I admire your optimism in preparing runs that do not yet exist... (Josy and Maya separately, Bianca, Zoey etc.)

It's better to do it early on instead of having to replay 10-12 episodes (or whenever the option will be available) though. It's a hassle, but the bigger a game gets it gets more annoying having to redo it.

For example I separated my saves early on: Bella route, Sage route, Jill route (that I will also use for Bianca if it's dependent on the Jill route), Maya & Josy (I emphasized on Josy on that route) and Others. But Bianca might be also available on the Others route, because it's the only one we see her boyfriend cheating on her (although MC doesn't know he is Bianca's boyfriend at the time).

for me we really know too little for these routes (assuming they really exist), when there is real content to be found I will think about it

you risk preparing a route doomed to failure (what if Zoey was only reachable under certain conditions? for Bianca do you have to be in the Jill path or could it be a dead end? for Maya and Josy being rejected is better or worse?)

since the time between chapters is unlikely to fall below 6 months, I don't see a problem with doing a special run when the time comes (doing an 8 chapter speed run without minigames takes a couple of hours)

Do you really want to spend 2-3 hours when the new content drops so you can get it instead of playing your ready saves with the new content though?

I prefer doing it beforehand, because we are in waiting anyway and not lose my time when the new content drops.

it's not as if when the new chapter comes out the only thing that matters is that little exclusive content of a new route

if Josy/Maya's run started in the ninth chapter, we'd still be talking about a little content, which even if I play it last (after the content of the other LIs and others) it's not like I'd feel cut off from anything

assuming the dedicated run actually goes well and wasn't a complete waste of time.

In fact, when I think about it, I never managed to establish a three-way relationship with Josy and Maya. What did you have to do to be in a relationship with those two? :unsure:

Everything is decided at the end of episode 4.

Your MC shouldn't be with DIK affinity and must hook up at least once either with Maya or Josy.

1) staying with Josy after the dinner at her house and/or helping Maya with the scavenger hunt
2) having no DIK affinity at the end of chapter four

Oh well, I knew I shouldn't be tempted by Jade!

Jade actually has nothing to do with it, if in the fourth chapter you are in the trouple you automatically blow off your date with Jade

After not that I particularly like them, nothing will replace Bella, Quinn and Reina in my heart

Too bad we can only put two signatures...

Is your Bianca route save ready? :Kappa:

My main save so far contains only Nicole and Nora. MC is Neutral with Chick Status, who helped Jill with the recital. I should be good. :WeSmart:

If you don't take it further at Bella's or help a sick Sage then you still have the option of choosing Jill but she rejects you at the restaurant, that's why I think he must have DIK affinity because you don't get Jill as a choice at all then.

Tbh I never played a 'failed' Jill run, so I might not know the exact details. From what they said (not getting invited to dinner), they seem to at least be missing the picnic though.

My motivation was high back then, but tbh the only run that would fall into that category is probably an Others run with Lily and Riona unlocked? Other than that, it was pretty classic stuff: Sage with and without fuckbuddy, Jill, unlock-scenes-DiK..My main run is so empty though, it should easily be possible to fit in Bianca or Zoey there if necessary. :sneaky:

Your flowchart for Quinn is incorrect on pg208. If Quinn refuses help eps6 when it gets to eps8 'Are you Sage's sex friend?' yes -> 'Accept the threesome' yes -> 'DIK or Neutral Affinity' yes -> 'Threesome with Sage' fails bc Quinn shuts MC down. Quinn refuses your help due to MJ will not allow this chain to progress. Perhaps if you follow it w/o MJ it would work if you didnt have rooftop sex w/her? Not sure there.

Thank you for bringing this oversight to my attention. Indeed, the condition is well specified in my walkthrough but left out in the respective flowcharts of Quinn and Sage. This omission is now rectified in the guide.

I also confirm that the threesome with Quinn and Sage is still proposed if the main character helped Quinn but does not have a relationship with Maya & Josy; or if he has a relationship with Jill but didn't help Quinn. The multiplication of the conditions for this scene turns into a puzzle due to the HOTs vice president's jealousy.

I am disappointed Jill (on the Jill path of course) did not do any goblin for the sex scene.
