if you keep your distance on the first date you have in fact dumped Jill, she is aware that you will be 'just friends'.Exactly. Had I known it would be all about Madame, I would have rejected the pass even on my massive DIK playthroughs. I thought we would have our pick of the litter from all the strippers for the VIP room, but nope, I got bamboozled.
-- Unrelated topic --
Just finished Bella "solo" route playthrough. The problem I have with the Bella route is that there is no way you can follow it without being a massive dick to Jill. DPC gives us no option to fully reject her while seducing Bella. Even if you are a pure of heart CHICK who tries to ignore all women but Bella you still have to date Jill and lead her on for a good portion of the game.
Finally, in 6 & 7 DPC begins giving opportunities to steer away from Jill but not before playing enough mind games that she will be disgusted with both MC and Bella when she finds out the truth. Essentially, you have to destroy a friendship and a heart (maybe two hearts) to date Bella. Add to this the ominous internal voice in the library and one has to wonder if DPC will allow any kind of happiness end to the Bella route.![]()
As a matter of sincerity either Mc or Bella could talk to Jill about their relationship, but that's a venial sin.
by the way: it's a pity that the jealousy mechanism was only implemented in the seventh chapter, in theory it should have been triggered already when, eventually, Jill finds out that Bella hosted MC
I think it is very unlikely that future episodes will become "leaner", the further we go the more forks there will be to take into account, so either there will be a consistent reduction in play time per run, or the size of the single chapter is more likely to increase rather than decrease (without considering technical improvements).But I honestly doubt it would take that long. Not every episode will be as big as episode 7 or 8. I think 16 episode will be it, even with 2 episode a year that's just 4 year..
the only chapter that might be more contained is the final chapter of epilogues, where there will be little to choose from, but only to cash in what we've earned
