At this point, I really want some hunter to put a stake through MC's brain.... Because he doesn't need that anymore....
The folder just says Rebirthep3-ep3up9-pc, not compressed no mods, so I guess back to page 1 and look for ep3v2.got ep3v2? mods installed? compressed?
The "give Astrid" path felt like a fan feedback path to me. I get the feeling that Sharon isn't a fan favourite, so this is where the PC gets to dismiss her. His mentor bares her fangs at him and he doesn't react other than continuing to treat her like a child, because fans like a powerful PC. Sharon got relegated to paperwork duty now, so there's more room for other characters. Like, she never does anything without the PC, so where is all this paperwork coming from?My canon playthrough is "not give Astrid" path and I only played through "give Astrid" path to find out how different that would be from the alternative.
Other than thralling of Ivy (which I felt came out of nowhere, and felt a bit pointless), didn't find any issue with "not give Astrid" path.
On the "give Astrid" path though, I felt that the way Sharon reacted to MC felt a bit off throughout the update.
Other than the initial scene (where MC tells her that he gave Astrid to Callisto) and the scene where they're coming home from nightclub (when pleasing Callisto topic comes up where she shows her resentment), all other scenes she reacts exactly the same as "not give Astrid" path.
Considering that MC broke her trust by giving Astrid to Callisto behind her back, more natural reaction would have been for her to be more angry, arguing more with the MC in more scenes, not just limited to the two shown in the update.
Because when I read stories, I like to binge read. I literally have nothing left but time on my hands. Do to injuries and other health stuff. I'm on disability. So I have a lot of free time. I've already wrote the next 3 months of D&D 5e Campaign stuff for 3 different D&D Online Groups I DM. (Via Tabletop Simulator). We are currently on break till till April 1st(I take March off to recharge my batteries and enjoy my Birthday month)Read slower, savor the story, and why wait 1 year when it come's out monthly.
astfedWhat variable do I change if I didn't want to give over astrid?
I think this is the big issue why so many players seem ready to fuck over Sharon, a shocking amount, if you read this thread. Whatever chemistry or sexual tension the MC and Sharon had (which IMO was tooooop fucking tier) was ramping up perfectly and methodically and then absolutely hit a plateau when Astrid came back, and both characters agree "yeah if your dick worked we would definitely have sex, but since your dick works now... uh... i dont love you yet?" and we've just been sitting in that awkward area for what feels like years while Astrid continuously attempts to NTR-jealousy bait us.Just downloaded update and waiting for it unzip but I can't help but keep thinking and fingers crossed that MAYBE, or better yet, FINALLY the MC will get to have one on one time with Sharon and actually they will fuck! I'm sure I will be let down yet again but I mean Damn, If not now the start of the 4th freakin Episode and with how much they have done and been able to bond and form an actual connection It's only normal Sharon spreads her beautiful legs open and Invites MC to the 1st Night of many more to come with rising fun each time. This story/game has pretty much just about all of what makes a good game playthrough that is far above most others but the actual lacking of any form of fucking or any fun is strange esp after he fucks Carmen and Calisto and for sure a thirsty Astrid and super horny Laurie would also be in the fucked box as well had both been given a chance to do so their way of it.... Its for sure a let down cause clearly it's a real connection they have and it's certainly baffling they haven't done anything serious yet and it is TIME TO SEE MC HOOK UP W SHARON!

It would be nice to see it happen, but sadly I doubt it's gonna happen anytime soon especially the sexual activity.It is way, way past time for the two to start having some kind of sexual activity or other significant jump in the romantic/sexual side of the relationship. There's slow burn, and then there's letting the flame go out entirely. At this point it almost feels like the devs are just afraid of the inevitable anticlimax (no pun intended) of the scene finally happening after all this time.
I don't think most players want to fuck Sharon over per se, I like Sharon a lot myself the problem being that at this point in the story Sharon needs to realize that MC is the true power in scottstown and not her. He's at that point where he no longer needs to obey Sharon with regards to big decisions.I think this is the big issue why so many players seem ready to fuck over Sharon, a shocking amount, if you read this thread.

MC isn't officially archon. Their co-archon understanding is more of a personal thing between them. Sharon and Astrid were past lovers. She obviously still has a soft spot for her and doesn't want her to get mind fucked by Calisto. Sharon is prideful but also full of self doubt. She understands the real game already. She knows it didn't make sense for her to become archon at this stage based on just her influence and achievements. MC already confirmed it with her. She also has a needy side where she wants validation from MC and wants him to nurture her. She already understands that MC is on par or even above her at this time, but wouldn't outright admit it. She is a probably the character with the most depth in this story so far considering every other character (save for maybe Carmen) is one dimensional.I generally like Sharon a lot.
Even though both her and Andrew were acting like idiots during Callisto's visit, which I wasn't too keen on seeing.
I think with Sharon, her biggest issue is her pride & ego.
Pride & ego was what made her take the not so smart decision of challenging Callisto (despite her being one of the elder), which MC has been warning her time and time again.
And I'd assume also pride is part of the reason why she gets upset and even resentful towards MC (if player chooses to hand Astrid over to Callisto), although a huge part of it's to do with MC basically going behind her back breaking her her trust also.
Unless she deals with her pride and ego, I don't think she'll accept that MC is the true power, and she just got the Archon seat thanks to Callisto pulling some strings for her favored "lamb" (i.e. MC), despite being told that it's not due to her own merit that she got the Archon seat.
Also, while I think one part of the issue is Sharon's pride and ego getting in the way of accepting MC as the true power of Scottstown, the other part of it likely has to do with MC's personality.
From what we've seen of MC sofar, he's more of a type to delegate a lot of Archon matters to Sharon rather than take charge of matters himself, so I don't know how that will all play into as a factor.
