Your headcanon's as valid as mine! Like I said, I play pretty loose with it. Maybe instead of arriving in the city and working for a few years to build a nest egg, he left home with some money he'd saved, sunk it all into crypto, and then ten years later he's a burnt-out 30 year-old with more mileage on his body than most in his age group.

The important thing isn't really how old he was when he left, or how old he is now. What's important is that he left home young and full of fire, and years of hardship broke him down -- until he gets a second chance at life.

This is the same as when people get really hung up on the exact figure of his wealth. A lot of people obsess over it, like -- "Well, if he had $26,000,000 in crypto, after taxes, platform fees, and the devaluation of his meme coin as he exited with most of the liquidity, he'd really only have *wet fart sound!*" The exact number doesn't matter.

How rich is Guy? Wealthier than everyone he knows, except Carl Rhodenbarr.

How old is Guy? Appreciably older than Gabby, a bit older than Nicki, and roughly the same age as (or younger than) Madison.
Honestly he can still have whatever amount they said but that just happens to be the amount he started investing. I remember in game he even said he has multiple investments so his income could be much more than stated. Either way it doesn't matter, he is making more money then he initially had which is supported by the in game chat with Nicki.

Trying for late March right now.

I took December off, and January was spent writing, building sets and characters, etc. So, as of now I'm still pretty early into the actual rendering process.
Take all the time you need. You are a dev who actually puts effort in and doesn't actively string patreons along for years with false promises. (If you know who I'm talking about good for you.)

Well, there's always Brittani's mom. :whistle:
I suggest Viola's coworker and Jamie's "helper" (and even she had her pictures taken without her knowledge while she showered by her partner in crime) Tessa. Last time Viola was left fuming when her colleague went to take her break and left her doing all the work.

My guess is we end up liking her, at least some of us, Neon always gives us a good reason why they are like that and then we go "Poor thing, I can fix that with money".

I mean, it is called Valentine..

And I prefer to think that if you’re nice to her, you’re a small reprieve from a difficult night. Sometimes a situation just is what it is. Even if you can’t change it, you don’t have to make it worse.

Thank you Neon, that was a great read. Now I wish it was a full game.
Thanks, Joshy! I wish I’d have had more time to really expand that conversation, buuut the main thing I wanted was to get to that ending. >_>

As for it being a full game.. One idea I’ve had for my post-FiN life is to revive The Student Loan as a 5-6 episode game, with similar themes. It’d be kind of a cat and mouse story, with Riley and her Professor interacting anonymously through her OnlyFans account, and their relationship developing until it culminated in their meeting. I need to give more thought to it, but I think it’d be a lot of fun. After FiN wraps up, I’ll be ready to do something a bit more finite, with a single love interest. :’D
