As for Kate, I'm not so sure and I don't have much hope that one day he'll realize he made a mistake of removing all the spotlight from her and giving it to Max, DS knows that college is what sustains Kate's story, he knows that there can be no room for another protagonist, he made an amateur writer's mistake, it seems he did it on purpose as I always said so his subscribers and audience could forget about her path. That's why he forces, he inserted a new character that I just now discovered the name, Elena, precisely for her to please Max's fans, being that there are other ways that could work better if he were in the Villa or even explore other places, like stripclub, nightclub, etc; as well as could have explored a little more other characters like Ann, Lisa, Sara and Kira and could even use some characters from Kate's story. But he decided to run over everything, to go over a story that he knew had strength and that his subscribers supported him precisely for Kate.
