Is it just me, or do you guys think that the game is giving you hints that you could carry on your relationship with either Josy or Maya without the other? Or is Dr. PinkCake just teasing us? I mean I know it seems unlikely because you couldn't possibly do that without breaking one's heart, but it would be great for someone like me who is not interested in a 3-way relationship.
The fact that you can choose to go back to one or the other is pretty telling, and that on both paths they give the MC a good idea of their feelings for him. So I reckon it will be possible to focus more on one of them for those who just want one of them. However, I guess it all depends on the variables involved with these types of events and how that might effect things.
This choice, for example, has different variables depending on the path. The friendship path has variables "ep5_feelingsForJosy" and "ep5_feelingsForMaya", and the threesome path has "ep5_fucked_josy" and "ep5_fucked_maya", so perhaps whichever one is labeled as "True" might have an effect on future events and choices leading to different paths. However, the scrappy mod now has a section to adjust certain important variables, like whether or not you're in a relationship with M & J, but these ep 5 variables do not appear there on either path. So either they're not that important, or it's too early to tell if they're important and it's why they're not changeable in the mod yet.
If RP still mean anything, then you can get some for both of them at the same time by dancing with them on the threesome path and other moments like who you call when at Bella's and the picnic allow you to get separate points, but you can still get most of them for both M & J. I only missed out on one point for Maya in this episode by not calling her and am only one point off her maximum whilst I managed to max out Josy's points.
Personally, I hope DPC will make it so that we can get a threesome route with them, and so if every M&J choice is going to be a one-or-other sort of thing, then they could make it so that you have to balance M & J events to get a threesome path, or if you just want one of them then you simply choose all or most of one girl's events.
