The obvious answer is that Dizzy is the model industry owner lady that Monica went to visit when you met Wanda and Angel. Technically part of the story, but also a mystery.

The true best outcome would be if it was randomized each game start, so every play through would surprise the player.
That would be neat. "Not it" when it comes to coding and writing so it fits for all chars. :p

Yeah I don't even want to think about the level of continuity disasters in that idea, let alone coding shenanigans , but it would be a cool concept/thought experiment.

You would have to write it Agatha Christie Piorot style when it's impossible to know the protagonist until the reveal, and then have different conclusion episodes. which is a lot of work for a cool but not vital pay off.

Hi ! I have a doubt because I´m not a games specialist: what does mean "walkthrough mod atm", instead of walkthrough?

Cheers

The walkthrough mod changes the game to show you the most "right" choices by highlighting them (at least as far as seeing the most content), while a regular walkthrough is usually a text file telling you what the choices effects are and letting you determine if that is what you want.

Currently the walkthrough mod atm (at the moment) is updated for our game, but not the text walkthrough (which usually follows one Ep behind the current one)

The walkthrough mod is a godsend because it helped me create saves for different paths. I was of course going full-harem initially but in the last two episodes I started feeling a little guilty when more and more girls began declaring how much they love you and want you for themselves. They're pretty well written and convincing as characters.
I still have little groups with girls I hope won't mind sharing :p And almost every single save I have contains Wanda, it's just hard to give her up :D

Looks like a lot of you misread the text. Elaine went as far as contacting as Bella said it "your father's ex girlfriend from the time he was still with your mom; turn out to be some religious nutjob". That implies that was at least 8 years ago, since at the beginning we learn she died 8 years ago. So it's fully plausible DogBoy is Mc's halfbrother. Almost ready to bet this is how Theresa got that cool house.

On with the completely ridiculous theories - we know the 3rd party someone who had relationship with the father while he was with Elaine. So if the father was really really kinky as well as d-bag, why not Sammy? He's leaving town and it may well be is conditions in the will. Maybe the father liked receiving it and not just giving it ;)

Lily is ditzy so she could have the nickname Dizzy. Although she's definitely not a gold-digger and too sweet to have been with a douche like the old man. But let's not completely rule it out, it's clear the writers like to surprise :)

Except she would have been a child making his dad a pedo.

Don't see that happening.

Would she be a child though? The MC and Lily would be what, 19-21 ish? I can't remember if it's stated. The dad died 2/3 weeks before the game started yeah? Who is to say she didn't meet the dad at the hospital while he was sick, he fell hard for her and stuck her in his will as the third... No child/pedo stuff (Thankfully) and it could be made to make sense quite easy. We know Lily' parents are doctors. We know the dad bad mouths people behind their backs (Like with Monica, calling her an evil slut and such which we don't know if that's true yet) A clearer time line would help, also a day counter as the game goes along, i've played through 4 times in different ways and forgot what day i'm up to. lol It did state the day at the beginning of the game but i can't remember if it still does that with the latest episodes, i kind of gloss over, check stats and continue.

The only thing that has me stuck on Lily being Dizzy is that the name, Dizzy comes up twice with Lily. (Or more unless i missed it) the first is on the morning before the party at the pool where she calls herself Dizzy. Then again if you go back to Lily' apartment after the beach. But in that instance shes really shocked at the MC calling her Dizzy which is an odd reaction since she herself referred to that name. This could just be the sneaky devs laying traps though .... lol ;)

I don't truly think Lily is Dizzy. But we were tricked once with Angel, right? Unless she's still a candidate. And I'm also thinking about being tricked in a similar way in another game about your long-lost sister.
All I'm saying is if it were real life, we could rule out Lily. But since surprise is important in fiction, maybe we shouldn't be that categorical with our dismissals.

To some degree there is no such thing as surprise in mystery or fiction. It really has all been done before to one degree or another. The trick in the twist, is the execution.

Hmm I just realized I need to carefully choose the route I'll be on when I'm playing the episode with the reveal, since it will only be impactful once. Katie has had a wonderful transformation to sweet, caring and the right kind of dirty so she's now my fave, it'll be her route. By 'her route' I mean Katie+Debbie+Lily+Wanda :sneaky: And if it were possible, Nikki too since I did invite her at the beach house that evening :)

Yeah i had the same thought and replayed from the man-whore play through to Katie only also with the seeds planted for the 4 some hook up at the beach house. I liked the sound of that spa day also, that'll be a fun time in any play through whether its one girl your going for or trying to juggle. lol

That's fair enough, but what evidence and what in the recording exactly makes you fully dismiss it?
The recording pointed out she was money hungry and he didn't like her very much, also hinted he'd known her for a while and sex was involved so that's all the young ones out automatically.

All the evidence found points to Theresa. Aside from a few off hand comments there are no other bits of evidence that point to anyone else.

Lily's family is already pretty well off and if she was the third she wouldn't be trying to get with the MC because that helps him out. That takes him away from Monica's house the third was trying to keep him there.

Good points. What are your thoughts on who or how many may be involved? I think Jo is definitely in there somewhere. Seems daft that so many woman that come up in MC's life is in some way tied to the dad though. (Story i guess)
