you still get them, cause you will have a permanent affinity there anyways, so those doesnt matter anymore. So much for the "pointsystem" in this game. Its pretty much.... pointless now. And i like that... It should matter more what happened and how the characters and relationships "evolve" during the time beeing instead of some ridiculous pointsystem. Those pointsystem are a curse among AVNs around here anyway... and i think DPC sees it just like that, otherwise you could "see" those relationship anywhere in the game, but you cant... they are hidden, and that has a reason. Cause they are not that important.

I for one will pay more attention to the reaction and actions of the characters, and as i can see it, there is no friction anymore between the three of them if you are in the throuple, so yeah, i dont think the throuple will break soon, maybe near the end of the whole game, yeah... but we have to go another 7 episodes until then, and in the next 4 or 5 episodes i dont see why the throuple should be breaking up if i see how close they were in episode 8 and now even closer in episode 9. They might only get "forced" to from others... or something like that. We will see.

To me its a clear "development" of the relationship here during the game... at the beginning there were still unsecurities, even jealousy. And those faded more and more and are gone now. Why should they come back? Cause of a stupid pointsystem? Nah, i would be disapointed very much if those stupid points would rip apart what is to be seen on the screen. If DPC wanted that, he would show it too... like jelousy and such between them, but there is none.

Of course, the comeback of zoey will pretty much stir up every single relationship (if you let that happen) but again... not because of "points" only because of "actions" And there is a huge difference between those.

Well see a post above from me, what i think about those variables or "relationship" points so far... so far they didnt mean anything during the game, not one bit. You can gather and lose them, but they dont have any effect so far. Only some major decisions have an impact. And those decisions can be made regardless of relationship points, only affinity influenced them so far.

And i pay more attention to what is seen on the screen and not in the code. And i think way to many people take a look into the code and those varaibles and are making assumptions out of them. If i look back the whole game, one thing is very clear... the relationships and characters evolve. Maya was introvert, and still is, but she opened up many times now, and trusts the MC and Josy very much, way more than in the beginning. If it wouldnt be the case dont you think DPC would SHOW us? Do you really think at some point DPC will make something like this "oh wait a minute, you dont have enough relationship points gathered here, so... yeah... now everything will fall apart, even if i didnt show that on screen" I cant see an "unablanced" throuple anymore, even if there are "relationship points" for that... what matters more are things seen on screen... at least i hope so...

It would be a huge bummer if at some point DPC decides to pay attention to those points again, regardless of what is be shown by the characters now.

If there will be friction coming up, it will be shown on the screen, and not because of some points gathered "hidden in the code" iam sure of that.

Well, I think the opposite, I think you don't pay enough attention to the RP point. Surely they didn't play a major role yet, but cleary important enough that DPC keep a track of it , in the official Walkthrough. in the long run they gonna matter in one way on or the other.
rp.png
and I'm not saying they are not " Happy " Right now. I say when they get sperperated for whatever reason, what follow up will be determined by the actions you took, which could very well be include the Relations points .

if you favored one girl over the other your connections to that person is deeper. Not to mention that Basically you don't even have to chase both to enter the Three Way relationship in the first place.

and in the episode 9, they started to compare how many time they were with the MC. Beside the Mandatory scene in episode 6, You can go all in focusing on just one of them, dont tell me that this should have no effect at all eventually.

Ok sorry. Iam not that good with "phrasing" in english... not my native language... i try to explain it another way... when i said "dont pay attention to the points" i just meant that they didnt matter in the game so far, not a single time.

If you watch especially episode 8 and 9, and those "decisions" where you can gain or lose points, i cant see ANY reaction of Maya or Josy which will lead to a fall out.

Or let me say it like this... if you wouldnt have the walkthrough or a wouldnt have taken a look "behind the code" is there any sign of friction between the three of them in episode 9? I cant see any. Even if you say the turth during the truth or dare game, that you might ahve fucked more than 10 girls, its forgotten very fast by both of them... And if at one point of the game DPC will pull out those points and make something happen because of them, it would feel really really odd. So far DPC always SHOWED us if something can go south. And not because of points, just because of what was happening on the screen during a playthrough.

Of course, this can happen very fast... but as for now, i dont see the throuple break up soon, and i cant see a solo path for Maya. She didnt act the way that this would be possible, for now.
