Yep, any of them on their own will trigger 'potential'. I was quite stunned. Unless DPC made a mistake and it should have been Riona, but I doubt that as his play testing would/should have discovered it. I personally don't see a long term relationship as a possibility with the two, but she's not really my type, so I might be being biased. Meanwhile, I do see a long term with relationship with Rio as a possibility.The others already spoke my thoughts on the Riona question, so I'll focus on the part that gained my attention and seemingly no one else's. Are you saying that Jade alone can trigger the code for "potential"?
If we're following the Riona logic Spock drew up from reading my mind it means the character of Fuckface thinks there is a potential for a romantic relationship between him and Jade, and this is before the divorce papers are even written up. I know he can be a bit of an idiot but how does he see that possibility with all the obstacles in the way and the nature of their interactions?
It's not like with Bella with an absent and possibly dead husband, no kids to think of, and a best friend who is around the same age as her possible lover, who also has a well-founded friendship with the MC. Fuckface has barely any more meaningful social interactions with Jade than he has with the vending machine kid. Outside of class, all they really do is fuck like feral otters and then engage in some toxic af pillow talk.
Now that I've taken the time to write about it, I realize it's kind of inane and there's a high probability it won't matter down the line, but fuck it. This forum can handle my overthought discussion topics. We can always go back to the cycle of meme-offs and waifu wars, not to forget the unrelenting "where/when update", "how install", and "fix bug" posts.
To cap it off, does anybody see Fuckface and Jade having, not only a long-term but successful relationship arise after the divorce? For those who have played Acting Lessons, do you think it'll play out like it did with that MC's ex-wife?
Just done my Throuple - equal save, few notes i guess
Josy does feel like an afterthought at times, not in character (which is the common complaint), but interactions, for example the ep7 hangout, If you choose to hang with Maya, Tremolo takes a TV over so she can watch her movies which means a ton to her, she realises that she can genuinely get horny with Tremolo and enjoy sex and cum from it, which is massive as she continues to explore her sexuality (as she mentions to Sage at the halloween party that she isn't even sure what she is), Tremolo shares stuff about his mum.
Josy's hangout, they go swimming, talk about investing or something unimportant and fuck. As someone who enjoys the more intimate/emotional moments in the game over sex scenes, (which is why Sage is my favourite), it doesn't compare
The dorm party, Maya and Tremolo share an intimate kiss in public, before running off and having a long scene which shows Maya's playful side and shows her realising she enjoys sex where she can get caught, again expanding her character
Josy and Tremolo share a very intimate kiss (Much better than the one with Maya to be fair) and Josy learns to stand up for herself a bit more, which then isn't shown when Becky is being a cunt in episode 10.
The halloween party doesn't have a ton of character development. While Josy shows a bit of character development in her personality, Maya gets sexuality development, which i think makes sense as Maya's character is established pretty early on. As previously mentioned, Maya tells Sage that she doesn't know exactly what she is, she feels more comfortable with PDA with Tremolo, she again has risky sex with Tremolo.
Josy shows she probably has a bit of an exhibitionist side when she flashes her breast. There's also an aspect of her character that isn't established early on but isn't really explored throughout the game. Josy's family relationships, her relationship with her father is established to be very good early on, but then i feel like DPC shuts it down when Josy refuses to let Tremolo meet her parents with the excuse about them fucking in Episode 2, despite this being easy to explain away (it was a different boy, oh guess what this one knows Tommy). Having a great relationship with a supportive family would offer a different perspective and give Josy and Tremolo something to bond with, and offer something different since basically every main character in the game outside of Tremolo has beef with family. Also Josy is a very very horny person
She shows a nice dynamic in Episode 10, which perfectly juxstaposes if you break the throuple up. If you break it up, Maya is understanding and tries to move past it, in this case Maya is shellshocked and unsure, while Josy tries to see the positives and leans into it
But then the hangout thing happens again, Maya and Tremolo bond over movies again and have an intimate, emotional chat about their situation, about Josy, the relationship, thanksgiving, and they fuck
Josy and Tremolo bond over pillow forts (that sounds like i'm taking the piss, but it's genuinely cute), have what amounts to small talk, and then reminisce about having crushes on each other, which keeps coming up, even weeks/months into the throuple, and fuck
Within the context of the game, it feels like it has always been Josy is the lust in a relationship, and Maya has been the emotional/intimate side
That is the rambles of a man who is writing a dissertation on video game characters at 5am, so i apologise if i've missed something or i'm way off base
One thing i will stand on, I disagree with 90% of the ha
You've gone into detail about something I've thought a lot about regarding the throuple, especially since I'm on Episode 8 of my replay: Maya is love, Josy is lust, to make it oversimplified. Maya discovery, Josy adventure.

I hadn't seen the "I have literally nothing going on." dialogue before. I tested my Zoey "virgin" path & apparently getting Nora's phone number counts. Despite only interacting with her on Swyper & helping her in the gym. DPC can't code every possibility & having certain situations trigger different dialogues. But in a perfect world, those 2 interactions wouldn't trigger the "potential" response.I just noticed something that I've only seen for the first time.
When you are talking to Derek and Thirsty Ghoul and Derek asks if you're seeing anyone there's a check.
If you are 'seeing/fucking' Nora, Lily, Nicole, Quinn or Jade - Tremolo responds with "Not dating, but I see the potential."
If you are 'seeing/fucking' Riona or no one - Tremolo responds with "I have literally nothing going on."
Why would Riona be left off the list?
I suppose it's not a bad dynamic, for a throuple, at least they're not the same character duplicatedYou've gone into detail about something I've thought a lot about regarding the throuple, especially since I'm on Episode 8 of my replay: Maya is love, Josy is lust, to make it oversimplified. Maya discovery, Josy adventure.
I do apologise, i was in bed at 5:30am typing all that outNot totally sure what you mean here, how does Josy try to see the positives after getting dumped?![]()
I think that's a fair take. She's nice to Tremolo and kinda flirty with him from day 1, but it's not until at least after the cumpetition, where she begins to open up to Tremolo, that i think she is attractedMy takeaway from this and what Maya might possibly be is a demisexual. Which is when a person needs to develop a close emotional bond with someone before they start feeling sexually attracted to them
ofc, who can blame herNotice how much she likes Sage too![]()
Weirdest thing ever. Maya became a lesbian because the boys wouldn't dance with her?
Ha i unironically really enjoy his long form posts, probably inspired me a bitOk, Geralt, give back his account! Hacking is illegal
Also, why end it in a cliffhanger?![]()
Maya is the definition of "Lesbian until graduation"Weirdest thing ever. Maya became a lesbian because the boys wouldn't dance with her?
This whole Maya being a lesbian thing is so far-fetched, it's like DPC himself has no idea who lesbians are and doesn't know their psychology.
I'd believe it more if it turned out that Maya saw one lesbian movie and liked it a lot than this explanation.

I hope some random doesn't accuse me of white knighting, but I am constantly amazed. I have 15 paths all with 3 subpaths and often think I have seen everything. Then I'll play for a bit more and find a line like that I have never seen before. The detail to branching and dialogue pathing is up there with the very best.I hadn't seen the "I have literally nothing going on." dialogue before. I tested my Zoey "virgin" path & apparently getting Nora's phone number counts. Despite only interacting with her on Swyper & helping her in the gym. DPC can't code every possibility & having certain situations trigger different dialogues. But in a perfect world, those 2 interactions wouldn't trigger the "potential" response.
My Zoey "virgin" path has Riona, Maya, & Nora available as potential paths at the start of ep. 10. With Nora & Riona able to "bust" the MCs cherry by ep. 10 end. And I'm on the path of breaking up the throuple with Maya being interested in the MC. I'll have to see how this path plays out. I may have to restart this save & be even harsher with my rejection of the girls.
there's quite literally no basis that this what caused her to be lesbian.Weirdest thing ever. Maya became a lesbian because the boys wouldn't dance with her?

"Their". Are you implying that all lesbians are similar from a psychological point of view ?This whole Maya being a lesbian thing is so far-fetched, it's like DPC himself has no idea who lesbians are and doesn't know their psychology.
Oh gotcha. Well a lot of their issues stem from having to hide their relationship, and this helps relieves some of the pressure. Josy in particular wants to be out in the open, and says as much during truth or drink.josy is a lot more positive once the news of the throuple is shared, as opposed to the breakup where she is utterly dejected.
MC "If there were no consequences to your actions, what's the wildest thing you would do?"
Josy "That one is easy for me. I wouldn't hide you two from anyone."
Josy "I'd be making out with you both in public, walking through school, holding your hands and talking openly about how I feel Maya "While that doesn't sound wild, it is wild to me."
MC "That's a great answer. A very sweet one."
It's unwarranted. Just scroll upThe cliffhanger was me being half asleep, i meant to say i don't understand and disagree with 90% of the hate that Maya gets
There are gonna be people who hate cause it's the internet, and there's a section of people who hate lesbians because they don't understand or like that lesbians quite simply might not be attracted to themOh gotcha.

Idk about that last part but yeah that sums up a lotThere are gonna be people who hate cause it's the internet, and there's a section of people who hate lesbians because they don't understand or like that lesbians quite simply might not be attracted to them
But there's a lot of people who attack her character as selfish and so on. The only criticism i think is fair is that her model in episode 10 fucking sucks
