I miss when i could come back to this thread and tell what was actually going on
It's fairly obvious what's going on! The update was discussed to death so now we have to find alternate ways to pass the time. This thread got too active for it's own good. A good tactic to stay sane is to just laugh at memes and completely ignore everything else.
____________________________________________

So let's get back to theorizing:

This update gave Emily a more involved part in the main story. Do you think that it's a fluke like all the others or she will eventually start taking a more active role during the twin chapter? Or perhaps she is going to get her own chapter afterwards?

She is more than likely going to get her own chapter I mean it was hinted at a few times at any rate (most notably mentioned by Ella that she couldn't find her a monster and that she lacked confidence) so that leads me to believe at some point Emily is gonna get powers or...attempt to at least (I hope ignoring her content can result in her monsterifying).

Who knows, after all there isn't any conclusion evidence on whether or not she'll be more important later on besides the search for Ella's past going on with her and Christie (also with the Main character too) but the only way i can see Emily getting her own arc is if she gets infected and turned into a superhuman. She was confirmed (by Ella) to be genetically compatible for it. Only reason she Ella didn't turn her was because she didn't think Emily was psychologically built for it but her mental state has been getting better as of lately, so she might get turned later on.

Who can say though.

Wouldn't her mental state depend if the player actually helped her though? Doesn't mean she still won't 'get' it although it may not end up how Ella would actually want it for her friend.

I hadn't try it, but in this update when we have the scene with Emily (when we are seaching for clues about Ella) will something change if we didn't help emily became more confident in the school events before we go to the mall?

I THINK there is a slight dialogue difference I need to replay through both instances (helping her vs not helping).

So I replayed the game to see how the scenes change if you helped vs didn't.

When searching for clues nothing changes whatsoever to indicate anything.

Notably Michael does mention that Emily needs to find a style that fits her (for fighting) and he's been training a lot of our friends although it seems she still hasn't found it, although idk if confidence has anything to do with that.

But in any case there has been very little variation from what I have seen at least with Emily, I do know that there's a few tiny changes with Liz and Amber.

I've finally gonne nuclear, baldurs gate 3 didn't let me have a romance with the one and only Shadow because i "misclicked" and banged Lae'zel so i restarted as a powerhouse, now here i am getting feats for every level i get, walking around with 6 companions following me and turning negative approval to positive...

Don't mess with my emotions BG3...

This is my view on Emily:

Emily's characteristics:
1) She has high compatibility (According to Ella)
2) Her mental state is predetermined (more on that later)
3) There is no path where she can turn up dead.
4) The 1st girl with a romance confirmation during the main story (Alice is the other one, Liz's and Amber's are fed through the side quests and Ella's is pretty much an unconfirmed fling at this point. Christie doesn't seem to be tracked.)
5) Michael says that she has a killer instinct.

Why romance and being alive 100% are important:
It's fairly obvious but I want to include it for completeness. This game is fairly linear. While the dev has some branching paths that lead to seperate results, the secondary characters and especially those who can end up dead are left behind.

Some meta-details on Emily's romance:
There are 3 variables that affect Emily's romance.
emkiss: Is set during the sorority party (the one with the strip poker)
visitem: Needs to be at least 17, which means reaching the band's live performance event.
emrom: Is set during the bonfire event. requires both emkiss to be True and visitem to be 17+.

There are 2 important observations here:
1) Emily's romance starts in the main story, not her sidequest. In fact without the emkiss variable we don't get any sex scenes with her.
2) It doesn't matter if the MC picks the best choices. He can make fun of her, side with Christie, tell her things she doesn't like and have a low relationship score but it doesn't matter. Emily will turn out improved.

The game is designed in a way that romances don't really affect the main story. What is to happen will happen and active romances get some more scenes and different dialogue. However Emily's being the first tracked romance may be significant.

My prediction:

Emily will get her own chapter where she will turn into a superhuman.
She will join Ella because she will get infected around the time that MC is with Ella too.
I don't think that she will turn from a pill, but it's likely that SIN will be involved somehow.
Depending on his relationship with MC, her mood will be different, but her motions will remain the same.
The romance may make a difference in the endings, if MC has to do the "who's with me" speech.

So if MC would sit down with Deus and they would play chess or any other game, how could MC win in case when touching and scanning memories is ok and Deus obviously can predict the future and victory strategy? This is a clear-cut case of superrationality. Is it even winnable by anyone of them without ungentlemanly behaviour?

We don't know the full extent of Deus's power, it's clear he knows a lot about big events but maybe its harder for him to see the smaller things such as...well a chess match which has numerous possibilities in how it could go.

Unlike a big event like...you know the end of humanity where he can probably see the big and important events and how he could counter them as he knows all the big variables its not like a chess match where it can change rapidly at a moment's notice.

Fortunately for Deus he has HERO to ensure that what he sees plays out the way they want but in a chess match he just has to hope his predictions play out correctly (because there's a damnnnnn lotta moves the MC could make that would throw off the predictions and I'm sure the MC could tell he'd be cheating at some point...like his power has to have a 'tell')

MC on the other hand we know a lot about and by utilizing hidden tentacles he can just figure out every single move Deus could do unless Deus can sense his tentacles.

Although on a serious note: Deus would probably win even if he couldn't figure out all the small variables (the moves) the MC would make. The MC doesn't really give me the vibe of "chess player" he'd ultimately (and probably) get bored at some point if they just constantly counter each other.
