I don't think this game would end with Hunter getting what he wants. Well, I do concede that the final chapter could have a bad end that doesn't reset time, but plays out and ends. I mean, it's the final chapter. Why not have a bad end that "sticks"?

I wanted to stick by my guns that Hunter will probably kill Sterling in a bad end, but it would effectively be the same as getting rid of him like in the last bad end. So I doubt Hunter will have a bad end where he kills Sterling. Though chalk this as another update where Hunter again lost and should be building up his "last straw meter".

No idea where the game is heading and I can't wait to start seeing teasers. Guessing what's to come based on the teasers is fun for me.

I imagine a bad end where it sticks with Hunter winning. He gets all the girls. Even with constantly getting hurt, time is what kills Hunter. With him finally out of the way, an aged Sterling becomes the new Hunter preying after Hunter's descendants. The cycle is renewed, we have Power Vacuum 2!

Yeah, i was thinking something similar. Like hell, even if Sterling wins, he has nothing but girls and 1 son. That one son is evil or Hunter reincarnated. He goes after his sisters, aunts and grandmother. Sterling busted a nut, just for that nut to bust him many years later.

Damn. Hunter reincarnated as Sterling's spawn. I'd like to see that too. If papa Sterling's put in that position, what can he do? On one hand, it's Hunter and on the other, it's your son. What a dilemma to put him in.

soooo,
chapter 11....
i have a feeling that the outcome of the last chapter is gonna be something nobody could actually expect. there's drew, hunter and sterling. it seems like it's exactly like the good, the bad, and the ugly (very accurate description, hehe). we just have to wait and see what sterling can do to keep the girls with him.

I can see a bad end in the final chapter, where Hunter is dying and somehow he transfers his consciousness into the MC's body. So he basically takes his place. And the MC just simply disappears or he is ending up in Hunter's dying body. This way Hunter would basically "kill" the MC.

The pieces are coming together for Sterling. He's got the Robot, the missing eye, the diary. It's seemingly fool proof. I wonder how Hunter is going to get out of this or spin it. I always wondered if it was possible to spin it to be Sterlings fault.
Sterling - "You started drugging everyone as soon as you got here!"
Hunter - "You arrived nearly the same time. How do we know YOU'RE not the drugger?"

Knowing Hunter, he could have planned for this and had measures to blame Sterling. Heck, if he can provide false evidence, I can imagine Sterling being arrested, his family shunning him and now no one to stop Hunter at home.

You mean Superior Spider-Man! But training an apprentice and then taking over their body, I prefer to call that the "Darth Bane" method!

While it's fun to joke about, I doubt this game is going to take a sharp turn into science fiction.

A lot of bad end possibilities. I can also see Hunter having Sterling arrested for one of the bad ends. I can see the dog making a reappearance, Rebecca brings the dog over or Cath/Amber go over. Ain't gonna rule out Kevin being involved with one of the bad ends either. Wonder if Drews endings will get longer and involve more characters. All I know is that the dev won't disappoint.

I have high hopes for Kevin to finally get Ophelia. He is, if I'm not misunderstanding, going to be called back to the house by Sterling for a favor for Brenna. I even responded to someone that Kevin's story was probably over, but then CH 11 drops. That and Kevin was pointed out on the white board of a movie. Pretty suspicious to talk about Kevin twice if you ask me.

I was thinking the same thing for Rebecca's dog. Rebecca can say she is going on vacation for a week and ask if they can dog sit and there you go, bad end is setup for any girl in the house.

Dev did say he was going to stop doing what ifs to put more overtime into the main game. So if bad ends aren't longer, there will probably be more per CH. To even out with the amount of Vanilla that will be expanded. I kinda hope for more bad ends, because that let's more characters to be targeted per CH and more villains doing acts. He'll be able to fit in Hunter, Drew AND Kevin.

Anyone here can share a non NTR version of Chapter 10? I'll deeply appreciate it.

Ending theories? Well, NTR aside (not my thing), Drew I could maybe see becoming a sub to Sterling (already had the one scene that suggests she's not opposed to receiving), but the overall story ending like the Sisters game from a few years back, but funnier. Where Sterling becomes a dad many times over, with the mothers being family and non-family. Sterling inherits Hunter's money as he ends up in an old folks home for the nutjobs, with only little old ladies wanting him, leaving him in a nightmare until his last days.

Drew... Have not seen enough of her to really know her character. She's a wild card.
