again the way DPC wrote the story, for Maya to get a job would be completely pointless, and it would also be pointless for her to drop out of college

without a minimum loan no one can pay for college with a part time job, let alone pay for both college and the loan her father controls

it is poorly written, but for now this is. Maya getting a job would solve the loan problem in the same way that electric cars solve the global warming problem
DPTs should write in the script that the cost of studying in college is very high and no part-time job can cover it. It would at least add more logic.

DPC dragging out the loan issue since then has succeeded in the not easy feat of turning trouple fans into more Maya haters

fine strategist
While I agree with you 100, I think Maya was doomed from the start. Tied to Josy, who is more popular, at least from what we can read here on F95.

So all those that don't want 2 chicks yapping their ears off are automatically on the Maya-Hate-Train, cuz the bitch is stopping them from canodeling Josy and having her all alone for themselves.

Poor.....poor Maya.

Why would people hate Sage for that? Chad is a little pussy boy who couldn't take care of his girl because he'd rather suck dick. Fuck him.
Probably in their mind a girl shouldn't cheat on a guy while she's in a relationship. That's funny to hear considering Josy and Maya cheated on each other as well as MC himself.
Perhaps their life experiences also influence their perception of the character.
I would very much disagree with the sentiment that both didn't get any development after ep. 7. I think the love triangle is still the most interesting and dynamic relationship in the game, especially because it already shows some inherent cracks and problems ahead.

The other main paths are basically finished now. The Bella path will likely see some trials and tribulations that mostly come form the outside due to it being a teacher-student relationship and maybe due to the age difference, making it the 2nd most interesting relationship. But the Jill and Sage paths are basically done as far as we can see. The only foreseeable interesting developments can come from the outside, like Jill's parents objecting the relationship. And with Sage I can't see any problem whatsoever (at least as long as the MC didn't had an affair with her mom).

So having the tuition problem move into the background and focusing on the problems any love triangle can produce could very much lead to the most interesting story bits of the rest of the game (if done well obviously) and make the J&M path - at least in my opinion - the most intriguing one of the main paths.
Since the beginning of ep6, they've been acting like a troupe and the relationship is pretty much the same. In episode 7, Patrick's conflict arose, which led to an unofficial rivalry situation, but otherwise everything calmed down.
My main complaint with this route is how sluggish they are in reacting to the fact that MC may have a relationship on the side. We only get a couple comments and that's where their response ends. They are just waiting to see what decision he makes and this is implemented poorly in my opinion. Jill dumps MC when he ignores her at the picnic, Bella when she finds out he had fun with Cathy, Sage basically never saw him as a boyfriend,as a boyfriend, just as a dude she just fucked.

I'm talking about the conditions the paths are now in if you followed them.

I was always under the impression that Maya's skin is the result of being too detailed :unsure:
Pretty much. The normal map used to give skin 3d appearance is way overdone and tbh i have no idea why DPC didn't just crank it down a small bit, which would eliminate the problem. I can only presume the software he uses doesn't have such control.

The story does revolve around the MC, and all the LIs are designed to have no other interests. Jill thinks every other guy is only interested in her social status, Bella is still hung up on her absent husband, Sage is still hung up on her closeted boyfriend, and Maya and Josy have each other.

IRL most available girls are either looking for a boyfriend and monogamy, or they’re like Arieth (minus the cucking) or Riona (minus the whoring)—they just want to fuck hot guys.

When the throuple is formed it's explicitly stated that there's no strings attached because none of them really knows what they're getting themselves into. So there's nothing to react if MC may have a relationship on the side, it's what they've potentially agreed to.

It's only after the last episode when MC declares he'd want to make it an actual relationship, that things become different and if MC fucks around now, it's a different story.

Well we didn’t know at first she was tied to Josy; as soon as she confessed her “boyfriend” was fictional, we thought she was single. And available. And getting hazed by the HOT scavenger hunt way out of her comfort zone—but fucking the MC would solve that, right?

Yes, the tuition plotline is annoying, especially when you’re an American who’s dealt with federal student loans and know they work nothing like this story. Nobody cosigns for them. Once approved they go directly to the college. Parents never touch them, and that’s by design—in the past, parents committed fraud that way, so now they’re largely fraud-proof. None of Maya’s loan money would have passed through her dad’s hands. He controls nothing. He’s bluffing.

Unless he took out a different loan—in which case Maya’s solution is ridiculously simple: reject her dad’s money and all the strings attached to it, and get a federal student loan.

Jill’s lawyer will either tell Maya all this in a future episode… or we’re gonna discover B&R is actually in Donutistan, where the laws are entirely different but fathers still can’t date their daughters. (Yeah, I know, whole different game. Still.)

I think I speak for everyone when I say, this is exactly what WE like
Not a damn thing! Look at Jade or Nicole, and now Maya with this preview and you’ll see two beautiful MILF and an old grandmother who went to a bad plastic surgery and a haircut and a tanning salon. )))

Wasn't she like the most popular LI in the beginning (1-2 ep.)? It's the tuition story that did her dirty with its logic flaws. Which turned her into a scapegoat. And now people just can't stop. They chose the target and have the urge to keep bullying (correct me if I'm wrong).

From relationship development point of view Maya takes the second place after Bella, imho.
In fact, dude think you’re wrong. )) If she’s being bullied, then people care about her. )) But if everyone didn’t care about her, if she wasn’t even mentioned, then, yes, she wouldn’t be popular. And now, it is quite popular, people do not care, people want improvements. )) But her, why - that turned into an old grandmother. )))
