There are multiple red herrings, Siri and Delila. Maybe one of them is the blackmailer, maybe not, but the writing is quite good
Maybe add an asterisk and explain you've written about it elsewhere, because unless every reader here is also there, they wouldn't know. I'd say put a summary in, but it feels like you would find that offensive.I have addressed the developments with Delilah at length on the game's Discord server. I chose not to reproduce all of that here, because my bottom line conclusion, after discussing the new developments, is that Delilah is not the blackmailer. She hasn't moved either up or down on my list. If anyone is desperately curious about my thoughts on the new developments with her character, they can join the Discord and read what's been said there.
My decision to put Isabella on the "definitely not" list was not purely due to Rachel trusting her. I already made that clear. I don't accept that my reasons are "thin", just because you failed to parse them all.

People are claiming that Delilah is fixated on Ashe to the point of craziness. And intelligence, imagination, memory and focus are all factors that could contribute to her making a mistake. There is apparently a whole aspect of her life we don't interact with. Right now that kind of mistake does not make sense to you but if we had all the picture it might. And in the story Ashe is keeping stuff from Rachel so her thinking that Fiona told her and then later rationalizing it is on her only. Making Delilah a good candidate or a red hareng that some will be mad about if it is not her.
Her communication with Ashe. Сold-blooded, sarcastic and even cruel. At the same time, it is well thought out, and without unnecessary display of emotions.I'm trying to recall, what makes you call the blackmailer calm and calculating?
If she is able to find out Ashe's secret from nowhere and come up with such blackmail, then she will not screw up like that even in an unexpected situation. Not letting a person know that you know her secret, especially when you are secretly blackmailing her, is not some super impossible skill. You are trying to make Delilah look like a smart mind gamer, capable of finding out other people's secrets and organizing blackmail without being caught, and at the same time you are making her look like a fool, who in an unexpected situation immediately gets lost, screws up, and almost exposes herself as a blackmailer. This is not logical.Also, competence in one area doesn't transfer to all areas, so theoretical mistakes could happen. Whatever competence you're seeing in the blackmailer would be in a controlled situation for them. They pick the time, have probably prepared, send the first message, etc. If we're talking about a hypothetical blackmailer-Delilah on the bus she isn't prepared, she ran into Ashe, let a slip of the tongue reveal she knew Ashe's secret, was fed the info that Fiona knows (but not how recently) and jumps on that to cover for her slip. Seems perfectly within the bounds of possibility.
Humans and emotions aren't logical, but I have a feeling a continued back and forth will just end everyone restating their position over and over.Her communication with Ashe.

But not in this case. That blackmailer can't screw up like that. That would be a stupid plot twist. Especially for this well written game.Humans and emotions aren't logical, but I have a feeling a continued back and forth will just end everyone restating their position over and over.
Healthy theories and debates makes things solid from a narrative stand point. Makes people engage with others and talk about the game. Which is always good.At last. I think the dev is wetting his pants laughing about all the theories he created here with us. And that is making him a very good dev.
If you are able with your game to create chaos among the people following you, you are good!
Indeed. Since people discuss and build theories a lot, it means they like the story.At last. I think the dev is wetting his pants laughing about all the theories he created here with us. And that is making him a very good dev.

So if Duplo able to breed others, can she breed herself?Duplo Futa - This is the "true futa" for people who are sticklers about the genre. She has a cock, balls, and a pussy. In theory, she can both impregnate femmes and be impregnated by other futas, though this isn't certain. We're told in the game that one or the other set of equipment might not be useful for reproduction.
Yes and yes.So if Duplo able to breed others, can she breed herself?
Also is Mono common in Eruption Imminent's world? , like the "male" of EI universe?
No, I wouldn't find it offensive. I just am not willing to reproduce multiple lengthy posts in two places. Despite the amount of time I spend posting here and on Discord, these are mostly stolen moments for me, in what is otherwise a pretty busy schedule.Maybe add an asterisk and explain you've written about it elsewhere, because unless every reader here is also there, they wouldn't know.

There's no reason why you have to be persuaded by any of my arguments. I'm equally unconvinced by the arguments I've seen for Isabella's guilt. I might be right, or I might be wrong, and we'll find out which eventually. But you implied that my only reason for discounting Isabella as the blackmailer was that Rachel trusted her, when that was just one of the things I mentioned. This left me to conclude that you did not, in fact, parse the rest of my argument.And I can 'parse' your logic, I just don't weigh them to the same extent to feel it deserves "definitely not" status. I also don't necessarily agree with your assumptions or conclusions, but that's a separate point that I don't feel like debating over.
Successful self-insemination of duplos remains a "maybe" in the game world, at present. Perhaps we'll get a definite answer later, or perhaps it will just stay a maybe.So if Duplo able to breed others, can she breed herself?

From the importance of each choice so far, I would say that previous choices will influence some content. It may still be influence by your previous choices but you will get a version of it.with the forced choice between the 3 paths, do we need only 3 saves or will previous choices still make a difference to what content we'll be able to see inside a specifi route?
With all the important bits being decided by the path selection screen while MC was "high as a kite," in her own words. I feel like the true path should be a mix between all of them and not entirely based on how many points you have. Some parts of this game seems like it's mirroring real life in the context that shit happens but after the path selection screen, that feeling of randomness that our character reacts to kinda goes awayFrom the importance of each choice so far, I would say that previous choices will influence some content. It may still be influence by your previous choices but you will get a version of it.
