You are missing the fallout of the failed dream. The California crew will appear in Episode 9. So DPC will need to explain that part of the story as well.

And the whole idea of working with a team - the point is this is DPC's story. He wants to tell it the way he wants to tell it. This is a creative decision and a team to debate it is a waste of time.
Yeah but you're starting from the assumption that Brett and friends were always meant to be an essential part of the story and so would have to be involved in one way or another. I doubt that's the case. He could've chosen to pare down the extra details and trim some fat, so that we just had what we needed for Zoey's return to make sense. The point of having even just a single other person to bounce ideas off isn't to stop him telling the story he wants to tell, it would just give him the chance to hear another side, and weigh the pros and cons of big time-intensive decisions. I accept that's not going to happen, just saying it didn't have to be this way.

Damn I thought I had to be a chick in order to get Bella, turns out Massive DIK can still have her lol. Sadly Jill is not the same story. Wonder how that would affect the story tbh, Bella having that wild inner child could fit the DIK MC pretty well i feel. Like MC brings out the younger, wilder Bella where as Bella mature the MC up

Yes, Dik MC will be able to have anal sex with Jill, while Chick MC will ask permission to make love on Sundays after watching romantic movies about goblins' love for puppies.

Jill has to give me a deep blowjob in the morning and arrange sex every night with Bianca, Bella or someone else from her friends so that somehow it could be justified that the player is forced to listen 24/7 to her female chatter and whining about feelings, fate and other shit that guys usually ignore.

(y) Thumb up to well made Casiope DIK Walkthrough.

September possible, but most likely october... well the main part of the epiosde will be Halloween, so probably october is the best guess... and i guessed this with the relase of the interlude... August is much to optimisitc and with bug finding and beta testing september is early too.

If Zoey hadn't had a pouty ass, small tits and blue hair like a dumb lesbian from Life is Strange, maybe I could have forgiven 3 months of development for one hour of a tearful story of a stupid cunt who went to San Diego just to spend all the money and come back as a loser and a stupid cunt.
Love you, Pasha :KEK:

Season 2 finished!! Really a good time spent in the company of this game, it's been a long time since a game had made me feel such emotions, I would almost regret the sex scenes so much that the script is excellent !! So for my part I chose the road of Isabella, the only one for whom I had a crush, I hope to see a future route with Quinn or Riona that said for whom I also had big crush.

You'll eventually be locked into a permanent Affinity by the end of Episode 8. If you make 5 or more Major Decisions of each type you'll be stuck with permanent Neutral Affinity. So on a technical level, you can make up to 4 DIK Major Decisions 'safely.'

That said, there's a little more to it. First, when you make the decisions can matter; if you make them all at once, you could easily swing over to (temporary) DIK Affinity, which might screw you over in the short term (e.g. Jill's path has frequent checks to weed out DIKs).

Second, the Major Decisions themselves can potentially have their own consequences. Fighting the jocks in Episode 2, for example, is necessary to fight Caleb in Episode 5 regardless of your Affinity. So you should probably put some thought into how those DIK decisions might come back to haunt you even if there are only a few of them.

Ultimately, it's going to come down to what sort of playthrough you're looking for. So my advice is to not to think of it as simply a 'CHICK' playthrough, but to pick some overall goals and 'style' for the MC, then keep them in mind when facing tough major decisions. Or just have more than one playthrough and cover all the bases. :p
Thank you so much for the in-depth answer!

I definitely plan on trying out a bunch of different playstyles and girl combinations.
