tldr; Finished another scene where MC reviews Jamie's stolen photos. Curious to see the reaction to this one, as it's about as close to the dreaded 3-letter acronym as I plan to get. Blame my (lovely) patrons, they voted for it! And I'm hard at work on Mason's scene, trying to finish it out before the end of the week. I had to strip a minor visual thing out of the scene to speed up my rendering timeline and streamline things. But, it also made sense from a storytelling standpoint, so it worked out.
If you chose Viola's 'dirty show' and didn't humiliate her at the end, she's probably still willing to be chill with you. If you did, she's probably less inclined to
like you, but she might still tolerate working for you. Money's money.
Cards on the table, I only had Brittani approach MC instead of vice versa, because people had complained that MC was always the one to take the initiative, and it felt kind of predatory. I never really saw it from that perspective (I was just trying to give people the chance to turn girls down :'D ) but it kind of made sense. So, I figured I'd flip the script and have Britt make the first move.
In fairness to me (which I'm always in favor of
) the decision to have Jamie not be there if you skip sexual content with Britt was my attempt at constructing a consistent timeline for events.
The way I see it, if MC doesn't continue the shoot with Britt, she leaves pretty quickly after he wakes up. So, Jamie probably came back after MC and Brittani had left, and found nobody there. It's only if MC keeps Brittani around for a bit longer (like for an extended photoshoot, or a boobjob) that Jamie has an opportunity to return and interrupt.
I did the same thing with an earlier Gabby scene, but it was more subtle. Good-aligned MC has a talk with Gabby, either as a friend or a romantic interest. A shopper turns up right as they're finishing their chat on the friend path, while she shows up in the middle of Gabby teasing MC on the romance path. Meanwhile, MC with a bad relationship with Gabby has a very short, clipped conversation, and he's gone before the shopper ever arrives.
I'm not always
super consistent about this, but I try to keep events on the various paths to roughly the same length of time, and if one ends up shorter or longer, I try to reflect that.
