Since ep2, Maya, is portrayed as the vulnerable sweet little thing the MC is supposed to protect and comfort all the time. Quinn bullies her, Sarah and Melanie mock her, she has a shitty relationship with her father, she must hide her relationship with Josy, she worries about Derek's cheating, she can't deal with the pledges sexual list, she's insecure with the MC because she never felt attracted to a boy before and the list goes on...

I mean she basically spent the whole episode 4 crying and trying to apologise and AGAIN in ep5 the MC has to comfort her because she felt jealous over the fatherly love Josy received from her father. It feels like the MC has to be the "Ken Doll". We don't really see new sides of her character and she clearly lacks moments when she genuinely bonds with the MC and actually offer real support in return.

By comparison, Sage is introduced as the typicall Girl Posse but she has shown hidden depths. The relationship feels more balanced and organic not only because they are actually bonding on several points (guitar lessons, sex-games, mutual dislike of Dawe, romantic issues...) but also because they comfort and support each other. The MC gave her the affection and the attention chad didn't provide and act like a confidant. On her side, Sage spent the whole ep4 helping and warming the MC up. She's more equal and far less needy. Even the whole fuck buddy things become more and more tender and romantic, showing a real progression.

Same thing for Bella and Jill. They share more activities ( Tennis, Yoga, music, cooking, real dates...) and the MC has to be more mature and subtle with them. They have vulnerable side but the MC doesn't have to act like a big brother figure (actually it's the opposite). Their past and connection is also more intriguing.

The fact Maya has to share his plot with Josy don't help either.
Maya doesn’t know what she wants and therefore such behavior

Uhm... Maybe something similar to what happened when Jill slept with MC? If I remember correctly, the MC woke up with his hand between Jill's legs... Maybe Jill has some vivid dreams and once Bella woke up with Jill's face between her boobs?

DPC, we need a detailed flashback, please! :KEK:
I think this is a correct theory.
We know for a fack that Jill hugs and humps while sleeping. It give's context to the exchange.
Plus is ammunition for my personal theory that Bella is a recovering sex addict.

Yeah, Maya hasn't changed since episode 1 she is still the damsel in destress.
Sage on the other hand moved from the last intressting to my top 3 main LI, (still team Jill & Bella)
she showed a new side to her in episode 3 and the relationship moves slowly to a more romatic one.

yeah, the moral of the story is that Maya after 5 episodes still doesn't know what she wants.
Idk where is Pink going with her story but it is getting more and more tireing with each episode.
Well, at least she took a big step on their route by doing what was coming and we could just ignore them on DIK route. I'm very okay with that, since I do their route only for content... Josy on the other hand, on friends route was a bit sad to see her situation, not gonna lie there

Same is true for Josy, those two are all over the place. But I don't really care as long as the dev handles Sage, Isabella & Jill well throughout the story.

Personally, I don't care much for Maya. And even less for Jill. I like Josy tho, and find the relation with Sage really sweet (the way it builds up is really nice and in a way believable).
But my real sweetheart is Bella. I'm a goner for the way she looks at MC, and her deadpan looks. The way she looks at you when you joke about her car is golden. I'm just a bit concerned about the "if i had know about her story I would have run away", gave me some AL vibes and won't lie I'm still a bit scarred by that game.

can't understand why this game is ranked this high with a 3370 pages thread when at best it's a 6/10 gobbo gamu while games with potential and way better nsfw stuff are discarded.
Do tell, which adult games here are better in terms of story and characters? Only one that comes close is City of Broken dreamers. And the nsfw stuff in this game is good, not the best this genre has to offer but I prefer better writing over quality nsfw (which is just like porn, this offers more)

I really like Bella too and her story has the most potential to go crazy like AL did since she is so mysterious. I hope it doesn't go the shock value way, wouldn't really fit

I think you guys are forgetting that Sage and Jill are in fact, older than the MC, they have been through most off their growing pains, while Josy and Maya are still in the midle of theirs, and so is the MC, also, Bella is an adult, hell she is probably 10 to 20 year older than the MC, and still she is going through shit, so remember this, Josy, Maya, Derek, and MC are basically fresh out of highschool, they are still kids, while the other have already grown, hopfully this 4 will grow as well.

Edit: Also, it has been what? one week? growing takes time.

5 episodes that have taken place over just 2 weeks, and it's only been 2 days since the end of ep 3 reveal, so it's not exactly a lot of time for someone to be 100% decisive over something this important.

Maya was seemingly ready to make a decision at the end of ep 3, but then Josy's arrival changed all that. Now, in ep 5, it's been a day since they decided on either something or nothing so there hasn't been a lot of time to process things, and it's easy to see why she would still be indecisive because of that. Either she made a mistake rejecting him/letting him get away, or she's taking a huge risk getting involved with him and Josy. It's not exactly something that's easy to get your head around in such a short space of time.

I think that, as time goes on, she'll get a better idea of what she wants, and on the threesome path in particular, which is the one I'm most focussed on, I think she'll realise she really wants to try for both.

A word of caution on using scrappy's mod. If you intend to play future episodes by getting them from this site, the scrappy mod will not work with the future updates and any saves made with the scrappy mod are not compatible with an unmodded version of the game.

So I would recommend that you have two versions of the game; a modded one and a clean, unmodded one. Play the game unmodded first and make all the saves you want, then go back and play the modded version and make separate save files for them.
Hello,

I have another question for you.
I am downloading the game from here (and I understand that my steam saves won't work and I would have to replay it completely. But when the steam version (season 2 comes out with Ep5 onwards) would those save work with the steam version saves? (as I some how manage to run scrappy's mod on the steam version with crashing the game) or would I again have to replay it on steam too?

There is no dobleclick,
1. Rooster app, Lily's cluck, select tequila post,
2. Talk to Lily,
3. Find tequila at the bar,
4. Talk to the bartender,
5. Talk to Derek once if you've talked to him before, twice if you're talking to him for the first time.
6. Click on the tequila at the bar.
7. Go back to Lily,
8. Tell the bartender about the lemon,
9. Find Lily upstairs (middle floor).
Thanks Some how the message was not sent to lilly in first place.

Yes, you'll have to replay the game from ep 4 onwards when season 2 (likely eps 5-8) is released on Steam because Steam and Ren'py save files are not compatible with each other.
