You aren't but it could well be that the guy you got the save file from did. In any case, there will be no easy answer from us.
And once you load a save file and progress from the point of save, the problem is not with the save. Save files tainted by a mod normally fail very soon after loading.
can you help me with a save file then? something that is not moded at all, end of episode 9, doesn't even matter what it is, just something so i don't keep going through the crash :)

so how can I make the version that is here on the first page for mac work after that point? it's not giving an error or anything, the game just stops
Look for a way to refresh your game files. Delete and download fresh. You old zip might not be good. Anyway, welcome the the most interesting part of gaming, where you get to explore things like that and figure out what is wrong, because we can only guess, we are not sitting in front of your computer.

True, so the point was that there is no point in discussing legalities here. In his own mind, dpc might atually be thinking of the laws of Sweden. Or something.
zoey vanished to san diego and mentioned that she didnt wanted cross borders to visit mexico.
does make sense to apply swedish laws to the game. :rolleyes:

If they signed any kind of loan, it would have shown up on her credit report. This is what's got me thinking they're not really attached to a loan and dear old dad faked the whole thing. He's paying for their school with loans, but the kids aren't attached to them.
Somewhere in an ideal world, perhaps. But this is unlikely, because Patrick would have to somehow demonstrate the seriousness of his intentions and the grounds that he has for blackmail. For example, if we assume that this is the case and he did not take out any loans, but simply pays for their education out of his pocket, then what could he do if he found out that Maya was with Josy again? His fanaticism and desire to fulfill the vows given to his wife does not correlate with such soft-hearted behavior and fake blackmail. It's one side of the coin.

And the other side... it's too good to be truth. If they find out that all this loan is fake and bullshit it's then the easiest solution to just tell him to fuck off. Do you believe that all this tuition thing and drama, all this Helen part in story which is dragged from the beginning of the game can end just like this? Really? No drama, no dilemmas, no double bottom? I would call it too naive...

He is managing partner. Therefore, it is possible for him not to own the entire company if there is another shareholder.

He WAS the managing partner. In ~ 13-15 years from the moment in the screenshot, he could have taken a higher position or become the owner/co-owner of the company.

Should she think I'm a weirdo? But I theorized about two years ago that Patrick might mistreat Maya. Most people laughed about it, but in EP10 they cried about it.
Wasn't it obvious? Without even knowing what we learned in EP10? Even without physical violence (OK, this cannot be called full-fledged physical violence, and Maya and Derek say that he did NOT BEAT or HIT them, and grabbing her hands is closer to pressure, psychological, through minor physical). We already learned that her father is blackmailing her and threat to take away her tuition and college. And, what's most important he started to behave this way only after he learned about Josy. His attitude to Maya changed cardinally after that. He was rough while raising them, but treated them well.

Fuck... when your own parent blackmail you and threatens to turn your whole life down because of your sexual orientation, especially when you 18+ it's fucking worse than any physical abuse. Psychological abuse is often much more devastating and worse than a physical one. Your own parents are the ones who you supposed to trust (fully!), who is supposed to support you. Not being able to trust your parents and just having a thought that they may blackmail you, threaten you or something like that is trully horrible shit.

It's not so scary anymore when you're older, you're on your feet, you've studied and found a job. But when your adult life has just begun and you are literally threatened to ruin your entire future, not to mention being forced to give up the present that you have planned for yourself... It's damn bad.

If he found out Maya was with Josy again he could cancel the loan payments to the school, thinking that Maya would think she's in debt and could not take out more loans.

But as her credit score indicates - she's not in debt. So Patrick obviously didn't count on her checking into that.

He is from and lives in Sweden. I would expect him to know more about Swedish law than US, which can, of course, vary from state to state. It might not work like that in Sweden, which is after all, a monarchy. Regardless, we really don't know what he knows do we?

So, all his threatment is fake and based on the assumption that Maya will never check her credit history, never go to the bank and try to take out a loan, etc. etc. If so, this will be the most miserable place in this story and what is called "bad writing". I wouldn't bet on it.
What about Derek? Why he did the same thing to him? Just w/o threatments. He really trust him. What's the sense?

It can't end so easily and without hard moral choices or background.

p.s. what the sense then of allowing player to fail the mission of getting the contract?

While there could be more it but it seems at this point a big part of the loan problem is that Maya didn't read it. At least Maya did have sense enough to check her credit score I don't think this is bad writing

because for example if Derek had been treated differently this would have created more doubt in Maya? so what difference does it make to Derek? absolutely none. what reason would Derek ever have for not trusting his father? it seems to me that there is no contrast between the 2

do you seriously think that Patrick's plan was designed to keep Maya bound for years and years? protact blackmail throughout college, at least 5 years and beyond?

true undying love is for theories

p.s. the sense of failing the mission of retrieving the documents is one of many checkpoints that will measure which relationship can move forward and which cannot. they will certainly not begin 2 separate stories from here on out

One more time. All that history and background was built to just simply tell Patrick to fuck off? And on the contrary failing the mission is to prevent Maya to tell him to fuck off? What will change in her life then?, I mean significantly.
Such simple solution would be a quite miserable excuse to drag this tuition story for 10 episodes, show us the Baileys family from inside just to end it like this. Absolute nonsense. As much as I don't like the far fetched theories and exaggerations in any way, but such outcome is just too cheap and too simple way to get out of this shit. It will feel like the wasted time and investment. Not buying it.

Each MG got it's own background and problems to solve. Some of this started in the very first episodes, some later. Something is still brewing and not revealed. Some of things are common and shared across all branches, like Quinn's part with prostitution, drug dealing, Stephen participation, etc. Why the Maya's part have to end so easy? Nope, no way.

question for people that frequent other dik forums/discords/etc:

I know people in here call jill a goblin and no one could even be bothered to post her poll pics until a couple of days passed. But, what do they think of her in other sites?

:unsure: :unsure: :unsure:
so according to you every plot has to absolutely drag on until the last chapter? it is not permissible for Maya to have another plot (better than none anyway) outside of the loan? the relationship with her father, her mother's situation is not enough, Maya has to spend another 6 chapters thinking her way out of a con (because however you put it Patrick's is a con).

the documents will be another fruitless wait, as was talking to Burke, precisely because they are non-canon, I don't think Maya will be given her own bad ending (considering how averagely she is hated it would become perhaps among the most viewed endings in the game...)

it is also not certain that in any case Jill's lawyer will be able to read them as early as the next chapter, assuming she is reliable and not a random "Priscilla"

we have to invent an astral conjunction of planets for Maya to actually be bound to a loan, as if the fact that she wasn't somehow rectifies her situation. if the loan is Patrick's, the money is Patrick's, Maya doesn't have her tuition paid anyway, no more nightmare of bankruptcy, but her story at BR would still be over (let's cut the nonsense about people paying out of generosity for Maya's enrollment, Jill, whose financial situation doesn't exactly seem that bright, won't do it, and no one else will). at that point there will HAVE TO be a confrontation with her father, and that will close this very long cycle.

at which point by the last season they will probably be affixing the problems common to all the runs

I haven't told that the Maya's loan story must not end and have to be dragged till the end of the game. I told (or tried to) that it won't end so simple and lighthearted as you think. We are at the point that shit started to hit the vent and this is one of pieces.

Well, I'm even glad that some people feel the relief and hoping for such easy exit from this situation. Do you expect the same for the Quinn & Stephen? Vinny & Riona? Even if something ends so fast and easy it doesn't mean that it won't left the consequences, sometimes very sour.

This is possible so that Patrick has not included Maya and/or Derek in his will, if at all. But Maya and Derek are first-degree relatives of Patrick and so they will definitely receive a compulsory share of the inheritance.

It's also logical, because taking over and selling a pledge always involves costs and no company wants additional costs.

I agree with you about Maya, because she's introverted. But it's not difficult for Derek because he's very good at selling himself. You can sell anything, you just have to follow one rule. The salesperson sells himself to the customer first and then the product.
Seriously, would you buy Derek?

would it be an "easy exit" for Maya to discover that she has been deceived all this time by jeopardizing her relationship with Josy for a scam? I am sure was one of her main aspirations making an idiot of herself in front of everyone
would being forced to confront her father be a walk in the park? after she has pretty much failed to do so all her life--a confrontation in which somehow Helen will have to play a part as well.
I am sure she will celebrate when she finds out.:oops:

in what, on the other hand, would it be a more complicated and painful end to set up a blackmail, which must make a mockery of all realism, and which must at that point be confronted in a court of law? really suffered...
