No

Well, he can get that when his real grandfather dies too from an inheritance. There's no need to let poor Rusty's family die too!

He did accept the 5 grand " buyout " ... he's not entitled to his " rightful " inheritance anymore...

 

[NebulousShooter]

I wouldn't consider those bittersweet, that's pretty much the dream.

Talking about endings, I do wonder how many endings DPC has planned. There are only 5 main girls (or maybe 6, considering the prologue), but so many side girls. The possibilities are endless, tho obviously limited by how much time and effort DPC can allocate for it. Imagine if you could end up with Becky or Kylie or someone else seemingly insignificant.

MC doing the conjugal visit is the canon epilogue for BaDIK

Aw bugger..... ah well, let's marry a Burgmeister then! (i sure hope Rusty has a sister though... )

The things you need to do in this game to get a little money..... sigh...

 

[PashafromRussia]

Exactly, I totally believe it's possible for MC and Quinn to end up together, but at what cost? That's what I meant by bittersweet ending.

I don't think anyone will die in this game, it doesn't look like that type of game to me (hope I'm right ), but I can totally see DPC writing endings where we end up with the girl we want, but where we'll still be left wondering if it was worth it all in the end.

Quinn has not yet completely crossed the line after which she can be considered a real bad person. She's definitely an antihero, she has questionable motives and actions, but she hasn't killed anyone yet. Yes, she behaves like a bitch with others, but that's not a crime.

Drug trafficking is a serious crime, but for some reason her first cocaine deal fell through. I believe this is done by Pink intentionally so as not to transfer Quinn to the final list of bad heroes. Prostitution is always a voluntary occupation, and the trade in light drugs (such as weed) in such a liberal country as the United States is not so scary.
Of course, she is now at a fork, a crossroads in which direction to go, and I hope that the player on her way will be able to influence her, dissuading her from a suicidal act.

Women and their nails are never a constant.... these fake nails fall off every 2-3 days unless it's done by a really good shop, (then they fall off after a week) So trust me never say that's another girl the nails are different....
It's a known fact, there's a ton of specialists that make a good living from changing womens appearances, fake hair, fake nails, fake tits, fake ass, fake lips, fake teint, fake teeth, really, the only thing these specialist make that's real is money!

Sure. And the vixen is in a Halloween costume, so it's even possible she changed her nail style for just for that. But it's one more data point that's easier to explain if Kylie isn't the vixen.

Well, he can get that when his real grandfather dies too from an inheritance. There's no need to let poor Rusty's family die too!

Nah, his grandfather is perfectly capable of writing a will that excludes the MC entirely. Indeed, he's probably already done so.

I'm back to this game after a long time. It has so much content. How long the dev takes between each update?

5+ months

What about that syringe scene with Tommy? She has dealt heavy drugs before, and regarding the prostitution, she's running the show so she's basically a pimp, just do a quick google search and see what kind of prison sentences those dudes usually get. Like I said, whether we think it's serious or not, the crimes she's committing are very serious in the US.

The syringe scene was never mentioned afterwards. I think Pink ignores her altogether. I'm not sure about pimping. The real pimp could be Burke.

But that's typical DPC writing, write something, don't mention it for several episodes then bring it back later to bite you in the ass when you're least expecting it.
And it's not Burke who recruits and rallies up the girls, or puts them in their place when they start going off-script, even if he is the leader, Quinn is still an accomplice not a victim.

I'm not saying she's a victim. I'm just saying that she still has a chance to finish well, for example, by becoming a witness in court. She hasn't crossed the red line yet.

In general, I don't believe that Quinn will have any kind of happy ending. I'm more inclined to believe that MС will help her escape, she kisses him one last time and says "Goodbye, pervert." That would be quite touching. MС stays on campus for example with Riona. Maybe in a few years she finds him, but that would be too atypical for Quinn.

 

[NotEthan;P]

Plus the whole Free Tuition. That's all kinds of illegal dealings. Burke will have the big punishment for that (if there's no one above him), but Quinn is an accomplice as it's her who leads the girls to the free tuition. Basically Quinn has already crossed the line, at least in being a criminal that could go to prison for a few years if not more.

I think we seriously need to consider the possibility Quinn at one point will atleast consider suicide...
The cocaine is still in her room...
We've seen a medical syringe, not the one-time throw away type...
We have reasons to assume her father might be dead...
We have reasons to assume he might have died of a cocaine overdose...
I think DPC just gave us a series of hints, spread over the story so far.
It's either that or atleast something like an overdose for someone...
The cocaine being kept is to specific to end just there...

but the problem for the inheritance is not Rusty, it's the fact that Lynette was in fact disinherited

the first check that came to Mc didn't shock him one bit, much less a car with air conditioning....

Yeah, i agree but lets face it, if there is gonna be any big inheritance it's still more likely to come from his own grandfather then from a Burgmeister.
There's hints we get to meet people who are related to MC's mother's friends, so next step is meeting them and learning who is the grandfather.... We might eventually even meet him, he will get to know MC and he regrets his decisions, tadaaa!
Even if far fetched it's still more sensible then hoping to be related to a Burgmeister when there's absolutely zero storyline pointing in that direction.
And hell, for the fun of theories ; MC might even meet Gramps in the home for the elderly where the old sod decides to put MC in his will as sole heir, just to keep his lousy not worthy grandson he never seen from getting anything.... not knowing he is actually giving it to exactly that guy.

 

[NotEthan;P]

This is just speculation, but the whole cocaine deal feels as a personal thing for Quinn. With the flashback and how she reacts to the substance, it's seems very likely her father died (or something related) due to cocaine. That's why Quinn is so weary and pensive about it. The bad thing that may happen is that Quinn's business will likely fall, and then she will try it as a form of escapism. And it will be up for the MC and her friends to help her out of it before it's too late. And maybe through that, expose the whole corrupted system at B&R.

No. Quinn might be many things, but she is in no way an antihero. A character like that is often one working for good by doing 'bad' things. Batman and Blade actually fit the descriptor well, with the harm they do to 'clean up' the world.

Quinn is not on any angle of 'good' here. She is a madame to prostitutes, some of which she has certainly manipulated into the life to enrich herself. She is a drug dealer. She is, zero question, a villain in this story. It doesn't matter that she might fall for the MC. Kingpin fell in love, too. He's still a major fucking villain. It doesn't matter that Quinn hasn't killed somebody, murder is not the line in the sand for whether or not somebody is a bad person.

Even if she were to wind up on a court stand as witness against those she's involved with, that would not be out of goodness. She would 100% be doing it to lessen the consequences against herself. There's no 'hero' of any sort with Quinn, it's just layers of crime.

And a cute butt.

Yep, and even bad people have feelings and do good things for the people they actually care about, so DPC can easily write relatable scenes and make fools fall for her left and right because he's a troll and loves this kind of shit .
She will be a very tragic character for sure.

Cocaine is for the Halloween party.

Lily will buy it off her for the Lily/Envy threesome.
