Granted, the characters in the game do some pretty boneheaded, inconsistent stuff. But the thing to remember is THEY’RE KIDS. They’re between the ages of 18 and 22. Every minor difficulty is blown up, in their minds, into an end-of-the-world, my-life-is-over crisis. They don’t know shit about how to navigate adult relationships yet.
If they were 30-year-olds in a bank or law firm or tech company, I’d textually bitch-slap every one of them for their regrettable drunken/stoned choices, but they’re college kids. So I cut them, and DPC, some slack. Kids do dumb shit all the time.
(Okay, Bella’s in her 30s, but she’s the only one demonstrating any level of maturity, tempered of course by her horniness. And Dawe might be in his 30s, but he’s functionally retarded—gotta cut him some slack too.)
