Solo's and a shared scene for Josy and Maya in ep10. While a 3some with Josy and Maya could happen i'm expediting there break up this ep or next so not sure how a other 3some fits in with that
I have a feeling that's for different reasons, but hooray for splitting up the MJ couple!!:devilish:

Don't want to rehash our whole discussion from a few days ago, but from my perspective, it definitely looks like you're seeing what you want to see here, unless you're making choices in-game that actively weaker their relationship. In my playthrough where I intentionally spend time with both Josy and Maya and support their relationship, the signs pretty overwhelming point to their relationship moving in a positive direction even though they still have issues to work out.

Now, I could be influenced by my own biases as well of course, but it sounds like a lot of others here feel the same way regarding the MJ throuple's health if you commit to them and don't heavily favor one over the other.
If it was just what I want to see I wouldn't keep fighting so hard for it. All the sings point to it coming to a end after playing through many times that's what makes the most sense to me. If you look at Acting Lessons then DIK it is tracking pretty similarly just not as dark up to ep10 anyway. Josy and Maya are the Megan and Missy (Megan and Missy only being friends doesn't chance anything to me nor should it) The MC there had pick and I think the MC in DIk will have to pick just no death this time.

I feel like DPC will give us the option to repair the throuple if it breaks up by the end of the game.
He knows people compare both his games and I think he will want to give us more options than before just to show he can.

I'm not gonna spoil them, but I don't see DPC doing that quad poly path.
Gotcha. I've seen some quads done well in other games and the elements are there if the dev wanted to go that way. Obviously I don't have full context of what type of plots DPC does, so was just idle speculation.

Maybe, but I really think DPC doesn't care what fans think he always going to hold to "stick to your vision or it isn't really yours" He knows people want the throuple and that they think "well we was force to pick Megan or Missy and the loser dies he won't do that again, DPC sits back in his chair saying watch me bitches :ROFLMAO:

Keep in mind this isn't a harm game and a throuple is a harm

That's for sure, Acting Lessons seems like a try out before BaDIK. We can see that he brought a lot from there, Hedwig was a HOT, there were some names like Lynette (which is not that common), also the psycologyst I believe has the same face as Lynette from BaDIK. But the thing is that it seems to show the way he thinks of a story.

There are some nice games with harem paths out there. But Acting Lessons and the intro of BaDIK do not point in that direction to me. DPC seems to, although he know it's porn, wants to keep some "reality" (and I like that).

Well, i was a bit optimistic the last months and considered an october release. Which is reasonable cause so far the longest dev cycle was 10 months. (dont know why so many people are talking about that DPC only release every 12 months, that was never the case so far, but it could be this time)
Episode 9 was December 2022, episode 10 was December 2023. As this episode is not going to be shorter than episode 10 that's why people are convinced that December is the earliest possible date for episode 11. As you also said in your post though there is a possibility of him adding more content that he originally planned for this episode, unfortunately as you thought that the maximum cycle was 10 months so far, rather than taking the update from October to December it would take the update from December to early 2025.

Ironically, including a poly path could arguably be a more realistic depiction since recent studies have found somewhere around 10% of people in the US have engaged in it at some point in their life and 5% actively still are. This actually makes it more common than lesbian relationships (about 4%) and I rarely see complaints that including a lesbian relationship isn't realistic.

Edit:

Funny quote from one study on this:
Looking at lifetime prevalence, 1 out of 5 people (19.6–21.9%) have engaged in some form of consensual non-monogamy. To put this into perspective, previous engagement in consensual non-monogamy is as common as owning a cat or speaking a language other than English at home in the United States.

When are people going to realize that Josy and Maya are Melissa and Megan - except in BADIK you will have to choose which girls heart you are going to break. Throuple is not surviving lol

I don't think so tbh. Sort of like DPC I kind of think I'm better than most people and if I know anything about that kind of attitude it's that it must annoy him greatly that people compare both his games.

I know it would eat me alive if I was him.

I would consider that a bad definition:sneaky: it three people dating each other it would have to count
Honestly I'm not a fan of the "harem" tag definition here either, but for completely different reasons lol. Namely, that there isn't a "polyamory" tag for more equitable relationships between multiple partners.

Edit: Harem also has the connotation that you can have all the girls at once, whereas in some games even if there's poly paths it might not be the case that you can "catch em all".
