If it's like some kind of Mass Effect style, than, the easiest solution is simply put your save files to the new game save folder.
Or at least one of your save file, like the end of each episode when it say " save Now " . You save there and carry that save file to the new game, and after season 3 over, you save again and carry that main save file to the new season etc etc etc.

If you are right he is going to divide a game in two or more parts.
So if new part comes we can put choices manually right ?

If you are correct some the the characters story going to end very soon by the end of the game.

Well you kind of a giving me a hope. That in the end everyone can have ending they desire.

Manually entering hundreds of choices we had?

Normal way to do it (like Rebirth does it, for example) would be to make a save at the end of Episode 8 which will later be used to start Episode 9

Twitt starting, in addition of the development table, here one about the number of Rooster teaser prior to a release.
As you can see DPC used to release about 8 of them in a month in the early before switch to a 3 months format.

Seeing how the development seems to close to end, we could get back to the early format for the Halloween release.
We will have to wait the next teaser to see which pattern it will follow.

Episode	Nb of Rooster	prior Release	Ratio	_______________________________________
EP3	7	25 days (≈3 weeks)	3.6
EP4	8	34 days (≈5 weeks)	4.3
EP5	8	99 days (≈14 weeks)	12.4
EP6	8	95 days (≈13 weeks)	11.9
EP7	11	82 days (≈12 weeks)	7.5
EP8	1	in development

Not necessarily. He might just have some default profiles with preset choices for new games started at Season 2.

No.. .
Please do that to me. I don't keep any save file.
Now comes real question does someone else save work or how about moded save.
If not i am served upside down.
i don't know about you man but preset choices don't cut deal with me.

The new seasons will import all of your old choices as if it was just one long game.

Any transient variables that are not relevant to the future episodes can be dropped, cleaning up the memory use, but just imagine it's the same as if the game was one big game (the way it is now) except you load the seasons with different executables.

Josy not even best girl that starts with the letter J.

You know deep inside that Jade is superior in every way to Josy.

Josy is a side character in the Maya story, might as well be Patrick with small tits.

Except my post was explicitly about scenarios where you don't have any saves to import. That's a scenario that needs to be accounted for - players new to the game in Season 2 that never played Eps 1-8.

I noticed he hasn’t started to post the Rooster‘s on Twitter yet, which
suggests he is still quite a way off.

I think he just cba posting Rooster things on twitter anymore you can look back at his previous tweets and he put Rooster things up during all 6 months of development of the previous episode.

One of the reasons I’m convinced DPC stalks this forum is the number of times something is mentioned, and then within a week he does something to contradict.

at which point the diary would be used to introduce a character who would then appear directly in the story to reveal some secret...

at which point what clue would the necklace be?

Well the necklace would be a visual Easter egg, something to say this is the same character, and was meant to be when she was introduced in Episode 7. It creates a tangible connection between two characters who no longer look alike.

If it's like some kind of Mass Effect style, than, the easiest solution is simply put your save files to the new game save folder.
Or at least one of your save file, like the end of each episode when it say " save Now " . You save there and carry that save file to the new game, and after season 3 over, you save again and carry that main save file to the new season etc etc etc.

Well, he has to make it work for people who don’t spend hours of their lives in forums that focus a lot on games that run in Renpy. Yes, it’s fairly straight forward to transfer a save manually, but by making the game do it for you it reduces the risk of less tech savvy players fucking it up.

This is what he is doing, but he’s also creating a programme so it can be done automatically, and not require the files to be moved or copied manually. At least that’s the impression I got.

And I thought my mom make spicy dishes.

You might not like it or need it, but I saw that one on an Admin of the DPC Discord.

 

[Ilhares]

So, when do you guys think the new episode will be out? Any predictions?

No. There's only 30 pages or more prior to your post that have discussed exactly that.

 

[godkingxerxes]

New Secret Josy preview. Guess we getting NTR boys.

Don't see why they'd play Season 2 and not Season 1, but if they did (or if they lost their import/save file), they'd just have to ask for it here, the same way people ask for save files now. It's really no different.

Josy is a side character in the Maya story, might as well be Patrick with small tits.

I reckon after episode 7, we can't really say that about Josy anymore. She came into her own during that episode!

 

[EfontMan]

I'm sure DPC will add that to the instructions. "Just stop by your local piracy forum if you are new to the game".

It does seem she starting to become her own character. But she can revert back just as easily. Outside of the gym previews, the other ones have been with Maya.

so before, for the previous six chapters, it was true?

The impression, however, is that Josy's recreation is over.
