Short question: Is there any consequence for not telling Bianca that Matty cheated on her? Is she still open for a cheatpath?

Yes. You can also flirt with her all the same on Bella path, despite the fact she's still with her boyfriend.

From what I know she will cheat on him with you on bella path when she is still with him. Also on every path she will do the cucumber game with you at the Christmas party. It leads me to believe that she will have a path on others route and a path where you cheat on your girl at some point. I wish she was a Main girl. I like her more than Jill.

I don't see that as a big thing.
We know that Jill's parents bought the house 19 years ago from someone that needed to sell (presumably Lynette's dad).
They didn't know that person - they found out from Bianca's dad, who Jill's dad worked with.

So:
--- Lynette grew up in the house.
--- 19 years ago Lynette's dad sold the house and moved with Lynette to the hotel to renovate.
--- Jill's parents bought the house.
------ There isn't any indication that Jill's parents knew Lynette's parents. In fact, there is the opposite. Jill's dad doesn't say that he bought the house from a friend or even someone he knew, just that Bianca's dad told him about the house being up for sale and being a good deal. So, you could argue that Bianca's dad knew Lynette's family, but I don't see that Jill's dad did.
--- Jill grew up in the house.

I don't doubt that DPC will stir some drama out of this, but I don't see how it could be anything significant.
But the game shows the two pictures over each other for a reason, so there is something there.

At the bare minimum, it’s where MC’s mom grew up. That can be important enough for some people. The MC hasn’t had much of his mother before her diary. Connecting with where she grew up could be meaningful to him.
What could really be interesting is if she mentions (in her diary) that she hid or left something on the property that MC could find (like a time capsule or another diary or personal item).

I hope it will be in January now, just for this big faggot with a donor badge, shut the fuck up.

Yes, we all hope it'll come out in January, but you're gonna be disappointed, and at that point, one of us will be happy, and the other will be pleasantly surprised.

 

[saynotoNTR]

My guess is that Ep 12 will end on James coming back.
He's definitely coming back at some point.

I wish James would return, but I feel like DPC got the timing of his return wrong. Bringing James back in EP.12 is too late for any impact on the plot. In EP.12, Bella will most likely drop an 'L-Bomb' on the MC, thus burying all the fears she has about moving forward with someone she's hopelessly in love with (MC). James returning at the end of EP.12 would mean he'd automatically lose – zero chance of him having any chance with Bella.

The scenario would be different if James returned at the end of EP.8. In that case, it would also be bad timing, and Bella would hardly choose the MC over James since she have many uncertainties about a romance with the MC. This would mean an automatic loss for the MC at the end of EP.8, just as EP.12 would be an automatic loss for James.

The right timing was for James to return at the end of EP.11 – the final scene should have been James ringing the doorbell and Bella answering with a shocked expression. This would allow both the MC and James to have fair chances in EP.12, as Bella would be confused and wouldn't have said the 'L-Bomb' yet.

The MC could then make things easier by mentioning Zoey's return and that he'd like to rekindle what he had with Zoey (for those who choose Zoey over Bella), while the MC, who remained faithful to Bella and intended to have something lasting with her, would show himself as a bigger man, seeing himself as an intruder in James and Bella's relationship, leaving the scene so Bella wouldn't have to choose between him or James.

Obviously, with the MC 'out of the picture', Bella realizes she doesn't want James back in her life because he's not the one she loves, but the MC. When I say 'with the MC out of the picture' I'm not saying Bella should go back to James and then change her mind after a few weeks (no NTR, please). I'm referring to the MC letting Bella move on with her life, showing understanding of the situation. DPC would give the MC an awesome development, it would be a contrast to how the MC behaved when he found out about Josy and Maya (total snowflake) and it would also make Bella's declaration of love more impactful.

 

[glaslow]

I really don't think there will be a happy ending for the bella path. It starts off with adultery and she is basically grooming the MC considering the massive age Gap. She even acts motherly towards the MC. Plus even in the relationship she never really opens up about much of her past. She is still a giant question mark this far into the game. She is basically cheating like Jade only difference is a Missing Husband vs a bad marriage. I just doubt a happy ending on her path. It just seems doomed to fail from the start in my eyes.

 

[robrize2169]

the only reason to have James return is to find out why he left in the first place. but the guy has been gone for 3 years and now halfway to 4 years. Bella moved on when she got into a relationship with the mc. James would only be drama on the Bella LI path. the rest of the paths, would be no big deal. Bella might or not take him back. definately would like to know the reason for the split, but it should be coming on her path anyway as she and the mc grow closer.

 

[Vega101]

Maya/Josy route would be one of them, whichever did not get the I Love You or spoon sleep after the Bella panty party, breaking up with the throuple.
For example, if you told Maya I Love You or spooned her then Josy would leave the relationship since she is now feeling like the lesser part of the three-way relationship.
They would make up and get back together in a future Episode, but the M/J route has built up this particular bit of drama.

Oh no, the M+J scene at the end of 11, was that the burning house scene, like in Acting Lessons? Only instead of a fire, we say "ILY" to the one we choose? Damn, the threesome ended and I still haven't figured it out.

Not sure what cliffhanger could happen in the Sage or Jill routes, those are pretty solid right now, but DPC can manufacture something.

I don't think Jill and I are okay. Her family rejected Tremolo at dinner because he's poor. It'll all end unless he suddenly meets his grandfather.
And he might meet him at the music concert. I completely understood the point of that event: all sorts of sponsors will show up, like at the snob party. And there we'll get to meet the bigwigs.
Or Bianca will introduce me to my grandfather. Or Cindy. Or Rusty.
There are plenty of options; just wait until 2027 and you'll find out.

 

[Hahn1900]

I used the multi mod in the op for the whole game and didn't have any issues.

That was not what Zenomod meant...

to be precise. DPCs adds those mod-checks with new updates so the savegames from before are screwed until the mod is updated.

Using a mod after a release is not the issue, its an issue in the upcoming releases and this thread always blows up after a release "WÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄH game is stuck after this scene, what can i do?" and its always, ALWAYS because of mods, with no exception.

 

[maxthruster]

I... don't think you know what grooming actually is.

Who ever you tell i love you to Josy and Maya and they say it back should be who you get in ep12, the sofa scene right after Josy and Maya talk pretty much confirm it coming

perfect loving couple

poor choice of a word but still she is a teacher he is a student. It isn't a relationship that started in a good place. She is also still legally married. I am just saying the relationship has a ton of red flags and issues. No way it ends happily.

Ai Sage is a terrible actress, she reacts before the MC even moves in for the kiss.

 

[Humdrumapple30]

Does the last scene end at Bella's when Maya opens the front door? I see some ppl talk about getting to say Ily to Maya or Josy so I messed up or I'm missing something because i don't recall ever getting that option. Also I hope we get a chance to go back to Zoey I was really hoping to get the option to fall to temptation during the holiday party.

[ZenoMod]

Yes, because until now DPC has only inserted "if" clauses which target the old version of Scrappy's mod.

But nothing forbids him to target in the future any mod which is detectable, and any mod is potentially detectable.

So those who used the old release of Scrappy's mod are assured to experience a "crash" (not a crash, but a forced abrupt quit in reality) when playing Season 3, while other mods (including current release of Scrappy's mod) don't have any known anti-mod check implemented until now. Maybe they will never have, maybe they will.
