if you've practically lived with someone for a long time and considered her as your sister, going on to consider her as just a girl is not immediate, at least not for everyone. and evidently for them it was a problem, an attraction to be repressed, on Jaye's part, and to be denied by MC
Lost Lost Lost you're forgetting this game is called "Chasing Sunsets" not "Intertwined"... Your theory would work for Nyx's game but not here
Technically, neither Jaye nor Mallory is really "incest" though both situations dance with it. Both relationships make the reader consider, hypothetically, what they would be comfortable with. Could you be intimate with someone you grew up with as siblings, or could you be intimate with someone who is a genetic clone of your mother BUT she is her own woman, she's your age, and has a completely different unique personality and appearance?
I, unsurprisingly, disagree. The MC's love for Jaye is at the heart of the story, but it's been 5 years since he ran away to put some distance between them and work out what he really wants. There's no need insist his answer has to be romantic love. The game would have worked far better if we could choose between romantic love, platonic love, and practiced disinterest (maybe with bitter resentment as an optional extra). The fact the game insists the MC go on a romantic date with Jaye even after everyone involved knows there's no romance here speaks volumes.
The historical reason why the incest taboo exists is not strictly religious, but related to the dangers of inbreeding.
that is an 'economic' problem, the whole chapter hinges on that appointment, so skipping it was impossible, however it is possible to deny yourself once again.
Nonsense. The dinner may be an economic necessity (if they don't want a very short chapter), but making it so obviously romantic was entirely optional. Add some people to the background in a few renders, drop the conversation about the MC's old conquests, make the dialog about the two of them finally hashing out their feelings as siblings, and end with them sleeping in separate beds and the problem goes away. I doubt that would have added even a full week to the production time. The failure is one of imagination, not resources.
No argument on those. It's frustrating how short the game's attention span gets once sex is off the table.
There are ways for couples to have children without risking birth defects. They would do what any other couple would do when they can't have kids. Adopt.
hehe, I was actually wondering about something... I know there is an option to "let" Jaye die on the boat... does she actually drown or someone else saves her? I like her character so I couldn't bring myself to leave her.
Lisa will go after her and she will snitch on you about you letting her drown and game over.
Definitely my favorite. But, after hanging out and reading this thread for a while, a dead end. It seems the options will be quite limited in how the story will be channeled. Oh well, nothing to do but cause large amounts of chaos (or at least as much as the game and Save Editor will allow).
Can you elaborate a little? I truly don't have it in me to hurt Jaye. Even in a "non-canon" playthrough. I wouldn't mind being an absolute asshole with Mallory but Jaye?...Nah can't do it.
If you want to keep ruining your relationship with Jaye she needs to be, you know, alive. So in that choice, it behooves you to use the scream for help option rather than the "smell you later sis" option.
However, if you have been doing sufficient ruining even jumping in to save her isn't enough to get you into the pillow fort. But that opens a different path that I won't spoil.
Now I'm curious, I was under the impression you have the option to jump greyed out, and you can only scream for help, or feed the sharks.If you want to keep ruining your relationship with Jaye she needs to be, you know, alive.
