Octavia's "good ending" should really be the bad ending, how f-ing sad it was. The bad ending (bathroom scene) would be a great lead-in to the corruption path.Octavia's bad ending...

OK, so the Octavia "good ending" gnawed at me and I found the script and edited it to create a truly good ending. I feel so much better now! Still wishing for some expanded scenes, but at least all endings now make me feel better.

I'd say in an ideal world it would be the neutral ending. Actually, in an ideal world, the ideal MT would have four endings for Octavia, all depending on MC's actions and decisions:
A) Bad ending with Octavia becoming MC's slave
B) Bad ending with Octavia ending up as just another girl satisfying customers at "Mask"; if MC was willing but failed to help her
C) Neutral ending with Octavia out of "Mask" thanks to MC but she's not really in love with him, all she feels is gratitude; so she leaves him because she thinks it would be the best both for her and for him
D) Good ending where she stays with MC
Yep! I always felt that the second "Mask" scene (the one with anal sex) is way too hasty like we've skipped some scenes between the first scene and that one. It's like in the first scene she's reluctant and shy but in the next scene she's already completely corrupted and is a perfect sex slave already. And the entire corruption happened somewhere behind the scenes by the hands of some "Maria" we didn't even happen to see. It's like ordering yourself a pizza delivered to home instead of making something by yourself for yourself. I mean, the whole fun (however questionable it might be) of corruption routes is that you gradually make a sex slave or a slut out of a nice girl, not just wait a few days while other people do it.
Sorry for the rant.

I do not think that she leaves in the "good" ending because she does not love the MC. More like she does not love herself, quite the contrary in fact. She is broken. It is indeed far from a good ending. But still better than the other outcome in my book.

Well, she certainly feels something for MC, but she's not head over heels passionate about him, so she's able to make a very rational decision to leave the town and MC. You make it sound almost like she punishes herself by leaving MC, but I chose to interpret her ending like that - she's scarred but not completely broken, and so she wisely chooses to leave the whole ordeal behind and start a new page in life. "Time will heal" and all that. As for MC, IIRC she once said to him something along the lines of "I'm too old for you, you should have your freedom and get a lot of different girlfriends and fun" etc., so I think her rationalization of leaving MC is giving him freedom to live his life to the fullest (which failed, as we can see, since he still can't forget her even after several relationships). And so she leaves, but have one last passionate lovemaking before that - to end the relationship on an upbeat note, so to say, so that both of them would have something wonderful to remember.
Although I might be off, so may be Wildquill might correct us in our theories.

Go to the game folder and find two files (script_day22.rpy & script_day22_OctaviaVanilla.rpy). This is only for the final Octavia good ending. The Day22 file, line 1631 is the start of the in car dialog then cuts to the final scene. Octavia Vanilla file is the scene after she drops you off at the house. Just note, I ran into problems when I entered new dialog because I used the tab key. I got it to work, but I'm a noob at this. I suggest you just replace the dialog you don't like & not try to enter new ones; of course, save these originals files somewhere in case you need to start over. Good luck!

I wrote this draft after finally completing Octavia's LOVE route yesterday.
(You guys made me unable to sleep until 3 AM because I keep getting this bitter feeling, thanks guys).
EDIT: I feel like there was another route planned for Octavia but was scrapped from the white board because of funds.

I clicked on your version of 'ending' but was turned off by the massive wall of text, but just the same, slowly read my way through, as I find your narrative style intriguing enough. Damn bro! What you've just written was on par (if not BETTER, than the author's)! You should consider writing as a career. You're definitely good at this. That was just beautiful writing.
Superb ending too, for Octavia lovers!

Thanks for your kind words, I'm definitely not better than Milky Touch's writer though. English isn't my native language so I only know basic vocabularies and some, whereas in Milky Touch there are lot of words used to narrate that I found very "poetic" and "novel", with elements of theatricality. Words that you'd expect to be found in professional literature and not in normal conversations, but the writers didn't abuse them to flex their vocab skills and made a sentence or paragraph overly complicated for the average readers like some writers I've seen and it's perfect.
The writing, combined with the amazing art and voice actors really made this game my most favorite adult game so far which is why I always feel regretful that I hadn't found this sooner to support this project and possibly helps it keep going at the time during development phase.
Also low key I think I should have picked a more "Roman" name instead of Sarah to match with Octavia's name.

Wow. Wholesomeness overdose.
(What's with the clerk lady though? Is she there, like, for comedic relief?)
Sorry, man. But you know, I think the old saying fits like never before: don't hate the players, hate the game. The one game ending, to be precise.
Yeah, think so too. IIRC there can be even more ridiculous situation were you could do nothing sexual with Claudia and yet get her ending. I'm not 100% sure, would need to recheck, but I think I got this result once and it was hilarious. There are quite a lot of loose ends left unanswered - like what's the "Guild", what happened with Marcello (although at Discord devs said he just run away), what's going on with Chang's racket, would Tombs become Karen's and Leon's bull and so on. And not a single scene with Evelyn, ugh!

Haha she's supposed to be a good friend of Octavia at her new place and cares a lot about Octavia, a little nosey as a consequence. But yeah she's there for minor comedic relief.
And yeah now that you mention it I think I saw a Pursue Claudia in almost every route I went(?).

Yeah, I just checked - loaded one of my Octavia route saves (so nothing with Claudia) at Day 18, kissed Octavia instead of asking her out, got locked on taking Claudia to Mossland (happened automatically with no choice), refused to kiss her, refused to have sex with Karen, refused to go to Katelyn's party - and landed on Claudia's ending and made myself a little brother. MFW
However it could've been fixed very easily - just allow the player to choose Octavia ending even if he kissed her in her office instead of going to Mossland with her.
BTW it got me thinking about endings in general, and I realized that while the good endings do exclude each other, the bad endings do not. The "Mask" threesome is sort of a bonus "hidden" ending yet neither this scene, not individual Claudia and Octavia corruption endings do not conflict, come to think of it. Even though Monroe promises them both that it would be their final gig at the "Mask", MC's thoughts at the end of the scene show that he probably just won't let them go. So Claudia's bad ending could happen few days after that, and Octavia's - few weeks or months later. But, from the story point, all of them still could belong to a single route.

Wow, glad to see several of you used those files to create your own version of Octavia's ending! I'm glad we could fix such a disappointing end. For any who have played Acting Lessons; that's possibly the worse endings ever, but it's a part of the main story, so it can't be changed.
