Yeah but the point is Maya could never have co signed a loan. She's an 18 year old with 0 assets and no job.It's not that they're stupid, so long as one of the co-signers has the money not to default on the loan and pay it off, has good credit, then lenders will typically go through with it. It's not always a good idea though cause if the student borrower defaults, then the person who co-signed with them will be legally liable which would explain patrick's threat to financially bankrupt maya in the long term. Not exactly the type of family one should ever get financial help from. He's basically a dickhead that needs curb stomped.

If we assume that Maya's father was controlling her all her life to a certain extent, controlling her friendships, her hobbies, her attempts at independence, etc, that leaves a mark on many people and believing that it is as easy as "tell him to fuck off "is very naive, you don't get courage out of nowhere and especially against someone who has had power over you for so long.And if Maya or Josy aren't actively controlling the MC by waving their pussies in his face and playing on his emotions, then how is Patrick controlling his adult daughter, who can tell him to fuck off and go and live her own life any way she chooses?
I believe that about as much as i believe in the tooth fairy. There is zero chance that she didn't know what was going to happen. Her entire role was to distract the MC so quinn and company could get him to the dik's mansion. She likely knew exactly what was going to happen and lied her ass off just to escape the consequences since she does like the MC in the story. That's guilt for you. Her character is one i fully trust to be a dishonest cunt when it comes to accepting responsibility of any kind. Instead of dealing with her issues, she's trying to find shortcuts (like free tuition from the hots) and it's blowing up in her face constantly. That is a person that apparently does not learn from mistakes and that's a sinking ship much like the titanic. Eventually she's going to hit rock bottom with that sort of behavior without someone constantly there to prop her up. That makes her a sympathetic character to some extent but unless her choices start to drastically change for the better, the MC is going to effectively be her verbal punching bag, shoulder to cry on and financial crutch if players choose her route (just my opinion from personal experience with such people that her character reminds me of). Don't get me wrong, her character has some nice moments but they are not redeeming for poor decision making ability. Yes, story wise, her father can obviously be held responsible for not teaching her the necessary life lessons on how to be a responsible adult but at some point after about 18, a person has to grow up and start making their own decisions to move away from any past trauma rather than continue to allow it to reinforce ill behavior patterns.Maya sayd she even didnt knew that was going to happen, and i think she was saying the true.
LOLI am really sorry DavDR , but I have reached my reaction limit, too bad your reaction score can't increase by 1 right? Don't worry here it is , a big one for you

It's Bella.Time to ask serious questions, who the hell is Tybalt's troll on Rooster? The guy is relentless and it's actually fucking funny lmao
I would say Rusty maybe but idk if he would try to mess with him that hard haha
1. Buy all experience boosts (+5% to skills) except working at the beginning.Is there a Dik Mansion renovation guide? I have a guide that only do the first one but is there any more after 1st one? Thanks.
This whole plot makes me wonder where DPC is going with this and how is he going to solve it. Leaving aside whether it makes a lot of sense or not, I'm curious what DPC is going to come up with to fix it.Yeah but the point is Maya could never have co signed a loan. She's an 18 year old with 0 assets and no job.
This whole thing has been fucked up from the start, the government program is called Guaranteed Student Loans, you don't need a co signer because the government is your co signer. As initially presented in ep 6, Patrick was the co signer. This made no sense at all because the co signer has no control over the money. Even worse, with Patrick being the co signer Maya could have just walked away from the loan and left Patrick stuck with the bill. In fact, in most states, the bank sends the check directly to the college, the borrower never actually touches a single dollar. So Patrick never actually had any kind of leverage over Maya.
DPC could have learned all of this in 15 minutes of reading a Wikipedia article, but he's a big time Patreon Dev, he don't need no stinkin' Wikipedia. So in the last update he revealed that Maya was the co signer. This makes even less sense, Maya couldn't even co sign a loan for a pack of cigarette's. Also Maya was supposedly ignorant of all of this, despite the fact that she could have read a Wikipedia article, if she would just stop watching her damn movies for 15 minutes.
I know he's a fairly new character, but I'm putting my money on Lucas. The poster has demonstrated fairly personal knowledge about Fruit Fucker's habits; For example, he knows where that watch was purchased. It's just a hunch that it's Lucas, but I like my odds.Time to ask serious questions, who the hell is Tybalt's troll on Rooster? The guy is relentless and it's actually fucking funny lmao
I would say Rusty maybe but idk if he would try to mess with him that hard haha
Ok, but here is the quid of the issue, Maya is not that people you mention. I am sure there are people like you described and they sure are a pain in the ass. And is also true that we read the stories from our own subjective view. And there is nothing wrong with that.(just my opinion from personal experience with such people that her character reminds me of)
She didn't knew Quinn was going to electrocute them, that's what she said, and that's what i believe. And yes, i think that kidnaping was the only real bad thing she did. But then again, it was the DIKs who plan it, and we are all cool with that. I don't find that kind of jokes tolerable, but it is a different culture than mine, where thoose kind of stupid and violent jokes are acceptable. And also Maya did it under some sort of pression. So, even if she did it, she is still a sweet girl, weak at best, but nothing else.I believe that about as much as i believe in the tooth fairy. There is zero chance that she didn't know what was going to happen. Her entire role was to distract to the MC so quinn and company could get him to the dik's mansion. She likely knew exactly what was going to happen and lied her ass off just to escape the consequences since she does like the MC in the story.
You are being exagereted. Again could describe well the people you mention, but not Maya. She doesn't know how to solve her problems, but it is not her fault. What do you expect? That a girl with no financial education, no money, and noone older to advise her solve a financial problem at 19 years old?. She didn't choose a shortcut, couse there was no longcut to choose from. She went for the only solution she could find. Besides that her main motivation is to have a good education in a fictitious world in wich most of the people want to have sex, get drunk and get high. Just compare her to her brother and tell me she is irresponsable and inmature. She is not more, she is just more unlucky.Her character is one i fully trust to be a dishonest cunt when it comes to accepting responsibility of any kind. Instead of dealing with her issues, she's trying to find shortcuts (like free tuition from the hots) and it's blowing up in her face constantly.
Wich mistake she did twice? She trusted her father, twice. But that's a hard topic. Most of people are inclined to seek for reconciliation with their parents. Is a complicate issue. Besides that?That is a person that apparently does not learn from mistakes and that's a sinking ship much like the titanic. Eventually she's going to hit rock bottom with that sort of behavior without someone constantly there to prop her up.
maybe we'll find out about jealousy....You must be registered to see the links

It's time for the first real status update for episode 8, and the development is ongoing.
This week, it's mostly been planning and writing. I've been writing a lot, as I've been in the zone.
I know what I want to fit into this episode, so I'm writing as much of the layout as possible to grasp the workload that lies ahead.
Episode 8 will be the episode that wraps up the second season, so I'm very excited about it and will do my best to do it justice.
Game crashes (v0.7.2)
I've been getting some reports about random "out of memory" crashes that I wanted to address. I hope the following information can help more players solve these issues.
If you're experiencing any "out of memory" crashes after patching the game to the latest version (v0.7.2), I would recommend that you delete the contents of the "game/cache" folder.
There are three ".rpyb" files there that you can safely delete. When you restart the game, the cache will be rebuilt, and this could solve your problem.
In the future, I will supply pre-built cache files with the patches.
Poll news
This week, I posted the first poll for episode 8, a cosmetic poll for Sage. Sign up as a $10 patron to participate in itYou must be registered to see the links.
I have planned several fun polls for episode 8, and I have also decided to change how the special render polls are conducted to get more balance in the special render sets.
At the moment, some girls have three render sets, whereas others only have one, and I'd like this to even out for the sake of the game.
I will reveal the details about how the new polls will look like as they are posted.
Walkthrough news
I've written the walkthrough, and proofreading is underway. I will release it as soon as possible, at the latest next Friday, but likely earlier.
Have a nice weekend

I am sorry but are you referring to render sets? Or the story ?maybe we'll find out about jealousy....![]()
No, I don't think so. This story not even close to the end - there will be at least 1 more full season.I don't think the game will be that long, man.
My gut tells me that episode 8 will be the last
Jill's StoryI am sorry but are you referring to render sets? Or the story ?
Oh okayJill's Story
Maybe the wslkthrough will give us some indication
DPC has said that the game will go 14-20 episodes. I believe that was confirmed in his last ask me anything set of questions as well.No, I don't think so. This story not even close to the end - there will be at least 1 more full season.
Maya couldn't be a cosigner to a loan unless:It's not that they're stupid, so long as one of the co-signers has the money not to default on the loan and pay it off, has good credit, then lenders will typically go through with it. It's not always a good idea though cause if the student borrower defaults, then the person who co-signed with them will be legally liable which would explain patrick's threat to financially bankrupt maya in the long term.

I agree that it's a lousy way to love someone, but you're approaching this from a liberal (literal, not political) sense, where Maya, as an adult, should be free to make her own decisions, her own mistakes, and to grow as a human.Sorry, I can't agree. It's not love to treat a person as your own prop. I'm sure Patrick thinks he has Maya's best interest in mind as he does his level best to override every choice she makes, but I don't much care what he thinks. He crossed a line when he went from cutting off Maya's support to tricking her into giving up any alternate form of support. That's not love, that's borderline megalomania.
Also, as I've said before, the problems with Patrick definitely run deeper than the tuition shenanigans. Consider this:

DavDR sees this as proof that Maya's a useless character incapable of taking action. I see it as an indication that Maya's had someone controlling her life for a long time and really doesn't know how assert herself without making things worse. It's easy to say she should be stronger willed, but decisiveness takes practice like everything else.
I had to do that at 18-19 years old with next to no knowledge of how to even balance a checkbook. Sure, my parents are responsible for not teaching me that shit but it was MY personal responsibility to solve at that point just like it's every individual's personal responsibility even if they don't possess the knowledge in that moment. It's why we learn by doing ultimately. Maya is proving that she either can't learn or simply refuses to learn. That's entirely on her character. If DPC means to depict her character as maturing, she obviously needs to start making some better choices and decisions, if only a few to show that her character is growing in a good way.What do you expect? That a girl with no financial education, no money, and noone older to advise her solve a financial problem at 19 years old?
I doubt anyone would find many of the situations in this game as being tolerable in real life. Most of what happens, like what the diks did to get the MC to the mansion would have wound up with me handing several people their own ass in real life as i imagine most others would do the same out of an act of self defense. Again, yet another reason i find the story laughable at the worst. Hilariously absurd at the best. That isn't in any way meant to disparage the game, just that DPC has definitely crossed over into the realm of high comedy at this point.She didn't knew Quinn was going to electrocute them, that's what she said, and that's what i believe. And yes, i think that kidnaping was the only real bad thing she did. But then again, it was the DIKs who plan it, and we are all cool with that. I don't find that kind of jokes tolerable, but it is a different culture than mine, where thoose kind of stupid and violent jokes are acceptable.
That was just me poking some humor in regards to her character was all and one part pointing out that art doesn't always imitate reality (life).You are being exagereted. Again could describe well the people you mention, but not Maya.
Trusting sage would show she actually is learning from her mistakes. She isn't doing that though, at least not yet anyway. What I meant from her mistakes that she repeated was in regards to quinn. The stun gun incident (if she really didn't know it was going to happen), she then goes on to trust quinn about tuition? After using an obvious innuendo about loose hips when she was at the pool in the HOTs dorm, all the scavenger hunt stuff that was on her list compared to the other pledges? I mean, at some point you'd think she would have at least considered the MC's words about not trusting her if she had any common sense at all. Never happened because she's either extremely naive or just plain stupid. I've got a sister that's naive as hell and it's tedious trying to get her to learn from her own mistakes. Sometimes, i honestly think she's stupid but then her intelligence shines through in moments i don't expect in regards to business decisions. It's really easy for people to take advantage of her though which just confuses me to no end. I gave up trying to protect her from herself over a decade ago cause you can only chase off so many jerks before it becomes moot. That's what maya reminds me of the most, either she matures to a point she can take care of herself against others that want to take advantage of her or her character is simply one dimensional and not worth the trouble if it doesn't grow out of that behavior pattern. Makes me think DPC is writing himself into a corner in regards to maya's character. If the only relatively decent end for her ends up being the MC playing white knight for her, that's pretty much an overused trope.She trusted Sage (it seems) when she promised free tuition. But again, without Sage she doesnt have any plan either, so...
As i've stated above, her character is overly naive, far too trusting of people she shouldn't be, especially when she's warned about them and doesn't seem to learn from that in the slightest. It took a proverbial gut check for her to realize quinn was a liar and took advantage of her being naive. Hopefully that experience for her character wakes her up to reality in the future updates to start taking care of herself without the MC having to constantly play her white knight. Some people like that kind of fantasy though, just isn't my cup of tea however.She did not screw up anything. She first, was fucked over by her own Father, something that most kid not expecting from their parent, nor they should . So I can't blame her for this. and then she heard a rumor she was not the only one. It is a very simple fact that , this rumor was spreading like a wild fire, and Quinn had no problem with it as long as its benefited her. so Maya once again taken advantage of by someone, in this case a sociopath.
but you all play the game of Blame the actual victim, and not the perpetrators.
