They look all chill and smiley because they lack expressive facial muscles to look scared shitless...Sloths are so adorable. They'd give Josy a run for cuteness.
like Jill...They look all chill and smiley because they lack expressive facial muscles to look scared shitless...
TIL. Interesting defense mechanism. (I assume thats why.)They look all chill and smiley because they lack expressive facial muscles to look scared shitless...
So THATs why Jill is taking things so slow. She's half-sloth!like Jill...![]()
I understand what you mean, but you don’t always get a super climactic resolution or revelation in an episode (e.g. MJ mystery coming to a surprise climactic resolution after Josy comes to the dorms), and you really shouldn’t too, that would just be one climactic event after another with no ‘breaks’chapter 6 is full of content, you are right. all relationships develop, some very well, others less so.
but it has a problem, it is completely anti-climax.
the mystery of the mother's letter? a legacy that does not warm even the very poor protagonists without TV and a diary in which, for now, nothing important is written.
will Maya be able to convince Quinn that she has completed her list? sure, Quinn won't see anything at all ..
Maya discovers that the free tuition, at least as she intended it, was all a hoax, but we players have known this for some time
what will happen to Rusty and the DIKs for Cathe's photo? nothing, absolutely nothing
then the big news is Tybalt's blackmail to Jill, but even there, Tybalt remains an unbelievable villain and Jill completely ignores the blackmail throughout the chapter until she talks about it with MC
all the suspense of the chapter is relegated to the last minutes, in which the slide show with Maya's father, Mona, Burke, etc. starts.
I'm actually chomping at the bit to see what happens with that. Technically, she came out ahead, since she got paid with extra AND got to keep the 8ball for another potential sale. But the way she hides it just reminds me of Breaking Bad with the ricin. Some dark shit is going to come of it.(including the coke she bought)

This is subjective, but for me, Sage breaking up with Chad was ‘big’, it was leading up to this falling out scene for 4+ episodes, and it finally got resolved in 6
I am also pretty sure that some of the storylines could have immediate or medium-term consequences for the nearest future e.g., the HOTs evaluation and its aftermath giving Maya a harsh piece of reality and realization about the HOTs and the ‘free tuition’; Quinn taking up too much on her plate (including the coke she bought) and somewhat starting to lose control of the situation in general, etc. etc. etc.

I'm thinking DPC might go with the overdose plot. But I have this feeling he might use Riona for it. She's been so stressed out, even with the weed, I kind of think she's being set up to find the coke somehow, and take it thinking she needs a 'higher' high to deal with the stress. After all, just once can't hurt, right? Just once.in my opinion it is one of the most interesting points of the chapter.
what will Quinn do with it? will she use it herself (overdose)? Will she use it to get someone in trouble?
opens up many scenarios
You're right. It seems like this chapter fully reflects his title: "Damage Control".you're right, every event doesn't always have to be at the peak of drama
all emotional moments were good (the chat with Maya, the caress with Bella, the three segments with Sage...)
but the question of Mc mother's letter was long awaited (by me but I believe also by others), and has proved to be insignificant at least for now, quite boring...
and Jill's blackmail HAD to be something better, it was the first time she had a completely dedicated event, but it was really limp, so limp that for me it burned even the moment of revelation. I consider that a missed and "badly written" opportunity.
I'll give another example: the final part with Maya also wants to be a dramatically strong moment, but it's not, apart from the "technical" clarifications on the loan, they were all things we already knew. and this inevitably ends up weakening the impact of the scene
there are of course also the completely successful parts like that of Quinn (everything from the initial flashback, to her solo segment, to the trade with Rick to the eventual scene with MC)
OMG now you scared me as hell. Because, thinking about it, it's absolutely possible.I'm thinking DPC might go with the overdose plot. But I have this feeling he might use Riona for it.

I can only speak for one M&J fan, but the Episode 6 threesome was not particularly memorable in my view. It was fun, but I'd say it was their least interesting lewd scene to date. Their lesbian scene at the start of the episode was a lot better; even if the MC was not directly involved, it gave us a lot more insight into the two.I think that pretty much nails it.
I still enjoyed playing it, but there were no deeply satisfying scenes.
My favourite scene was meeting up with Nicole at the bar and the aftermath.
I guess for M&J fans the threesome was a big moment.
I'm apparently in the minority because I just don't care much about the Quinn scene.It's funny, the Quinn scene played out on my first play through and while I was pleasantly surprised it happened, it didn't hit me as so significant, but after all the talking and analysis on these boards, it's now become a more significant scene to me.![]()
I would not consider that as a trheesome since they wanted to complete the list and apart from that I don't think that Maya in that place was not very comfortableI can only speak for one M&J fan, but the Episode 6 threesome was not particularly memorable in my view.

Particularly how much Maya is stressing about wanting to know how she can be good for the MC. Her wanting to make a good impression when having sex with him I think shows how much she wants him to like her which, I would say, shows how much she likes him because this is a big deal for her.I can only speak for one M&J fan, but the Episode 6 threesome was not particularly memorable in my view.

To me, it doesn't feel like it's because she instinctively knows that the MC and Maya are a thing because even for those who have sex with Quinn, she'll tease him the next day about Maya being his "soon-to-be girlfriend", so she's clearly clueless about what's going on. It seems to be entirely based on balancing the lewd scenes, not giving players everything on every path, even when it feels that it doesn't make sense to be denied at least the chance at the scene based on your playthrough.I'm apparently in the minority because I just don't care much about the Quinn scene.
It's good that players who like her can get some actual interaction with her, of course. But since I still don't like her, I find the scene pretty bland. We already knew Quinn had a sensitive side, and we already knew she was into the MC (like everyone else). The most interesting takeaway from her scene in my book was entirely meta, namely the way she rejects any MC who was accepted by Maya. If that's a deliberate insight into the character, it's quite interesting. (If it's just a game balance effect, then I'd say the scene is just one more lewd encounter.)
The 3 of them having a romantic moment in the HOT's pool?Seeing this preview makes me think that actually here are the 3 celebrating the MC's birthday in a more romantic way possible

That butt need to be spanked
It IS hard to forget Jacob's comments about that pool.The 3 of them having a romantic moment in the HOT's pool?I don't think so.
It seems right up his alley, and Riona has been made very expendable with that last scene in ep6 she was in.OMG now you scared me as hell. Because, thinking about it, it's absolutely possible.
DPC PLEASE DON'T KILL RIONA!!!
Doesn't have to be the HOT's pool necessarily. Could be a pool elsewhere. Campus pool. Or a club nearby. Josy's being friending it up with Jill, so she could have invited them somewhere.The 3 of them having a romantic moment in the HOT's pool?I don't think so.
I don't think that is the Hot's pool since it could be the campus pool this could be in the gym we have only seen two pools in the gameThe 3 of them having a romantic moment in the HOT's pool?I don't think so.
I'm going to play the devil's advocate, the problem here was your expectation and not what was delivered. I was vocal about not everybody in this game needs to be related or even have a family with a great name and everybody had a theory about mc being Rusty's cousin or even a Roice. Mc being a nobody, I think is awesome and it wasn't insignificant, we are getting to know mcs mother background, Neil (aka uncle Ben) is the best character in the game and we'll see how they get together. Now with DPC pushing 14~20 EPs you can have that or new minigames, take your pickyou're right, every event doesn't always have to be at the peak of drama

Well, right now we only know of one pool that exists on campus and when this preview was released, I made a post about how, although we don't see much of it, the ceiling of the HOT's pool has a recessed section that looks very similar to the one above Josy in that preview.I don't think that is the Hot's pool since it could be the campus pool this could be in the gym we have only seen two pools in the game
