All those examples are not LI, thats the point, DPC is not afraid of showing random dicks in bathroom stalls, what he is beyond obvious doing on purpose is avoiding anything related to the LI which makes the contrast with what you pointed out the more obvious. That was the entire point of this discussion from the get go...
If you really think the new branching is anything other than post ep4 Maya & Josy 'branching' minus one random fucking scene, add one LI centric scene instead, you are more optimistic than I am.
There is no way NOW we could avoid Maya and Josy like people cried for months after the reveal and every other LI we reject until the end of the game. Everyone will still be as part of the story as ever before and if DPC sticks to his S1-2 style, there is no way there will be any hint of LI moving on, living their own lives independent of MC's dick, not until the epilogue. I'd like to be wrong, so you can bookmark this post to tell me I was wrong and you told me so!
Sad, because it is pretty much the same, story.
The argument people use, is that it would add more to the characters if we see them getting together with someone else. But somehow, if we see Jill in environment we have not seen it before and see her with her friends, characters who may or may not play a role later on, somehow absolutly add nothing to Jill character.
It's only work if it's some "love story " or sex scene ?!
My statement is clear from day one. if MC running into Sage and her new boyfriend, its not a big deal, we all together they may even kiss, who care. But Why we should see indivudal scene between Sage and Her new boyfriend ? How that would Be diferent than seeing Jill with her friends? What we did not see, and still happened.
If this is about learning and expanding the characters beyond MC, then why its only matter if it's somehow has to be about their relationship toward an another guy or girl ?
I'm probably not as smart as you think I was, because somehow I can't seem to connect the dots. But ,I'm flattered ,that you thought I Am , thx
I didn't mean that now I don't think you are smart anymore, or anything like that, poor choice of words on my part, I apologize for that, I'm just a little butt-hurt that we can't seem to understand each other, its like we type in different languages.
Its not that only sex scenes mater its that those scenes happen to be sexual in nature and again, in my opinion, its purposely evaded. As a main Sage guy I care to know if Sage is a retard that spend 3 years pretending to be in a relationship with a guy she never even kissed, it changes my perspective about her character a bit.
Never was part of any 3letter discussion before and now I understand why everyone avoids them like the plague, people tend to generalize and jump into extreme tribalism.
If I expect to have a more life-like game world, or have a proper rival/villain in the story, I get grouped with people that enjoy sharing their girlfriends somehow
, I swear its like IRL politics, just -100 or 100, nothing inbetween. The only VN I've ever played : Artemis, Chasing Sunsets, Leap of Fate, Being a Dik, Acting Lessons, Intertwined, as you can see I clearly do not look for any fetish other the the fetish of playing a decent story.
The last time I try to make my points clear, can we move on to some dalli_x theorycrafting, this is no fun
