Above all, I hope DPC doesn't make a drama out of it. Like the GF giving the MC an ultimatum not to see Zoey again.

Imo this will only happen on Sage's route and maybe on Jill's route if she goes to Sage for followup advice after their nail parlor talk. They also seem to be the two MG's with the highest trust issues currently.

I've got a feeling the other LI's would care much less about Zoey's confession, if they even care at all.

 

[DarkLords00]

I don't disagree with you. Sage has trust issues now because of her situation with Chad. Tremolo wants to still be friends with Zoey after rejecting her. I see no scenario that exists by telling Sage about Zoey's confession.

All he's going to get, besides I'm assuming a clear conscience is an ultimatum. Sage's trust issues with Zoey are not going to go away because he told her what she said. If anything it will cause her to distrust Zoey more. And in her mind, with Zoey going to B&R, it's a matter of when instead of if. She had that train of thought before she knows Zoey is going to be attending B&R.

This makes no sense, they already talked about it in the phone call. MC can tell Sage to trust him and afterwards you can reject Zoe and even leave the stupid party and staying the night with Sage making a statement that he is choosing her relationship with her over his responsibilites at the party as well as the free "eye candy" from it.

Telling her about Zoey's confession won't help anyone other than give Sage vindication I'm sure she doesn't even want and it would be omega retarded for MC to spill something like that for no reason if he rejected Zoey and has already moved on from her. Also, MC personal relationships are of no consequence to Sage they haven been together for a few months at most.

IF, (and this is a big fucking IF) Sage started becoming controlling and giving ultimatums it's just going to torpedo her likability especially if the player has played an MC nothing but loyal to her. It would be like:

Sage: I forbid you of spending ANY amount of time with that bitch Zoey!
MC: You really are going to tell me with who I can and can't hag out with despite professing my love to you and when I've been nothing but loyal and caring for you? Maybe we should see other people if you don't trust me I can't be in this kind of relationship with you...

I disagree. Zoey will become a larger part of MC's life again if she starts at B&R in the spring. Sage prefers honesty, that includes telling her that your old best friend that might become your best friend again has feelings for you. Holding that a secret, especially with Sage's short fuse when it comes to talking about personal issues, will almost certainly bite MC in the ass in the long run if Zoey keeps on staying in his life.

That's just plain stupid. Zoey going to the same college doesn't mean she is going to be an either bigger or smaller part in MC life that she has been since she came back. With that logic, Chad and Troy and bigger parts of the MC life than his father merely because they also go to the same college and MC knows their most intimate secret xD

Wether Zoey would become a bigger part of MC life is completely up to how much time MC would want to spend with her if you have barely seen her/spend time with her MC auto rejects her so it's not like MC just couldn't choose to see her less often and that's that.

Sometimes I think you guys just want any type of drama (even if the most cheap kind in romance stories out there: Jealousy) .

I think you are falling in the same trap that DPC fell with Josy's character, why would give her an interesting conflict or interactions with her partners when you can just make her insecure? (Which again it's omega stupid for throuple players that only priortized Josy at the hangouts, got her date this episode, and then you hear her say "I don't feel like I matter much") . Instead of cheap shit like this, I would prefer or no drama at all OR the drama should be focused on the future development of their relationship.

- What are their plans long term?

- What about Sage leaving B&R way before MC? How far would she need to travel?

- What it's going to happen when the time will come for M&J to showcase their relationship to their parents?

- What about Isabella's past and (possible) future with MC? What about Jill relationship with her parents and their opinion on her choices and plans to be with MC long term?)

All of this stuff is waaay more interesting than just mere "I'm Jealous of Zoeyy don't see her no moreee!!! "

That comparison doesn't make any sense. It's made pretty clear that unless you're still angry with her, Tremolo wants to build up his friendship with Zoey again. That will be much easier if they're together at B&R.

What if there is no canon and for some reason, there are parallel universes of being a dik where fuckface has done something and have different canons. Example you have a fuckface that is on canon bella path and another version of fuckface that is on canon bella path and messed around with jill

those parallel universes are welcome to cross us to make make some additional scenes and events for each episode of season 3. plus they have a plenty of time, 18 months or so.
btw will dpc be able to sink some dev here on f95, who would make that? ofc this guy should be able to make almost identical models/facial expressions, lights and etc., but thats a 2nd question

If a relationship is built on ultimatums rather than compromises, it is an unhealthy, toxic relationship that is not worth fighting for. That is not how the MC/Sage relationship works. They argue a little, but come to compromises and mutual understanding through dialogue. I can't imagine that Sage, who confessed her love to MC, would start making ultimatums, risking to destroy the happiness that she has found.
Although temporarily distancing from Zoey until her feelings cool down and time heals would be the right decision.

Also, the DIKs love Zoey, so even if the MC rejects her, if she's accepted to B&R, he'll most likely see a lot more of her, unless he chooses to actively avoid her.

Even more so if the theories/wishes of Zoey becoming the first true female (Elena and Heather don't count) DIK becomes true.

When I replayed the whole game a week ago, a couple of scenes from the interlude sounded like a bad omen for a particular Zoey rejection path. These scenes happen if Zoey calms Emma down:


Emma is a totally unhinged bitch so Zoey finding similarities with her worries me. I'm afraid if Zoey takes revenge on Emma (or even just deletes the nudes), she might also do something regretful at some point if the player rejects her

As people said before (including me): Zoey will go full Leah on B&R

Malwarebytes found malware on the Patch (Ep.11 v0.11.0 -> Ep.11 v0.11.1) after I just installed it yesterday. I don't know if it was a false positive but it seemed like there had something in it after I scanned it again.

 

[BigTTiger]

The bombshell I'm waiting on is the whole restaurant debacle especially when Sage finds out about 5 of her sorority sisters and her adoptive father involved which resulted in Mona leaving and the whole "free tuition" bs and when that happens oowee not only is Sage going to be highly pissed but Jade will have the evidence to crush Stephen in divorce court and get him imprisoned and his professor title stripped what a glorious event that will be I can't wait hehe.

Bonus point if her actual boyfriend was a restaurant customer

And an extra two bonus points if the sexvideo with Jade is leaked. (1 for the sex itself and 1 for the video)

And then he dumps her for Zoey !

Yeah, out of all MG's Sage seems to be with the highest possibility of drama no matter what you do, with Jill on a pretty close 2nd place.

This text exchange happens whether you reject Zoey automatically or through choice. And it comes after you have given your "I love You's" to your love interest of choice. Tremolo wants to still be friends with Zoey. And it happens on all rejection paths.

Just because YOU as the player no longer want to be friends with Zoey does not mean Tremolo no longer wants to be friends with her. Clearly he does. And if YOU as the player believes his text is hyperbole, that's projection until proven otherwise. Zoey would have to reciprocate the friendship obviously. But if the choice is up to Tremolo, he will continue being friends with Zoey.

My point in this discussion is that telling Sage about Zoey's confession would only jeopardize either his friendship with Zoey or his relationship with Sage. Telling Sage at this stage is premature because we do not know how Zoey is going to ultimately handle the rejection.

This, agreed. I'm sorry, but anyone that thinks Sage will start making ultimatums doesn't fully understand her character and how she works. Sage is very passionate and explosive at one moment, but she quickly knows how to cool down and think rationally. The whole phone conversation with her shows her fears and her wishes. She is not the controlling type girlfriend, though she does have trust issues. As long as you talk with Sage and don't go behind her back, MC should't have a problem. Zoey's confession, if you go back with her, of course Sage will be really pissed off. Otherwise, as many times before, since MC did not betray Sage, she will be understanding and not be mad at him for rejecting Zoey. Like, how could she be mad when MC just showed her who really matters to him? And MC also now knows what Zoey wants, so he knows when to shut her advances down.

seems to me to be an argument in reverse

Sage is MC's girlfriend, after a long and deliberate path. she's clearly his priority, not a relationship that needs to be completely redefined (ok they're important to each other, but currently what are they? certainly not lovers, and also the friendship, which in reality would be quite compromised, fortunately in BADIK man-woman friendship is indestructible, has to be basically rebuilt)

 

[felianMDR]

I mean if you don't do restaurant, ignore Jade and reject Zoey is it really so much drama? more like harsh time for Sage and you just supportive boyfriend, no?

meanwhile somewhere in JosyMaya route - Josy was trying backstub Maya by talking how she love u etc, and you say L words to Maya. also before this you said to them that your dad think you play with them and you just broke somebodys heart. and if we talk family maybe there some more fun with Tommy Heather situation (didn't remember if it actually possible if you with M&J)

you think "fk that" turn around a corner to Bella and BAM there her husband with some insanity behind there door. What's in the box room. you close your eyes and boom sneak attack from Bianca and Jill who decide to fight for your pp.

oh no, where my Sage, it was so comfortable. Honey let's relax. I find new girl who will like our company for your kink. No bs with old friends etc. You know Tara? no kissing I remember.
