We saw Kat telling our shady Abel scientist that August isn't a problem for them, but Uncle Chuck is. Then we saw Chuck telling Kat: "don't involve Edwin in your damn scientific experiment". Then we saw Abel having this infamous conversation with Edwin where he basically warns Edwin about Chuck.
I personally chuck that up to the "boundaries" of "game/private life" and Felicity's "public/marriage life". Her response is no different from Edwin finding out Kat has been talking to Victoria, or how Kat would respond if someone from the club came to her house... especially if her husband the judge was home at the time. Felicity is very motivated to play her games in the places she chooses, but Edwin showing up at her house under false pretenses screams "Kat's doing", thus Felicity rightfully sees the act as Kat playing dirty. However, since it is Edwin, whom she already likes as a boy-toy, she switches into "game mode" whenever she is sure her husband won't see or hear, thus why she goes full throttle in the bath tub and his office after he leaves. So yeah, very much a game for her... until the cattle prod comes out.
That's a fair opinion, how differently do you expect her to act while on stage if at all?
I would compare Felicity to the Flash in the Justice League animated series: sees everything as a game up until "things get serious" on a personal level. Felicity's last Exhibition performance and her rough treatment with the cattle prod, and thus the loss of her playmate, has pushed her past her naivete. To go forward now without quitting, she either has to double-down on her self-delusion that "it's all fun and games", or "alright, this is more than I bargained for, but momma didn't raise no quitter". Considering she feels betrayed by Edwin, I'm guessing the latter, but she might throw a "happy-go-lucky" facade to the club audience, even though everyone on-stage knows about her perspective change, thinking that's her best play to keep the patrons' interest in her come the final vote.
Not getting sucked into the club's depravity and ultimately leaving the club after his goals are completed does sound like the best ending for Edwin.
afaik he already does go to medschool, but the game takes place during the summer. During the rest of the year the club isn't that demanding on his time and is open during the weekends so it would be feasible for him to continue working there, it's just a regular brothel when the exhibition is not ongoing.
Not to nitpick, but it is Felicia, not Felicity. Beside that, Edwin does not have to betray Feli during the cattle prod episode! He can actually also play a role together with Felicia where they act out a prodding but it is an act with a minimum of prodding done. So Edwin and Felicia can even become more trusting with each other during the cattle prod episode, it hinges on what you play and decide.
No. US medical degrees are different. You get a bachelor's degree in science, then you enter med school.
right, been a while since I played from the beginning, thanks for the correction
Well it's certainly not UK or Japan, considering which side Felicia's steering wheel is on.
Well... THAT'S a new way to switch gears. Hehe.Her right hand might slip and land you know where...
Like someone else has said you can make a few choices to (possibly) alleviate most of the betrayal she would feel from Edwin, I think (in the case of you not shocking her etc) that she is more angry about the situation in general than Edwin in particular and you could even argue that it could be used as a reason for her to trust him more especially if they are just fuck buddies vs sugar momma/baby. Either way I think that her "performances" will probably be the most interesting from a narrative perspective going forward
Felicia's car has a maryland plate on the front iirc
I shocked her, and we're just fuck buddies, and she is PISSED at me during the call. Although I calmed her down, she definitely doesn't look at me in the same [trusting] way.
and on mine I did not shock her we are fuck buddies and i for sure read the scene with her on the phone as more annoyed/"angry" than pissed. Both people are talking is a normal tone (lack of capitalization and exclamation) and by the end there was even a casual joke or two.
I think it's simpler than that: Felicia just likes sex. As long as the challenges involve sex or sexuality, Felicia can roll with the punches like a champ; as soon as the activities move to something more mundane, she loses interest and becomes far more fragile. Unfortunately for her, Kathleen's the one running the show and Kathleen cares about suffering far more than she cares about sex. You can see this most clearly in the cattleprod game in Chapter 4 Update 2. Without the MC's help, all Felicia can focus on is the discomfort.
That is hardly surprising that she starts to dislike you if you cattleprod her just so! Especially since you also can "playacting" with her the prodding, so it just looks like she was fully hit. Afterwards in the phone call she is pissed at Kat´s "ideas", not Edwin. In my main playthrough the MC and Felicia have a good and trusting relationship, I also go with her to the art exhibition without taking anything from her.
That is a path split IMHO, depending on what you did during the cattle prod scene. It is obvious from the story so far that Feli is a hedonist, one of Epikur´s children, so she sucks big time with dishing out and receiving pain and hurt. You have a choice there, if you help Feli coming through this scene with the least hurt you definitely gain a lot of trust with her.and on mine I did not shock her we are fuck buddies and i for sure read the scene with her on the phone as more annoyed/"angry" than pissed. Both people are talking is a normal tone (lack of capitalization and exclamation) and by the end there was even a casual joke or two.
I dont know if there is a path split there or if its just a difference in thinking what pissed/annoyed is
