While I absolutely would have appreciated most things more than a cancer diagnosis, I think I'd still prefer cancer over finding out there's an impending crotch goblin about to enter the world. At least with the former I'm only dealing with my own life.

However, all things considered, yes - this would be an excellent bait & switch by DPC after all this time. The biggest negative I see is this: Why would a guy piss on a pregnancy test? To set up a prank and freak someone out? Who do we know that's the biggest joker? Derek.
Derek excluded, why would a man piss on a pregnancy test? :unsure: :unsure:

Someone should recreate the Starfire simping for Dick as Sage & Tremolo


View attachment 1976819
Thought it was a weird choice at first, but, given the textos she sends you after you choose her, I think it could be pretty fitting.

Damn, girl never had a real relationship, doesn't know what to do, so yeah, could really see her, like you said, simping hard for the MC (and being jealous as hell)

can you be in a relationship with just Josy?
You can give her all the attention in that throuple thing, and ignore Maya, there will be slight variations to their interactions as you'll play the episodes. Just choose Josy everytime you can, pick her side (with Becky, as much as she's a dumbass, pick Josy's side, 'remember' her and don't mock her, she'll look at you smiling, otherwise she'll look away embarassed and Maya will giggle instead), most important choice I think is to stay with her when she and Maya leave the prep party. You'll see her wearing the sweater you gave her at the beginning after that...

On friendship path, I don't know if something's possible, you can still pick her side from time to time, but it won't be the same. And her scenes are depressing as hell...

I suppose there will be possible solo routes in the future, but I wonder at what cost.

QUESTION: Should a MC that has friendzoned Maya & Josy get a 2nd chance to get in that relationship, ala EP7 Sage? :unsure:
Only if the couple breaks up in my opinion, then second chance with either Josy or Maya separately. I think once there's any doubt in something (as refusing the option would count as doubt) as unconventional as a throuple then it won't work.

impossible to answer...

in theory, but it is pure theory should have priority for "route only" those who are outside the trouple and have expressed a preference to Derek.

but prorpio because of Sage's precedent and the fact that we are in the middle of the game it seems to me difficult that in case of a breakup of the couple (which I believe happens anyway) there is not a chance for everyone (if anything, with proposals destined to fail because of affinity or some specific choices

Bets on how chill will Maya and Josy take the breakup next episode when you tell them you are a picnic aficionado, or that the stripper's child deserves a role model?

Since i love drama, I hope its running-mascara crying and vows of revenge, but I feel most LIs will take it chill, maybe a few sad renders off screen(outside of MC pov). Probably not even Friend-Jill will make a big deal out of it, Destiny GF Jill is an entirely different beast...Jonathan revenge sex tape

Totally depends on whether you admitted to Derek if you're still interested in Maya or Josy during EP5 at the mansion party. Haven't seen any Maya dialogue but I said I was still interested in Josy then there are some specific choices you can make plus there are hints in every playthrough:

Yeah, I think that there's a chance for a solo Josy relationship, eventually. It just seems like there's a lot of development there, even after choosing to not try for the poly relationship. As for a solo with Maya? I don't think so?

Is at any point that the MC is Bisexual?
nah, MC gets a pic of Derek's dick on accident, and he reacts negative towards it. There are examples of women being bisexual or other males just simply being gay. But as far as I know there is no proof or choice to engage in said bisexual perference

Went that friendship route only once, on my DIK playthrough, figured Josy wouldn't mind but Maya would freak out by what I was doing, so didn't even bother to try. But those Josy scenes, damn, she was in pain, she really is in love with the MC, but her feelings are so tangled with Maya's situation she doesn't know what to do...

Maybe someone already did this, but, I went through all the songs of the MG moments I could find, thanks to the channel of Tremolo, damn great work he did, (and still does) to look for patterns, since it's DPC and all...

(not in random order, I may have mixed some, but they're in order of Episodes)

Josy themes
-----------
Windswept
Lonely
Mayday
Everything about you
The new school
You're easy to love

Maya themes
-----------
Three's a crowd
Black box
Ambient dark
Taking inspiration
Come
So easy
Finally arrived

Throuple themes
---------------
Spring in Russia
Just peachy
Run to you
You're my destiny
Romantic song (kinda)
Dark moloko
Skeleton keys
Good remembrance
Jazzy sunshine

Bella themes
------------
All of the pieces
Butterflies
Exotic charm
Run Run Runnin
You ain't gonna get away
Take the road
Ribbon of Gold

Jill themes
-----------
Fly free
I got all I need
The summer song
Autumn hope
Luv
Let's runaway
Every little bit
One last time
All we have is now
Back in my arms

Sage themes
-----------
The sound of summer
Doubt no more
Merry bay
Optimistic
Inspiring acoustic guitar (self-explanatory)
In the morning light
Never far away
Your time will come

Quinn themes
------------
Cosmos
Oblivion
Time to rise
A beautiful syndrome
Riding on moonlight

Riona
-----
Reaching Halo
Ten days sailing
Starfire

The MJ ones are divided, cause you have themes for the throuple (Josy was kinda lost in that until probably Ep6), but interesting to note the patterns for their 'individual paths'. For Maya, you see the angst, how the MC manages to inspire her, then she pretty much is a butterfly who's about to hatch from its cocoon, and manages to do with the MC in the end. With Josy, you see the turmoil, the fear of loneliness, but how when reunited with the MC she finds purpose in him, how she just loves him, clearly.

I think there's a clear path for solo Maya, as much as for Josy, cause, like in Ep8, she was alone with the MC when she was dancing (except for bro wingman Jacob, ever present when it's important) and fooling around, she was free, alcohol helped, but she took charge more.

Then there's the throuple thing themes, who are not as clear, to me, and to me it fits the situation, they don't know what they're doing. It'll be an option for sure in the end, but I have a feeling it'll be a lot of work to keep it going, and I'm sure there will be a breakup in the next episodes. There was no scene about choosing the throuple or rejecting it, after all.

And the rest... Bella ones are a bit confusing, to me, but it fits with her character, tough to read and understand, she wants it, but then wants to run away... Jill, it's all about pure romance, the perfect dates, the knight in shining armor, destiny... and Sage ? I interpret it as a girl who's been through major changes and is trying to learn what is a real relationship, fits so well with what she says if you choose her in the end...

Other than that, just looking at the themes of Quinn (she became so fucking vulnerable in Ep8), can't wait to see what's coming in Ep9, her themes are literally about 'hope'... Riona had 3 (well, 4, when she was chilling listening to drum&bass), Lily had 2 but shared the last one with Nicole, their theme at the Pink Rose.

Sorry for the crazy long post.

small clarification: as the first image predates Derek's question, so technically it's not a sign of anything, it's a damn (to me) technical moment to let us know it's not over

Really nice sum up.
I'm a sucker for good music during the scenes just because it gives them an extra boost. And DPC is 1 of the devs who just is mastering it. Hits the spot every single time. It makes the game so much better.
Some songs you just catch you at the first playthrough, others you have to listen more closely and when you hear the lyrics it all connects.
Damn now i'm all hyped for Ep 9 again. Just had made peace with the possible mid to late october release :p

Yeah, music in everything creates a mood, and DPC damn well knows how to.

And yeah, that Ep9 can't come soon enough, but in my case, I still need to fill my save file 'calendar', so a couple more playthrough are required hahaha (and, I love Eternum and Artemis, and both are coming in soon, right before Ep9, at least there's that)

Agreed. I know I've been listening to Tremolo BaDIK playlist for a while now, I'm just addicted to these songs... and the feels that comes with it. Love Quinn's themes, they're banging differently, especially after playing her scenes, Josy hits the feels hard, Sage too for that matter.

I subscribed to BaDIK playlists on SoundCloud and Spotify, for some reason most of the songs are not available in it.
