Care to elaborate? I'm curious how you came to this conclusion.

The MC can potentially bang Tybalt's mother, sister and dream girl.

If people who predict banging Heather is going to be possible, the MC can potentially bang Tommy's stepsister and girlfriend. All that's missing would be Tommy's mother, i.e. Josy's stepmom.

I always fight with Troy, he acted like an asshole and deserved what he deserved, I never run away from alphas and fight with Caleb.

That's your choice to make, but if you do it then the MC will explicitly comment by doing so, he's broken the code his father had taught him (when talking with Sage about his fighting skills, iirc)

All other DIKs do run away from Caleb, so if not fighting makes a guy "soy boy", that makes them all "soy boys" by your own standard.

I absolutely cannot understand people who play for CHICK and enjoy it. So many fun moments are missed. And besides that: CHICK MC is some soy boy who runs away from alphas, instead of taking the fight like a man. He is overly polite and too correct, like Steve Rogers. He refuses to go to a bar with Tommy, even though Tommy went to the trouble of making a damn fake ID. CHICK - this is the guy who comforts Steve for no reason, although he has always been an asshole. He's also a damn pro-feminist.

And how else can you forget about such funny moments that characterize the DIK personality more:

And here I fantasized a little, imagined how the Massive CHICK desktop should look like at the end of the second season. In my opinion, it is a bit untrue, so I made some changes:

A lot of good points, but there are two different playstyles for a reason. It impacts who you end up with because not everybody is down with the frat boy bullshit just as Captain Gender Studies isn't exactly gonna drop all the panties. Different strokes. Personally, I enjoyed both paths for different reasons. Now somebody gonna dip in the say for the 10,000 time that neutral is the best because being a fence-sitting, wishy-washy milquetoast is what we should all aspire to. But you know what? Fuck. They are probably right.

I understand and don't judge if someone runs away from Caleb. Because you need to have nerves of steel or be a complete psycho to go against this mountain.

I myself have several runs for Neutral, including Bella, Maya/Josy and even Jill (not everyone knows, but it is possible to pass her for Neutral). Neutral is such a trickster who adapts depending on the situation and is quite interesting to play as.

The MC should be able to practice Jill's song in the free roam you pictured above (once all the intro text is finished). The only way I can think of that the guitar might be clickable but not allow you to practice is if you completely failed to bring Bella around on the MC then told Jill the MC was no good for her back in Episode 4. If you did that, Jill's path might be dead and buried enough that practicing the song is no longer possible. Other than that, all I can think is that you have some sort of glitch and might need to reinstall the game.

Unless I missed something that is the only way to not have it as an optional task. The condition defaults to true and the only way to change it is to flat out say your not her type. The only way to do that is to have a zero score by lunch with Bella. It's a very specific set of steps you have to take to get there.

For all their bitching, Tommy and Heather are still together, so as I see it, the only way you can bang Heather is if Tommy allows it. It's not the same as with Tybalt. Besides Tybalt doesn't even have a girlfriend.

I know that many consider "Being a DIK" a porn game, but I do not. To me, it's an adult game. Look at the affinity choices.

The DIK choices are more about adolescent behavior and the consequences that follow. Let's look at the example of the EP8 ending. How much did those playing on DIK think about their LI while the MC could only think fuck, fuck, fuck because consequences were looming. When you do stupid things, you can't be surprised who gets punished for it. Heather explains it best.

The NEUTRAL ones are actually the ones who have no guts because they don't want to make up their minds. Heather explains it best.

Oops. That hurts.

The weird thing about a CHICK run is that these decisions are usually the adult decisions. I've tried to make DIK decisions many times, but most of them just make no sense to me. Why would the MC hit Troy, the Jocks (Dawe excluded) or Caleb who did nothing to him at all. It just doesn't make any sense. Why would the MC make out with Jade. The trouble is actually bound to happen since we found out she was the Dean's wife. The list is so long. Heather explains it best.

Even Heather wishes so Tommy wasn't quite so DIK.

Please don't get me wrong. Everyone should play the game the way they want.

But this is faulty logic. I would say that Neutral is the most "realistic" affinity. I don't make choices in BaDIK to get any particular affinity, because that would be silly for me. I make choices based on how I myself would act if I were Tremolo, including choices with bad consequences. Because obviously I'm not perfect and somewhere I could have stumbled or lost temper.

For the most part I (i.e. my Tremolo) am a massive DIK, but if the situation calls for it, he might let it slide so as not to cause trouble.

For example, why would I beat Troy or Tybalt just to fit the DIK affinity. For me personally, this choises is a bit silly. Beating Troy makes no sense, he's already been fucked and the damage is done, and releasing frustration can be done in other ways. Beating Tybalt all the more so — MC is already on his bad side and he prep with connections, so it will only turn into something bad.
