How many times have I seen this kind of question and answered it ?

I agree that since MC had sex multiple times with other LI's, people ask why not yet with Jill?

First of all, this game is a storytelling one not a porn game on main basis. The story is the main focus of DPC not the sex scenes. Things with Jill are going good and it is actually possible that in ep8 or ep9, we have sex with Jill.

Still...I really don't understand why people are so eager for MC to have sex with Jill. I want it to happen as well but I am enjoying other aspects as well. Dates with her are satisfactory and it's no fun to bang a girl every 10s.

Guys just run for pussy, not for the love and chemistry...but I am a vanilla guy.
*Whispers- Everyone has their own tastes Robert*...*Right*

This opinion is given by a normal guy who cherishes love and chemistry more than sex...classy

People need to STRONGLY STOP saying a game is not porn. YES IT IS. Every thread with a half decent story game, people overly attached say it's not a porn game, stop bullshitting. It's a completely porn game. You have sex on rooftops, in public, you cheat, MMF, anal, drugs, MILF, prostitution with very little build up and reason behind other than having a big dick.

Please somebody start a fucking compaign to end this bullshit. If it wasn't a porn game it would explicitly have "no sex content" tag as games that are not porn games DO ACTUALLY have that tag.

I've read all 7 HP books ! Even the Cursed Child (kinda which I didn't

)
And I know that you love GOT but I never read the books... I'll get around to it but the series finale killed all my hype of the franchise...
But I'm on this site almost every day ! Isn't that enough to pass the nerd purity test ???

So I have found Vinny now. He is sitting on the train with the dog. Maybe he is the brother of the MC. MC and Jill talked about pets on their first date. The MC would have liked to have a dog. The screenshots of the train even show what happens in EP8. Wow. DPC is really planning way ahead. Check out the posters on the walls of the train. On the right side is a poster about Halloween and on the left side we see a poster with PP and Y. Plan Party.

And somehow another spooky picture. Do you see the guy behind Maya? Look at his hand. You could almost believe that the spots on his hand, especially on the fingertips, are red with blood. By the way, this is also the game passage where Maya tells the MC that she has a boyfriend. Is that maybe already Vinny?

I've never given the nerds a second thought, since they seemed tame and timid, but after thinking about what you've said, there could be a possibility of the Cluck being posted by the nerds. After all, they are nerds, and stereotypically, they'd be good with tech stuff. They might not even have needed the DIKs' laptop, and could've just hacked into their Rooster account to upload that picture of Cathy, that could have been taken by a drone through a window or a crack (since we don't actually know the building in which Cathy was captured).

Maybe that scene of Ron and Bert in the hallway when you choose to stay with Derek was a precursor for this whole shenanigan. They were discussing their plan to frame the DIKs and ruin their reputation by sabotaging their Rooster account while testing out the drone to ensure that it was fully functioning.

I never thought that Cathy Picture could have been a drone shot. Nice catch

And maybe that other nerd Eugene is in on it too !

I could imagine the nerds helping the MC. The MC gets along well with Magnar and no subordinate nerd will challenge the Terminator. Then there's the one guy with the chess club. The MC save Bert from the Weckie. The nerds are probably just pissed when the MC gets the job at the library. But the guys will spy on everyone. Yes knowledge is power and if the MC is a friend of the nerds, maybe he can and may use that knowledge. At the end of EP7, Magnar is standing in front of the Preps mansion. Well I am curious about EP8.

Magnar will remain friends with the MC until the end, as long as nothing happens with Sally.

I'm pretty sure that the nerds hate the preps like everybody and they could possibly help us take them down with information. Helping the chess club guy and saving Bert from that wedgie are optional and the nerds don't like you if you go full massive DIK...
But hey I could be wrong ! The nerds being responsible for Cathy is just a theory ! And you are the theory expert.

Try Terry Pratchett's books (if you didn't before ofc). The "Guards! Guards!" my all time favorite, it's just hilarious.

I hadn't seen this paragraph before, and maybe I'm late to the party with this idea, but the wording of that last sentence jostled something from my brain. People (jokingly?) think Bella is homicidal, and wonder about the make-out scene in the library where MC's inner monologue says something like "if I'd known I'd have called for help". What if she's not homicidal, but suicidal instead? We already know that she's deeply emotionally conflicted about her budding relationship with MC and her absentee husband, and that a lot of that conflict manifests as guilt. Maybe DPC's warning about being "in a dark period of your life" is a content warning for an eventual suicide plotline?

(Again, apologies is this has already been brought up and discussed, I've not been keeping up with the thread, to say nothing of the thousands of pages of posts that were here before I ever knew this game existed.)

I'm glad he's apparently being productive, but at this rate it might be August before I have a second set of data points for my charts.

In all seriousness, do you think that merely telling Sage she fell head-over-heals in love with a gay man will help her move on with her life if Chad still refuses to discuss the matter with her? I'm not seeing the benefit myself.

Don't get me wrong, Sage does deserve a proper explanation from Chad, but it's the from Chad that really matters here. For whatever reason, she invested a lot of herself into that relationship and he did not. Learning that Chad was lying to her even more fundamentally than she already thought seems likely to make matters worse unless she can also understand why this happened and thus what lessons she needs to take from the miserable experience.

And sadly, that's just not information the MC can provide because Chad being gay is only a small part of the explanation. The MC simply doesn't know the rest of it (at least as of right now); we don't know why Chad entered into the relationship in the first place. It could be he started with honest intentions only to find himself stuck when he realized he really was 100% gay (sort of like a couple who expects a child to save their marriage). Or it could be that he just saw Sage as convenient cover and never really gave a rat's ass about her.

Those are extremely different scenarios that would probably draw very different reactions from Sage, yet the MC's information can't really distinguish between them. And everything we've seen about Sage suggests that giving her wildly incomplete information won't result in her calmly seeking to complete the information; no, she'll probably assume the worst and lash out immediately. Which might just make everything WORSE if it turns out not to have been the worst case scenario.

That's why I think the MC should be slow to spill the beans on Chad's secret. It's not that he has some obligation to Chad specifically, but it's extremely unwise to reveal explosive, context-free information willy-nilly. Sage needs closure, not rumor.

Yeah, that's a nice moment to show that Tommy isn't a one-note villain while still keeping him very much Tommy.

Nope, witholding that info from Sage is basically saying "I know what's best for you". Try that with any woman IRL and see how it works.

Yeah, I have the same feeling about Bella. That's why player should either pursue just Bella or totally ignore her. Any other option gonna be devastating.

Or, y'know, you could just.... be friends? Isn't that a viable option? Would probably be less devastating compared to pursuing her while pursuing 4 other girls at the same time.

Rejecting Sage for the second time
View attachment 1249942

Click to expand...

never seen this image before! i have played the game over 100 times already!

It's technically the third rejection of her if you count thanking her for the dance at the DIK party instead of kissing her as the first time. I got this scene in my first playthrough.

Warscared said:
nice fan fiction dude this one goes straight to the impossible things in game just like not spanking sally! people keep saying its possible.... as if!

Does that come back around as an option later in the game (I only have the Steam version not the Patreon one)? In both of my main playthoughs, I didn't have enough dik points to pick that option in the Dungeons & Gremlins scene. I've heard there's another D&G scene later on, but I don't know the details of it.

I'm actually wondering if you can finish this game without having had sexual relations with anyone (dream sequences not counting). In my first playthrough, I think I kept shooting myself in the foot. I had the MC scarper from the sorority house as fast as humanly possible after Quinn found him (although I had Chick status so don't think he would've got the Camila scene anyway). He turned down Quinn's restaurant offer so didn't have any scenes with the HOTs she was pimping out. Technically there was the grinding Maya did on him, but as he got tazered before anything else happened I'm not counting that either. I deliberately had him lose the cumpetition so Quinn never got her way with him. He danced with Sage at the DIK party, then left without kissing her. Didn't kiss Maya before going home at the weekend. I picked 'Not Like This' when he went to see Josy. Told Sage she didn't have to pay him back for getting the video of Chad's phone call. Didn't try to kiss Isabella when she gave him a lift back to college. Didn't take it further during Sage's first guitar lesson. Removed his hand during the bed scene with Jill after being knocked out by Chad. Didn't offer to help Maya with her scavenger hunt. Did nothing with Jade at the lunch table. Told Sage he was just giving her guitar lessons (which is when the screenshot AchedCroissant posted happened). Let Derek do the DIK stuff at the Pink Rose. He gave Mona the underwear, but didn't have a high enough dik score to get the scene in the toilet block with her and Camila. He stopped Jade when she tried her little foot trick during gender studies.

By the end of episode three with the Maya/Josy reveal, the relationship tracker was saying that Sage had lost any and all interest in the MC and she was greyed-out when the choice of three came up after he leaves the dorm, so he ended up at Isabella's. However he didn't use the sunblock or splash her in the pool, thus nothing happened there. Also he didn't send Cathy the dick pic on Swyper, so she cut off communication. Now the main reason for refusing all these things up to this point was that I intended on him trying to court Jill on my first playthrough and she seemed like she wouldn't appreciate the MC being a man-whore. So up comes the first date with Jill at the tennis court. Okay, now I can get somewhere I thought. Only by being the gentleman and letting her shower first and not snogging her right away, the MC came away from the date musing that he wasn't that interested in Jill. I was going for slow and steady. I didn't think I needed him to shove his tongue down her throat on the first date to keep that path moving, but apparently I did need to, so it looks like that path's closing off, if not closed already. There's no more contact with Sage after refusing her at the second guitar lesson, so her path's gone. He turned down Jade and messed up with Cathy, so they're gone. He doesn't even register on any of the HOTs radar. And at the DIK party where the laptop is stolen, because he hasn't done anything with Maya and Josy up to now, they're not interested in anything more, so they part as just friends. He also doesn't smoke the weed, so nothing happens with Quinn, although I'm assuming the lack of dik points would have scuppered anything there anyway.

So tell me, how screwed is that first playthrough? I've still got the save for it, but at this point it feels like the only reason to continue would be as an experiment, to see if I could finish it without triggering any sex scenes at all. Unless that is the next few episodes give you the chance to turn things around? For most of that run, the MC's status was hovering between Huge Chick and Massive Chick and I'm thinking that didn't overly help either. Felt like being on the Chick side of the bar would be more beneficial when going after Jill, but maybe he was too chick?

Is there any word on when season two will hit Steam?
