This is the end of Episode 7. As you can see I made 8 Dik choice. and 5 Chick choice.
so I have a well earned Dik Affinity

Now in Episode 8. The season finale, has 2 more Major choice. Can you tell me why I end up as having Neutral permanent affinity, even if I pick both Dik options in episode 8.?
There has been a permanent neutral affinity on the horizon since v0.6.

The problem is DPC screwed over those of us staving off permanent affinity by changing the rules in v0.8.

In v0.6 & 0.7 there were supposed to be 17 major choices before neutral locked in.

In v0.8 he changed it to 15, so you get locked in at the midterm toilet break.

I assume DPC did this to sort it out before the end of season 2, but it's a pita. Now I have to retcon my chick runs, as they will come out neutral atm.

I dislike the permanent affinity, as it reduces player choice. Even goody two-shoes break the rules sometimes and vice versa.

Certainly easier to plan/code the game with locked in affinities though.

it being easier to plan/code could give us at least more impactful choices.

Up until now it’s been “smoke weed on the roof and 8 days later get to fuck a stripper” kinda cause and effect. The affinity system wasn’t really “player choice” because (and this is a common criticism of morality systems in games) you don’t pick what you would do you pick whatever maintains your affinity.

he may as well have had “DIK or chick” button at the start and have a linear narrative from there. Neutrality doesn’t change much and individual affinity choices (largely) mean fuck all. All the big changes in the story occur outside of it.

Affinity in this game (like so many) was rapidly boiling down to an illusion of choice. You picked early what route you wanted and just followed the colour coded choices.

The walkthrough seems to indicate it will rely now on previous choices being a direct cause and effect with future content. That’s much better (theoretically) and should give us better choices without being railroaded to follow a pre-ordained route. I wanna choose what I would do in a given situation and see how it plays out… not be arbitrarily labelled chick/DIK and get a colour coded ending.

My opinion only and NOT to dis Maya, however....

Knowing Lily's story pulls the rug out from any sympathy I had for Maya's college funding situation.


View attachment 1576760
Sex work, of whatever sort, is not for everyone. Lily has the confidence and mental strength to handle being a stripper. Maya REALLY does not. Some people can handle it: Quinn, yes; Sage (if she wanted and needed to, which she doesn't), yes; Camila, Sarah, and Meline, yes; Riona, I'm not sure (she puts up a good face, but she is showing some stress around the matter). Josy might be able to handle it, but never Maya. Just as some are suited to be Doctors, other's Lawyers, and still others taxi drivers, some are suited to sex work. You wouldn't blame a lawyer for not being a doctor - why would you blame Maya for not being able to be a sex worker...And there isn't another "low skill" job out there which will pay for a college education in the USA.

(But Lily is an amazing character!!!)

I've been looking, but I can't seem to find it, you know what are the two songs that play during the Sex with Jill scene, I've been searching for those two musical themes, but I can't identify them, if anyone knows them, give me the names of the artists , or of the musics they are the only 2 musics that I could not locate until now of all the musics that sound in chapter 8
I don't know the name of the 1st Piano Instrumental. But the other 2 songs are Back in my Arms by Tangerine ( sounds like nora jones style song), and I got All I Need by Origami Pigeon.

i don't have the scene of sage ep 8 in the gallery
It got removed by DPC... if you wanna have it you need to download a 0.8.0 version then do this Sage scene then ( if you want to... ) upgrade this to 0.8.2 ( skip 0.8.1 ) It's nothing much so it is not necessarily worth the effort :p

If I download the 0.8.2 version, am I going to be able to use a save from 0.7.2??

It depends on the save point. If you save as is recommended at the end of the episode, then yes, a save at the end of 0.7.2 should work for 0.8.

If you have multiple save points in the middle of episodes, don't be surprised if you get this bullshit when trying to open some of them after a new release:
