he can get a refund. and even if not, it's just sunken cost fallacy anyway.The flight was already paid for months in advance.
but you're right, MC is kinda dumb like that throughout the game with his decision making. and it's even worse than I remember. I thought it was his dad that paid for it. MC having to pay himself is pretty telling to how his dad really valued their relationship.
totally forgot about his grandparents. I'm not even sure I ever read MC had grandparents before. was it a changed line ? with how little they are mentioned, he could just have videocalled themGrandparents prolly moved to the UK with Orion and his Da so that they could stay close...or his mum's from the UK but he still kept in touch with her parents after she left.
Regarding Chang...well, we've seen his flashback. Prolly wasn't keen on going back for a while since he has more freedom in Kredon. Plus he has a woman to rizz and he seems VERY determined to get her.
As for Annie...well, she's prolly either saving her cash as you say or maybe she's like Chang and wanted to spend time doing her own thing now that she's away from home. Regardless, we'll probably never know.
I think Chang would have kept MC company if needed, as a true bro, knowing how shitty MC's dad is. but that plane ticket cost might be steep.
I think is also a bit insecure about her grades and might have wanted to focus on her studies to catch up a bit, too. but yeah, we'll never know. though, it was the start of her romance with MC. that's why she might have wanted to spend time with him alone when in the UK. it was a good opportunity to get him for herself without the other girls. she missed out
though if Chang staying because of a girl was good enough, then MC had 7 just as good reasons to stay and rizz
yeah, the result of that choice that happens later seems bad. but it doesn't matter to what you said as the reason at first. just the fact that the choice is recommended in the walkthrough. not the outcome we get later down the line.I mean this is what happens if you do take it and you die in the Collector event.
Pretty much screams "major antagonist got yo ass now" vibes to me.
and even that scene, honestly. we don't know anything about what it actually means. it's a bad foreshadowing for sure, especially when we know that the founder can control the soul of the dead and thus it might be him intercepting MC's soul just as he was dying because we now know for sure it was MC's real body. but it might just be intentionally misleading and deceitful.
