Just to give my 5 cents on the Good Kid discussion:
I don't mind their music, it's quite alright actually. But it just felt like it doesn't fit the game, neither thematically, nor musically. It was just too wild, loud and distracting.
And the constant 4th wall breaking was cringe and needlessly broke immersion.
I treat the whole Imani Wars episode as a fever dream that never really happened.
Also:
Weren't the guys from that band the ones that contacted Selebus in the first place because they were fans of the game?
Huge if true. I always wondered if smaller musicians reach out to some of their favorite creators to be included without having to pay for licensing. Though I imagined it's more difficult when it's for an adult game, given that it could be more bad than good publicity.
Probably Ami becoming a Maid:
Then the scarf stuff happens.
Although, in theory:
Overall: Ami becoming a Maid is the first notable thing Maya seemed to notice, but it might be Yumi preventing Sensei from seemingly erasing himself/walking into static in 'Not Even Me' that really changed the timeline, if that was new.
Edit: Could be a few other things, though. Hard to tell since Maya focused mostly just on Sensei and Ami.
I'm quoting you only symbolically, because the whole discussion "what does Prime Maya consider new" etc. brings me to a topic that I meant to bring up for the longest time:
One thing that always bugged me is that Prime Maya has supposed to have lived through thousands if not millions (!) of resets. And it has been repeated enough for me to assume this is not supposed to be treated as a hyperbole.
Now, I will just assume that Sel has not thought it through and my annoyance with this is futile. But there is simply
no way that this would be anywhere near possible.
First off, having lived through millions, or even a few thousand, of resets, would make Maya's (mental) age exceed any human being
by far. Not only would that have enormous negative effects to one's mental state (and by that I don't mean making Maya "cool and reserved" and somewhat arrogant and all-knowing), it would also make it near impossible for her to reliably remember
anything about
any previous resets, let alone small details like if Ami ever worked as a maid just once during the previous million timelines.
I just don't understand why Sel chose such a ridiculous amount, and again, if there is any indication that this is meant to be highly exaggerated, please let me know.
Because either, Prime Maya was actually massively mentally fatigued, to the point that she must have been probably hallucinating half of the time, as her capacity for retaining memories would have had to be exceeded at least tenfold. Or, it just felt like she lived through millions of resets, and actually there were only a couple hundred that lasted like 3 days (she did mention that she often just fucked the "bad" Akiras and made them disappear in front of her, I assume making people disappear liek that accelarated the resets? I might remember wrong) and maybe around 50 full on (almost) 1- school-year worth of resets. Which would still make her extremely frustrated and emotionally vacant, but at least to a realistic extent that would be plausible.
Unless those agonizing millions of resets... *puts tinfoil hat on*... made her into a makeshift god/timeless narrator. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yo this is so good, I love Twin Peaks and David Lynch. Did you edit that Wrigley's gum package or did you find it somewhere?
