We all know the loan situation with Maya went off the rails. While I agree that DPC messed up his explanation since there's no reason for the father (who deals in car sales so would very likely understand how loans work) would actually get his loan terms wrong, and although it's possible, it's unlikely that Maya would just remember incorrectly and randomly get the loan terms wrong, it's really not such a big deal.
Did DPC fuck it up? Yes.
Did DPC double down and fuck it up more? Yes.
Is it truly important to the plot that a technicality in the retelling of a blonde bimbo's loan details is flawed? Not really.
Are people harping on it over and over like it's grounds for DPC to be hung drawn and quartered? Yes...
DPC's own words:
"Sometimes I write about a topic I think I know something about, then realize I'm talking out of my ass."
The loan would be one of those times.
Now the Tybalt blackmail...
It's not about research. Tybalt lied. There is 100% no doubt that Tybalt lied. We know there were no witnesses. We know there was not huge grounds for a lawsuit. We know Tybalt made it all up to trick Jill into dating him and avoiding the MC. We know Jill is naïve. It's not about research. It's about Tybalt being a snivelling cunt.
Agree 100%. I've been saying this for ages. DPC did get the loan technicalities wrong. Or Maya did. Or Patrick did. But it's not important.
The game has so much to offer. To get bogged down on a few technicalities...
It's like what Bruce Lee says in "Enter the Dragon":
"Don't think. Feel! It's like a finger pointing away to the moon. Do not concentrate on the finger or you will miss all of the heavenly glory."
Whatever happens in DPC's story
is gospel in
his story. Even if it's wrong, it's what happens in his story.
Getting one aspect wrong in his story doesn’t mean he hasn’t researched other aspects of a story.
If I wrote about a loan situation, I wouldn’t research it since I’d rely on my current understand (having taken out a number of loans myself in the past), but who knows, I might still get it wrong.
But if I were to write about something like anal prolapse, I might have to do some research since I’ve never experienced that first hand.
Your logic is flawed. One mistake doesn’t prove he’s never researched anything for his game. Looks like you’ll be repeating Logic 101.
