How do you unlock "Find Sarah" in episode 2? I never got any offer.

Check the walkthrough, things like this are covered. It’s available on the first post.

you have to of paid for sex via Quinn with Camilla and Riona before he party and then call Quinn and ask for more.

Coriolan you may have made that as a joke but you may be more "correct" in such a guess than you may think.

man you seriously dont like jill, first you want her raped by tybal and now Chad? he cant even get it hard so and he is probably getting fucked by someone (he is probably most likely gay), he even cryes like a girl when the mc beats him.

So my suspicions on Chad were right, now I can say "I did tell you guys"

Even when I try to click on Maya during the night before, it just goes straight to ending the freeroam. I can't talk to her and have her mention her brother is her twin.
EDIT: I figured out my problem. I had a mod that asks to skip free roam and it was auto skipping that major part. Just had to delete the part of the mod that messed with it. It really confused me when I randomly got the guitar again.

There's no effort being made here to defend certain actions. The only effort being made here on my part is to question how much work has to go into a character before game players stop reducing characters to things like "drug dealing scum" as one individual so eloquently phrased it. Being judgmental of fictional characters in a visual novel seems a bridge further than one should be willing to go. It's a game. It's not reality. Quinn could turn out to be everything the players who dislike her character think she is but events in the most recent episode say otherwise. They say Quinn is going to rise above her life circumstances and become something more than the basket into which she is being placed. The MC has the same story in some ways. He is also trying to rise above his lot in life. They like each other because they have things in common. They are both trying to fit into a world where they feel out of place. The MC is just better at it. The MC is socially awkward. Quinn is socially inept.

But my main objection to Quinn isn't that she sells drugs (or runs a prostitution ring), it's that Quinn enjoys making others suffer. I dislike that trait intensely, and I see very little sign it's going to change anytime soon - if indeed it will ever change. Nothing we've seen in the last two episodes shows Quinn struggling with this trait; if anything her scenes with Maya show her reveling in it.

Furthermore, unlike the flaws of other characters (such as Jill's naivety-bordering-on-stupidity or Maya's passivity), I see no direct connection between Quinn's upbringing and her sadism. Rox is dangerously unstable and Quinn's presumed mother is a burned out wreck, but neither is seen tormenting other people for the lulz. Similarly, Buddy does not show any glee at Quinn's misfortune and even seems interested in what might be going wrong for her (though I admit it's possible his motivation was not her wellbeing).

So where did Quinn's mean streak come from? It's certainly plausible it could have sprung from some aspect of her backstory, but nothing we've seen onscreen actually shows the link. For now it's just informed speculation.

And hence my question: is it really fair to blame Quinn's flaws on a bad childhood when a) it's difficult to be certain exactly how bad Quinn's childhood was in comparison to other characters' and b) it's unclear exactly how much her childhood had to do with shaping the worst aspects of Quinn's personality?

You realize the walkthrough was the first thing I went to right? I never got offered by Quinn and the entire section is gone.

I mean, I don’t know how broken the version of the game You have is, but Quinn offers MC her services the Morning after the scene with her and Camilla where she strips you and kicks you out. From there you have to call her in free roam events and pay for Camilla and Riona and that then unlocks Sarah I think.

Given the desire to keep Quinn in a "neutral" sphere (bad but not too bad), I would say that in the story her behaviour is definitely the fault of her past and of the situation in which her past has put her even in the present.

I still think that we don't know what all this money is for, so Quinn keeps on taking more and more risks. certainly not to pay for Riona's joints...

Which brings us back to my original point that it is on the game player to decide for her or himself what is fair or unfair judgment of each character. If this were real life and Quinn were causing actual real world harm to real people it would be easy to say she's just a sadist and hope instant karma gets her. Because it's a game, the more idiosyncrasies Quinn (and every other character) has, the more interesting the story. Jill's story thus far is the equivalent of watching paint dry. From a game player's perspective I want flawed characters. They make for better story telling. If Quinn goes into a drug-induced rage and shoots up the campus, taking out one of the main love interests in the process, that's good story telling. Sufficed to say it is not a good reality.

There's this scene in episode 2 when Mc is really drunk and stays the night at Isabella's house. He see's a guy dressed like a marine standing in the room who he assumes is an intruder, is he hallucinating or did he really see a guy?

MC is really drunk but most striking is the layout of that room.... you enter and that bench like space next to a window is right side of the room, the door to that room is the most left so basicly that window is halfway in the bathroom.... :/

I added a comment later, it was a mod that skipped a section of the game. It was pretty big too, I would be missing 3 numbers and a mark on the meter.

 

[x6XDanteX9x]

Simply an amazing game. So much potential still. The first game here that i actually played more than once. Keep it up man you got my support. Financially as well. Just amazing.

 

[imcharliebrown]

No, we don't know but we can surmise that someone invited to the Prep House party with red hair might be related to someone who lives in the Prep House with red hair and she might be female since he specified that much himself. So many characters meet that description we may never solve this riddle.

red hair at the end we know there are both sage and ashley .. sage tells us that her father is under but, ashley cries for something holed up on the second floor .. maybe it's not just for derek ...

You have to go back to a save near when you go see Cathy at Bella's and either get her a cab or just choose to end it on the car ride to her place.

Do I have to play everything from that point again, or can I go back to a Episode 7 save then?

Projecting is a poor choice of words. That would imply taking something about oneself and applying it to, in this particular instance, Quinn. That is not what is occurring here.

How much development should a side character have before game players are willing to accept the character is who the MC is telling you she is. Remember, this is the story he is telling. That means everything we know about Quinn is limited to what he knows about Quinn. The rest is speculation.

A few facts we do have include Rox having the same tattoo Quinn wears as makeup when she visits him, something she herself claims to do in tribute to her father. Therefore, it is entirely possible, if not probable, Rox is either Quinn's father or uncle or otherwise related. We know his line of work. We know enough about the relationship between Quinn and Rox to know it is not a healthy one. We know the only time she leaves the college campus is to procure drugs from Rox. We think mattress girl is Quinn's mother. It might follow that Buddy is Quinn's brother if Rox is her father and mattress girl is her mother.

Yes, it is mostly open to interpretation and that was my original point. The game gives players just enough information to allow them to take the story in any direction they choose. The primary difference here is I am making no effort to tell Quinn's story for her beyond what the MC's story has already given us. What has been given to us is that Quinn trusts no one. She gives everyone the side eye. She is suspicious of everyone. Maybe it's due to her life circumstances. Maybe it's due to drugs.

There's no effort being made here to defend certain actions. The only effort being made here on my part is to question how much work has to go into a character before game players stop reducing characters to things like "drug dealing scum" as one individual so eloquently phrased it. Being judgmental of fictional characters in a visual novel seems a bridge further than one should be willing to go. It's a game. It's not reality.

The MC is just better at it. The MC is socially awkward. Quinn is socially inept.

Honestly,

WTF are you talking about?

MC tells Maya that Quinn is EVIL, she's going to hurt her and she should avoid her at any cost.

MC is in love with Josy and Maya since the very beginning. Any other girl is just a filler (even Sage and Jill).

Man, these Quinn fanboys are so embarassing...

 

[imcharliebrown]

Even Maya can detect the approach between Josy and MC, and how they move away from her.
I just hope that if that happens, Maya doesn't take it the wrong way, or doesn't fall into depression. She doesn't deserve to suffer

already when josy chooses you to follow her to her father instead of her, even in the friends path, she takes it very badly .. between jealousy and disappointment ..

 

[shazba]

So, at the HOTs party, did anyone get their mc wasted? I was so busy running around getting various girls drinks (no ulterior motive I assure you), that my MC only had one glass of whisky.

So... I went back and got plastered...

[WhamBamKam]

This is why I felt bad at the beginning of ep 7 when the MC fucks Josy. Especially because it was right after the cross cut with Maya looking depressed lol. Although I gotta say the guilt was gone by the time the scene was over.

 

[AchedCroissant]

Oh the irony

 

[imcharliebrown]

and here the other question .. the next evening he fucks josy in his sleep .. how did jill with the hand of the mc .. do you think it will be the random principle of her pregnancy? I don't know how the pill works but, you should take it every night right? if you skip one night it might not work ..

MC tells Maya that Quinn is EVIL, she's going to hurt her and she should avoid her at any cost.

Never did that in all of my playthroughs. Maya is the most unlikeable character from Ep1 and onward.

Crying and whining, and crying and whining some more. That about sums her up.
