This was what disappointed me about this episode. When I opened the game for the first time in ep6, i went straight to the secnes menu to see how many we had after 5.5 months, and when I saw that many I was so hyped and looking forward to it. Then I finish the episode and see that only 8+Jills were real ones and the others were from DnG.
So we waited more than usual for animations and renders of a SIDEQUEST??
Honestly this, so much. I was shocked by the amount of locked EP6 scenes in the gallery when I started and told myself this episode will be the biggest and best one yet.. Sadly half of it was little non-canon scenes. I was worried since I saw the previews of another table game taking precious development time and it happened on an even bigger scale, I don't get this decision. It was fun but no way worth the resources it takes from the development.
Put that together with the fact that almost no advancement was made with LIs, and you get a disappointing update in terms of story. The god tier music and the god tier animations and real scenes saved the update to just disappointing and not complete trash.
Yeah and also very questionable choices from main LI's.
-Bella staying over in a frat house, just a day ago a big scandal happened with another teacher lol ? How a logical and coldheaded woman like her decides its okay to stay the night. I liked her scene dont get me wrong but it was out of character for her to stay.
-Jill's naivety is getting bothersome. I disliked how she handles the blackmail stuff. Believing tybear and not waking up to his stalker vibes are getting annoying. Whole innocent and clueless stereotype is overdone.
-Nothing much with Sage, little annoyed to her reaction to Chad even after all this time but I guess it is expected, its in her character. She just had less screentime which is normal since she had a lot in last episode.
-I have no idea why Quinn rejected my offer to help? Dik status with no M&J but she still says fuck off. I'm guessing maybe I declined her open buffet girls for money in the past? It also locked me out on Sarah's scene even though my MC did a lot of shit with her. Weird forced splitting content yet again.
-Only friends with M&J but still another cliffhanger is about them, I guess they are the Megan&Melissa of this story. I hope it won't repeat the same shit and MC can actually choose one of them if it is possible. My MC cannot forget Maya..
With all said and done I still liked this update a lot. A lot of good moments with DIK boys, I loved the mini game about repairing the mansion. I Loved the way my MC and Tommy bonded and went to that bar. This was the episode of side girls, god tier Nicole delivered, she was drooling over MC. Also with goddess Nora suprising us in the bar. What a treat. I liked the wingman Tommy and everyone at the bar. Best part of the EP for me.
