Can we romance Zoey ?

The potential is there. There are feelings and emotions, but a path with Zoey is currently unknown.

Why does my main character have a bruise on his face at the beginning of Chapter 6? I didn't get punched by anyone at the end of Chapter 5.

Just keep playing and your question will be answered.

Can we romance Zoey ?

In episode 11, she becomes the main LI, so you can romance her, but there isn't much content yet.

 

[GarudoSCHE]

Give me your top 3 girls that are "wife material". I'll go with:

1. Sage (of course) View attachment 5525697
2. Bella (love doesn't care about age gaps) View attachment 5525688
3. Jill (even though I don't like her very much ) View attachment 5525689

1. Definitely Sage
2. Riona
3. Maya

 

[sehdal]

Okay, after Chapter 6 i think Rusty, Tommy and MC should do threesome.

Give me your top 3 girls that are "wife material". I'll go with:

1. Sage (of course) View attachment 5525697
2. Bella (love doesn't care about age gaps) View attachment 5525688
3. Jill (even though I don't like her very much ) View attachment 5525689

1. Jill, its just the best Love-Route in the game so far. Just... "wholesome" and i really like Jill.
2. Maya, until episode 10 it would be Josy at this point, but her character got some dents lately while Maya became better with each episode after episode 4. Still Josy is the "hottest" Girl in my book (i just like petite girls) Maya is real wife material.
3. Nicole (Envy), she wants to settle down, needs a guy who is willing to accept her as a whole and really wants to get serious with the MC. Though despite the fact she is a stripper and did sell her body (yeah you could say she did prostitute herself a bit) there is no doubt she wants something real with the MC and i really like where this is going with her, each encounter got more and more "lovely" with her.

I placed Nicole on the 3rd because most placed Sage in such a list anyways... i dont like Sage that much, but she became better with each episode and her love-path is getting deeper with each episode too. So iam willing to share the third place between Nicole and Sage i guess.

Zoey? I dont like her, but of course... the connection and history and her changed behaivior, if you pick her with the MC, she is indeed wife material already.

Every other Girl/Lady does fall behind in the regard of being "wife material" pretty far at this point.

Josy needs to grow up, and get her mindset figured out quickly. It wasnt an issue before episode 9, but now it is.

Bella... she cant be wife material without knowing whats going on with her, if you want to get real serious with someone, she has to be open about certain things, an Bella was not so far. No matter how "lovely" she can be, honesty is crucial. But she was not willing to be open in the real important things regarding her marriage. So... nah, no wife material at this point, but that can change.

Potential wife material for the other girls... i would say... Rio, my favorite Sidegirl together with Nicole, but of course her situation needs to be solved first to get into something serious with her. And we dont know how this will turn out, my gut tells me that she will leave B&R and there will be no happy end together with the MC... I am pretty sure that many girls will not get serious with the MC in the end for different reasons, despite the game showing us "potential". But not everythign will work out.

And thats it, every other girl is no wife material and i dont think ever will be.

Jade is batshit crazy, kinda psychopath (though i like her path, its fun... and interesting to watch because of the open drama)
Nora? She doesnt really want too i think... she likes to play around with this thaught, but no... she will not go for the MC for real.
Lily? There is a reason why she said the MC shouldnt fall for her, it will turn out that she will not go into a real relationship with the MC, for whatever reason.
Quinn? Of course not... never ever wife material.

And all the others are not more than fuckbuddies and never will be more.

The full 18.6 GB one. The other is just a patch for episode 9-10 only.

Can we romance Zoey ?

Well, we can abandon other plans for Zoey. Does that make a path for Zoey? I suppose, but we don't really know.

 

[Roger-a-Dale]

Can we romance Zoey ?

Yes, but there isn't any content yet except in flashbacks. The curious thing is that the choices made in season 3 don't decide if MC can get Zoey back, but if Zoey can get him back, so it's more like Zoey romances MC.

True, considering that MC dated Zoey in the past, she seems more interested in him than he is in her.

2. Bella (love doesn't care about age gaps) View attachment 5525688
3. Jill (even though I don't like her very much ) View attachment 5525689

1. Jill, because she's the most vanilla, pure heart, straightforward romance, and has the resources.
2. Sage. She directly asks the questions: 1. Future Family, 2. Which person is next to him, 3. Children., despite her hedonism that she'll either grow out of or incorporate into some ENM thing.
3. Nora. She asked 4 questions in a playful date/get to know kind of way. 1. Music, 2. Cats vs Dogs, 3. Appearances matter, 4. Kids in the future. The fact she broke up puts her in last, but well above Bella (already married) and all the others. Slightly below Sage, but would be 2. if she didn't break it off.

Bonus points to Tara for being a more...traditional romance type of girl, despite her already being in a relationship. She seems to genuinely care about the MC and what scenario she and they were placed in.

Small points to Maya for being just a general all-round good girlfriend. Losing points due to Josy sucking.

Very small points to Nicole for already starting a family and choosing the MC in some mature sort of manner. Despite fooling around with Lily...and being a stripper...oh.

Everyone else? No.

Whether any of these women can be wife material is drama/comedy.

When is Episode 12 coming out?

First, we have to project the # of screens.

To do that, we project new timelines for episode 12, by analyzing trends:

#	Renders	Working days	Renders/day
EP 8	4158	150.71	27.59
EP 9	5037	205	24.57
EP 10	5868	255	23.01
EP 11	7113	325.71	21.84

*Assume working days are normal at 5 a week, so a normal 5 day work week schedule.

Renders/day shows a declining trend, due to all sorts of $$$$$ Milking reasons.

So let's assume EP 12 follows this trend:
4158 to 5037 = +21.14%
5037 to 5868 = +16.49%
5868 to 7113 = +21.22%

The average (sum/3):
19.6167%

So the potential number of new screens from 7133 (+19.62%) is 8508.335871, or ~8500.

(We're not taking into account other things like animations and coding, QA, testing, etc.; regardless, the total days are the same.)

Now we go back to the actual time episodes took

#	Renders	Days
EP 4	2532	148
EP 5	2456	141
EP 6	3336	169
EP 7	3723	162
EP 8	4158	211
EP 9	5037	287
EP 10	5868	357
EP 11	7113	456

*Interlude skipped because, yeah, even worse projections with those numbers. Destroyer indeed.

Method 1: Trend of average renders per day
(minus work days, we'll just use straight numbers regardless of workdays minus weekends, as the trend is the same)

Renders/Day rate is:
EP 9: 17.55
EP 10: 16.44
EP 11: 15.60

For whatever Milked reason, DPC is slowing down.

Estimated days using EP 11 rate:
Renders / (renders/day rate) = 8500 / 15.6 = 545 days.

Estimated days using EP10/11 delta = (16.44 - 15.60 = 0.84, thus, 15.60 - 0.84 = 14.76)
Renders / (renders/day rate) = 8500 / 14.76 = 576 days.

***
EP 11 released on March 7, 2025.

Thus if using EP11's trend, the release date is:
September 3rd, 2026

Thus if using EP11/10's delta trend, the release date is:
October 4th, 2026

Method 2: Linear trend (day count)

Looking at the increase in days:
EP 9 to 10 was 70 days (357-287 = 70)
EP 10 to 11 was 99 days (456-357 = 99)

99-77 = 22, or a 22 day increase. Thus, 22 + 99 = 121 days

So, EP 11 at 456 days + 121 days = 577 days

Thus if using linear trend of days, the release date is:
October 5th, 2026

***
Conclusion:

In software dev, we usually account for 10-20% overage (which is when things go boom and more time is needed):
576 times 0.10 = 57.6 days
576 + 57.6 = 633.6 days (634)
Thus:
December 1, 2026

576 times 0.20 = 115.2 days
576 + 115.2 = 691.2 days (691)
Thus:
January 26, 2027

So the range of probable release dates, assuming 8500 new screens (and all other work being equal and accounted for), we have a trend between:
September 3rd 2026
&
January 26th 2027

It's green because of the $$$$$

Someone is obviously trying to recalculate the probability of the release date of the new game update.

I did just update the projection post to incorporate DPCs 60% completion statement. September 2026 was accurate. Who knows what future complications will occur.

The funny part is that he was doing pretty well until he got to the overage part. Overage is something you add when you have data for progress pace in short term and want to account for potential set backs that slow the project down. In this case the pace was calculated from previous projects so it's long term data already and time increase from set backs is built in. The mistake shows that grarg doesn't understand what he is talking about.
