But no one is asking the important questions... When we'll we fuck Sophia?

Shit! This is a striking comment among the crowd who are discussing NTR or incest...

 

[crunchycake]

Now that the hype for the latest update has passed, the thread has gone to it's natural state, people asking if there's NTR, then asking if it's avoidable, and if there will be incest in the game.

But no one is asking the important questions... When we'll we fuck Sophia?

A real man with a true goal will never get distracted by noise.

Going by several Felicia story parts and the last update in special, I am surprised that you still think Felicia is just a lusty golddigger! If you follow her story it becomes clear that the persona she projects to the outside is significantly different to the person inside.
The romance between her and the MC if you pursue Feli is really nice and it is quite obvious that there are genuine feelings and connection involved.

Agreed. I'm surprised at the takes from others here. The romance route with Fel is very sweet and makes it clear she never got a chance to pursue her dreams or be in a loving relationship and there's a genuine connection between her and the MC.

I'm surprised anyone would see Fel this way after the last update, which isn't, I think, shy about the idea that, behind the meticulously cultivated facade of carefree hypersexuality, her greatest desire is a genuine connection to a complete person, not merely their body.

I won't speculate whether love will enter into the equation down the line, but if it does, Fel's probably the person best suited to make it something lasting and meaningful.

Also, let's not bring up the age gap here. The Protagonist might be twenty-something by measure of his birth certificate, for obvious reasons, but by measure of emotional maturity, introspection and self awareness, he's well into his thirties.

To be fair, I did not yet complete the whole available playthrough. Seems like indeed the authors have written in an actual love interest path for Felicia. Ngl, it's kind of a bummer to know that a later scene will reveal that most of her character is a "facade" hiding a girl desperate for love and connection. I guess I have imagined her differently but I will see when I get to scene in question.

Every update I open the gallery immediately look to see if Sophia is listed and then get sad.

Ji!
I think you see it a bit too black and white concerning Felicia. Parts of her facade are also part of her inner persona, just not completely. For instance, while Felicia likes having sex (there is no difference on this with her outside and inside persona), she hides often how intelligent and creative she is. Feli is one of the most intelligent characters in the game, but few know or recognise this fact.

Chiming in, hoping to temper your slightly-spoiled expectations since the opinions here might affect your future reading of the scene in question:

I don't think Felicia enjoying a bit of romance in the moment means she's putting up a facade about who she is. If anything, considering her chosen "profession", she's too honest about who she is. Some hack is always writing her to say the unspoken parts out loud. So, without spoiling anything else, I'll just say that I think reflecting on the road not traveled isn't necessarily the same as disavowing your current path. Nor does indulging in a bit of escapism make you desperate. I like to eat meatloaf from time-to-time, but that doesn't mean my calling in life isn't sticking my dick in pizza.

Or something.

So your saying I should reflect on the Mina threesome I'm missing because I'm so focused on boosting Felicia's self confidence?

Didn't know your real name was (Fros)TD1900 you poet you.

And we fans love her for it. As I mentioned in several earlier posts, there are reasons why I consider Hana, Felicia and yes, Sophia, to be the best fitting love options for our MC. These three would lead to a romance with serious mutual character growth in separate fields.
That is not to say that the other love options are bad, far from it, but I simply do not see the same character growth of the couple in the other cases.

any replay scenes unlocker?

I'm envisioning that line as one of the Eugene Levy-character's heartfelt speeches in your unfinished screenplay for "American Pie Presents: The Real Pizzagate"

Not to step on anyone's authorial intent, but isn't the trophy wife gold digger slut persona a facade, in the sense that she technically might be one, but she intentionally presents herself within the confines of the club as only that, when she's clearly so much more?

 

[HongTeaPot]

would there be any love events for Rosalind in the near future? it's quite odd that there is only one shared sex scene, while Rose and MC living together.

 

[whatmi]

i think this game is kind of fun, but it sux how i must follow walkthru to see the content
game would be much better without decissions if developer planned from the start what is the most content path in unfinished game to see what it has to offer

I'm surprised anyone would see Fel this way after the last update, which isn't, I think, shy about the idea that, behind the meticulously cultivated facade of carefree hypersexuality, her greatest desire is a genuine connection to a complete person, not merely their body.

I won't speculate whether love will enter into the equation down the line, but if it does, Fel's probably the person best suited to make it something lasting and meaningful.

I get that she seems to want that. Yet what is stopping her from? Why can't she divorce and just settle with someone she loves?

because she values money more than love.

She might not be JUST a gold digger, but at the end of the day greed is what comes first on her scale of values. And she is ready and eager to let go of a lot, including love, self respect etc... just to get a little bit more money.

Yet her character arc might be that at the end of this she settles with MC on love route and acknowledges that money isn t all there is to life. For the other routes, i fear what greed will make her do...

 

[whatmi]

i think felicity is just greedy bitch wife married for money and dishonest
i like her, but mostly bcs i m not much better in the game

 

[labmouseblues]

Why can't she divorce and just settle with someone she loves?

Presumably because she never met anyone worth the hassle?

Look, I'm not arguing Fel is a starry eyed romantic just waiting for a prince and his ten inch horse to ride in and carry her away to a happily ever after forever in castle Bumfuck. I was arguing against the notion that she's driven by lust and therefore not capable of, or willing to engage in, romantic love. She enjoys sex, she uses it as a tool, but she isn't governed by it.

I's also like to point out Fel doesn't actually have money. Her husband has money. She has access, as his discretion, to certain limited benefits derived from his wealth. She herself likely owns practically nothing, if a prenup is in play, which there probably is.

I'm pretty sure it's confirmed she'll get a big part of the spotlight in the next update, so don't worry.

Considering he just joined the club, he's about to get one hell of a show. Seems the marriage is all but over unless there's some plot twist we don't know about.

Realistically, he would immediately be on the phone to his attorney to file for divorce. No idea what will actually go down.

 

[labmouseblues]

Simply exposing Fel doesn't feel like something Kathleen would do. I imagine she plans to see how far she can push Fel under the threat of revealing her presence in the club to her husband. Low light conditions, masks, and a merry-go-round cattle prod type of deal.
