That's Quinn's problem though she has no idea how to run a business and doesn't have any plan either. You can see that when she talks to that prep guy Rich and asks him for a ridiculous amount of money and is forced to reduce the cost by a lot. As far as we know she has mainly been seling to the Jocks who are morons and only using the drugs for herself, Tommy and Riona.
Or maybe Quinn asking for a ridiculous amount of money is due to her being desperate.
I'm not so sure about the no idea of running a business I think she has just made some poor choices. And with the whole plan thing, she does have a plan we just don't know what it is. Remember the scene when she is outside talking with Riona she points in the direction to someone off-screen about a plan B it's who was she pointing to this was when the feminists were having a protest and Derek got involved and Jade showed up.
I forgot about that scene. But after the latest episode Im assuming she probably meant Tybalt and the preps since he is Jades son and she must know that.
But for someone to have a certain reputation, their actions have to be known by some in order to form that reputation of them. Of the now 9 major choices that apparently form this reputation, the most that might be widely known around campus is 5 and the least is 2.
Steam only gets full season not individual episodes.
Not really, no. So far it's only really mattered with Maya's scene in ep 3, but doesn't seem much bearing anywhere else.
It's also possible. The main problem seems to be Quinn's behaviour. She made too much assumptions without considering things couldn't go as planned. They weren't so short on cash in ep3 and she assumed the next big ordering for the alpha and involving more girls will cover the losses. But then, the Alpha stopped orderings pills and she accepted new pledges, which isn't a smart move considering Lily will not be as malleable as Camila, and Ashley and Josy don't really fit her secrets activities. She didn't even consider the possibility the preps could refuse her terms.
Since Tommy told her to fuck off the Josy thing might either make her more valuable or useless depending on if Tommy actually cares about Josy or not. I think the money might have been used to buy harder drugs that you see her injecting and convincing Tommy to use and Riona might not know about them.
I guess she must have been banking on the preps to bring in that much-needed income but even so, it seems that she is very limited to the kind of drugs she can get hold of.
Yeah it seems kind of inconsistent since she somehow cant get a hold of cocaine for the preps but is able to get drugs that require a needle which I guess is heroine or something like that.
I did it the pragmatic way with my three saves: Derek on the neutral / have fun save, Sage on the DIK, Isabella on the CHICK save.
To play Devil's Advocate:
We don't know what's going on it in terms of the drugs supply & where she fits into it other than being the campus supplier. It could be she needs to sell a certain amount if weed which is why she says she says she can't get cocaine.
Yeah that could be possible. I just hope we get some flasbacks that show how Quinns business works and how she started it right now its still quite vague and we also dont really know much about her either I think she really needs more backstory.
Before ep5 I was 100% sure she's Chechov's gun similiar to ex from AL but after hearing Isabella backstory I'm thinking maybe Zoey's just a red herring, nothing more. She probably will appear briefly anyway but w/o any major impact on the story.
It was just one possible interpretation, please don't extrapolate it like that.
Yes but it's a game we're talking about. A game where some characters has depth and some are paperthin dolls. To which caterogry we shall classify Tommy at the end is not clear yet.
Actually it's a terrible example even in case of this particular point being defying for affinity because yeah, MC might be talking to them after smoking a weed and despite that he'd be no longer high they could easily smell it. Not to mention some possible drawback, bloodshot eyes a bit etc.
That's not how it works. Actions are still will appear, it just status will be capped but how exactly is impossible to tell yet. Judging by current state I'd say it will be 5/-5 for the opposite side (instead of 20) or 0 after 2 neutral points will be gone as well.
Of course it's unrealistic but first - the whole interpretation affinity=reputation should be discarded, it weren't designed that way, obviously. Second - imo it's merely a roleplay tool and I think it's actually good at that. Game is supposed to be played once and w/o any meta-knowledge (i.e. going full blind). That way system adds flavour a lot and apart from possible narrative inconsistency it spice things up in contrast to possible focus on RP like it usually done in similiar VNs.
Eh, it's probably just a lie. I wouldn't be suprised if turns out Quinn herself is basically the sole reason for 'shortness'.
I always took that scene as a clear indication Quinn was lying to Tommy. If Quinn was willing to slap Riona, I very much doubt she would avoid correctly blaming Riona for the shortfall just to preserve her feelings. To me, the picture we get is that Quinn knows what caused the shortfall, but will not admit it even to her close allies.
I didn't get that either her drug dealer can't really be very serious and can't get access to anything else it feels like there are a few plotholes with this I hope they get cleared up because as you say not being able to get hold of the likes of cocaine but she can inject some drugs just doesn't add up.
For what possible reason would she lie about it? She knew she was in trouble in this update and needed that money from the preps she may lie about other things but I don't think she's lying here.
