I dunno... I doubt I could ever get past my utter disgust with Quinn. The way she exploits other people really bugs me. I'm no angel, I've done bad things in my own past... but I've never exploited, used or hurt people the way she does. Especially not with the sadistic disregard she does it. Honestly, Quinn, Buddy, Vinny... my impulse with all of them is 3 bullets center mass for each; I don't ever see the MC reacting that way... that's my own feeling, I intensely dislike all of them.I would say give it a go when you get through the other main lines.
Just from a writing perspective, she has the start of a redemption arc that is really well done when the MC romances her.
Tommy, needs his ass thoroughly kicked for repeat offenses and IMNSHO, when Tommy found out about the MC and Josy, the MC should have flattened Tommy right there and then. Told Tommy he needs to get his selfish head out of his own ass. Did he think Josy was going to stay a little girl forever and never date? What, does he want her to end up with a guy line HIM (Tommy), a guy who cheats on her, treats her like shit, and lies to her or would he rather she have a guy who cares about her, tries his best to be good to her and make her happy... because THAT'S WHAT SHE FOUND. If he's so worried about how he'll treat Josy, maybe he ought to worry more how he treats women, because they're probably somebody's sister too. If Derek can deal with this and be happy for us, why are you being such a little bitch about it? (That last coming full circle with a line Tommy threw at the MC at one point)
Apparently from what I've read in the Guide, Tommy makes a similar scene when he finds out Sage spent the night with the MC in his room, and one option is... "share Sage with Tommy" WTF. WHY would the MC ever offer that? Tommy boy... you seriously need your ass STOMPED.
But... what can I say, I have no issue with violence. Sometimes a punch in the nose is exactly what's required to teach a lesson.
Sorry, all this thinking about the Maya/Josy path, I had to get that bit about Tommy out of my system, that scene and how it affected things really aggravated me.
