I do not know what you mean by writing "maybe we can finally have a romance with Lisa (sigh)."
I believe that everything is possible and Lisa will be far away from Alice;s blackmai,l porn shhots or something even worse.
Ultimately, he can only stay with Max
I meant that romance with Lisa might be possible in this new game, now that IC won't be involved. Because it is painfully clear that that ship has sailed in the current game. 10 bucks says that the only 'romance' we get from here on out in BB is with Olivia. It is what it is, I guess.
Yeah he steals out the only girl that ever shows interest with you, THEN DS fucking gave you the way of getting her back (back, yeah riiight she won't do fuck all afterwards anyways) BUT you have to give cuntrag Alice instead.... Godmoded fucking bullshit.
Thankfully though it's all entirely avoidable. Unfortunately only if you have prior knowledge, the game was set up for you to just fail miserably at that point.
That's why I barely consider it avoidable. If there is no reasonable way to avoid Eric taking the girls without gaming the system (by not starting quest chains when any normal player totally would) it's avoidable as a technicality more than anything else. It really shows how badly the Eric stuff was handled. Had the player had more options and more ways to fight back early on, or advantages for working together with the prick, I think he would not be nearly as hated as he is now.
The day 45 thing is fixed in Fires version. The special thing with Marie only affects your occasional nightime visits from her, but I agree it'd be a bummer to miss them. I've never done Carol before Sarah but as far as I know it's just that toilet scene isn't it? Not sure what you mean by the Sarah plotline getting screwed, never happened to me. A lot of the quests become reliant on other quests though so they can appear borked if you get tunnel vision and don't try the other quests to move things along.
Well you can mess up the date, and that will permanently end the quest line. You can mess up the party, and that will also permanently end the quest line. The Carol stuff cuts out all the first sexy shit you could do when you visit her to study for the project. I think there is other stuff too, but it's been months since I played that game in earnest. The last few updates have bored me to tears as they have been nothing but grinding to do home visits, which wasn't too bad the first few times I did it, now with 10 or so girls to grind. I can't be arsed to do it at all anymore.
