I do wonder why out of nowhere (to me at least) she seems to have fallen for him starting with season 3 (although we already know of her "competition" with Sarah since at least the dorm party).
It's hard to see any potential with her path. Her becoming an influencer and gaining consequent sponsorship could have solved Maya's money situation but like you said her student loan arc is already finished. She only stands out with negative traits. Her insecurities, her jealousy, her obsession. Maybe DPC thought that giving her a new hobby would make her less dull and more confident but what she really needed was a real arc.Her recent questioning and evolution (fashion, social networks) seems to come out of nowhere and is very artificial (and makes Josy appear even more superficial, which doesn't help her).
Only Derek knows about the physical abuse but as of the library planning meeting, Sage, Jill and Bella all know that Patrick is threatening Maya's education funding because she's dating Josy. True, we don't know how much Maya shared but they (especially Jill) could have interpreted what's going on as a form of psychological abuse or "bullying." Yes, Maya's tuition plot is extremely forced overall and glad that's over. All things considered, outside of certain paths, the MG group just doesn't seem that forced imo. DPC could have given no signs whatsoever that they were all interacting and then it would have really seemed forced.
Cammy is also a freshman, that makes constant interaction easier with MC.I do wonder why out of nowhere (to me at least) she seems to have fallen for him starting with season 3 (although we already know of her "competition" with Sarah since at least the dorm party).
Except for their sex scenes they don't seem to have much contact with each other. At least Camila still joins him and his group often and also shares a class. Even during parties their chats seem to be minimum.
Right, I remember it affects her presence at Patrick's. But I was trying to remember why MC told Josy in the first place. If I remember right, it's because he wasn't certain whether to tell Sage or not. On the one hand, Sage deserved to know but on the other hand it was going to hurt her. If I remember right, that's why he considered telling Josy to get her advice.The decision to tell Josy in Ep.8 only affects Sage presence on Patrick heist, which reduces his suspicion by -1. So it's the right decision, which gives MC a better chance of stealing the papers. You can choose whether to tell Sage about Chad and Troy or not.
Mel is so damned hot, She's by far my favorite SG.
Nobody “deserves” anything like that. Thankfully, this is fiction. You can’t have a (decent) story without conflict. Apparently, we also need deep drama in our porn novels. For variety’s sake. Also, many people find pure happy paragon stories lame and boring. So, there you go. DPC (and Jillybean) warned us, we should take them at their word. This ride isn’t going to be for everyone. I agree, however, that getting us to care for characters and then having us watch them suffer, sucks…did Quinn and Ryona really deserve all that? seems over the top ngl
Cathy and Sarah. Also, if we're calling relationships "an on going thing" at minimum, Tara might become another fuckbuddy.How many relationship paths do you think are going to ultimately exist in this game?
I count;
Bella
Bianca
Camila
Cinderella
Jade
Jill
Josy
Lily
Maya
Melanie
Nicole
Nora
Quinn
Riona
Sage
Sally
Zoey
He was shocked by what he saw and detached from reality during training, which Josy noticed and began to ask what was going on, then we have a choice to tell her or not. Josy didn't give a clear answer whether to tell Sage, she said that she wouldn't want to be in his situation at all.Right, I remember it affects her presence at Patrick's.

Maybe even an open/polyamorous relationship path with Sarah.How many relationship paths do you think are going to ultimately exist in this game?

Jill offers the family lawyer's help during the Halloween party. But for now it is actually she and Bella who advise Maya from that point of view. Now in theory the lawyer is needed for the contract Maya signed with her father for the return of money spent on college. But considering that there has been a reconciliation with patrick I would say that it is no longer needed, except if it is important to find out who this lawyer is.Jill offered the use of her family lawyer, I think she'd be smart enough to NOT offer legal advice... as that in and of itself can become a legal issue.
The timelines are often a bit quirky in the game. Sometimes between scenes it's concurrent with the previous one and other times it appears days have passed between what we actually see. I try to use the parties they plan as a rough timeline give or take a few days here and there.
If all I wanted was a bunch of sex scenes, I'd just go to pornhub. Personally the AVN genre is of interest because mainstream media is censored, mainstream media has only recently leaned into sex amongst the drama with tshows like GoT, Shameless, etc. I get that some content shouldn't be exposed to younger people before a certain age, but that doesn't mean people should be ashamed of having a healthy interest in adult topics. So it's nice being able to read these stories, and not censor out the questionable content.Nobody “deserves” anything like that. Thankfully, this is fiction.

The why is because Josy can probably understand why would Chad do something like that, seeing that she in a same sex relationship and hiding it.(and potentially cheated as well)Right, I remember it affects her presence at Patrick's.

Priscila?But considering that there has been a reconciliation with patrick I would say that it is no longer needed, except if it is important to find out who this lawyer is.
I was thinking Cathy. But that seemed more like fun than an actual path. But you're right, DPC can develop it into an actual relationship path pretty easy. She doesn't conflict with anyone besides Jade at the moment.Cathy. Also, if we're calling relationships "an on going thing" at minimum, Tara might become another fuckbuddy.
I mean if you're going to count Jade, why not Cathy? They've both had their share of more intimate discussions with MC beyond just sex.I was thinking Cathy.

I wasn't sure if Tara was a bit of fan service because of the end of Halloween. But she seems to like MC & with her being the first to bridge the gap between the betrayers & the DIKs, things could elevate beyond the Panty Party scene.
Yes, this AVN certainly is the epitome of “came for the porn, stayed for the story”. I just deeply hope that this ends nearly as strong as it started!If all I wanted was a bunch of sex scenes, I'd just go to pornhub.
