Usually the MC is the only decent guy in history. Or worse the only guy. Or the story makes it so that other guys don't see the same girls too much.

Do not despair, the story takes more and more space in this type of game, and I hope that soon the porn part will be incidental.

It reminds me of Eva Kiss who is going to reboot a character from ORS to make him a decent guy. So in the game we won't only have Ian as a good guy, and the rest a bunch of bastards or weirdo.
I'm a fan of Eva Kiss and used to follow ORS, but I disagreed with her on re-writing that particular character. He was only a side character and served as a good reflection on the MC Lena.

I'm also opposed to the trope of every single side character has to be a potential sex partner. I cringe everytime the cry goes up to make a sex scene for the Cafeteria Girl or the Gym Receptionist, just to give two examples from BaDIK

If you don´t know how to write an attractive MC... how would you be able to write a competent rival? :ROFLMAO:
Aboiut BaDIK, it´s not the case. Tremolo has some fun and witty dialogues, so DPC knows how to write a good character. I think that cartoonish rivals are a convention of the genre, like magic cocks and female bi eager to engage in a threesome everywhere. And also, laziness. Again, it´s easier to write a Tybalt than a professor Moriarty.
It's not entirely what you're talking about, so apologies & bear with me.
I recommend trying Power Vaccuum (https://f95zone.to/threads/power-vacuum-chapter-9-what-if-vol-1-3-what-why-games.36240/)
It's a bit silly & totally tongue-in-cheek, but you're up against your grandfather (who wants to screw your mom & sisters)
but what he does to try to achieve this is basically all the stupid things in the earlier VNs on this site that your MC would try & do. So it's kinda fun to have that as an adversary.

I know it's not the 'competent rival' you mentioned (you mean someone relatively normal like your MC?),
but it is a lot of fun if you don't take it too seriously.

I kept thinking about it, reading all the discussions here, and this seemed (roughly) where to mention it. (sorry to interrupt your discussion though) :oops:

Hey, that's on Quinn. Do you really think Troy was going to protect the MC from her??



No, in Episode 3 Sage will ask the MC point blank if he's only interested in teaching her guitar. If he says yes, she kicks him out and will not offer the MC a room during the Maya/Josy crisis. And that's AFTER the MC overheard Sage say she might have let Chad stay with her if he was willing to do his boyfriend duties, so it's not like I'm pulling the implication out of thin air.

Basically, if Sage can hide behind gameplay as a defense, why can't Maya?



Ah, I see. When Maya wants to apologize for her behavior in public, it's discussion rape. When she wants to be discrete and handle the matter at hand before apologizing, she's selfish.

Like I said, sometimes I think you carry it too far. There's no question Maya can be self-centered, but that's not unique to her.



Look, I think DPC is a little too gunshy on the matter as well. But Bella's flashback lasts what, half an hour at most?
Yes, it is discussion rape when the other person tells you REPEATEDLY that they do not want to discuss it! It's forcing a conversation on another person, especially when that other person is engaged in a classroom activity.

Jesus, you guys will go to any length to defend Maya, stretching points way out of proportion and just won't admit to the simple fact, Maya is a selfish character!

She fucks anyone who comes along if they have a dick. Like you really lack critical thought don't you? WhY dOn'T yOu eMpHaThIsE wItH aRiEtH? Your lack of critical throught is fucking astonishing. She fucks anyone with a pulse. There is no nuance there, she's just a cheating slut. And the fact that you want to equate her situation to maya, josy and sage and pretend they are the same is pathetic. Grow a brain.
I'm not pretending to equate her situation, you did It and brought her not me, its just the disrespectful language and the double standards.

You're not the only one 'understanding of the context empath' who call girls he doesn't like psychos and sluts. Because you only care of the context when it suits your views. Like Maya does, but I think that is intended in the game because she is Maya the feminist and DPC likes to throw little darts to feminism and point out the inconsistencies.

Because that's fake empathy, like the people who cares for animal rights only if they're cute puppies. You care for women, you don't call them sluts.

And of course people who don't agree with you are idiots yeah yeah whatever man

Uhmm, I think I just said she can be selfish.

Anyway, my point is the MC has been deliberately avoiding Maya for the last day. The ONLY place she can have the conversation is in public. Even in Gender Studies, she tried to discuss it with him quietly at first and the MC stonewalled her by dragging KRJ into it.

You can certainly argue Maya is only desperate to apologize because she wants to stop feeling guilty or because she wants him to be at her beck and call again. But I can still argue she's desperate because she knows she really hurt him and wants to make amends. You're the one who insists this has to be black and white.

My next short essay dedicated to the five main fears before the 3rd season.

The choice at the end of season 2 will not affect anythingDespite the fact that DPC himself said in the official guide to the game that the choice would be of great importance, this will turn out to be an exaggeration. As before, there will be one main plot in which all the girls will be involved. The change will only affect the fact that some sex scenes with selected girls will be blocked. I would venture to assume that girls from the category of Others will be available on the path of the main girls, which will make this category meaningless.
The story will become much darker. Someone will die.DPC will decide to make the game more story-driven, dramatically adding drama. As a result, we will get the development of the plot in the spirit of AOA, in which the plot moves so fast that there is not enough time for the normal development of the characters. DPC will begin to dramatize the story unnecessarily and break the characters as it was in the previous game. One of the main plot twists will be the death of one of the heroes. As before, it will be difficult for him to find an adequate justification for dramatic plot twists.
DPC will continue to stretch the plot.In season 3, a Halloween party will happen only at the end of the season. Episode 9 we will deal with Zoey's unexpected visit and earn money for the party. At 10 and 11 episods we will prepare for party and at the same time go on dates with our girls. DPC as before will give the plot in small portions.
DPC will not cope with the stress associated with the release of the game on three platforms at onceDue to the release of the game on three platforms at once, the load will increase, and with it stress. He will spend more time testing the game for Steam and GOG. In the future, he will release the game for several more digital stores. The number of patrons will grow, he will not be able to properly allocate time for testing and development and will burn out. The development time will increase.
DPC will decide to earn extra money on its game by releasing a merchandise or NFTThe number of patrons will grow. Many of them will ask to release branded fraternity jackets from the game. One of his patrons will turn out to be an entrepreneur and will be ready to help with this. Seeing the popularity of tokens, DPC will also decide to release pixel art based on characters from the game and sell separately on the digital platform. It will produce jackets, tokens, mugs and so on. DPC will not have time to develop the game. He will release small and rare updates, most of the time doing business on his game.

It's not a double standard, it's nuance, it's context. How are you are incapable of wrapping your brain around how their situations are different? Seriously learn to think critically.

i agree
i dont want to trigger maya fanboys but maya is annoying as hell after the "big revelation"
in the beginning she was a nice fresh colleague who helps MC and there was a nice friendship/relationship between her and MC but after the maya/josie revelation and knowing that the evil religious father was kinda of blackmailing her, her story just went to shit. she is basically crying all the time about the tuition and how her dad is so evil and dont let her be a massive lesbian :cry: :cry: aww come on, cant you study for 3 years, get a job and then be a full metal lesbian and scissor every girl she want?
her arc is only about the tuition, nothing more, she dont even care about josie, she only want to get rid of her father

it is not a matter of guilt (but Maya is not exempt from that in that episode as well, even what happens before the electrocution matters), but a matter of opportunity

after that episode Maya could really send MC away? in my opinion no, so hospitality is more a compensation than an altruistic gesture at a certain point

Yes, and you are the one trying to compare that classroom scene with the aftermath of sexual assault and kidnapping. Interrupting a classroom is an appropriate time but, apologizing during a noisy party before once again imposing on the MC just isn't discreet? When will she get around to bringing that up, the following week. Or maybe she could text it to him 'Whoops, Sorry my bad'

And do you even read what you write? Maya is desperate, Maya wants to stop feeling guilty, Maya wants to make amends. Maya Maya Maya! It's a fucking meme and you still can't see it!

1- It doesn't matter if we still can date with others or not. It's not a thing to be feared of

2- I don't think that will happen because there are lots of characters in the game and every episode we see little bit of them

3- I think it will happen in ep9 he hyped it so much in last episode

4- I'm sure he's happy with that kind of stress

5- He can sell NFT and stuff it will just make his game more popular


So there's nothing to worry about buddy.

You didnt play it well then. Zoey is the Girl he tells Isabella about at the caffeteria. When he sits with Isabella, to tell her about how was his childhood. He tells her about this girl he fell in love when he was in High School, after being bullied, etc. And that she was his first love, the first one he had sex with, and she left the town to pursue her surfing career. So now she comes back.
oh okok yeah i replayed the ep not the whole story lmao yeah now i remember thanks

That's a good point, and I admit it is a thorny issue. On the one hand I do understand how people feel uncomfortable with the situation. But my main concern is the quality of AVN's. I want to see us come to a place where there are many well written AVN's available, where the market isn't flooded with simplistic or shallow stories. NTR hysteria is a major stumbling block to reaching that goal.
So is the obsession with incest being in all the games.

Dude, you gotta accept when people are trying to meet you halfway in these discussions.

Maya can be an annoying, whiny, pain in the ass. She has been selfish, and no one is denying this.

But she's not a monster either. She's a young woman whose dad has smothered her growth such that she isn't equipped to stand on her own two feet, or at least she doesn't think she is.

The whole tasering and stuff, while I joked about it earlier, Quinn and her cohort would have played it off as typical. They would have convinced her it was no big deal and Maya would have gone back to worrying about her own bullshit.

As far as she was concerned, all her eggs were in the HOTs free tuition basket, her life was basically on hold until she solved this big issue, and so her own problems are all she can think about.

She keeps doing this, thinking whatever it is, is her only chance, and like the mc says to her in the closing scene of episode 8, "I feel I've heard you say that before, Maya."

So yeah, she needs to calm the fuck down, think her options through carefully instead of these hairbrained schemes (and I can't see the Burkes are gonna hand her a silver bullet either).

So Maya has made a lot of mistakes in this story, and her inability to solve her own issues gets on some people's nerves, like really badly. But other people see her as someone who needs a break in life.

Every character in the game is flawed, and that's great, it's what makes them interesting and provides fodder for discussion. Unfortunately the discussions are typical so hyperbolic that people lose sight of what they are discussing:

Maya Fan: "I like Maya, she has a cute ass."​
Maya Detractor: "You're fucked in the head, Maya is a fucking hypocrite of the highest order, she's draining the mc's blood to make money to fund her lesbian lifestyle, she is literally the worst fucking character in the history of AVNs!"​
Maya Fan: "That's bullshit, she is so sweet and innocent, nothing is her fault, her dad raped her as a child and now Quinn wants to rape her too! She needs the mc to help her because she hasn't developed the common sense of a 3 year old yet. It's not fair, poor Maya, I hope she'll suck my dick one day!"​
Maya Detractor: "OMG You simpering fuckhead! No one in their right mind would want to help such a succubus! Maya just uses people and then casts them away once she has sucked the marrow from their bones!"​
Maya Fan: "Fuck you! I hope you and your family die in a burning car crash. Maya is more important to me than any living human being (except my mom, I need her to pay the bills to keep the basement lights on and my porn streaming)! I bet you're a Quinn fan, oh yeah I know you are! She is the epitome of evil, by liking her, you are basically selling your soul to the devil!"​
Quinn Fan: "What the fuck are you smoking? Quinn had a hard upbringing. Her dad's dead in case you didn't know, she has to sell drugs and pimp girls out, how else is she gonna make it through college. Grow a fucking brain!"​
Maya Detractor: "Haha Maya Simp hasn't got a brain!"​
Quinn Fan: "You're a fucking moron too! Who do you fucking like? Bella? You wouldn't have the package to satisfy her!"​
Maya Detractor: "WTF! You wanna screw Quinn, she looks like a guy!"​
Felice: "I like the Madame, she has a cute ass."​
Maya Fan / Maya Detractor / Quinn Fan: "Fuck off!"​

Anyway, back to flawed characters, here's a list I made earlier of all the girls and their flaws.

that would be incest dude ! o_O
There's no marriage and no direct blood relationship with her, there's no incest here. Loosely defined, incest is having sex with a family member. She's definitely not.
Yes, they're nice. I wouldn't quite call them "fuck me" though:

View attachment 1548874


Still can't compete.
To quote Banky Edwards, "Hey! I always notice that bored look in their eyes."
If I remember correctly, in hot only two people have escaped from MC’s dick so far.:-D
Somebody else pointed out 3 and said Heather, Elena, and Arieth. Somebody else brought up Ashley (which you may argue is a 4th). I contend that Heather loses on a technicality if you joined them in the hot tub at the prep mansion party. She was on the receiving end of MC's discharge. She's been marked by the mighty meat torpedo.

Unlike the primary 3, though, Ashley has also wiggled on MC's face, and has admitted wanting to fuck him.
is the girl who met Tremolo's dad at the end of latest ep a new character? I played this two time i still dont know who it is either this or im just a dumbass
Option B, my friend. ;) It's Zoey, his first love.
In Bella's flashback, her husband does not kiss her

Realism....
He also never actually touches her. The Sixth Sense.
