Note to the developers regarding the Gallery: the thumbnail pic for the coffee-shop scene in Episode 3 (Scene 4) is misleading as it shows Jolina angry at being propositioned by MC - that happens in the next coffee-shop scene in Episode 6.

I just go back and enjoy billions, and billions of options.

Honestly the quickstart option kills the suspense when making a decision in this game. I don't have to fear making a mistake because I can just restart the chapter. It's the ultimate rollback ability, not only can I roll back one decision I can roll back all decisions chapter by chapter.

Hey, I missed this option. I was able to select Lily on her own, but when I suggested Katie as well, she broke up with the MC. She seemed into ishareing the MC during the beach house scene a few updates ago, so I am not sure what stats I am missing. Not enough Lily points?
I think it's the opposite. I.e., too many Lily points. That option only appears if MC is on the "Romancing (Casual Sex)" path with Lily. If MC is on the "Romancing (Girlfriend)" path, MC is forced to choose between Lily and Katie.
There was actually a bug that snuck through that prevented a particularly popular option with Lily (and the crew) last EP from coming up for a lot of folks (it should be an option for casual or gf). I went into detail in the post linked below, but it is already fixed on our patreon and next EP we will probably end up asking a question at the start to fix it for people who didn't realize it should have been an option.

Still got a bunch of pages to read, but I couldn't resist posting my theory on who's the 'gold-digger etc. I'm pretty sure that it's not correct, so feel free to shoot me down in flam ... err, sorry about that, having flashbacks.

Adding Zarah only complicates the theory, if Bella and Jolina have any romance or business, that's enough already.

Elaine eventually went to Jolina's, so if it weren't for the suspicions we have about her, Bella's tale would be pretty solid at this point, except that precisely, "who trusts Bella?" , who could very well have made Elaine's cell phone disappear to prevent her from communicating with MC.

acewinz Hello. About the Bug I have reported: It is definitely caused by the WT Mod by Koga3 and has nothing todo with something messed up in the Vanilla Scripts - as you had already checked.

I just renamed the Original unmodded "game" Folder, copied the modded Save Files over and voila:

I think I've seen almost all the content of the chapter (I think I'm just missing some dialogue related to particular situations) so I can give my unsolicited judgment.

I'll start with the things I didn't like, which are highly subjective:
- the chapter seemed short to me, shorter than the previous one to say, but I think the main reason is that I found it more a "technical" chapter than a narrative one, with many important junctures highlighted and several service explanations.
- i have a problem with the episodic narrative, especially on this medium. two chapters ago we found out that Elaine was at Jolina's cafe, two chapters later we know nothing more about it. i know we're really talking about a few days in game time, but to me apnea can last for a couple of minutes not a couple of months

now the things I liked:
-Lily, her segment is great (apart from a clarification that I'll ask later), the fact that it opens to a possible polyamorous relationship with Debbie a surprise now unexpected, we'll see how it goes on
- I also really liked the segment with Natasha, it's right that revenge porn is punished in some way, here too a lot of curiosity, at the end Katie and the girls already know, so I don't think there will be terrible consequences as long as we don't go to blackmail, but to be an interesting subplot.
- the real bombshell of the chapter however remains the glimpse of a Jenna sharing MC with Katie, we are on the side of a possiiblity in a million, but at least there is one!!!!!! really unexpected
- I also really liked the segment with Zarah, in general I think it's with the secondary characters that this game really gives its best, Zarah is a very secondary character and by far the least attractive, except for special kinks, but in my opinion he is divinely written, he really has a soul, really good.

now the things that i am not clear about:
-Lily complains that we neglected her, now it doesn't seem to me that there were occasions when I could call her and I didn't, am I forgetting something? because if it was the developers who forced me to neglect her I'm starting to get nervous... let's not play games
- the two girls at the beach house: how much of a trap are they going to be? in the end I decided to host them even if not related to them. Jolina has basically helped MC twice, I can't turn my back on her for suspicions, even Bella has theoretically only helped MC, with her the suspicions are beyond the wooden horse left at the gates of a city.., but you can't leave her on the street.... I hope I don't regret it.
- the final reading of the contract with the fund will be in a couple of weeks, which could correspond to 3-4 chapters, in my opinion there is a real risk that it will be practically the closing of the game... what do you think?

This has always been a concern for me. I hope that the game won't end with the final will reading, a quick confrontation/conversation, and then roll credits. I would like to see the game have a full update or two of aftermath, the shit hitting the proverbial fan as he now needs to deal with all of his playing around, the scheming of others, his scheming, and whatever decision he ended up making. To me the story needs that extra time for the MC to deal with everything and everyone. Will have to wait and see what happens.

No need to worry about that. The will reading will not be the end of the game. I figure we'll have to have at least one or two regular updates for the MC to properly react to how things hash out there. And then the epilogues for all the characters and the mc of course.

Which episode will Dizzy be revealed in?

If the reading is in two weeks ("game time") then a time jump would probably make sense.

I honestly can't see this stretching out for 14 more episodes unless there's more drama to uncover.

Shhh, Dad's not dead. This was all a ruse to try and avoid the IRS and RICO charges. There will be at least 2 updates of courtroom drama and then the required Women's prison scenes as well as Dad being introduced to his cellmate (emphasis on mate).

Last time they talked episodes there were around 25 planned with maybe more depending on what needs wrapping up.

There certainly isn't 14 more to go.

As soon as you tell the lawyer you are giving the house to Elaine, it's hers. There is no changing that, it's in black and white and legally binding.
The decision may be set in stone, but that doesn't mean Elaine actually knows about it yet. The paperwork went to Greg rather than Elaine, and paperwork is rarely noted for its expediency. Admittedly, we could have tried harder to contact her ourselves despite her lack of cell phone, but <something something millennials>. :p

Not sure, we can say it a fact Elaine was at Jo's café at this time, since the pic was distorted and Elaine does deny she was there. Was it faked? Sure Jolina says that is her but Is she working with Bella?
