I have no idea how the MC, universally speaking (all routes), is going to get involved with Buddy. Nothing so far indicates that this meeting between the two is close. MC doesn't even know that Quinn sells drugs.
The only way on all routes that might be possible imo is if Tommy some how does a stupid move that make Buddy for some reason come after him and/or MC and/or other DIKs. That's about it.

I already hate that fish and I hope it dies. The fucker stole my money. That fish going to be the DIKS next entrée at dinner.
That's loser behavior dude. I planned myself properly and now the fishes are all upgraded and I have free extra income of money from them, they are basically self sustainable by selling the babies and also give me some money.

Vinny most probably or maybe Rio.
Even Vinny doesn't have a bad relationship with the MC (MGs route and didn't punch him). We can say that they just started things off on the wrong foot. If the MC isn't on Quinn's, Lily's or Riona's route, Vinny has no problem with the MC. Besides, it's possible to ignore even his (MC) friendship with Riona. Let's see what DPC is cooking...

Do you know what's funny and also depressing? Magnar is BY FAR the best president out of every single one we had be show on the game. Followed by focking Dawe and Tybalt... like fucking hell.

Sage would be the best one if she had not been completely blind to the infection that was growing inside her sorority. The fact that she seems to be oblivious to what Quinn is doing is beyond me.
Its all fine and nice until Magnar, Ron and Bert become the newest inmates alongside Stephen. Seriously asking what level of punishment can be given to Magnar and his underlings for the shit they have pulled?

Radical Centrist (Neutral) best path confirmed?
There is no best path but the dik-all-the-time path is probably the worst.

one would think someone with a history of being bullied won't become the biggest bully on the campus
You'd be surprised how often (in fact more often than not) bullied people become bullies themselves later in life.

MC does actually, if you're on Quinn's path. She tells him that she sells drugs. And since Vinny also goes to the same place and MC literally sees him there, even a dumb as bricks MC could put two and two together.

It could also of course be that Quinn asks Tommy for help or just simply contacts him with what she's been up to and Tommy in turn asks MC for help to save her ass.

Yeah, that is the biggest problem with Sage that hasn't really been explained yet. Honestly I think the whole "Quinn is a pimp" part of the story is kinda bad in hindsight and should've been done differently, because it just goes too far. Why would any of the girls even go with that in the first place and how would they keep that from Sage? It makes very little sense and actually kinda ruins Quinn's character and makes Sage's otherwise very interesting character questionable as well.
The prostitution ring was needed for the tuition storyline which supports Maya's whole arc in the first 6 episodes. For which other reasons the sorority sisters would get it "freely" ? A case of nepotism involving Sage using her father's contact would have made her look bad. As for the prostitution itself, it's a cheap way to get early sex scenes, and student prostitution is more frequent than people are wiling to admit. It's not out of the place for a college based game.

It's tied to Burke because he's the logical character with the power position and the ressource. As for Quinn, while her main story is ultimately tied to the drugs storyline, she was meant to be a shaddy character since the beginning and Maya needed an opposition for the early story. Adding another madame among the HOTs in addition to Quinn & Riona being drug dealers would have been too much. Of course, DPC could have handdled Sage's lack of obviousness better. The prostitution ring is only working because the girls have submissive personnalities and are ok with it ( and because smarter character like Lily just don't give a fuck ).

The pimp stuff is probably a deal she had going on with Stephen. I don't know the full extent of that deal, but we will find out eventually when we find about that Priscilla bitch.
I doubt that, since she also offers them to others. That would be a disaster for Stephen if he actually would be behind that because it would come out far too easily. And what leverage does Quinn even have. The girls would learn very quickly that Sage doesn't know about it and wouldn't condone it and then Quinn would be done for.

Again: It is just a bad plot point that actually does more harm than good to the story and the whole Mona plot could've been done differently (or cut completely) and very little to nothing would've been lost while it would've enhanced the believability of the story to begin with.

Take Quinn for example: With this plot point, she is just not redeemable anymore. She coerced young women to have sex for money and then taking the money from them. There is just no ambiguity about that. It is just evil and bad. Without that plot point, she would've been a bit of an asshole and would deal light drugs. While that isn't good, it would make her a lot more ambiguous as a character who can still return and do good, without having a permanent mark on her.

And Sage also looks bad in this. Her "daughters" get pimped out under her nose from someone she - for no apparent reason - trusts and thinks is a perfectly fine successor to herself, even though Quinn belies that assessment at every turn and openly so.

I gotta agree with that, Fish are easy money plus extra bank in case you exceed 10 bucks.

Episode 11: Lily path
Through the game i mostly looked at Lily as hot blonde hookup girl with great (by BaDIK standards) sex scenes, like easy going college girl for fun, nothing more. She was and the end of my general top-10 list, on a par with Nicole.
That rolling theme with the king and queen in Ep.10 was a turn down for me, middle school level stuff that has no place in college. It was childish. But the heart-to-heart talk on the dock at the BBQ party eased my doubts a bit - I suspected that Lily was just playing to the crowd and wasn't who she really was.
Episode 11 shows a different side of Lily and lifted her up in my eyes because "rolling" thing really was all fake. Lily is a multi-dimensional character and her development is similar to Sage's. To see the story at its best, you have to choose "I hope this turns into something more" during the argument with Sage - if MC shows feelings for Lily, their dynamic becomes much more interesting.
Lily tells us her story. She is MC's female reflection in many ways. Childhood problems: bullying, ugly looks, problems in the family - does it remind you of anyone? In one of their stories diverged - for MC, his father was his support and role model, Lily became a rebel because she was tired of over-control and how they tried to make her into something she didn't want. She wanted to become independent, live her own life and forget that ugly girl with braces that she was, worked on her looks and eventually got into Pink Rose. Lily created a shield for herself of a bad girl who doesn't give a shit, because no matter what you do, the world will be against you.
Moment when she confesses this to MC was a very sensual revelation, which opened Lily up to me again as a full-fledged LI.

As I suspected, a lot of Lily was fake. Her slutty stripper image turned out to be a shield that many BaDIK characters have and as the story progresses, they show their true colors. Another parallel between Lily and MC is how enterprising and proactive she is, she quickly becomes important person in HOTs as MC in DIKs and also does party planning (though it's strange that Sage doesn't like Lily).
Lewd with Lily is a masterpiece, broken into two separate scenes - rough/sensual, and the second one shows that Lily has strong feelings for MC, which she didn't want to show and the whole rolling game falls apart. The chemistry between them is incredible. A small quarrel where MC splits her game, turning into passionate but sensual sex and Lily, who is afraid to give in to feelings and demands "HARDER!"

Exceeded all expectations. For me, Lily leaves Nicole and her trailer far behind. Another 10/10 branch you didn't expected.

I have no idea why people hate the fish so badly. It's free $2-5 multiple times per episode with just a few clicks. Way simpler and faster than the other stupid puzzles or the brawler. :whistle:
When you have over 20 saves, the fish is absolutely annoying. I have ignored the fish and it won't die.

In all cases, he trashed his room, called him a dog and pull a gun under his nose even if the Mc tries to defuse the situation. It's more than starting thing on the wrong foot, the guy is a dick to you no matter what you do.
