Well, wills in adult games could have different rules. And maybe Monica is beneficiary in the will and only gets the money if she holds a baby from MC, or else gets nothing (or she only gets her share of the money if blood ties her to MC, so Monica, Katie or Jenna would have to get pregnant from MC), it’s a far stretch (very far) but could be possible.

After all, in real life I am not sure a will can impose you not seeing someone (I am not sure how wills work in MC's country), but from where I am (Spain), by law you cannot even leave a son or daughter without inheritance (buy law a third of the assets of the deceased get divided to the offspring, and another third of the assets must go to either one or all) you can only freely dispose to a third party one third of your assets (that is the 'legitimate' part, the 'improvement' part and the free part equally divided).

Also, some or all will conditions could be partly or totally mutually exclusive, meaning e.g. if Monica for fills her conditions it means that MC fails to for fill his, and maybe Elain can for fill her conditions independently (or not), there are many possibilities.

There's absolutely zero chance it's Monica, if her "Will" conditions is something like you mentioned, then why would she try and hold out on the MC for so long?

Monica would have to be the greatest actress of all time in order pull this shit off, and she lives in house with Jenna, the ultimate snoop that gets off on spying on people, there's no way Jenna wouldn't know about Monica.

I hate theories that don't any any supporting evidence.

Hopefully we'll start getting a few more bread crumbs in the coming episodes and start to see a bigger picture, then the madness can really begin .... or continue I should say.

 

[Avaron1974]

I can't for the life of me seem to find this, when did this happen?

It happens in episode 9.

It's a day out with Jenna, first to the lawyers then to Elaine's to check on her PC where they meet Bella.

It's like there's an echo or something ...

LOL. Yes please. Let it continue. I can't stop thinking of all the possible wild outcomes and twists that could (or much more likely, could not) happen in this game. The possibilities are endless.

I think I will just run of with Mabel and Wanda and take the money.

If Lily turns out to be the gold digger my life will be dragged in an enddless downward spiral of depression and despair that I most likely will never be able to recover from.

Good point, but, after all Jenna and Katie are the daughters, so maybe they do know. And the whole plan is to get MC to stay with them (either Monica, Jenna or Katie) so he loses his share, making Monica (and therefore Jenna and Katie) getting not ony there part of the inheretance but a bigger share because MC gets none (so they only have to share with Elaine, given she complies her part).

Said that, I do not expect this to be the case. It is a bit 'much' even for my twisted mind.

OK, just finished replaying the game from the start up to the end of episode 18 (had lost my ep 17 savegame). Wow!

The game is just awesome! I'm usually not one to get really immersed in 'being' the MC but this one pulls it off to a considerable degree. I love the gradual development of the attraction and relationship especially with the main girls. I love the large amount of choices it gives, plus the fact that you don't need to pick the optimal choice every single time to progress your story with that girl (I hate it when games require you have maximum points to progress, that's basically taking away a lot of your choice!). Speaking of choices, I also love the ridiculous ones put in there occassionally that no one in their right mind would pick, but are there just for laughs. The possibility to say "I think I smell cow shit" during the romantic picnic with Monica had me in stitches!

My main thoughts for ep 18:
- The carnival was very nice, giving the opportunity to further the relationship with Monica, AND sneak around with Mabel and Zahra!
- I'm hoping I didn't mess things up too badly with Katie (my #1!) by declining to hang with her, but I needed to do my Cupid work with Debbie and Lily. Yes, my MC is selfless that way! (Please ignore the above comment regarding Mabel and Zahra )
- A sub route with Theresa? That got me curious enough to give it a try!

 

[Solid Sender]

Debbie and Katie are pure of heart, hot as fuck, and emotionally available enough to add intimacy and depth to the relationship without being being too possessive. Both are struggling honestly with their challenges in becoming more mature in ways I find endearing and make me want to help and reassure them. But they aren't so insecure that they constantly feel the need to be given permission to be who they are. A grouping with them and the MC would be awesome and needs to happen.... please.

So this Bitch Elaine expect MC to believe that she treated MC like shit even after his dad died because she was in grief and was ashamed to look MC in the eyes for treating him bad and it was easy to continue being a bitch rather than being good to him? LMAO.

that bitch threatened MC again and again that she would throw out his things if he do not take them. how the fuck i am supposed to believe after this that she threw him out from his own house only because she was ashamed to see MC. If that was the reason she would not have threatened him. Bullshit.

so you had to treat MC like shit because his dad asked you to do so and as soon as dad died instead of opening up to MC and asking for forgiveness she threw him out of the house? Bitch i am gonna take that house and gonna take away every single penny from you.

Thank you developer for not forcing her in this game. Had a lot of fun in replying her aggressively.

Obviously she's a Gold digger and this sudden change in her behavior is because of Dad's will. I see no other way.

Getting what was left to her doesn't make her a gold digger.

If that was the case then MC is also a gold digger. Elaine was closer to the dad for a lot longer and has more claim to that money than the MC does.

MC is his biological son. He should inherit that wealth from his dad. That's only normal. How come he is a gold-digger? In that sense every person ever lived in this planet is a gold-digger cuz they all have been exploiting their parents financially. Here Dad was an asshole to MC and not the other way around. BTW Dad himself called Elaine as Gold-digger. He knows her the best..right?

BTW she was free to leave MC's dad when he wanted her to treat a child like shit. She instead chose to stay with his father because of his DOLLARS and made a child's life hell. The one whose mother recently died. she's a gold-digger.

Dude i really don't care if Elaine is the gold digger (tho i hope not cuz she'll break my heart) cuz i'm a sucker for her and a lot here are even if the guy above say to "speak for my self" when i call us simp's, we are

I look forward to the final meeting with the lawyer. I am curious to meet the other gold digger...
I'm only at the end of ep.15. Haven't played ep 18 yet. Something about this meeting is mentioned in ep18 when exactly is it going to be?

 

[gestved]

Never played it, how far away is the ending? anywhere in sight or it will take a while still?

I hope the meeting happens soon. I really don't want it to be in the last 2-3 updates. Feel like I'd rather have that confrontation and then several updates of the fallout, dealing with the impact on the relationships, possible goodbyes, and then endings with flash forward epilogues.

Am I wanting to much?

I believe the plan is 24-26 updates and we are at 18.

 

[gestved]

oh, so probably at least another year in the oven

I want the same. We wait so much, we create theories of who this person could be.. Dev may surprise us yet and at this meeting we can even see our woman to whom we are already attached.. It would be a shot straight in the heart.
Although Katie and Monica (I love them) are definitely not the second gold digger, but if they were, I wouldn't have anyone to play for.. Because only they are the most important to me in this game.

And choosing money is not that good.. because we wouldn't get it right away. We got a certain sum every year as long as we didn't see Monica, Katie and Jenna. Either way, I would choose women over money. Money is not the most important thing in life, apparently for MC's father it was important. And MC's father is a total asshole, I don't like him.
Honestly, Dev made MC father so well, and I guess everyone doesn't like him.
