She is a narcissistic psychopath, there is just no way around that. Not of the caliber of a serial killer but at the very least of the caliber as a criminal. She exploits and toys with people. She doesn't really acknowledges danger. She never reflects on her actions. She always blames others for misshapes and mistakes even if they're clearly hers.

Just take the costume competition at the end of ep. 9. None of her possible picks are about awarding the best costume or rewarding someone for his or her efforts or making someone happy. They are all about mocking, insulting and outright demeaning someone.

There is this small moment of regret and reflection on the roof for the very first time at the end of ep. 9, that could be a hint of a possible "redemption arc"f for her, we will see.

Quinn is not a narcissistic psychopath, rather an egomaniac. Criminal is also still too much. Petty criminal fits better.

But otherwise you are right.

An egomaniac is pathologically a narcissistic psychopath.

No, an egomaniac is the precursor to a narcissistic psychopath.

Now I understand why you like Quinns so much. If what you wrote is all true, then you are even worse than Quinn, even if you didn't wield the knife. You are complicit in someone's death. It doesn't matter if the dead man was a pig and a murderer. You had the opportunity to prevent this murder, in which you could have informed the police about the whereabouts of the guy.

The participants who are still alive are not law-abiding citizens because certain acts never have a statute of limitations.

I used to think Quinn was a psychopath, but with the latest episodes she's more clearly a BPD. For good or bad.

I'll just say one simple thing. Many condemn Quinn, and say - Oh, she's so bad. Well, OK, there are bad people. And there are many of them. There are many of us. We are bad people. The world does not belong only to good people. We are bad people, narcissistic psychopaths, scammers, thieves, drug dealers, pimps, manipulators, racketeers, blackmailers. We all - Yes, we exist. The lives of bad people matter !

Corrected your post!
Are you sure you're talking about Quinn?
Click to expand...
Yeah. The first point is shown on her not wanting to have cloes ties to anyone. She doesn't want anyone to get close to her so they won't abandon her. Point three is the abuse of sustances AND unsafe sex. Everyone does it in this game, but it still applies to her. Point two is true, she's idealised the MC, but she hasn't shown any signs of devaluation yet. The rest are a collection of maybe and no/not yet. I agree I shouldn't have said clearly in my first post, but it's hinted that we'll know more about her backstory (which seems pretty dark) in future episodes so we can rule more options out or not.

A couple of those points can perhaps be interpreted differently. As I interpreted the unsafe sex criteria solely on the basis of her being on the pill. But your point still resonated as the pill won't protect against STDs. So I can concede to that one as well.

Either way, Quinn's acts are calculated and intentional.
Knowing this, sort of invalidates the majority of those points.

I'm considering a lot of her actions about the restaurant as impulsive because they are reckless. Also the whole cumpetition, tasing the MC and fucking him later on. But maybe they are calculated and she's just bad at math?

Does that mean I should pencil you in for a session or ten?

***EDIT***
But seriously, it doesn't take a genius to figure out Quinn doesn't suffer from Bipolar Disorder.

I meant Borderline, not Bipolar. She's Bisexual, not Bipolar :KEK:

Alright, I hope this should be a more easily digestible version of the "Mansion Restoration Minigame"-guide I posted before.

It is neither the optimal nor by any means the only way to finish the restoration, but it is a way to get the job done in 7 of the 9 available turns, for people that don't feel like calculating it themselves or worrying about potentially spending the XP "incorrectly".
You'll be able to keep the VIP pass and still finish restoring all rooms and buy the windows at the very end of episode 7. In Episode 8 you can simply use any additional turns to send everyone to work and collect as much extra cash as possible, but since it is random which jobs are offered to you, that will not be part of this guide. Just try and get as many people as possible into $$$ jobs (or $$$$ jobs if you happen to see any and someone happens to have the right stats for them).

Many thanks to ename144 and Hurensohn Heigl for also being interested in the math and possibilities for optimization for this minigame and the food for thought and constructive criticism they gave as well as their more in-depth methods of calculating what to ideally do each turn.
In case you are interested, here are links to both Hurensohn Heigls initial analysis and his follow-up/final evaluation as well ename144s tracker. Both of their sheets would be vastly superior to my guide if you don't want to just follow a random persons steps but actually calculate all the turns and make your own choices ahead of time.
Also thanks to any and all users that pointed out errors and/or typos in the previous version of the sheet.

Haha Quinn is actually my fourth favourite girl
For me it's
1 - Maya
2 - Josy
3 - Rionna
4 - Quinn
So yeah, While Maya is always going to be my favourite those other girls are pretty cool as well
That said Quinn upset Maya so she can eat a bag of dicks.

Fuck, this is such a bad timing for me to run out of reactions.
I just can't believe Joshy92 said that, it must have been KARAMBA who cast the "WOLOLO" spell on him and converted the poor guy. :KEK:

I dont think Quinn is nearly as bad as people are saying she is

Because she's not; maybe she's kinda mean and a bully in some cases, and let's not forget the drugs and pimp business she's into and the Mona case; but the way she treats MC when they are alone and her background shows a different kind of character.
She's, I dunno, a Sopranos-like character; she's a "bad guy" or a "villain" but stay human at the end of the day, and to some(Me) she's just playing the cards the world gave her. Therefore, best AVN character ever written.

Besides, a "Bad" or "Evil" character would deffinitely be Stephen and Jade. One guy is using his status to have sex with students in exchange of scholarship; and the other one is cheating on her husband out of spite because she knows he doesn't feel sexual atraction for her, add to that that she probably knows what is he doing with the students and she still have her mouth shut. Besides she is having sex with his son's "rival" and didn't get the break-up that well...
