Just finished the latest update with most routes. Just to get some theories right and to see what other say:

Thanks for any answers, good update in which Val really shined. Still have to go for an Elena run and Nikki/Cara, however I honestly care about their storyline the least.

1. Yes it seems so.
2. Maybe, we don't know yet. She is the most likely suspect.
3. Levi was her boyfriend or a boy she liked anyway, when she was 16-17 who she met at nationals but he lived far away. Did you not listen to Val's story while on the beach date? She explains all of this and who those two assholes are.
We don't know who gym/park guy is yet, but is most likely Zane/Mr Donovan IMO.
4. I doubt it. Most likely he gave her a warning to stay out of his business if she helped the MC. Her phone was knocked out of her hand and smashed when Ethan bumped into her. This is most likely why the MC can't get a hold of her.
5. I wouldn't take too much notice of the tattoos. John is almost certainly going to be both Erynn and Iris's father.

Yea cant imagine that Melissa would ever hurt her daughter by competing with her over a man. Probs have to be on the friend path with Erynn to even think about unlike her love path

I believed that until Nyx's recent Q&A where she gave an answer that could be interpreted as even main LIs could be there to spoil other relationships.

She gave the list of LIs then said that other girls might or might not become LIs or might only exist to spoil relationships with the LIs and then in brackets put "maybe even the main LIs", which most people think means that the non-LIs are there to spoil to relationship with main LIs, but then that's already happened in the story so didn't need to be stipulated.

But it could mean that an LI also spoils relationships with oher LIs, unless you count Elena path as spoiling the Layla relationship (again that's already happened so didn't need to be stipulated) the only real candidate for doing it amongst the confirmed LIs is Melissa only being available by spoiling the Erynn relationship.

What makes you think that they can't share?

Everyone knows that if you keep Erynn at a distance the stakes are much lower, which is why we are discussing a possible Erynn-Melissa combo where the stakes are through the roof.
No relationship, i can see Erynn being surprised at the MC entering a relationship with her mom, but i don't see her opposing it really.

If you do have a Erynn relationship however, Erynn would be devastated if something ever happens, it would ruin her relationship not only with the MC but also with her mom.
So this is the big question we are asking, would Melissa dare to ruin her daughters happyness for her desires?



Meh... no Mommy Brooke for me, i rather have her calling me Daddy .

Yea, Melissa was scared of pissing off Erynn over a joke that went too far; no way do I see her even thinking about risking her relationship with her daughter over a boy toy. But yea keeping Erynn at arm's length is probs the most obv way to open the melissa path.

I forget, are we over the halfway point in planned content yet? I thought we were like 60%-70% or so of the way through since we were going to the end of the school term and we're just getting off spring break? If so, Melissa's route is gonna have to start soon or it's just gonna be Melissa ending, unless Intertwined 2 happens.

not gonna lie gonna be bummed if Nyx decided to do the other game / story instead of Intertwined 2.

I have a hard time seeing it too, i strongly suspect having an active Erynn relationship will block Melissa.

But you never know... maybe her midlife crisis will get worst and Melissa will cross this line giving us the combo to end all combos.

MC and Erynn had a conversation which said we are "less than 2 months" away from the end of the school year/summer break.
In game time we are about to enter week 6, so we are at 50% or a bit less... at least in terms of days passed, there's still a lot of time on the schedule...

No idea how Nyx plans to fill this much time, time in the real world and game time is often a problem in games that go day by day, how to keep things fresh and exciting with how long it takes in the real world.

Personally hate games that end right after you start the relationship/make a relationship official, so i hope none of the LIs here have to deal with this, but Nyx is the one in charge.
Many relationships have been solid for awhile, while others haven't even started... can't get a read on what Nyx's plans are...

Despite Nyx affirming she has plans... it feels like a somewhat unbalanced, unplanned, shooting from the hip style instead of a rigorous structure where every LI gets the same amount of time(Unplanned doesn't mean worst than the rigorously structured style, just saying how it feels).

I hope for the other game. I really love to play Intertwined, but let's face the fact: sequels are always shit.

I wouldn't say always. Maybe usually. u4ia is looking good, and definitely a sequel to LoD. Eternum is far better than its predecessor (though OIALT is pretty good, too).

Were there any details given, or was it just that Nyx has ideas for another game? Either way, it would be straight onto my list regardless of content, she has more than enough credit in the bank from this game.

 

[theolin]

does mom has any sex content????
does brooke has ant sex content???

1. Not with MC
2. No

and of course for better or worse, Being a dick is better than acting lessons

Not a sequel at all though, so not really part of the discussion.

sequel/ prequel same ballpark

 

[Tremonia]

u4ia is looking good, and definitely a sequel to LoD.

It's not a sequel.

Eternum is far better than its predecessor (though OIALT is pretty good, too).

Once in a Lifetime was funny, Eternum started good, but now it's just mediocre. Also not a sequel.

Were there any details given, or was it just that Nyx has ideas for another game?

She once mentioned a fantasy story. Could be anything and nothing.

Y'all need to learn the definitions of sequel and prequel. Miles: just because they're by the same creator doesn't make it related, which sequels and prequels are. They are related to the previous work, either taking place after (sequel) or before (prequel). Acting Lessons has no relationship at all with BaD (though they both mention the school and fraternity, AL doesn't fit in the timeline of BaD, it seems to be the genesis of the thought that became BaD). There is no canonical connection.

Tremonia: OAILT and Eternum not only take place in the same universe, they refer to each other. Though they are different genres (maybe), they are definitely related, so Eternum is a sequel. Quality has no impact on it. u4ia is definitely a sequel to LoF, as there is character overlap, and continuation of the timeline from LoF. It is NOT LoF2, but it is a sequel.

 

[Tremonia]

So what. Most of the movies takes place in this universe and they're not sequels.

Though they are different genres (maybe), they are definitely related, so Eternum is a sequel.

Urm... no.

u4ia is definitely a sequel to LoF, as there is character overlap, and continuation of the timeline from LoF. It is NOT LoF2, but it is a sequel.

That's a "no" from me.

Good thing that you're not the one who gets to decide anything for anyone other than yourself, then, isn't it?

 

[Tremonia]

Well, good thing I still know better. In a sequel, the plot is continued after the story of the previous work has been completed. It is not absolutely necessary for the sequel to follow on seamlessly from the plot of the previous work. However, references to characters or events should be recognizable. Neither in Eternum nor in u4ia is this decisive point the case. Cameos or the fact that an absolutely minor character (Christine in LoF) appears as a main character does not make a sequel. Would that be the case Chasing Sunsets or Artemis would be sequels of Leap Of Faith, or the other way around. What you mean is a spin-off. That's what they are. But in case of Eternum even this is debateable.

But, hey, this is the Intertwined thread, isn't it? Philological debates about definitions of terms are a bit too off-topic. Don't you think so?
