there are two aspects that make me be pessimistic

the interlude: I think it will be released before chapter 9, so between interlude and chapter 9, I do not think we will see more next year (even without interlude I saw it difficult)

the new structure of the saves, if the chosen LI becomes so important, this will necessarily increase the length of the chapters even more, if you are faithful to Sage in the chapter there must be "a lot" of Sage, and this applies to all and this can only lengthen the time of realization
I was waiting someone commenting on how bad was that Bella scene at the begining. Not only it was short but James lost any interest for me as a character. It was a one dimensional guy from a porn story. His only goal seemed to have sex with his wife. Now personally i can understand that, if your wife is Bella... but still... if you compare that with the tension achieved with Chad being blackmailed or the emotional insight we get from Quinn and Jill's childhoods... well its totally lame.

About the interlude. Yeah, could be, i also had a bad spin (who the fuck cares about Zoey?). But it could be a break DPC gaves him in the middle of his work. Or maybe he is doing like Summertime Saga. He has a long update and he want to release some short material content in the middle to compensate the fans. What we dont know and have no reasons to think its that this is a regular thing. Like every update is going to have an interlude. Even if Ep9 need 1 year, ep 10 could be back to 6 months.

evidence?

not really, but what convinced me now is just the simple line in episode 3 after the making out with Bella, that the MC rather would called for help instead of kissing her if he has known the truth.

Why would he say that if Bella doesnt need serious help?

Of course she is really married... but we cant say what happened to the husband. He just could have left, or maybe died in accident caused by Bella? And than she went crazy.

Jill knows something about the husband, but cleary not everything or the whole truth... and she doenst know what is in the locked room either... i will say, it the refugium for Bella to keep her husband "alive"... maybe the room is papered with pictures and so on...

*edit* and yeah it the starting scene of ep8 the boss is really acting a little weird... but i think formost concerned. She is sending Bella home, and i think she is doing so cause she senses that Bella isnt well.

And the Guy with the sunglases on the bench is strangely watching Bella... but i think everybody has encountered some people in real life talking to themself, and i bet you woudl watch them in a strange way too... so its another match for this theory i think.
I still firmly believe that James and Bella split up due to the loss of a child and the strain it put on their relationship. I feel like that's what's behind that locked door. Her childs bedroom that she's keeping as it was when the child died. The only evidence I have that supports this theory is the step stool in the bathroom next to the sink...unless James was a midget, I don't see any other reason that should be there.

What is the gameplay length of this episode? I mean, there's more than 5GB than the previous one, so I assume that it's way bigger than the others, right?

I'm not sure, but DPC doesn't need to spend a lot of time creating the environment now, as he has created designs for almost all locations. The interlude is confusing, I agree, but I don't think it will be necessary to create 1000 renders for the sake of a minor character. The interlude, I assume, will be a linear story with a couple of animations and without complex code and mini-games, and may come out within a month after the announcement of the start of work.

What happens, if I don't decide on a LI? Does it mean harem, or MC will just have the side girls? (which are a lot better than any main LI, seriously, Lily, Nicole, god tier, even Sally is more interesting)

yeah another good point... but than i dont know what the starting scene in ep8 is for. This very scene has to mean something important... and that Bella is running away from that library too...

but ok, yeah a childloss could fit too. Maybe she lost a child with james, James has left after that. Bella went crazy about it, began to hallucinate, the boss noticed something is off with her cause she was hallucinating her husband and send her home... than she lost the job and started a new one at B&R. And nobody knows about all of that... only the boss at the library, and thats why Bella runs away from it at the date with the MC.

But anywas, the shizo-theory is the best in my book, and it doesnt really matter what is behind the locked door... childloss would of course be the hardest scenario i can imagine for now...

It's called Being a DIK because that's exactly what DPC is doing. Being a dick to all of us. I also wanted Heather so bad and the freaking texts between her and MC got my hopes up hard. I was hoping that during the breakfast scene, I could run to my room and get my jacket for her right in front of Tommy's face. I'll fight you again, Tommy. Sit down, you beta bitch.
Bro legit I wanted to do the exact same thing with the jacket :KEK: I thought how great it would be if the MC had been wearing his jacket and got up, walked right past Tommy and draped it on Heather's shoulders. I only live to cuck Tommy :Kappa:

I've been pretty convinced of the child theory too because of the stool in particular, but it kind of makes sense that Bella might have turned that room into some kind of weird James shrine or refugium or whatever (I assume that's some kind of technical term I don't know).

I really need to replay Bella's path but I seem to recall from the last time these discussions came up that Jill was surprised to hear from the MC that Bella had locked that door. It's kind of impossible for me to believe that Jill wouldn't know about Bella having a kid that died, and if that was the kid's room, why would she be surprised that Bella is keeping it off limits? It might be more likely that before Bella locked it, it was just a normal room, that Bella has transformed into something more sinister. That is also consistent with what some people believe we've seen under the door, i.e. the boots. There could be a mannequin in there that Bella has set up to dress in James' clothes or something equally crazy.

Also, just as a small thought, I always found it a bit unlikely that the kid's room would be on the ground floor. Usually you'll put your kid's room the furthest from the entry of the house as possible in case an intruder comes in.

Ultimately though none of this accounts for the foot stool so I dunno :WaitWhat:

hm...

i watched the scene again... whoa iam on the shizo-train now too. I watched it over and over again and now iam sure... she is really hallucinating.

her boss sends her home after she heard her talking, and i think its more out of concern than anything else cause Bella could be talking to herself. And there is no reaction to the husband... ok i dont greet people i dont like too, but in this scene there has to be some reaction i think.

And in my job i have to deal with a lot of people with mental issues... some are talking to themself too. And people tend to watch them in a strange way if they do... just like the guy in the scene sitting on the bench.

and than there is the thing that the MC said in ep3 after making out with Bella in the library. "if i had know, i called for help"

yeah fuck me... it fits. Bella got some mental issues. We dont know how she lost her husband, did he just left or is there more to it... but to be left can cause some issues like that easily.

Yeah i will stick to that, iam on the shizo-train for bella now too... and in the locked room she hides maybe a kind of "refugium"
All that is worrisome, more with dev being DPC. He seems to like plot twist going for the worst, putting MC in lose-lose situations. Oh, and he likes MC's LI crispy. All that bad things for MC. So a Bella being coocoo to the point she turned her husband into a imaginary thing after some lost is very possible in a DPC story. A hurt Jill going yandere on us. A Burke forcing Maya and Josy into the menu. All that shit is possible with this dev in some fucked up plot twist. We already know something bad is going to happen if we end with Bella because MC while narrating during the library kiss let us know he regrets it (or something like that). For any man to regret that booty, it must be some very bad shit. :unsure:

ok thats something entirely knew to me i have to admit... is that common in the usa or where?

In my Childhood i was growing up in three different houses, and in every single one of them my room was the first next to the entrance. And i cant recall that anybody else i know with kids has decided to go for the room that is furthest away from the entrance for their kids... it just kinda depend on how the room itself is :D

I think you get that scene if you choose not to tell her about Chad and Troy and you're on her path. There could be other variables as well, but I think that's all it takes.

yeah another good point... but than i dont know what the starting scene in ep8 is for. This very scene has to mean something important... and that Bella is running away from that library too...

but ok, yeah a childloss could fit too. Maybe she lost a child with james, James has left after that.

I'm not completely sold on the schizo theory. I've experienced the loss of a child first hand and know how it can affect some women. Of course, going by DPC's previous work, there is a strong possibility of some mental issues considering the psychotic redhead nurse trying to kill Liam and burning MC's house down in Acting Lessons.

Bro legit I wanted to do the exact same thing with the jacket :KEK: I thought how great it would be if the MC had been wearing his jacket and got up, walked right past Tommy and draped it on Heather's shoulders. I only live to cuck Tommy :Kappa:
Dude same. Ever since he basically invited MC to walk in on his naked girlfriend it's been go time. Then he was dumb enough to try to fight MC after he knows MC literally mollywhopped THE WHOLE ALPHA FRAT and watched Caleb get beat the fuck up by him. Tommy is an idiot plain and simple.

I've been pretty convinced of the child theory too because of the stool in particular, but it kind of makes sense that Bella might have turned that room into some kind of weird James shrine or refugium or whatever (I assume that's some kind of technical term I don't know).

It's not just a foot stool though. There's also a mirror there that's at a child's height. I have a mirror placed in my bathroom at a similar height so my children can see what they're doing when they brush their teeth

This is Jill's reaction to Bella/MC if you haven't been pursuing her. More shock than anything else.

And this is Jill's reaction to Bella/MC while you've also been pursuing her. Quite sad and heartbroken.
