Josy should have just stayed the easy-going girl-next-door from the beginning, a tremolo/josy relationship doesnt even need big drama to move forward at this point anymore

But she turned into so much of a nothing burger, additionally got suddenly insecure and shallow and starts the worst hobby possible, ugh

I love that btw xD

Josy: " How dare that Asshole at a party lash out after I rejected him and tell me how I'm just a basic bitch??!?! I'm going to prove him wrong by choosing to invest time money and effort into one of the most basic bitch hobby I can think of! "

If nothing else she is very funny.

That "easy-going girl-next-door" was a front, a smokescreen to hide the insecure, directionless, scared girl she actually is and always was and so many of you failed to pick up on this.

I don't believe this is being quickly written, because as I've been saying, this has been something of Josy's since the very beginning, being unsure of herself and her direction. If anything, I'd say it's just finally being addressed and if people didn't see this coming for her then they weren't paying very close attention.

So you think that her main arc of "finding her identity" was planned from the very beginning? DPC really skimped on his talent in writing the characters here.

Ida, the catfish from Swyper and Micha's fat "friend".

Don't you mean fatfish

Imo that main arc was indeed planned from the beginning, but maybe not by becoming an influencer. My guess is that is just one of the many smaller side stories that writers decide upon while they're writing the story. It's also fitting: Many people who don't truly know who they are or want to do become influencers in modern times, at least for a while before they finally found "their true calling".

Me: What do you do for a living?
She: I'm an influencer!
Me [Trying to impress her]: Cool, I'm unemployed too

 

[BigTTiger]

I think Bianca's going to make the connection of MC being Lynette's son because when she gets the pictures, from the ski trip she's going to see the monkey face MC's making and refer back to her mother's picture with her friend's outside Jill's now family home.

She's a student though, she doesn't necessarily need a job yet.

Yes, because insecurity and uncertainty was baked in from very early on and you can see it in Eps 1 & 2.

The reason that y'all seem so mad that it's "coming out of nowhere", which it isn't, is that a) you didn't pick up on the signs throughout the game, and b) you don't seem to realise how much she was putting her own life, her own self, on hold for Maya, a fact she acknoweldges in Ep 11 because that's exactly what she was doing this whole time. The fact that she was doing this is precisely why she hasn't had much development on her own because she putting someone else before herself and thus holding herself back from her own personal growth as well as even finding her voice, and again, it was plain to see this.

DPC didn't forget about her, he's not scrambling to make something for her with this quest to find her identity, he wrote her as a self-sacrificing, insecure girl who was so focused on helping Maya with her issue that she lost herself in the process, and now with that issue resolved, she doesn't know where she stands and who she is but now she's working on that and finally letting other people help and be there for her for a change.

That is if she indeed is Miranda's daughter (imo 99% certain) and remembers the picture of her mother.

 

[ArmoredCascade]

i can't stop laughing at Sage's Walk of Shame! hahaha

I doubt it, the mc's heritage revealed will probably happen in canon and not only on the jill path but maybe it happens at the same time

 

[Naughty Gamer]

Anyone have the for Season 1-2 android port?

 

[Better Cock Spock]

Spock, time to cue up that “Best Girl” meme you made, I think… Better Cock Spock

Actually MiltonPowers made it, because he hates me

My guess is it will happen on all paths but often on different moments. It's already quite certain we will also find out about his heritage on Sage's path, thanks to the seed planted in ep 11.

In June, coming up on playing this game 4 years.

So yes. I look back at some of the past events in the game and look at it that way.

I was referring to a strange feeling of nostalgia, not related to the game, but to your life. Although I understand what you mean. Replaying some episodes, I involuntarily recall the events that happened to me during the first playthrough. Music usually has that kind of influence, too.

 

[ArmoredCascade]

and i love Tommy's show me your ways! attitude

She was more than ready to leave Maya for Mc even as early as EP 2. Don't you remember? She thought she wasn't admitted at B&R and was ready to skip town and before that she wanted MC to fuck her at their date even when she had already told him she was cheating(She truly is her Daddy' little girl, huh? xD) .

Don't try and sell this, "Oh, Josy was ALWAYS prioritizing Maya over herself the whole game" when we all know it's not true considering she is more obssesed with MC than pretty much any girl in this game regardless if you reject her or not.

She helps Maya sure, but that was AFTER they recoinciled when she got accepted at B&R. When Josy is alone she is all about prioritizing herself to the point of even asking MC if they think they would've worked together if things were differently or trying to seduce him in EP 10 regardless of the route if you hang out with her.

That makes it infinitely more humorous! (My apologies to you, of course.)
