OK, all main paths played. Large summary of thoughts incoming.
Let me get the gameplay/minigame bitching out of the way. I hate them. Almost all of them, and yet both disposable income and some renders are locked behind them, so I keep them on. But man, that science minigame is the single worst thing DPC has done. If it presented a challenge or was fun there'd at least be an argument in its favor, but it isn't. It just eats up several minutes being pointless. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Then there's the fish, which actually costs me money to do and isn't even a game by any but the loosest definition. Brawler got more complicated for no particular reason, and there's that puzzle box I refuse to engage with until it's entirely completable (and it better have a damn good reward inside). The math game is a lateral move from the former one... I think it's actually easier in that it makes more logical sense to me than some of the old math questions and has no timer, but I still wouldn't call it fun. The English test got a much less forgiving timer, but at least we can type now so that one I'll call a win. Also Beer Pong, which is great conceptually but not that fun... I'd have preferred something simpler, maybe akin to the tennis minigame.
But yeah... lots of minigames and not lots more fun from them.
The story continues to inch forward, slower than it should but faster than it was last episode. Most of the progression was character stuff, which I'll get to in a bit. Lewd scenes were a bit weak this time around, not bad but pretty uninspired. There are a couple of exceptions
, but mostly it was just... fine.
As for the characters, the meat of the episode and my thoughts on same:
JOSY
MAYA (& PATRICK)
JILL
BELLA
SAGE
QUINN
GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS
BURKE & LUNCHROOM GIRL (I forget her name)
There, the long ass review/thoughts/ramble I said just yesterday I wasn't going to do. If you actually read all this, well, you're awesome. Let the waiting for Episode 11 commence.
P.S.- Almost forgot, the "it's one of us" moment the DiKs had.
