People actually care about Tommy?
View attachment 2035657
Screw that guy I'd usurp the DIK presidency from him and Tanya/Heather are fair game.
I don't blame you, but considering how much time MC can spend in the Pink Rose (as well as money), and the way the women there talk to each other, I think Tania legitimately likes Tommy, or else she'd have been on MC's happy stick by now. Hell, I'm looking forward to taking the bartender for a spin. She knows what she's in for.

The bartender already knows what's waiting for her. And she want it.

Season 3 isn't out yet.

Not playing season 1-2 you won't have any idea who the characters are or how their relationships developed, so it seems odd to me to even consider just skipping it. I mean, what's the point of playing season 3 then?

Neutral people stay out of everything and do not take a stand. This will inevitably lead to problems in real life because this neutral person is not taken seriously by anyone and is therefore meaningless.

It will also likely lead to a DIK or a CHICK continuing to vote neutral to put the affiliation into perspective. As I understand it in EP8, if the affinity is NEUTRAL, the MC can decide if he prefers CHICK or DIK. The only problem is that it is no longer the player's choice because he gets either CHICK OR DIK as an option even though he is NEUTRAL.

Ergo, if the MC has a NEUTRAL affinity, he will likely become a follower instead of deciding for himself if he wants to make a NEUTRAL decision.

Explanation.

DIK: DIK and NEUTRAL (The options are set).
CHICK: CHICK and NEUTRAL (The options are set)
NEUTRAL: NEUTRAL and DIK or CHICK (The options are not set because the MC gets either CHICK or DIK as an additional option, but not both. So the MC (player) can get a choice he doesn't want at all and must inevitably choose the lesser evil NEUTRAL).

This is not desirable for me.

My MC actually only defeats Dawe, Chad and Tommy because he has a real reason to. He is defending himself.
That doesn't sound about right. The way I see it, the affinity system would work is this:
Minor choises will still be up to us and we will similarly choose between DIK and CHICK options. Major choices will no longer be in our power and will automatically be given to us based on permanent affinity. And in this sense the affinities are no different.

But even if there is a system like you described, I don't see how Neutral is any different. According to you, if you're Neutral, you'll have Neutral and DIK/CHICK options depending on your gradient, and if you're DIK/CHICK, you'll have DIK/CHICK and Neutral options... But changing the order of addends doesn't change the sum. And being DIK/CHICK you can also find yourself in a situation where you don't like both options and have to choose the lesser evil.
Either I don't understand you, or nothing changes in this equation.

About the very concept of "neutral person." In the case of Being a DIK, I don't mean neutral like Switzerland (which, by the way, is taken very seriously) or Geralt of Rivia. I mean rarely do people act like a crazy aggressive party monster 100% of the time (DIK) or a "very mature" empathic snivel (CHICK). The former can slack off, fall apart, and the latter can get angry and punish the abuser, for example. Beware of a silent dog and still water, as they say. Would such a person be taken less seriously because of that? My experience shows that no.
So Neutral Tremolo is simply a more versatile character, not a follower or undecided.

What DPC once wrote. We as players should play the MC as we would decide for ourselves. You write so that the MC (tremolo) is fast in combat. But that is your decision as a player. The same is true for the value judgments.

The balance has been created by DPC. The MC is way too mature for his age, which has come through his childhood experiences and deprivations. You can read all about it in the Zoey flashback of EP3 and in Interlude it is even confirmed. The MC only drops this trait of his when he is drunk or with characters where he feels comfortable. What does Tommy say in EP8. Only a drunk MC is a good MC. What does the MC say to Jill in EP5? That it's nice to be a jerk sometimes.
In a way, yes, but we have a situation like in many modern RPGs. We can choose some behavioral patterns and stick to a certain line, but we have a character with a predetermined character and problems that he gets into regardless of our behavioral choices. For example, Tremolo is involved in frat war regardless of affinity, which led to a lot of problems.
