Well there's a lot of uncertainties in the game after this update but I know for sure there's gonna be a training montage in the week leading up to the finale showdown with Jake cuz apparently we need to get stronger to fight him I guess he's gotten a lot of help from Ella to be stronger then us
To be fair, the MC is getting more and more used to Jake's influence. The first time, he couldn't fight it and didn't even noticed, yet with this update, not only did he feel the power working, but also broke free barely a few minutes later. So a week of powering up ? Maybe not. Probably more some time planning how to deal with Jake, but as the rate he's been progressing, I'd say he won't need much to be able to fight off Jake's influence.
Keep in mind that, more than just shapeshifting, the MC's speciality is
adapting. Every time some new shit got thrown his way, he managed to adapt and overcome.
You know I think someone need to make a list of all the events and decisions that add stats (for when they become actually important for the story variations) cuz I have no idea if I'm at max power or corruption which I might need to pass a stat check (though I could probably cheat it with joiplay and just edit the code)
Maxing power if fairly easy while not running after corruption, I feel like. Just hit every option that seem like it has a "training" feel to it, basically.
