Nicole looking good on that date.
Others path gonna be insane boys.

Trust me, I'm aware of the the vixens. I didn't mention Zoey as a way to pick on her. I mentioned her because, while I think she's a lesser threat to our chosen girl(s) than the crossroads was, she is at least *a* threat. She has a history with the MC, and for better or worse we spent a decent amount of time with her in the Interlude. Nora is a buxom one-night stand, and the vixens are complete cyphers. No one is going to think twice picking their waifu over that kind of temptation. Sure, we'll all see what happens when the MC fools around with the latest eye candy, but I doubt many people will go for them on their main saves.I understand that you don't like Zoey or the interlude, but if you leave a little aside both things even so, the episode is called "Vixens", that is, if there was no Zoey as a temptation, there they are, it's not for the "others" route, there you have Nora, who I don't think is exclusive of the "others" route either...
And as for the "choice", I still think that the choice was unnatural and forced, it has no strength, it languishes under its own weight...
I understand that a large player base (especially Jill's fans) will not even notice if there are temptations along the way, they will just walk right on by. But I have also seen in this thread pages and pages about Carolyn (not you Carolyn ) and we are talking about a character of one or two images, where in one she is in a threesome with two men.Trust me, I'm aware of the the vixens.

I agree with you about the crossroads being badly handled; I've ranted about that for about 8 months now. But however ham-fisted it was, we did make a choice. DPC needs to treat that choice with gravitas and respect - at least for a while - if the eventual temptations are going to carry any weight. Otherwise it will just reinforce how fake the choice was.
I thought he was just picking her up. lol
I wish I could agree, but I'm not confident about it. Adding options only enhances playability if I care to see the outcome. If the additional options themselves are just weak, or worse yet, if none of the options give me what I'm actually looking for, all you've done is make the game a much bigger pain in the ass to play.I understand that a large player base (especially Jill's fans) will not even notice if there are temptations along the way, they will just walk right on by.

The story itself is going to weaken? most likely yes, but at the same time it will generate much more playability, since at least to me (and I do not think I'm the only one) the different combinations of LI and temptations lend themselves to see the results (where it is clear that in principle we know the outcome hehehe).
And on the other hand, if we pass without looking at the temptations, there is still the work of convincing our LI that nothing is happening, building that loyalty is as hard as falling into all the temptations.
The next one is the first chapter of the season, so I don't expect any major plot breakthroughs, a bit like in the fifth.Please! The question is if we'll hit 11,000 pages before Episode 9.
I want us to have the time to enjoy whatever the MC chose before DPC starts lobbing hand grenades.
Maya and Josy have been stuck on hold for a solid season, and the MC still hadn't quite committed to them when Maya's latest tuition crisis kicked off (again). We supposedly have a big conversation with Bella to clear the air, yet we have absolutely no idea if her husband could show up at any moment. Sage finally agrees to date the MC and suddenly we're panicking over Jade being her mother for reasons that may or may not exist. Jill... well, in theory everything is fine with Jill, but it's unclear how much of the brain damage she suffered from in the blackmail subplot will bleed into the rest of her branch. And of course there's Zoey, lurking in the water like a comely, blue-haired shark.
It just feels like too much at the start of a new season. We finally picked a girl after 8 episodes (or declined to pick for those 'Others' fans). We deserve a chance to sample the fruits of our labors before DPC renders them down into his trademark extra sticky jam. As long as we get that respite, I think I'll be okay with whatever drama besets us in the latter half of the season. But if we skip straight to the drama then I'm really not sure I'll make it to Season 4. You can only chase the carrot for so long before you either get a bite or just give up.
Honestly, that's one of my big fears. Temptation sounds great on paper, but it's not going to work well. We just picked our favorite girl; the idea we're going to cheat on her right out of the gate is misguided. We picked our favorite for a reason, and while Zoey is nice she's only going to be a viable threat for a minority of players (especially since she's had much less screen time). The only way we're going to give in to temptation is if we spend enough time with our girl to grow complacent... which then risks boring the audience who now have to skip 'better' content for the sake of the endgame.
That's not to say that effective temptation is impossible, but I don't think it can be *THE* theme of the season. It needs to be kept small scale, a side-dish that looks to spice up the main branches without completely supplanting them. Sure, if we keep pigging out on the sides we'll ruin our appetite, but in moderate doses everything should be fine, right?
Alas, that sort of subtlety isn't exactly DPC's calling card, so I haven't been feeling too enthusiastic since we learned about Zoey's much heralded return.![]()
Casmyr !! THIS IS NOT A SLUTTY NURSE OUTFIT.
Damn, Nicole looks cute with glasses.
How much time was left until Halloween by EP8's end? In just a couple of days Bella was worried because she hadn't seen Jill yet, there's no way she'll rest before she sees her.I hope there will at least be the clarification between Jill and Bella, even if it's a story about few players.
But if Jill keeps avoiding her, it's not like Bella can do much.How much time was left until Halloween by EP8's end? In just a couple of days Bella was worried because she hadn't seen Jill yet, there's no way she'll rest before she sees her.
Unless DPC comes up with some bullshit excuse for Jill to avoid Bella and MC for weeks, there's no way some kind of confrontation won't happen in EP9.
I posted it first, it's not my fault nobody asked for the rest of it.
I hope we get the option to knock Nichole (Casmyr !! THIS IS NOT A SLUTTY NURSE OUTFIT.![]()
Although... that outfit is still pretty sexy and it's... mommy Nicole. So it's fiiiine.![]()
What's up with heir hair sticking up top as if it's some sort of wig extension? lmao
But it was intentional isn't, to misdirect usshitty Quality
Watch Bella turn every stone until she finds herBut if Jill keeps avoiding her, it's not like Bella can do much.
Besides MC might be busy organising the party.
However I'm quite optimistic that at least this point should be closed for better or worse.
I wish it could be like that. In reality Bella really risks a lot, with Jill she honestly behaves like a bad friend, and we still have to find out what happened to her husbandWatch Bella turn every stone until she finds her
