Quinn will get an ending, as you say there's too much development with her to brush her aside or deny us any kind of closure about her and the MC, it just remains to be seen how that's going to work without her having an actual 'path'. I'll remain confused as to why DPC didn't make the Others path the Quinn path until we get a good idea what that path even entails, 'Others' obviously implies girls other than the 'main' girls, but what will the Others ending look like? Is it going to splinter into a bunch of different choices for mini-endings depending on which Other girl you choose, i.e. Quinn/Lily/Nicole, or is it going to be a big generic ending where the MC buys the strip club with secret inheritance money and just bangs every girl?I dunno.
There are no rules set in stone.
While we have no idea what is in store for Zoey, I don’t want to accept that a path with Quinn is simply not an option.
All the side girls other than Quinn don’t really have a relationship with mc. Even Jade’s deal is just to get back at her husband and also to help her feel good. It’s not like she has strong feelings for the mc.
But with Quinn it’s different.
She’s growing to like the mc more and more, and other than the main LI’s she the only face that’s shown at the end of episode 8 after the big choice.
Quinn is the first character that the mc gets sexual with (not counting Cammy since Quinn is controlling that scene).
And even other characters are questioning what is going on with the two (Sage hints that Quinn likes the mc when he stays with the HOTs), and everyone comments on the mc/Quinn Rooster post at the HOTs party.
I’ll be surprised if there ends up being no Quinn ending.
I don’t imagine there will be heaps of stories based on the girl you choose; I’m more inclined to believe there’s going to be a main storyline that progresses no matter who the mc is with, but splinter scenes will occur (and select renders will be used) based on the mc’s girl.Quinn will get an ending, as you say there's too much development with her to brush her aside or deny us any kind of closure about her and the MC, it just remains to be seen how that's going to work without her having an actual 'path'.

The inclusion of Zoey into the mix, after the path locks, also throws a wrench into things as well. I've read plenty of plausible and cool theories here about how Zoey is gonna spice things up with the MC and whatever girl(s) he chooses, and I'm of the opinion that she is gonna be an LI, but how will she get her ending? She doesn't have a path. Will she be another Other girl, or will you be able to choose her instead of your main LI and splinter off into her ending? That kind of defeats the purpose of the path lock, but what other choice is there? Either the paths with the main girls are locked and everyone else goes into the Others path for a small slice of the rest of the game, or the paths aren't actually locked and the MC can swerve and choose another girl (Quinn/Zoey most likely) as the 'main story' progresses.
My fear is that the Others path will fail to live up to the potential of the characters it involves and becomes a mess of unconnected stories and sex scenes with a generic ending. Characters like Quinn, Lily, Nicole, Jade, Rio, each could have their own dedicated games about them, let alone not even having their own endings in this one. How are you going to do Quinn's story and for example Nicole's story justice in a single path without their own dedicated endings? That would be hard enough, but you're also juggling 4 main LI paths with 5 girls that each have to have their own developments and an equal amount of time or your fans are gonna get pissy, then for good measure you throw in the Zoey wild card for each path which is like some kind of blue-haired narrative grenade
I pray DPC has the biggest and best storyboard in the history of erotic games to handle all this, because ever since the paths got 'locked', I've worried about the logistics. The math doesn't add up to a satisfying ending for some of our girls. But again, I'm very confident Quinn will get an ending because of her popularity and the fact that DPC enjoys writing her, but the quality of the endings we get are still up in the air.
Good to know you can't trust anyone on DPC's discord server.
And also, don't use same nicknames here and there.. And never ever mention f95Good to know you can't trust anyone on DPC's discord server.
DPC has written it himself. There is a main story and some side stories. The side stories will cross the main story.I don’t imagine there will be heaps of stories based on the girl you choose; I’m more inclined to believe there’s going to be a main storyline that progresses no matter who the mc is with, but splinter scenes will occur (and select renders will be used) based on the mc’s girl.
This is similar to how the game is already progressing. If the mc was on Josy’s path at the end of Episode 7, they were holding hands as they entered the gym, if not on her path, they just walked in together. Also while in the gym in episode 8, things got a lot more spicy if the mc was on her path.
Meeting Nicole at the bar went the same way. The story progressed the same but was a lot more fun if the mc was more than friends with Nicole.
We’ll get more info about each main character regardless of whether the mc is on their path, but more intimate renders will be selectively used when appropriate.
The mc gets dragged into M&J, as well as Jill and Sage’s, problems regardless of his relationship with them, but the scenes just evolve a little depending on paths (I can’t think of any Bella drama that the mc can get imbroiled into if he’s not on her path).
To me this formula works well, it means DPC doesn’t have to create 5 different stories (one for each LI), that you only get to witness if you’re on their path.
Probably the biggest example contrary to this was when the mc had to choose where to stay after leaving Maya. Notice nothing that significantly divergent has happened like that since. DPC may have learnt his lesson from that.
For the record, the behind the scenes terminology used when the mc made his big decision at the end of E8 was “branch” (JillBranch etc.).
First rule of f95, never talk about f95What have you done?
You mentioned it.
Not just the walkthrough (that was just an easily accessible visual example), all DPCs communications, from the pre-release thread to now, even in his polls etc. He's made a hard distinction between main girls and side girls throughout development.I'm well aware of the walkthroughs, but what does being a "main girl" mean? We tend to assume it means they are the ones with an endgame, but that's just a guess on our part. Episode 8 was the first time we saw the main girls do something mechanically that someone like Quinn couldn't (though she comes close): the MC can choose them at the crossroad... DPC's walkthroughs frequently omit important information about future choices, after all.
Anything is possible, the question is what's likely. This scenario seems like pure conjecture to me.My point is that it's entirely possible the crossroad is the reason the main girls are "main." In which case it could be that by the time we reach Season 4 there will be a new selection of girls that are possible end choices; if so, there's every reason to think girls like Quinn and Zoey could be on that list. I'm not saying it's guaranteed to happen, just that it's a logical possibility we shouldn't overlook simply because Quinn isn't listed as a "main" girl.
I strongly disagree, I didn't find it sexually suggestive at all? The only titillating element was they were half naked. The bulk of the conversation was Bella getting pissed at Jill dredging up things she doesn't want to talk about, and Jill getting annoyed at Bella being rude & dismissive. Not one thing in that conversation suggested there had been any sexual intimacy between them to me?To be fair, the the Episode 5 conversation that is clearly intended to be sexually suggestive. IMHO, trying that hard to be suggestive indicates DPC is trying to mislead us and the eventual explanation will be asexual (at least between Jill and Bella). But that take is just as theoretical as saying the two had an affair. I think the evidence supports it, but we can't prove either at this time.
I don’t want to accept that a path with Quinn is simply not an option... I’ll be surprised if there ends up being no Quinn ending.
Where as I would be pleasantly surprised if Quinn did get a full-blown main girl ending. I've enjoyed her gradually letting her guard down if the MC plays his cards right. Quinn is a great character, I just don't think she'll get an ending on par with the main girls.'Others' obviously implies girls other than the 'main' girls, but what will the Others ending look like? Is it going to splinter into a bunch of different choices for mini-endings depending on which Other girl you choose, i.e. Quinn/Lily/Nicole, or is it going to be a big generic ending where the MC buys the strip club with secret inheritance money and just bangs every girl?
the only threesome I want is Sage/Jade/MC.
The incest rules are about banging your own mom or sister, not about banging a mom and her adopted daughter.
Well not to crush your hopes, but adopted family members are still banned under the Patreon terms. They assess it based on the 'family dynamic'. If they addressed each other as family members (mom, sis etc.) then no bonking allowed. Obviously roleplay is different, non-family can call Jade whatever and vice versa.he got away with rather overt Jade/MC m/s sexy time language (and Sage isn't blood daughter), so there is still hope. If Jade has a kink for her "son" then maybe she has a kink for her "daughter" too... Maybe someone esle can "daughter substitute" in for Sage. How about Sally?
No, you can't avoid it, DPC messes with his old code too much which screws up Ren'Pys dialogue tracking. The only way to make it less painful is to go into options > dialogue and turn on skip unseen dialogue. That will let you skip through stuff you've seen, which Ren'Py lost track of. You need to be careful though, you can easily end up rushing through stuff you really hadn't seen before.Is there a way to install version 8.x without loosing the list of dialogues already seen? Since you have to download the whole game again each episode, you loose the ability to do re-run and skip only the dialogues already seen.
Hooray, my birthday! Hey... wait a minute. My birthday isn't for another 2 years. YOU BASTARD!I heard February 29

Bella and MC in the tree house?Neil when he sees MC arrive at the door with Bella:
Jill would be interesting too because we can see her reaction to how poor people live. She might regret her blasé comments about her rich lifestyle. Anyway, you are sure to get some fantastic sympathy sex out of it. it would be great if DPC wrote in a situation where the LI must spend the night at MC's home after dinner and she has to sleep in his bedroom.
If i could i would have given this guy two likes.Anti-war sentiments are strong in Russia. Ordinary Russians themselves are shocked by Putin and the fact that he wants to unleash a nuclear war. I went to an anti-war meeting, the police arrested many, but I was lucky .
Slowing down the Russian Army and sanctions have greatly undermined the spirit of the elite that many oligarchs oppose the war. But I hope that Putin will be overthrown by his inner circle.
No war!
Sage is life!
Sage is love!

Whilst you're correct in defining the technical distinction between MGs and SGs (the former being involved with MC in the main story regardless of romantic choices, the latter not), I don't agree with your conclusions about what this means for relationships and endings with the various girls, particularly for Quinn.Not just the walkthrough (that was just an easily accessible visual example), all DPCs communications, from the pre-release thread to now, even in his polls etc. He's made a hard distinction between main girls and side girls throughout development.
E8 wasn't the first time there were material differences in game between main & side girls. The MGs are still the only girls who have RP points for instance. Quinn & all the other SGs miss out, presumably because there's no planned 'relationship' with them. Perhaps more importantly, the MC is heavily involved with the MGs personal lives, regardless of whether he's pursuing them romantically or not. While it's possible for the MC to have next to nothing to do with Quinn & the other SGs should you choose. The difference has seemed pretty stark to me throughout the game.
