I only post here when a new episode comes out, but I've got a few questions for anyone kind enough to reply:
1) Is it possible to get Jill over her stage fright? The end-of-chapter text implies it is an option, but even in my Jill save I couldn't talk her around.
2) Anyone done the obligatory "where are all the renders" walkthrough for this chapter yet? I'm one Sally pic short.
3) Who the hell is the chick we can peek at getting double-teamed at the dorm party? The text suggests we ought to know her, but I sure don't. Is this a reference to something I don't get or just something DPC hasn't explained yet?
Thanks in advance for anyone with answers.
As for general thoughts on the chapter, for anyone who cares... it's fine. I've now resigned myself to the fact that we've figured everything out and there really aren't any giant surprises left (at least among the mysteries set up to this point). All the big potential "A-HA!" moments here are things people have been speculating on for months or even years, and the fan community has been pretty much spot on. Give enough people enough time and no matter how clever you are as a writer they will figure out what you're setting up. It's a consequence of sequential storytelling over time, and there's just nothing DPC can do about it. Which makes me a little sad, actually, which is unfortunately my lingering emotional response to the chapter as a result. I already feel a little disengaged, like I don't care as much about where the story goes from here. Six months from now a new chapter will come out, and I'll play it and it'll be fun, and then I'll set it aside until the next bit and not really think about it between. Like I said, sad.
