The interlude was originally supposed to be Chapter 9, so I'd imagine the actual Chapter 9 won't be as long as the others since the interlude content has been 'cut'.
I haven't seen anything where he even mentioned working on ep9 and I don't think he's going to start until the Interlude launchesfrom the end of November to the end of July is 8 months, which is already 2 months longer than the normal cycle.
part of the time has been occupied by the launches on GOG and STEAM, but I think we're talking about a few weeks (2-3).
now we have to see how much the interlude is extra work or how much is at least partially an anticipation of the ninth chapter
for me it should have been the normal flashback of the beginning of the episode, on steroids to justify the autonomous release
July remains an optimistic estimate but in my opinion not impossible
Episode 7 was a little over 5 months in development, and that was only 1 episode ago. If the Interlude is released in early February a late July release for Episode 9 is, as Felice said, optimistic but possible.??? With a February release of the much hated Interlude how could you even conceive of a July release for ep9? That would mean a flat 5 months of development, something DPC hasn't been able to pull off in a very long time. Even an August release would be astonishing!
I hope there is only one Interlude. I'm guessing S3 is going to be Autumn (Halloween, Thanksgiving), and S4 is going to be Winter (Xmas, MAYBE New Year?) and I'm thinking S4 is when we finally meet specific LI's parents (since we're already meeting Sage's)The interlude was originally supposed to be Chapter 9, so I'd imagine the actual Chapter 9 won't be as long as the others since the interlude content has been 'cut'.
Didn't DPC said he wanted to make the episodes a bit shorter so the wait wouldn't be that long?Episode 7 was a little over 5 months in development, and that was only 1 episode ago.

Really, it depends on how big DPC wants the Interlude and Episode 9 to be.
He may have said that but I've never seen it. And I would be surprised if the Patrons would be happy with an ep9 that was significantly shorter than earlier episodes.Didn't DPC said he wanted to make the episodes a bit shorter so the wait wouldn't be that long?
The interlude is known to be pretty short and just to speed up the story behind Zoey. So that won't take that long.
Because of the interlude he won't have to pry the story of Zoey in the upcoming episodes.
the latest updates are rather vague, he has clearly only spoken about the launches on the platforms, not even on the interlude has he been unbalanced so much, impossible to say where he stands on that either.I haven't seen anything where he even mentioned working on ep9 and I don't think he's going to start until the Interlude launches
Maybe, but I doubt it. Especially if my theory plays out that part of the need for the interlude is to cover the fact that he couldn't deliver two full updates this year.the latest updates are rather vague, he has clearly only spoken about the launches on the platforms, not even on the interlude has he been unbalanced so much, impossible to say where he stands on that either.
but my point was that the month, month and a half spent on the interlude could discount part of the time of the ninth chapter by being "narratively" a piece of it

Indeed, I though that Quinn would reject the main character when we refuse to help her, but she just doesn't care. So for the threesome to occur, he must either be committed to the girl or ignore her: she won't accept the main character to both hangout with her and with Jill. This proves on the one hand that for Quinn, sex is not related to feelings; and on the other hand, that she can be as jealous as Isabella.Actually, you can get the Sage/Quinn threesome even if you've ignored the hell out of Quinn. You need to be on Sage's path (either as a fuck buddy or someone who hooked up with her in Episode 7), and you cannot have CHICK Affinity, but that's it. Quinn will make a comment about how she doesn't even like the MC but she'll still agree.
As an amusing anecdote, due to the way permanent Neutral Affinity works it's possible to miss this scene because you have not yet made enough CHICK major decisions.
the run with Quinn and Jill was one I was planning, having the right affinity was not prohibitive, and I was counting on the fact that as a story they never crossed paths.Indeed, I though that Quinn would reject the main character when we refuse to help her, but she just doesn't care.

I regret, however, that we don't know more about Quinn's animosity towards Jill, whereas the game's creator usually takes care to detail each other's opinions.
