In my opinion, it is completely irrelevant what baggage or problem a LI has. In a relationship (No matter which) there will always be problems and disagreements. The sun will not shine every day. And if you have a partner (in the game a LI), the problems will be solved together. DPC reflects the reality with these personal problems of the LI's. And that's what makes the game so interesting for everyone.
I too am not the biggest fan of Bella's really slim waist but her proportions fit her fine considering she's stocky, in shape grown women. Bella's bust and assets on a smaller girl (Josy, Sally, Riona size etc) would truly be ridiculous imo. View attachment 1137253
Her boobs and hips are a size or two too big, catering to the popular trope in many of the games here. Kinda reminds me of Lewdlab's games.
Her face and expressions though are quite intense and on the spot.
I wouldn’t go so far as to suggest the Nicole relationship is healthy. She honest with the mc, sure, but have any of you ever dated a stripper? That shit can play on your mind.
Plus she has a kid, he could be a little cunt, or he could be a good kid, but it’s unknown baggage at this point.
But definitely, the mc knows where he stands with Nicole - she really fucking likes him, no mind games. Compare that with the LIs:
I think we can forget about any of the Pink Rose characters being a love interest of the MC. There's way too much for DPC to do with the main characters without trying to develop side chicks from the local strip joint. Jill may be a prude and she may even be a virgin but she comes with far less baggage than any of the other known love interests. I guess he could go after Sally but she's just not that into him.

You're right, but we're in a realm of unreality where it can be as small as "I've never been intimate with a man before so we need to take it slow" to "my husband is in the freezer in the basement because I killed him". I err on the side of ridiculously dramatic because I don't know a single porn game that wasn't ridiculous in some way for the drama. If I start dating a girl and she's got a collection of her ex's faces I am out of there.

this. Bella’s face is truly her best asset and is what truly makes her stand out in a good way. I kinda wish she had the more realistic body type, since we already have Jade as the voluptuous milf teacher character.
That begs the question, exactly how much of Bella & MC's relationship is Jill aware of? Obviously she doesn't know about the sexual stuff, but have we ever seen the two discuss MC beyond Jill's dates with him and MC getting in trouble? Does Jill even know about the dinner date? Does she know that MC has potentially spent the night with Bella prior the slumber party the three of them had? I honestly never paid much attention to it, but Jill clearly picked up on something between MC and Bella when the topic of Bella's favourite song came up. I wonder just how "shocked" Jill will be when she finds out MC has been diddling her best friend.
Jill is happy that Bella likes the MC since she respects Bella’s opinion a lot.
If the Mc stays with Bella during the M&J drama, Jill gets a little pissed at Bella for not telling her, but she’s too naive to think it’s anything other than helping a friend out.
Imagine how both Jill and Bella would handle the MC getting that blowjob from Cathy.

to be fair, that’s one of the more normal pictures for her. She is kinda like Jill where depending on the scene you might see a crazy exaggeration or something more grounded. I mean, just look at that group beach picture posted a few pages back and it looks totally ridiculous.

I think she will be extremely disappointed in Bella, but more emotionally hurt from MC. Since Jill knows about Bella's "issues" she may chalk it up to her being lonely and having a weak moment, but MC is the guy she truly likes/loves so that one is going to sting a little more.
Not sure if you guys have been playing Becoming a Rockstar, but cheating in that game is sooo not recommended.
Even Jill who admitted she expected some competition probably would be shocked if she found out what the MC had been up to. My guess is she wouldn’t condemn him but she would probably decide he’s not the guy for her.
If it's really 14-20 episodes, I guess the DIK/CHICK o' meter will get permanent affinity by Episode 8 because we're almost out of room to make choices for those who haven't got permanent affinity yet.
So way back in the aftermath of the Episode 6 launch I had grandiose dreams of creating a spreadsheet to help plan my approach to the new Mansion Repair minigame. The idea was to keep the sheet simple and intuitive - which turned out to be a ludicrously complicated task.
I tinkered with the concept off and on since then, but there were still too many obstacles that needed to be overcome. As we approached the release of Episode 7, however, I was faced with the reality that I really would like a more idiosyncratic tool to help me keep track of what I was doing during the minigame on different paths, and to better comprehend how and when to transition between repairing the mansion and earning money. So I buckled down and committed to getting the blasted thing functional.
And here we are. It's not quite as simple as I originally hoped, but it's a decent compromise given what's possible in Excel without using macros or VBA (at least given my skill level). I've found it very interesting, so I went ahead and made a slightly more streamlined version in case anyone else is interested.
Before we get started, I need to give a heartfelt thanks to fakitap and Hurensohn Heigl for teaching us all how the minigame worked and what the best ways to approach it might be. I also need to thank Meushi for getting me the stats on all the job opportunities. I'd never have finished this without your help; honestly, I'd probably barely have started. So thank you all very much!
And with that, here's my Mansion Minigame Tracker.
EDIT:
I've updated the Tracker to include Episode 7, which basically boils down to $6 from jobs prior to Round 5. I also added a DIK Experience Allocation Tester to the Jobs sheet (scroll to the right), to help give some idea of how best to allocate points to a DIK for the purpose of working lucrative jobs. To that end, I also have some advice on how best to spend experience so as to minimize the need to save-scum once you start trying to earn money.
Updated to v2.1 to fix a glitch in Mansion Salvage Overkill tracking.
Updated to v3.0 to incorporate the final rounds in Episode 8. I also added a new tab to track progress on repairing the mansion if mini-games are turned off.
I think she will feel betrayed by Bella and hurt by the MC, probably gonna become a nun after that, if we go by her personality. Jokes aside, i'm curious about what will be her reaction if you're on Bella's path, but things with Jill have already fizzled out.
Will she understands that her and MC are not so compatible and support him and Bella? Or, will she blame Bella for things not working out between her and MC?
That's something that can be interesting when we get to the endgame and every piece starts falling in it's place.
That is precisely my concern. Episode 5 was nothing more than a thin story stitching together a plethora of lewd scenes, and it's the low water mark of BaDIK by a wide margin. I'm not eager to repeat that barely a year later.
