The Katie choice at the table had me literally step away for a minute. And then I was somewhat surprised Lily took it that easily, considering how close we got that time at her house. I thought there was no way this doesn't blow up here and now.

The final reveal is interesting on one hand and on the other it doesn't tell much. Assuming it really was Elaine who sent the email that tells us nothing about the "gold digger". And there's still the suspicion that Jolina and Bella are working together so the footage could be doctored or from some other time.

yeah and the punishment isn't even bad considering you can either have some fun with both of them or choose to go home with Jenna there definitely isn't any N** or c**k stuff like some1 tried to claim
Hey why MC should be punished for somethin

In real life I wouldn’t want to have anything to do with either of them anymore. Of course if she would look straight into my eyes and would tell me that nothing happened things would be different

So taking a cue from spectre1viper's review:
The game kind of sets up the player for failure as it allows and often encourages you to romance every girl in the game like a harem but the author claims it isn't a harem game. It also goes to the extent of hardly any of the girls knowing you are romancing six other girls at the same time and the few that do find out tell you that they are OK with it (Jenna and Jolina for example). As of episode 19, you can literally romance every girl in the game with no consequences. This is going to be quite the feat for the author to resolve in later episodes if there truly isn't a harem ending. Instead of forcing the player to choose, he allows you to romance everyone at the same time. I have six girlfriends in the game. That is a lot to resolve and it will be hard to blame it all on the player when the game kind of encourages it and allows it.
I stopped playing the game a while ago because of this. Is it already a bit clearer now on how the rest of the game is going to develop in terms of the effect of having romanced multiple (all) women?
I mean, it's a game. If it doesn't stop you from pursuing all girls (so in other words to see all the scenes, because why not, it's a porn game after all and not real life) then of course I'm going for it.
You don't want to find out your years old save game is suddenly useless though from one update to the next because suddenly 'real life' rules for this are implemented retroactively. Even if they do make sense.

Whipped?

He illegally hacked her pc and spied on her to the point where she had a breakdown.

He wasn't being whipped, he was being a decent person.

I feel bad your friends.....
Sorry Avaron while I usually find your comments to be on point this time your argument seems flawed. At least my MC had nothing to do with hacking

Google is your friend...

Solution. The missing dll api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0. dll is installed with a Windows update. To resolve this issue, download and install the Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows from Microsoft

Ya man, I used google. I actually already downloaded program and also paste it into the windows folder. But it still shows the same error message.

This is the first time this happens, for the past 19 chapters there wasn’t any issues.

I am betting that this probably has to do something with using the latest Ren'py build to create episode 20. The clear giveaway is that episode 19 only had one executable, but episode 20 had two, a 64-bit executable (the "main" game) and the win-32 version (32-bit for older versions of Windoze).

Cheeky felt when he started WTHI that allowing (encouraging as you put it) people to cheat and avoid getting caught was not only desirable by most, but necessary from a design perspective until we came out with the quickstart so people didn't have to replay a huge game if they didn't get the girl after playing around.

Yeah, but you did install/run the package right? Just download the file and put it in a folder does nothing by itself.

Sister wives? Wouldn't necessary be any incest, they would just share the same guy... Just because two girls share the same guy doesn't mean they have to hump each other as well.
Like, yes, you maybe can implement it this way. But I'm not sure this censored version will be good. Anyway, after this update, I'll just wait for a full game with a walkthrough. And maybe play it there, with knowing all the endings and if I won't forget about it of course.

That why save scumming and having virtually unlimited saves is a good thing. I have multiple playthroughs, a Jenna-only version, a Katie-only version, and a sidegirls-only version. Lots of fun to be had in all of them.

Problem with games such as this is when the creator basically tell the perverts.. No, you can't have your cake and eat it too, you can't lick the cream, frosting and get the cherry on top... Here, have some sprinkles... :ROFLMAO:

So annoying. Too much like real life? Maybe it's better to go to other games where the girls (and women) all worship at the altar of dick and throw their legs open any time he appears?

Great episode and an apparent reveal as well. However I am calling this a red herring. Its too neat and tidy, living up to what pretty much everybody suspected. There is something a foot, that we havent figured out yet.
my gut tells me bella is the mastermind behind this, something feels off about her i dont know why

And there's still the suspicion that Jolina and Bella are working together so the footage could be doctored or from some other time.
I have to agree with that ending being a red herring, I mean sure she could have been the one for the mail.. however the mail was send iirc a week before the start of everything. So this was before she knew about the will conditions and about a third inheritor. As much as I want to know her reasoning on it I doubt she is the snake in this situation.

Also I remember the gold digger.. if you ask about it at the Circus combined if you read on what the tapes say about the third person involved, it seems it is someone who knows both the MC and Elain and if they knew who it was it would actually piss them both off... So that combined with the Circus predictions and what not. It is safe to say Elaine is not the Gold Digger but that does leave Belle being the highest suspect.

From what I remember from the lawyer also, he does say she is cunning and calculating and she knows about ALL the wills and conditions, he also gives you a subtle warning/hint about it being someone close to you who is not being honest and that the inheritance for that gold digger is more depended on your actions/interactions with them instead of their own actions.
So following that again that leaves Belle as the prime suspect. She is the one who is close to both MC and Elaine, She is also the one who has the highest chance of being able to know about both the wills, weather it be by if you told her about it or not ( not sure if you had the option to tell or not been a while ) and it seems that the lawyer has made it clear that someone has a condition on them that they are not allowed to talk about the conditions and Elaine has talked about some of hers so far, so again she falls out of that category and so does the MC.

Not sure if Jolina and Belle are working together though, as I am pretty sure that coffee shop thing got introduced through Jenna. Also the one with the most to lose would again be Belle, she has nowhere to go it seems and no job no nothing. How did she survive and live for all this time ?

The only other person here that could actually surprise be a gold digger and that would shock both the MC and Elaine would be Monica, however she falls of the list as in the terms again from the Circus predictions it is stated that she merely be 1 option in the way of the MC getting his fortune.( again been a while since I played and don't remember all the early stuff unless I do a full replaythrough which I prob should )

I am still trying to find out the meaning behind the " she's DIZZY in Name but not in nature " hint that the gypsy gave because
god knows I have tried many things to figure that one out, by searching name meanings, other names for dizziness etc etc and got fuck all on it

Anyways from all that has gathered so far the highest and prime suspect I have is Belle....Which I would hate to say will piss me off a bit because I genuinely did have a sort of liking towards her ( not that she was in my top main girls.... That would be Jenna and Katie..)

HSHS1111 Am curious to know where the Jolina and Bell working together came from ? is it mentioned somewhere that they know one another or is there a hint somewhere you picked up that I missed ? Genuinely curious about this since you mention it.
