No worries. I'm sure they did. The wrong things. Kids learn more by seeing than teaching. You can tell them what's good and bad, but if your actions don't match up with your words, they don't mean shit.
I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, but I also think people put too much blame on the parents. Afaik, a child's personality, while obviously affected by their home environment, is also pretty genetic. So, you could be the best parent on the planet and still end up with a pos.

Also, I think there has been a large body of research that basically shows that peer groups and I guess society at large have far more influence on how your child turns out than the parents themselves. That's always made me raise an eyebrow, but I've heard multiple scientists that I respect refer to that research, so... they must be pretty strong cases. I'm not smart enough to look at the data and judge it for myself.

Science isn't my bag, so I can't argue the point. But a lot of science now a days, my opinion, is based more on hypothesis than actual facts.

Well, not going to go down that rabbit hole, then, haha. All I can say is your view of science is skewed and I recommend, if you ever feel curious enough to take the time, listening to credible scientists who specialize in educating the public on how the process of science works and how it affects our day-to-day lives and our future :)

Segwaying back to the game, if you had to guess, which characters would love science and which would hate it? I know it's a porn game haha and I bet no one cares so I'll play this little game all by myself :) But... hmm... I'd say that Mason is the most likely to be a science-enjoyer. Wren has that feeling as well to me, don't really know why. Nicki I bet has at least a passing interest, simply because anyone who's a bit on the nerdy side and into video games usually has some gravitation to that subject, at least the pop-science aspect. Carolina would be a surprise, but I think I can see it in her too, I'd believe it.

On the other hand, Gabby, Brittani, Pepper, and Ashe I bet find it boring, though admittedly this is just going on tropes and stereotypes :p Thinking that Gabby and Ashe did well in it regardless, though. Madison too for that matter, though less certain. Pepper comes off as the type of student that would do well in the classes she loves, whether it was the subject matter or teachers, and gives the bare minimum in classes she hates, not caring whether she gets a C or an A, or hell maybe even the occasional D or F. Not like her parents give a shit either way I bet. No opinion on Viola, really... other than I bet she does well in school given her desperate situation.

Obviously, this is just guesses. I don't claim to have a firm understanding of the characters and I'm almost certain Neon himself hasn't planned this far :LOL: Fun to consider, though.

Pass on that. Science and religion are the two most boring subjects. As for who would be into it in the game, I have zero clue.

Well, science is basically a bunch of hypothesis about why things do the things they do. Then you have pseudo-sciences, which are very popular in the recent years, that are about having hypothesis about why things do things they totally don't do but you pretend they do. They call it being progressive.

I swear there was a story about a researcher/ group of researchers from one of the Ivy League schools intentionally spoofing some data to heavily skew things in favor of the initial hypothesis. Definitely makes you wonder sometimes... but I heard they were behavioral psychologists so who cares?:LOL: (Nah, I'm just kidding. That's an incredibly dishonest thing for them to have done and things like that may have negative impacts down the road on how some organizations are led, etc. )

Segwaying
Nah, man. It's "segue". A segway is what Paul Blart rode on in the critically acclaimed movie, "Paul Blart: Mall Cop".

Also, yea we really need that update soon lol. Once people start deep diving this hard, it gets into some weird territory. Then again, this thread gets into some weird territory at least once a week so idk.

That's a wise observation as the ardent defenders of each are often themselves brainwashed zealots blindly following whichever snake oil salesmen has enchanted them. Between mystics and atheist, there are many similarities.

The only thing that matters ladies and gentlemen
Is that we treat Nicki like the goddess she is.

Nicki if you are reading this don't worry.
I won't even look at another girl you are the only one for me.

I hope she reads this message guys.
Do you think she will?

I'll be in every other game's thread to remind you this.
As much as Joshy92 states he hates cheating, he's the biggest cheater out of all of us. Not to mention he lies to all his girls. "Oh baby, you're my goddess. My one and only true love." Poor Joshy's gonna end up sad and alone. But never fear! His corner will always love him. :ROFLMAO:

Joshy, gets it. Lol. He takes Friends in Need to a whole new level.

Do it. I see both of you on enough of them to make this entertaining for me while I wait for the updates.

I have been thinking about the sex scenes in this
And I have to say they are really fucking sexy imo
I really like that scene where Mason gives the mc a bj
That scene was phenomenal.

And don't worry everyone.
I made sure to choose all the nice guy options.

Another scene I really like is when the mc can eat out Gabby
There are a few different options scenes which I think is awesome.

So yeah, I just have to say the sex scenes are top tier.
And I think the dialogue makes them even hotter.

I actually haven't played Friends in Need since the last update. I upgraded my storage but the save files for this game somehow got fucked up so I'll need to replay it from the beginning. I was going to replay it but with the update being so close, I kind of lost that window of time where it could still be "fresh" and not have to grab the latest version so soon after replaying it.

Yeah, at this point I would wait for the new update too.

I'm really looking forward to the redo of chapter 1
It's going to be interesting to see What changes with Nicki
Or if she stays the same.
Content wise I mean.
I know her look isn't changing
