Thanks for all those renders, it help MY goldfish memory! Ximena make absolute sense in that case, I thought I remember her saying she recognize him. It wasn't about seing him at the bar, right? And Anders might end up being Valeria father? Technically, would it be considered incest (if he was never in her life and isn't MC bio father)? Anders is known to sleep around, and as much as I love Valeria, she seem to have a tendency to flirt around too.
I just feel that, even if Zane is connected ALOT already, it's always a tricky subject to include this kind of character later on. Personally, I'm not the jealous type, but bringing a guy who's a model, every girl in school as a "crush" on and ESPECIALLY slept with the main LI (Erynn) might turn off some players? I'm just thinking on the practical side, adding a legit rival to the MC who can most likely bang any of the LI is risky. Maybe I just never played a game with this type of character, so I don't really know the dynamic? Personally, hats off to Nyx if she doesn't mind and want to tell this story like that! I don't like stories who walk on eggshells and become 100% fan-service anyway! I just thought that him being MC half-brother (and Brooke's half brother too, but they call each other brother-sister because they lived together all their life) might soften the blow, the jealous players can cope by saying that they all like him because he remind them of MC (his personality at least, if the character doesn't look like him). I know it sound dumb, but I've seen enough comment on this forum to know that it's not THAT dumb. There's a reason most male characters are either A) ugly, B) gay, C) very dumb or D) in a loving relationship.
And the perfum guy, you are right, I thought he was with the agency, but it make sense he was just using the agency for his product photoshoot. He's probably connected with someone too, since he was at the competition, no? And somewhere else too IIRC, but can't remember that one either.
The sequence goes, Ximena recognizes the MC as the kid that was talking to Gabi in the club, then she has one further(this one i showed the image) "i think i've met him before".
Andres can't be Valeria's father, Valeria's father lives in town, i think he has done so since before Valeria and her mom moved in(Val's mom and dad aren't married or even a couple anymore), Andres is living in Alvarado(where we go visit Nathan our buddy).
Ximena has crossed paths with Andres at some point in the past, but i have no idea when... it's still in the air.
Zane is someone that can make players uncomfortable and i think that's a good thing, there's enough bad and pathetic "rivals" with Ethan and Zach already.
Obviously every girl thinks he's hot, from the first time he opens his mouth on the Val scene he seems like a smooth talker...
The guy is an English literature major, model, jacked and a surfer... he's right out of those novels aimed at women.
Still this is a game and i know that if i play my cards right i can beat him(i hope so at least
)... In real life it would be a nightmare having a guy fitting this description hanging around your girl(specially as the Ex).
Family relationship to the MC, i don't see it, Emily our mom doesn't have any other kids obviously, Santiago... he was also well known to Emily before he got her preggo(on/off relationship is how she describes it), i don't see a scenario where he already had a kid before doing Emily, i think it's too farfetched even for Intertwined.
Maybe Zane will still have some personality traits that connect him to the MC, delivering this "Erynn liked him because he reminded her of the kid she always loved" that you're suggesting.
He doesn't need to be a brother for that.
Called it a couple of months ago, but I'm 90% sure Iris is the endgame to the Ethan storyline. Her hearing Erynn problems wasn't just for fun. She's getting annoyed to be kept in the dark, and she will 100% want to help Erynn because A) She has a crush on her or B) She will learn the truth about their connection by that time. And now, especially if John end up in trouble with Ethan, Iris won't let this asshole get his way.
My prediction was: she fuck him with a strap-on while filming. My be too un-realistic, so the other option is just to catch him on tape doing something very illegal, so they will have dirt on him.
Valeria might be very well connected (with her parents), so I doubt she will get in too much trouble. Ethan might actually shoot himself in the foot going after her. But him flying too close to the sun and burning himself could be another good ending, thinking he's above everyone and actually coming face to face with someone with actual power.
Iris 100% will want to help, and with Ethan targeting John she's now very involved(maybe in danger), even before figuring out Erynn is her sister.
I love your suggested ending
I still think the most likely conclusion to that event is that the guys(Ethan+goons) tried to intimidate her, and she recognized who they were and that she was outmatched... and just legged it, she is a sprinter after all and a good one.
I wonder what she'll say when we next see her.
And if she is the daughter of a rich and famous woman like i suspect her to be, she might even have a bodyguard going forward.
And Ethan is definitely flying too close to the sun messing with a rich family.
Hadn't played in awhile so had to do a restart with the latest update. I can see some of the earlier scenes were completely remade.
I don't supposed Nyx or any of her testers come here on F95? Found a continuity error when talking to Layla in the park for the first time. We started talking about Gabi, jumped to a nonsensical line of dialogue followed by more dialogue that clearly shows we are talking about Elena:
View attachment 4400318
Looks like two or three lines have been skipped between the first and second panel above.
It looks like it's missing a couple of lines about Elena not having time to help Layla with spanish.
if I recall correctly you need to play both Val and Erynn's beach date. On Erynn's she mention's a big surprise sooner than her thinks ( sorry if this is a little vague started to get sick like an hour ago and cant be bothered to look up the exact wording or screen shot of the render) At the end of the date she runs in to her EX Zane ( we don't see his face)
Then on Val's path we run into someone that we assume is Zane and I forget what branch it is on. I think Val's it's mentioned this guy we assume to be Zane just started a internship at our school.
So with Erynn trying to be a teacher , this guy doing a internship , and she mentioned a big surprise for us that might be sooner than later. Also with how connected characters in this game we can assume the surprise is her working as a internship in one our classes. ( I assume it would be math but would be great if it's with Gabi our Spanish teacher for the drama.)
sorry if I didn't explain it that well kind of hard to when im sick.
I'll do a small addition, what Erynn says is in response to the MC saying, "i see why you want to be teacher" and "i can't wait until you are in front of a classroom", that's when she drops that she has a surprise coming soon.
A surprise related to teaching them...
The Val path adds context, while out with Val we meet Mr Donovan(he has partially obscured cameo on the Erynn path), Mr Donovan is still a college student(like Erynn) that does an internship as a teacher in our school(he also makes every girl in the school wet, but that's besides the point).
So yeah not that hard to put 2 and 2 together.
And i hope you'll feel better soon.
