I really hope to see Bella’s smile in the game sometime.
We will... the (We) MC will give her that needed smile back for he is her saviorI really hope to see Bella’s smile in the game sometime.
It's probably just me, but I find Bella's in-game primary hairstyle really suck. Both her bedtime hairstyle and this beach hairstyle makes her 10x more beautiful.You must be registered to see the links

It fits the stern and all-business image she wants to show outwards, though. She probably doesn't want to be perceived as a beautiful woman but as a boring librarian instead. I mean she's failing at it horribly, she's an absolute smokeshow but that's the intention.It's probably just me, but I find Bella's in-game primary hairstyle really suck.

With that cleavage? I mean, you’re right, but…It fits the stern and all-business image she wants to show outwards, though.

Ya I think it's the complete lack of her smiling, ever, that's kinda turned me off to her at this point. If she'd start smiling more she'd get my attention - just have a difficult time getting the feels for a character who just looks like a robot all the time.I really hope to see Bella’s smile in the game sometime.
Absolutely. Her normal hairstyle in-game is terrible.It's probably just me, but I find Bella's in-game primary hairstyle really suck. Both her bedtime hairstyle and this beach hairstyle makes her 10x more beautiful.
This may just be me but I feel like the end of the game is targed at:Back in May, I posted list of all the scenes, variations of scenes, other moments, and RP you can obtain or not obtain by being a certain status and/or affinity.
So, for those wondering whether it's better to DIK, CHICK, or Neutral I will post it here again and have updated it with the content from episode 5.

It's hard to say because my understanding is that DPC is cagey about revealing how the systems work (this is why RP is a hidden stat). My best guess is that each LI has their own Affinity bar which is hidden from the player and the MC needs to have a corresponding level to match up with them; failure to line up with your target girl would lead to a sad end.Speaking about end game I've always wondered how big of an impact our AFFINITY will have compared to the choices we've made in determing the endings we get.
Good finally Bella wallpaper is here !!You must be registered to see the links

As long as these are telegraphed and a culmination of prior events I'll have no issue with it. If, for sake of argument, Sage ends up with a choice in endgame that requires a high DIK affinity to keep the relationship going the build up to that needs interactions with Sage to have a lot of DIK choices. Clear cut situations where she expects you to be a DIK.It's hard to say because my understanding is that DPC is cagey about revealing how the systems work (this is why RP is a hidden stat).

1 - At the end of each chapter we're presented with a summary of how we're doing with each LI.

Basically the game would start having Sage be disappointed by CHICK actions, and happy with DIK ones so when this hypothetical DIK requirement turns up it isn't entirely out of the blue. I don't want to be able to have a happy relationship with her as a CHICK just for an arbitrary DIK check to end things.
If it introduces hard affinity checks for relationships I want to actually see the girls respond to their affinity and reject the other so it isn't just an arbitrary check. The game doesn't have the girls push their affinity enough for DPC to use it as he intends.
Honestly, if that happens then it will suck.It's hard to say because my understanding is that DPC is cagey about revealing how the systems work (this is why RP is a hidden stat).

I agree with you, but also feel that's exactly what the affinity system is (it was already used that way at the end of episode 4). Beyond being rejected/accepted it can block from even making certain choices. I don't like the system, but it's part of the game and some people may have to go back and run from different saves making out of character choices to get to a desired result.Honestly, if that happens then it will suck.
Imagine what it would be like if a player who has set their sights on Sage and maintained either a Neutral or CHICK affinity right on through until the end, but then gets reject by her because she's basically just like, "nah, I'm DIK affinity and you're not so I'm ending this relationship". It wouldn't make sense because, even if there are certain things which might make her seem like she's on that side of the scale, players can still do pretty much everything with Sage, including being FWB, whilst having those other affinities. There so far hasn't been any indication she wouldn't want a guy like that, so a player getting rejected at the end over that would be a terrible way to end the game for those players.

Yes but the being hard locked out due to affinity changes things. If you need a certain affinity for someone it can't just be arbitrary or it renders the entire system moot. We're dealing with an imperfect system here... heavily criticised on this thread. If he's going to have a system that hard locks you out of saying something based on prior actions it needs to have some way of predicting that. Consistency before the hard choice is one way of doing it.1 - At the end of each chapter we're presented with a summary of how we're doing with each LI. This varies depending on your choices.
2 - RP, the hidden stat, could very well serve to soften Affinity checks by letting you get the good ending with an LI if you are 1 mark out. For example, if Sage requires Major Dik (or positions 5-8) then a high RP would allow you to get her good ending with an Affinity of 1-4 or 9-12.
3 - The choices you make should naturally lead you to the best girl for your version of the MC; conflict should only arise if you, for example, pick Maya as your preferred then make mostly Dik choices which rule her out as the final girl.
I have to concede that I'm making a lot of assumptions here.
