Update (a couple of moments after posting above), now going to Ch 13, it's showing choices I never made or even knew that I had a choice to make. I had noticed this before, but it was so small of a choice change that I thought that it didn't matter. Like when going from Ch 10 to Ch 11, I think it was, it said in the recap that Kathy asked me if I thought Heidi was Bi. In my playthrough of the Chapter, Kathy never asked me that question. Now in the recap of Ch 12, it says that Heidi and Kathy asked me out and things got out of hand leading to me fucking Kathy I guess. That choice of question about going with those two never came up in my playthrough.

So, what could be going on with my online backup saves?


And yes, to Kathy more interesting.

With change ch 13, you’ll need to use the cheat: ch13nothreesome

As for backups, it could be changing your relationship and diner name to default, but don’t quote me on that.

I know you said "don't quote me on that" But I am for this post. I just don't understand why it would change them so far into the game. Does, at leat the Downloaded versions of the game transfer to the next DL version. I know it doesn't work for online version for download versions. I am wondering if playing the downloaded version's save carry to the next chapter.

Some turns I hope NOT to see the game take ...

1. MC starts singing "Cecilia - you're breaking my heart / You're shaking my confidence daily ..." ... for a whole episode.

2. Cecilia is in fact the MC's estranged wife (Elaine was the MC's sister-in-law): Amanda was lied to all along. Hence her mood.

3. Saul is revealed as Vladimir Putin in cunning disguise. He throws off the false eyebrows, strips to the waist, and confiscates the town.

4. Lily is in fact Mortelli's daughter, and has made it her job to spy on everyone else in the cafe.

5. Pissed at the MC, Amanda has shacked up with Mortelli and is carrying his child. Her keeps her "barefoot and pregnant" in a secret desk drawer at the PD, feeding her bananas and even more false rumors than before.

6. Kathy, in despair at the way everything has gone, takes to massive doses of heroin, bubblegum and crack, back and sack, and walks the streets to feed her addictions.

7. All Heidi's secrets come out: she has been "escorting" for a year with Saul, Mortelli aka: Jabba The Hutt (what, you didn't know?), Dracula, Vito Corleone and Hannibal Lecter, and is now pregnant with twins, or possibly triplets. She neither knows nor cares by which father or fathers, because she's crazy about them all. She's also a vampire reincarnation of Rita Hayworth, and a zombie to boot.

8. MC turns to cannibalism: after consuming a truckload of burgers, he ACTUALLY has Amanda for dessert.

9. I dreamt the whole thing: the game never existed. Bobby Ewing and Marion Crane step out of twin showers, and shriek.

is there any milf or all teenagers?
DfD, or the new game?

Heidi is hardly a teenager. Would put her mid-20s. Veronica nor Olivia neither. Each of them late 20s at a guess. Amanda and Kathy both seem about 18-19, though Amanda behaves younger, poutier.

And then Lanie/Elaine in flashbacks: 25-30? (Would now be 40-45, but didn't get that chance.)

Kathy and Lily are great and all, but I'll be having High Tea with Heidi, thank you very much.
I doubt you'd be drinking much (especially not tea).

Or eating much, either. At least in a literal sense. ~ Though, sandwiches .... well ...

I might only play the open version, but I already made some points in former posts. I played the game as far as I could again and STILL my opinion stands: very poor implementation of the aunt and following that character derailment of Amanda due to this.

I do not speak about if Amanda gets more or less sympathetic, I speak from a writer´s perspective on character. I write stuff myself. I have two free stories in the works and out for reading ATM and I might not be Goethe or Hemingway, but I know something about characters.
No matter if it is a character or event-driven story, the characters we make do not exist in a vacuum. They will react to events impacting them and they will do so according to their character build. If we want OoC reactions then we need to work for it.
One thing would be extreme pressure like a gun to the head, not wanting to die might override the normal typical reaction.
We could do a "Chekov´s Gun" situation in earlier chapters, introducing an important plot point or gimmick.
We could introduce the confrontation step by step over chapters.
Or we could solve such behaviour later on, wheels in wheels plans, but DFD is the wrong genre for this, it is not e.g. "The Maltese Falcon" or "The Big Sleep" where treason or fake treason is just around the corner.

What happened in DFD was not that. What happened here was you wanted to introduce an obstacle and that Aunt was a good obstacle and even dumping it fast and solid into the game was not the problem. The problem was you deciding that Amanda is a late teenager and as such should be prone to unreflective, irresponsible behaviour. And with that the wall was hit. Even teenagers act with some consistency to their character traits. The Amanda of DFD and all the early chapters was as follows:
a) Pursued her Dad
b) knew her Dad loved and was always there for her
c) helped her Dad save the diner and repairing the jukebox and is shown as rather grown-up for her age
d) knew her Dad loved her Mom
e( knows that the aunt would say and do anything to destroy the MC
f) the aunt did not care one bit about Amanda her whole life
g) (While I can go only from spoilers in part) the Aunt does not even have doctored "proof" and the story about the MC was fishy from the beginning

So Amanda has zero reason to believe her aunt in the first place, even a cloudcuckooland teenager (which Amanda is defintely not as introduced in DFD) with such a beckground would not take the bait. and it got worse, because the absurd coldness towards the MC within the drop of a hat.
Even if you might try for a "deep cover" Amanda, there is a problem. You made her too cold, too bitchy and abusive towards the MC with no reason. The sinlge sex scene in 14 does not come across as "stuck between places", but as a "pity fuck" at best. The last couple chapters of DFD are a character assassination of Amanda at it´s best, simply because you chose to override established character traits without reason or preperation, just for a story event. Sorry if this sounds harsh.
