I'm guessing episode 10 will be similar to 7 or 8 with the only difference being that these freeroams will be much bigger. Imagine an 8 episode with three freeroams like a dorm party. We don't really know much about episode 10. To summarize:
1) There will definitely be a Thanksgiving freeroam and it will be outdoors
2) There will be a time skip.
3) There will be final freeroam in a brand new environment. It will either be a freeroam at Neil's house or the rock band concert that Zoey called MC to in ep9.
4) There will be a big focus on branching
5) Canonical scenes that combine scenes with different LI's will probably be few. The game will be more LI-centric.
6) There will be new minigames( updated brawler, chemistry minigame, beer pong).

To summarize, ep10 will probably be the most extensive and content-filled episode. It will have the most renders and animations, and according to DPC the episode will be a big deal even for solo players. This means that branching will essentially become an integral part of the story.

DPC seemed to be talking about one big free roam that would be a Thanksgiving party and a few smaller ones. Judging by his words, I counted 4-5 free roams, which is no different from previous standard episodes, only in Ep. 10 will be a little bigger. Episode 5: Preps party, short after party at Bella's house before bed, in the morning at Bella's house another bigger one. (Total count: 3)
Episode 6: Free roam in the DIKs mansion, in the library, in the DIKs mansion again, MacAllen's bar (total count: 4)
Episode 7: Free roam in your room, in your room again, big HOTs party, at the DIKs mansion (Total count: 4)
Episode 8: Free roam in your room, room again, big Dorm party, DIK mansion (Total count: 4)

As we can see, the number of free roams doesn't change much, but they have become larger due to the growth of the game size in Ep.7. I'm sure that in Ep.10 it will be the same and Ep.9 was an exception, which is suitable as a one-time experiment. The scheme from Ep.7-8 is optimal for me, we get a plot and a party to relax.

I would hope Madame can because she pretty much got nothing else. That's going for lowest hanging fruit

Yea that was my question basically. If we're gonna see the typical ep. 7 playthrough which was quite nice and sustainably fast or the disaster of ep. 9, which I hope was a one time mess eventually easy to forget by later plot progress. I guess we'll see

In my opinion, Ep.9 was good, as I've said many times before, but it's best seen as "good" for new players who haven't waited tediously for a year to see the story unfold. Episode just felt different.
To answer one more of your questions: DPC doesn't do milking, this guy just can't control his overblown inspiration and he is terrible manager. The main problem is long animations, everything is the same as in Ep.9. Almost all of the work is done, except for the animations, which are about 25% incomplete. He's upgraded the hardware to RTX4090 and is building a couple more new rigs, but he's probably using them to increase the amount of cinematics and visuals in them (as many predicted lol )

Even if he makes a few more episodes like Ep9, you'll still play it and you know it.

It's possible, I have negative opinion of the dev from prior actions, which skews everything. Also I am too much of a conclusion-hungry chimp to be giving benefit of the doubt allow me this simple pleasure in life.

Even if he makes a few more episodes like Ep9, you'll still play it and you know it.

Of course. Do as I say, not as I do and all that

the ninth chapter has the same plot content as the previous chapters (very little), the only difference being that normally we had several freeroams (in the DIKs' mansion, in the HOTs' mansion, in the domitorium, in the Preps...) with plot moments between them, in the ninth the different freeroams, all set at the party, seemed to be a single freeroam and the plot parts became flashbacks recalled during the party

but there we are, very little happened in the ninth chapter as very little happened in the chapters before.

Add to this the fact that the party was a huge "click randomly on all the rooms hoping something will happen", as there was very little correlation between the various tasks to be completed.

Unlikely. Why would Vinny want to spy on the DIKs. That does not make sense.

That's interesting so Chad wasn't at the EP5 jocks party. Did Chad, Troy and a bunch of other guys trash DIK Mansion? Why? Chad found out so Dawe blackmailed him because Dawe wanted to be President of the Alphas. The pics of Arieth fucking some DIKs were just a distraction to portray Dawe as a victim. Dawe can only have gotten the pictures from a DIK. From Nick. By leaving Nick Zimmer alone, Chad wanted to cast suspicion on Nick because Nick is the mole who gave Dawe the pictures.

Chad came to the Halloween party for the secret cameras that may have recorded Chad destroying the DIK Mansion. He has to do this or he'll get kicked out of college by Stephen Burke. He wants to destroy evidence.

I am almost 100% sure that you are right about the dude in the mask being Chad. Form seems to fit to Chad's.

Anyone knows if episode 10 is planned to be another long free roam where you find a mojito bottle? or an actual content like prior to ep.9? I couldn't find any recent progress log among the thousands of people people who unsuccessfully argue that Josy is not the best path. Just seeing if I should be on the lookout for release or wait for ep. 11. cheers

You nailed it. Skip the next update, then come back in 2 years.
