Does anyone still remember the days before Windows? When everything ran in DOS and programs were loaded from cassette tapes? ZX Spectrum is the ultimate teenager's dream.
Yeah, I don't miss those at all. Stick a cassette in, start the load, go away for dinner or whatever then come back and find the load failed after 25 minutes...

Was the spectrum the one with the rubber keys and a slot in the back? My neighbour's daughter had one of those. Don't think she ever did anything useful with it...

Allright. Now for something completely different...
And apologies if I'm dense.
In changelog for latest version:
'... or My Residence date with Nellie.'
For my playthrough it went straight to Norah.
Who is this Nellie person? Did I miss something or is it because her path is exclusive with Norah?

MC plays a visual novel in-game called My Residence. The fake game has a character equivalent of each of the actual LIs in My Dorm. If you aren't on a My Dorm LI path, you often get a brief scene where MC plays My Residence and sees a scene with their mirror version, essentially as a way of showing you, the player, that you missed a scene because you weren't on their actual path.

Nellie is the fake game version of Norah, so you don't see any scenes with that because you are on Norah's path.

Personally, I haven't seen any of the My Residence scenes beyond the first couple that introduced it because I'm playing Pokemon. (Gotta catch 'em all!)

YIKES. If you wanna give up all the MC has for being excluded in a group that is literally meant to assist them in making the MC's life better (surprises and such)...well, you probably don't deserve the group in the first place.

I was enjoying lurking and the trip down memory lane with old PCs and then here comes a wall of text about how you're butt hurt the MC isn't in the group. That's all you got out of this story? 3 seasons, a fuck ton of sex and loving relationships, but nah, throw it out the door cause MC isn't privy to absolutely everything in their lives. You're the type of person to look at your partner's phone when they are asleep to make sure they aren't talking about you to their friends, assuming you even have a partner in the first place being this neurotic.
All that shit can be done by women in F2F or just by a message between two people... No need for a group. And what the fuck is Jamaal doing in a group. That idiot doesn't bring anything new to the table.

You know, maybe I should make an alternate playthrough with zero LIs just to see all the My Residence scenes.

Can just have MC sit at home all day. Alone. Playing AVNs...

On second thought, maybe I skip that plan. :HideThePain:

P.S. I'm of course joking. Might actually do that for the lulz.
All the My Residence micro-scenes are in the gallery to avoid that ;)

Season 3: the abbreviation says "Daph" for a potential custom-named character. In my playthrough, there is no "Daph"...

I guess it's something on your device. A lot of people played Season 1 without any issues. Have you tried to Change Render Options?
I don't know, I played it smoothly at the beginning, although it takes a while to open the game, I restarted it and it opened without this message. But anyway, this is the first time I've seen this error, even using a 13th gen i3.

When I play this game and the story telling done by Trope95 in my lifetime we went from robots and clones in the movies and TV shows to actually having the the ability to clone and AI. If us old people remember the Jetsons and the flying cars, well they actually have them out there. So look at just in the last 36 years from what we had to work with in regards of storage and computers to now I have my main PC with 7 hard drives totaling about 35 Tb of hard drives to 96Gb of RAM with what the MC in the story has to deal with and how that can be put to use in the cloning and medical. That is one of the reasons I love this game and how it draws us old IT guys into this forum. As long as we don't talk about the windows millennium edition operating system I still hate that o/s :-D.

I don't understand these players. They don't want to play the Family version, because....................... but then they want that the DNA result to say that the girl that is pregnant with "their" child is their sister.

How can this 2 concepts run at the same time in those minds is above my comprehension.

Peace :(
It's not that we play the "clone" version because we dislike incest ("we" being myself and, I think, some others), we play it because the story makes more sense to us that way. Now Scarlett being a half-sister makes perfect sense regardless of our opinion on the rest of the family.

Just a question then, you don't like incest (and it's fine) but, since Scarlett being the half-sister makes perfect sense, you want incest in the non-incest one?:unsure:

Because, I don't see a way to make it work if you want her to be the half-sister without incest in the non-incest.

I meant that I'm not against incest but before I played this game I decided to try the version without just ot see what it was like and it made so much sense that I just decided to not apply the patch. Let me edit the other post ot make it clearer.

I get it. He didn't say he doesn't like incest. He said incest isn'tt the reason he doesn't use the patch. He just thinks the story works better in the clones version, but he thinks it would then still work for Scarlett to be a half-sister. It's not about not wanting certain types or certain people to have incest.
