After this update, I don't think I like DPC anymore. I've been largely indifferent to them with regards to the story direction, writing, etc, and willing to give them the benefit of doubt that they won't take this down too dark a road and pile on the drama, but I think those days may be gone.

It has often felt like DPC is very much trying to stride out on their own here by making a game that is massively different to everything else out there, not just in terms of its story and gameplay, but by wanting to fuck people up as much as people with difficult choices, serious drama, and gut-wrenching consequences. It's almost as if they're trying to punish people for playing adult games and I can almost imagine them sitting at their desk ghost-reading comments here and checking their Discord while gleefully rubbing their hands together like Mr Burns and cackling, "hee, hee, hee, your agony is delicious."

But just to say, as someone who plays the M&J route, it actually had some nice moments in this episode and actually seems like it could be the best one in this whole game, provided DPC doesn't toss anymore hand grenades into it or kill one of them off, and honestly, after this episode, I feel I can no longer rule that out as a possibility. :cry:
You know, for someone not liking melodrama, you're acting like a drama queen yourself. Also, i'm not sure why you're so surprised by this turn. AL also piled on the drama the further it went on and now this game is doing the same, so it's not like their isn't precedence for this. Not to mention the big fat disclaimer at the start. If you really expected this to be pure light-hearted escapism, you have no one but yourself to blame.

But he has money and lawyers!

Bitch you don't? We are having this conversation in your private ranch full of private horses, which we arrived with your sports car.
Wrong so far they are not even a couple.
If Bella hears about Tybalt blackmail she will crucify him.

Honestly, I think the Author is wasting OUR/his/the MC's time on too many side girls.

What's the point in screwing those strippers, that chick in the bar and those cheap HOT whores when the MC's relationships with Sage, Jill and Bella aren't moving forward?

I'm quite disappointed, you know. I think the Author should focus on the main girls (Sage, Jill, Isabella, Josy and Maya).

The worst part about that whole thing is that IRL, Tybalt's threatened lawsuit wouldn't work out. DPC dumbing down Jill's character to allow her to succumb to some weak threats is wack asf and bad writing. Jill has the resources to counter a lawsuit from Tybalt and could even threaten right back by refusing to talk to him/converse with him if he were to move forward with those threats.
at the time of me playing it didn't bug me too much because I was in shock from the reveal. You make a really good point and yeah like Jill says to you that Tybalt has money and connections well... Jill you and your family sure do have those too xD I guess DPC wanted to add a twist but it was unneeded. I hope this game doesn't become Acting Lessons 2.0 . Not that I didn't like it I loved Acting Lessons I just want this to be a game of its own and don't become too dark.

You must be on a DIK path. Only scenes I got in CHIC were Josy, Maya, Bella and Jill related. Not one sidegirl.

not so much as a dumb down, or at least I never liked jill because she did that from the start, only time she called him out was on a rooster post
I think its because she is starting to see that tybalt is the kind of person who would bribe witness or some how otherwise exploit his financial situation or the law. also even if he didn't sue he could just run to his dad and get the MC expelled

Yeah it's annoying you would think spending time with Bella might at least give you a bit more confidence to stand up for yourself.
