Haven't played it, what's wrong with it?
Between the bugs it's a half decent story, lots of LI's, regular updates, a somewhat restricting affinity system, and it seems it's more of an evolving story then a story being worked out. Not really bad but also not really great but can be entertaining nevertheless. Not one i would recommend as a must-have-played. Badik much better for certain ;)

Any idea what the hell is that castle behind the wall?

Ice Queen fortress?
DPC mansion?
White Castle?

That's DPC's house. He could afford something like that by Episode 4.


These last couple of weeks have been a constant fight for me between catching up on the forum and falling behind at work, then catching up at work and falling behind in the forum. Something better give by Friday, or else I'll have to look for new employment. After all, a man's gotta have priorities.


Me to my clients when the Interlude drops:

So the Interlude will be out in ~24 hours (probably closer to 34); it will be interesting to see which side of the scales will tip.

Will all the haters back down, or will team Zoey be left high and dry?

:unsure:

Remember, it’s only a 60 minute prologue to the next episode, so don’t expect to be fully immersed and have your socks blown off. It’s just setting the stage (there’s probably next to no replayability).

The only way I’ll be disappointed is if this is just a side story and Zoey doesn’t even come back as a character in episode 9. I don’t see that happening though, since we see Neil greeting her in the episode 8 epilogue.

The worst part is after this 60 minute start to episode 9, we all gotta wait like 5 months for the rest of the episode! :eek:

Madam something... or just Madam, don't really remember but her! ;)
Talk about a terrible reward. Doesn't help you can't even get her scenes without Plan B with minigames off.

She might not drop by in person until Episode 10, depending on how much plot DPC decides to drop on the next few days. We already know the start of Episode 9 is gonna be a complete shitshow.

except the part where it's literally the front of the school

No, it’s DPC’s house like I said. He needed ramparts to defend against the Maya and Madame haters. If you try to storm the walls, he dumps boiling lube on you from the parapets.

Three guesses as to the redhead lurking in the moat.

Nothing wrong with it, I've had Xena one when I was 12. Not bodypillow, just a regular one (but hey, that's Xena :BootyTime: )
it's xena, you were its bodypillow :D

I hope we get a scene of zoey talking to neil about fuckface and why she's back, not just the san diego flashback

what a waste of $10
The madam scenes are hard to get and barely worth it but it will all pay off when she takes off her mask In the last chapter and it is revealed that he's been fucking his mom Lynette, who didn't really die in childbirth but instead became a sex worker. She did like roses, after all. :oops::censored::cry::sick:

Wow what a great novel.
Does anyone know whether Rusty always turns to plan B with mini games off?

As lipe2410 mentioned, you just need to keep your reputation with the DIKs up and not choose to work at the Pink Rose in Episode 7 after accepting the VIP pass in Episode 6.

Unfortunately, the game doesn't actually tell you anything about DIK reputation points (with are distinct from both DIK Status and DIK Affinity), so you'll need to consult a walkthrough if you want to save Rusty's wheels. Alternatively, I made a spreadsheet to help track strategies for the mansion repair. It was intended for the mini-game, but I did add a tab to handle repairs with mini-games off.


So the Interlude will be out in ~24 hours (probably closer to 34); it will be interesting to see which side of the scales will tip.

I'll put my money on "edge:" no real change. Zoey's fans will point to her cool character and touching backstory while her detractors will point to the the lack of anything else. Wash, rinse, and escalate for the next 5+ months. :cry:

As you say, the Interlude is very short. Unless DPC defies expectations and we get to see Zoey interact with the main cast I don't see how it can really address the concerns of people like myself who want the @#$%# crossroads resolved before we move on to the next bit. Likewise, unless DPC completely screws the pooch, I don't see how the Interlude can dampen the enthusiasm of people eager for full-on Zoey.

Personally, I'm hoping the Interlude can justify the attention. An hour isn't all that much playtime, but it's a hell of a lot for a flashback. If DPC is going to spend that kind of time, I'm hoping the gameplay will be smooth and enjoyable - especially since I don't expect much replayability.

I guess I'll find out soon enough.

At this rate we'll probably have Elder Scrolls 6 before the final season of BAD. Oh well, at least we're getting an interlude about a girl that no one cares about.
not if they keep putting out crap like StarField and the last Fallout. How many bugs did that game have in it when it was released. I'd rather play BAD then play any game that Todd Howard is involved in right now. And that's saying a lot considering I've been playing Elders Scroll games for a long time and I can't wait for 6 to come out.
