100% agree on condom use. Can’t remember what comedian said it, but the statement generally was - “nothing makes porn less sexy than condoms and the reminder of the threat of std’s.” Well, in the world of Donutstan, their are no std’s, but condoms carry for me that reminder of the real world. My hope is that MDots and Hearsz agree and D will never use condoms.

Obviously Elena is a shoe in. Obviously. /. Given Jeff’s statement to MC, you have an obvious male possibility. —. In the secondary group and not so obvious are Georgina and Elena - followed finally by Cassandra. So there are my predictions as a team member. Really, the first two are shoe ins and the others may or may not pan out. The future is in flux.

Back home at last. Now there is a chance we can see Margo and Olivia again. The two hottest dames in the show.

"Roman Holiday" is a great parallel ! Yes, as you and others here have discussed, I guess Chapter 3 was hoped to offer more of the growth and real-world elements into (what I have felt was) a fantasy which finally gets realized. Because, now that 20 is out, the real work begins for these characters. It seems that the team has decided to make their big play and so much can go either or both wrong and right, from now on. For all the triumphs that this lastest installment offered, I feel more nervous and worried for these characters than every before - even since the end of Chapter 1.
That's very interesting insight you shared on the Melody plot: although I feel it's clear that the MC needs to rebuild his own life through the story, up to this point I was seeing Melody as the both the catalyst and reason to do so. The two-character purpose you mention makes very clear sense with respect to what's been offered thus far, though I feel that the MC is less "semi-broken" and more "taking a step back to reassess where to go next" from how he's been portrayed thus far.
Still, anyone who has gone through a break-up or divorce knows what it's like to feel at least a bit broken, so maybe Melody is more of a healing spell that also remakes his outlook...

Yes. Elena and the DAD. Not the DAUGHTER (D).
There is no confrontation with the daughter, but Elena is outright calling the Dad&Daughter relation out in the talk at the school - to which the Daughter's reply is .. pretty much nothing.

So, I have played through 20 via my preferred D-only path and am now going back through it with the "harem" enabled. Then, I'll try D-only again to ensure all the perspectives make sense.
Because I am so verklempt right now. Why am I so emotionally invested in D's present happiness and future well-being?
And incredibly nervous about their futures, despite the massive crescendo of their latest day:
How many installments are we expecting for Chapter 2, again? Wondering about how much opportunity there is to begin dealing with these and other issues.
Without a Chapter 3, I've said that it would be fine if we are left with a somewhat ambiguous ending, but there would need to be viable, compelling possibilities we can consider before that could happen. Right now, it feels like we're essentially at a new Day 1.

And incredibly nervous about their futures, despite the massive crescendo of their latest day:
- Rachel still wants to win, win, win and now she wants to save face, too
- Elena still has that incriminating picture and D has said she has loose lips
- MC needs a job and might be in competition with Richard (and his brother, assuming he gets out of jail somehow) if he goes for photography
- D is going to experience the post-honeymoon phase for the first time in her life... reality is not a fairy tale, but learning to love despite the daily grind is sublime
- If you are on the harem route, Georgina and Jennifer are potentially disruptive players

D was shown thinking to herself that Elena is not stupid and that everything she offered made perfect sense. D was already gone in her mind and heart by that point and just accepted that Elena was being the same, supportive friend that she has been portrayed as consistently in this VN, I feel.

Cool, thanks.Quick FYI. If you're encountering this error when saving a game:
While it needs a proper fix, you can temporary solve this by typing this in the console:Code:I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While running game code: File "game/screens.rpy", line 282, in __call__ File "renpy/common/00action_file.rpy", line 372, in __call__ renpy.save(fn, extra_info=save_name) RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while pickling an object
sys.setrecursionlimit(2000)
or make an empty file in \DMD.CH2-0.20-pc\game\ , name it whatever (but add .rpy as a fileextension) and in a texteditor type in:
init 1:
python hide:
sys.setrecursionlimit(2000)
..You just need any value over the default, 1000.
This should help you save your game properly for now.
If this have already been mention, sorry for spamming. But not reading this thread yet due to potential spoilers.
Enjoy what seems like a really good DMD-release so far
I found that after deleting all the auto*.save files in
x:\Users\account\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\DMD-1469236204
and
x:\DMD.CH2-0.20-pc\game\saves
That I was able to make new saves without that error message, as well. YMMV.

No. In real life no. Now my real wife, she is D’s height and build but is a redhead and is a college professor.

Yeah I was about to post the exact same thing. Elena never let D know she knew.
Yes, Elena knows something is going on but D doesn't know that Elena does. Yet what Elena tells D is (para-phrasing) "I spoke to your father and if you two decide to take your relationship to the next level I think he's going to make it very romantic for you". At that point D reacts as if they've already discussed this and even mentions Elena knowing everything about her but this conversation never happened.
