Just finished the update and I have to say, what a bomb to lead us into the exhibition. I don´t think I ever felt so bad for a character as I did for Felicia, even though she´s the one who decided to sign up for that. Elias seems like a relatively decent guy, although there isn´t a lot of competition in that aspect. It´s sad the he was already going to be part of the club and get the support he needed for his election (or was he helping someone else get elected? I actually blanked on that one), but Kathleen and the club felt the need to go the extra step to make sure they could control him.
Sophia is growing on me, I hope there is a way to "save" her from Van Doren, although I still don´t trust her; I´m sad there was no Mina scene, that better be compensated in the next part of the update; thank god for that Hana scene, best scene in the update for me, I will always love a thirsty girl.

There's a Mina scene, after Edwin has breakfast with the mom, you can go to Mina or Hana or in my case neither :cry:

I suppose. However it seems he is not above taking advantage of the clients that he represents. If you pay attention during the interview you see he leaves to take advantage of one of the "troublesome" actresses that his subordinate has plied with drugs.
Citation needed. Where did you get the part with drugs?

I'm not overlooking a way to skip the forced intermission screens and the long ass startup screens am I? Forced pauses like that really break the flow for me and the intro screens being forced are just "the board of directors got hold of the game" annoying

I love those intermission screens and the jingle that plays when they appear!

The Ctrl key should get you past the splash screens. The transition screens too technically, although you'll need skip unread on for the first time seeing them.

They get less frequent as the game goes along.

The text from the subordinate reads
I got my hands on this. I imagine it will shut her up.

I await your instructions, sir.
Which i think can also be interpreted that "this" in question are pictures of the troublesome actress snorting lines she has acquired on her own, and using this to blackmail her to stop making a fuss. As opposed to actually supplying her drugs themselves.

So many people expect to get Mina scene and are absolutely convinced there just wasn't one, when they didn't have the basic courtesy not to treat her like some second-string afterthought, smh. :whistle::coffee:
The real question would be:

since there's a new Mina scene in the game gallery, how could he possibly claim that there is no Mina scene in this update?

Because he didn't look at the game gallery :WeSmart:
If he didn't spend time with Mina last update I don't see why he would deserve a Mina scene in this one :whistle:.

Also, we haven't had a dev diary the last 2 weeks right? Or have I missed them? I'm guessing not, given a new update just released, anyway I'm looking forward to the next update already :giggle:.

If you are on the hanna GF route you get her option. If you are on the Hanna fb and mina casual lover paths you get the mina option. I just found out that if you don't Kiss Mina at the gig her option the next morning is not available. Also if you don't tell Mina the Killian want's to apologize, Killian will not go with to MC mom in the morning.

Dev diaries are usually released every 3 weeks (less often 2) on Sundays (sometimes on Mondays), the next one can be expected on the 19th-20th.

Personally, I'm curious to see what happens next week during the weekdays when the remaining questions are answered and Edwin, hopefully, can finally draw the line. While I'm not a huge fan of exhibitions, it will be interesting to see how the next one plays out given the recent events with Elias :sneaky:

Yeah he's still a bad person, just compared to the others in the group, it makes him look like a child.

The type of guy Fel's gold-digging for likely isn't interested in experience and refinement; they want VERY young and breedable trophy wives.

Fel isn't after a guy who made his first mil just last week; she's after a guy with "10 million dollars in his pocket". That's a guy with 100 mil+ in the bank, and not only are there a LOT less of those than just "millionaires", they are:

1) Likely to already be married. REALLY likely.

2) Likely to know Elias personally ("it's a small club, and you ain't in it", as said by George Carlin), so not want his "cast-offs".

3) Overwhelmingly likely to be acquisition-OBSESSED, (they didn't get THAT rich if morals or a simple life of wisdom factored over wealth), so probably obsessively greedy and selfish materialists, with a LARGE percentage being narcissists.

Such types tend to be massively concerned about the "value" the new wife brings, with a weighting towards not wanting a woman who has "hit the wall" of her mid-30s. That ~35 yrs age bracket is a HARD PASS for a lot of the narcissistic self-described "alpha' millionaires and billionaires.

THAT sort of guy is cruising for his second or third wife, because the one he bought 10 yrs ago is looking more like Fel is now, than say, a Mina, AND THOSE TYPES WANT A MINA; they figure they can train a barely-legal bimbo to look refined, but the plastic surgery used in maintaining "the old gal" has started to show its seams, so time to dump her and get a newer model. To them, younger is always better.

Elias is a weird case, because he inherited, so didn"t have as much of the greed angle, seemingly has SOME morals, and held onto Fel as she got to her 30s (tho is still cheating on her) but, for all his seeming niceness, still flatly refused to pay out even a pittance to help keep open an art school that was the one shining gem of hope in a poor community. The big-money bracket is a profile that oft pans out.

BTW.. Note how often Allison, who is on Elias's arm, gets compared to Fel. While the club arranged it, Elias might still have been trying out Felicia v2.0.

Ultra rich folks didn't get rich by having morals, or giving a sheet abt personality. Don't assume that demographic gives sheet one what a woman's experience brings, as this is the Epstein-flight-list crowd we are talking abt: they will be programming the new slave girl to behave as THEY please, anyway, so want the cup empty for them to fill. Young and fill-able.. That ain't Fel, anymore. ( EDIT: OK, yeah, she is fill-able (very fill-able)... Just not malleable. :ROFLMAO: )

PS.. The art of Honey Select games (like this one) keeps gals hot unless it wildly exaggerates their age, so how Fel would look IRL is debateable. She has access to top-dollar cosmetics and likely "had some work done", but probably is showing her age a bit, nonetheless, despite the game art keeping her evergreen.
There's a bit of a dichotomy that isn't quite shown but a huge issue with this that doesn't change anything about what you said and makes it deeper: Old money vs new money.

If you're OLD money, you have entrenched views on society which can then turn you into a major, extreme, self righteous prick that makes you insufferable as a noble in said society. That's Kathleen. Judge for a husband, always been higher class, etc.

For Elias, he's NEW money. Inheritance is a part of it. He's running a studio business, so at the very least, he's needing to see how someone lives. New money is Silicon Valley, Hollywood (though that's old now), and game businesses just as an example. You aren't railroad, oil, or insurance. You're the newest industry going which has millionaires and billionaires pop up outside the system. That's why Elias can be very unique because his background links up in certain ways to a lower class. And of course, remember Felicia's background. She started from the bottom.

Now she's here.

Sure it could be interpreted either way, but using drugs to keep a budding starlet subdued is not unheard of and plays into stereo typical abusive talent agency. Plus we know that Elias is not stranger to his own "top up".

Kinda makes me concerned for Mina who is represented by his agency.

Yeah, that's what i meant. For Mina hangout to become available Edwin has to spend time with her and show that he "gets her" by doing the PDA she's hinting at. And not be another girl's boyfriend, obv.
