more or less
on my first pt i was neutral/dik, on the second i was neutral/chick (because i wanted jill) so yeah, i missed a lot but sometimes i didnt know that some actions would affect so much and cockbloking that content
Since Jill blocked Nicole's threesome with Sandy she lost a lot of points with me

Just look, I have a sig of Nicole, that's show how important is she to me.

yeah, i know but i was very surprised with quinn's route
somehow it felt more natural than some others like jill or bella
And that is why Quinn is more suitable to you... easy huh ?! :LOL: We are not the same we all have our preferences... we are not wired the same way... and that is why you have a ton of bitc....I mean ladies to chase down ! :KEK:
BTW : I like how it goes between Quinn and MC too... definitely something else than the usual CHICK flicks... it's not better or worse just different ! ;)

That's why I said "manipulates."

Quinn: Come on, Jill, it'll be good for you. Get you out into the 'real world,' learn how to drink, learn how to party.

Jill: I don't know about those last two, but even Bianca says I'm too sheltered for my own good.

Quinn: Just sign right here, and put down your direct deposit information here, and I can deduct your monthly dues without you having to worry about it!
Jill's parents would go bonkers :ROFLMAO:

So, knowing what we know now does anyone think the interaction between Stephen/Jade and Chad was a little odd after the fight with the MC?

They were awfully mercenary with their daughters long term boyfriend. Unless Jill is just powerful enough to force their hand… or I suppose they might not know he was dating her all that time. Sage implies her mother knew. She mutters under her breath “was mom right” when talking about Chad being gay with the MC which indicates she discusses her relationship with her. Not guaranteed but it would be odd they didn’t know.

Thing is, DPC could have ironed out some ambiguity if Stephen/Jade had covered for Chad. If they were shown to have turned a blind eye to things he and his frat did. It’s an easy way to explain why Chad stuck with Sage. We’ve debated why he kept up the relationship with Sage when he was cold with her as far back as the flashback of the DIKs forming.

If Chad had an actual reason to feign a relationship with Sage (namely using her for her family connections and as a beard) and in turn a reason to hide his infidelity from her (namely to hide his sexuality and not piss her and her family off) his behaviour would make a lick of sense. As it stands he comes across like he doesn’t give a shit about her, gets nothing from being with her and lies for funsies.

Really love this game !

And i got to say beside creating sublime renders (animations) and a enganging story i think the greatest asset of DPC is to envoke the perfect feelings in every scene thanks to his musical taste.

This guy knows music and how to use it !

I played many triple A titles in my days and i've never seen such a perfection regarding the usage of music to enlarge a story driven game ... an absolute masterpiece imo.

Thank you for this ...

I think you are overthinking this lol
Chad probably doesnt know who sage parents are. I mean, it took 8 episodes for us to know and not a single clue was given until the clifhanger. There is a big probability that jade and Stephen doesnt know that Chad dates their daughter. Either way, if they know Chad doesnt had such a big punishment, he only got depromoted from being president.
Also I dont think Chad wanted a relationship with sage because of her parents "power", I think its more because of the traditions and history that alphas and hots have, they are always talking about them. Chad being alphas president and sage being hots president it kinda becomes natural their relationship, like princes and princesses that got married to join their kingdoms

Right now we're at the halfway point, and side-girl chases MAYBE have a decent amount of content with the girl they want?
Post edit: missed word
I'm not sure of the halfway point, as DPC already made forced choices for committed relationship with the main girls (Sage, Jill, Bella, Josy, Maya) were MC promised to be faithful. Moreover, permanent affinity would also make it difficult to make desired choices now.
I feel like the game is shifting too quick from being a fun VN game towards another forced manipulated tragedy sequel (Acting Lessons when we had to make final choices). I love it as a carefree fun party game, Hell Week saga and funny Rooster game. These final decisions should have been kept for the various endings not halfway through. I'd not want another real life tragedy sequel if it's on DPC's very nature.

With Nicole, for example I really like the dynamics between her and the MC since you can see that at least for she the MC is special (He is diferent) and does she not treat anyone the way she treats him.

I have my other route just for her but it's weird that the MC only tells Jade that he's in a relationship and not other girls so DPC is hiding mines along the way.
Well, for Jade in particular I'm sure it was so DPC could wring a little extra drama when we finally get to helping Maya in Episode 9. If the MC had waited, Jade would be denied the opportunity to throw verbal barbs and icy glares at our no-longer-cheating-with-her MC. For the same reason, the MC had to hold off telling Jill he was pursuing someone else to make sure we could still crush her hopes and dreams the hard way (and possible break her heart to boot).

I'm really not sure why Maya and Josy were left out, though. Perhaps DPC wants to twist the knife with them by having Sage announce the MC as her boyfriend (since the prime Jade drama is off the table in that scenario). But that feels like a stretch since it would only apply on Sage's branch. I suppose it's possible opting out of the throuple will be a big, tear-filled scene and DPC thought it was too much to squeeze into the end of Episode 8, but that seems a little too simplistic for him.

We'll just have to wait and see. :(


the first 2 points I would take for granted

what doesn't fit so well is the fact that at the beginning Sage seems to have a problem with her family because of their anaffectivity (Jade doesn't seem to have a problem and I'm not referring to MC... ), while afterwards the reason changes completely and it's all related to her desire to prove she can do it on her own, not to need their help all the time
first her parents are the problem, then Sage is the problem

and you're right, a daughter so grateful it's hard to understand why she would want to avoid Burke at the Preps party (I don't think she's referring to her natural father)

I think DPC changed something in the course of Sage's characterization, I have no idea for what reason.
I don't think he changed Sage's backstory, I think he saw people had begun to put the pieces together and went a little too far to throw us off the scent. Sage's description of her father's activity, and her rationale for hiding from him, make no sense for Burke. So mission accomplished in that I stopped believing she was his daughter, but it definitely feels like a cheat. Bad form, DPC.


You are either not a programmer or not attempting the math.
He is branching. In order to give every path the attention it deserves, he just made his work 5x harder with this chapter. Those who want a Quinn path, if they influence him, which they probably won't, would add a 6th. This does not count side complications. Look at the time for this single update. Multiply that x 3-5 to do each subsequent episode. Not happening.

As I said. I will be handing the tissues out when the end credits happen in episode 10. I will save some for you.
Peace
I realize I'm probably talking to a wall, but Episode 8 just did everything you said was impossible. You can play through the episode pursuing only one of the LIs right now; if you're a hardcore CHICK, you won't even be able to score with the side girls (except maybe for paying Sandy). Yet each branch gets its own unique content (though Sage's is short and includes no lewds for CHICKs) and the game has plenty of shared material, too. And what do you know, there was even time to work in a Quinn path, too.

It's a miracle. :rolleyes:


After the big reveal I personally think he is adopted. The skin is most likely a bad fake tan that Sally calls him out on, so he seems healthy and well bred, a status thing maybe. And then there is the talk in the shower about him coming from a life of poverty. Unless the Burke's are new money it wouldn't make much sense for him to have a past like that if he is their biological son.
I do think Tybalt is adopted, but the Burkes certainly feel like new money to me. Jade explicitly mentions how Stephen was out earning even more money during her heart to heart with the MC in Episode 4. That's usually the distinction between new money and old (which is inherited without having to do any work). It would also fit with Rusty expecting to take precedence over Tybalt in the Episode 5 flashback, or the fact that Burke isn't one of the college founders.

(It would also have been a classic hook to force Jill into a marriage with Tybalt, but it looks like that opportunity may have gone by the wayside. Too bad, so sad.)


Yep, one of the best clucks with her. Side note, I got the impression turtle Jill was caught being frisky with Bianca, not sex but something. Following the whole "proper" story and the her saying "Remember that time your father caught us..." and Jill abruptly changing the topic. I could be quoting it wrong and maybe it's just my imagination running wild.
Yeah, no, I assumed that as well. Originally thought it was drinking, since that's what they were initially talking about, but yeah, I assumed the same. Experimentation I guess
Really? A girl so much as mentions a past event with Jill and everyone assumes it's sexual? You all have dirty minds. :p

I didn't get a sexual vibe from that particular incident. As I've said before, Jill's pronounced insecurity about sex is hard to square with her fooling around with her BFFs. I thought it was one of the few (only?) times when Jill caught her parent's ire the same way Lana did, and she doesn't like remembering it.

We know the Royces take appearances very seriously and put a lot of expectations on Jill; that's why it was important for Bianca to help her loosen up at times. But it stands to reason that getting caught drinking stolen booze might be more than a casual grounding, too.


Anyone tell me about this new update ..a short review, thanks in advance !
Sure, you can read the tl;dr at the bottom of my review. If you want a little more detail, you can read the few paragraphs at the top. And if that's still not enough, rest assured there's plenty more inside the spoilers!

I don't know, i loved that game i played it 6 times with different options and i have 6 different saves but i loaded one some days ago and i just played a bit and... i did not finished it.
There is almost a week that i started the update and i cant go on.
Seems like something is broken, maybe it took too long and the mood is gone .
