I'm not saying that Bella is using the MC as a 'rebound guy' on purpose. What I'm saying is that Bella clearly saw in MC a 'shelter' capable of protecting her from the storm that caused her so much distress (James' death).Yep
Well, first, you're playing the game of a dude who's allergic to LIs having any kind of sexual or romantic interactions with other men.
Second, she's not even a side girl, she's a main love interest of the game, it'd be surprising if DPC doesn't allow players to achieve some kind of good ending with her, even in AL you could end up with pretty much any girl you wanted.
Third, does Bella really look like the kind of woman who uses someone as a rebound guy?
She's already admitted to having feelings for MC, the woman you see in EP1 is night and day compared to the one you see in EP10, at the rate she seems to be falling for MC, even if James turns out to be alive, by the time he comes back it might be too late, who knows.
And finally, even if everything somehow turns to shit by the time the game ends, she said it best, just enjoy the ride

I'm not playing with minigames on this path and I always did tell her that I would have come anyway. Still no scene.1. Make sure that Rusty doesn't sell his car by winning the Mansion restoration minigame
2. During the date with Quinn in Ep 10 tell her that you'd still come with her even if you knew you'd be used as a bodyguard
3. ???
4. Profit!!1
Let's take it step by step. First, thanks for "respecting" my opinion. However, the respect you've shown me basically boils down to not outright insulting me or explicitly saying my opinion was crap. But apart from writing arrogantly and like a DrPinkCake fanboy, you've essentially labeled me as ignorant. To top it off, you've questioned whether I've played the previous episodes. Allow me to laugh.I try to figure out if you even played the episodes before, cause it doesnt look like it. Cause everything what bothers you is the whole game since episode 1.
There are many post like this (well, way shorter) where some guys complain about this and that and that the game is changing for the worse... like, why the free roams or minigames... well, they are there since day one? Why is it a problem now? EP9 was made in one huge free roam, but it was the exception... episode 10 got back to how it was before, like 2-3 free roams, 1 a little bigger than the rest, nothing new here, it was the same in every episode before too.
The main aspect of the game was NEVER a dating sim, why do you think that? Its a soap opera in college setting first of all. Never was something else. The porn is just an "extra" not the main thing, and the dating? There are way to many girls involved to focus only on that if the mainpart is the drama of the "soap opera" and that was the case since day 1 too. So its impossible to put more than 2-3 scenes for each girl in a episode, and this was always the case too... no episode focuses "only" on the dating or a specific girl. Most girls got 2 scenes per episode, sometimes 3, including 1 lewd scene, maybe a second one... that was never different. (well, besides episode 1 i guess, cause it was the introduction)
The "dating" went on too long anyways... the decision in episode 8 should have been made at the end of ep 6 or maybe 7. It was never intented to be a harem game, it was never intended that MC will end up with multiple girls (excpet the throuple with J&M of course) its the average F95 user that thinks that way. "harem here, harem there, why is there no incest? And i dont care for story, i wanna bang every girl" Thats not being a dik.
And that the update was short... are you for real? Its in fact the longest episode of the game so far. The numbers of the dialoge lines alone show that. Of course, if you play only one route... thats another deal, than its ep 9 cause there are only a few differences between the routes. If you play one route alone, you kinda only see 25% of the whole game including episode 10. But thats again... the case since day 1. You want the whole experience with 20 hours per episode? Well... you need to play different playthroughs... otherswise its 3-5 hours per episode, which btw is by far the longest playtime any DEV around here puts out per update. Nobody comes even near it.
12 months was long, yep... too long even i agree... and yet... still DPC delivered more content here than any other DEV or even bigger DEV Teams were capable off in the same time. It might felt short to you, but it wasnt, thats not a "subjective" opinion, its just a fact. I sincerly hope that DPC cut out on animations, cause they were the sole reason why it took so long, everything else of the episode could have been done in 6 months. But he planned so many animations from day one, so... he knew they would took about 10-12 months to render anyway,he can render about 1 animation per day... 335 animations total... well you dont need to be a genius to figure out why it took 12 months to be finished, and its annoying cause half of them are not neccessary.
Regarding "immersion" and irrelevant text or distractions... again, did you even played episodes before? It had more rooster posts than any other episode so far. The characters talked all the time about this and that, ep9 was kinda a whole episode with ONLY irrelevant talk, and that was the biggest issue for most people. In fact, you could skip ep9 entirely and it wouldnt even make a significant difference. With epiosde 10 DPC found the way back how it was before in episode 1-8. 50% fun and distraction, 50% meaningful talks/scenes/plotprogression which again... is how most episodes were before too + - some percentage. EP9 was 95% irrelevant talk and fun... which was just awful, especially considered that everything happend at one day ingame and in one free roam. I guess ep9 is your favorite than. But its a exception, thats not how being a dik was or ever supposed to be.
Overall, you expectation doesnt match with the game at all, and i cant shake the feeling off that you either didnt played 1-8, or didnt pay attention to them... dont know. But everything that bothers you is pretty much the same in every episode except episode 9 (and the interlude if you want to count that)
There is nothing wrong with it if the game isnt for you... but you complain especially about episode 10 what it does wrong... and all the things are pretty much the same in episode 1-8 too. Which is REALLY strange. So overall, the whole game is not for you, not just episode 10.
And finally "But the fact of being a playboy was essential" And thats where you and many others are wrong.
Being a playboy is ONLY for the "others" route (and even there you cant be with many girls anymore). And was never the "essence" of the game. The essence of the game is a normal dude before adulthood comes to college and get the whole college experience and a lot more plotwise, and maybe finding a girlfriend along the ride, not fucking around every pussy on campus the whole 16 episodes long.
That said, its okay that you dont like the game, many dont like it, which is more often than not reasonable too. But you complain about things in episode 10 which is practically in every episode before the exact same. So... you didnt liked episode 1-8 too, or if you did, its really really strange, cause episode 10 delivers the same as those, just more of it... with... well, way to many animations.

Derek who???
As far as I know, Beth is not involved in the prostitution scheme.Actually I think Rebecca IS Leah at a young age - before the things of Acting lesssons happened. She got expelled from college because of the drugs and leading an prostitution ring at college (with Prof Burke..) so she changes her hairstyle a bit (mind you not the color!) and goes into the social branch of work in becoming a nurse. Sadly though she still is a psycho who has a drive to tirture and kill people - like Liam and Co. ... how does that sound?
James became Madame Rose. That's why James is missing. James no longer exists.I'm not saying that Bella is using the MC as a 'rebound guy' on purpose. What I'm saying is that Bella clearly saw in MC a 'shelter' capable of protecting her from the storm that caused her so much distress (James' death).
If James returns, this storm will end and the question remains: will Bella continue to be under the 'shelter' (MC) even after the storm (James' absence) has come to an end? Unless the DPC has some hell of writing, I don't know how the MC would come out the winner in a scenario where James returns.
DPC would either have to villainize James more, like he did to Maya's father in Ep.10 to justify Bella choosing the MC over him or Bella would have to fall in love to the point where she realizes she never loved James in the first place ( kind of absurd, but who knows).
By the way, I really like your opinions... you have some very good insights, you always respond by posting an image of the game to complement your answers and I think it's awesome.
I think me and a couple of guys wrote all of them 3-4 times at least.Man I just want the walkthough update so I know what 8-10 four letter words I'm missing from the English test.
How's it gonna accept nard but not nega, cmon.

Who the hell is Agnes?ok i am playing the first season and i have 2 suspisions and 1 question
I am suspecting that Agnes is Mc's grandmother from the side of his mother
The second suspicuion is that Bella and Jill were in a relationship
Tke question i have can we romanche them both at the same time??? (Bell & Jill)
Basically, she's angry with everybody. You might ask yourself why she scattered around Cathy's naked picture.As far as I know, Beth is not involved in the prostitution scheme.
Either she's secretly in love with MC, or she wants him dead because he spoke badly of the cafeteria food...![]()
Agnes! Agnes! Who the hell is Agnes? (If people don't get this, I'll post a reference later).Who the hell is Agnes?
No no, the solutions happen in the science minigame. For the maths one, you just want answers.what are diamond minigame solutions?

What did you choose? Convince Jill to do FATALITY or show mercy to Tybalt?
