This is probably the best VN I have played. If you tell me you only played this game because of the story I will believe you 100%.
Replaying it right now on a DIK path (was a chick the first time), and while the core of the story remains the same, every interaction is different, the way DPC connects the dots is crazy good. Choices matters.This is probably the best VN I have played. If you tell me you only played this game because of the story I will believe you 100%.
I used to be very anti VN; in my naivete I thought how boring, just a bunch of clicking and no gameplay. It wasn't until I started playing first City of Broken Dreamers, Our Red String and this game that I changed my mind. I still don't have a lot experience compared to some of you, so I don't know if these are outliers or not, but I think they strike the right balance of not being too verbose, showing vs. describing (important in a visual narrative), and small but engaging minigames to entertain people like me without turning off more traditional VN enthusiast (be what that may). Branching storylines is also important to me, but I think I might be interested in more linear storytelling. Anyways, tl;dr now a convert thanks partially to this game.Replaying it right now on a DIK path (was a chick the first time), and while the core of the story remains the same, every interaction is different, the way DPC connects the dots is crazy good.

Add the music placement, and renders like this, adds a whole different level to the story...
There's a lot more than that worth playing.I used to be very anti VN; in my naivete I thought how boring, just a bunch of clicking and no gameplay.

considering that we enter the do post big decision I would say that it is not so unlikely that the chosen LI will have two scenes in the chapter...Do you guys think we wont get a lewd scene with sage in her halloween in ep 9. Since the preview showed a lewd scene with her before the party
Sally and MagnarThe pregnancy has nothing to do with Fuckface, you can do a celibate playthrough and the test still comes up.
It could be a flashback to Lynette or even Bella, although I hope not because the voiceover made it seem contemporary to the story.
I see a lot of people suggesting Ashley because of the Derek Anthony triangle. But Ashley didn't sleep with Derek before getting with Anthony and the test still comes up if you don't get Ashley and Derek back together.
Other candidates are Arieth for the Alphas/DIKs drama, Heather for the Tommy drama or Elena for wholesome story with John Boy.
considering how overrated the mini twists at the end of the chapter usually are (oh my god!!! we got Troy and Chad!!! who knows what will happen in the next chapter!!! Nothing or almost nothing) even in my opinion it remains likely to be a flashbackThe pregnancy has nothing to do with Fuckface, you can do a celibate playthrough and the test still comes up.

I agree that Ashley is the most likely, and if she's pregnant it would explain the whole "It's complicated" reason for her to not get back together with Derek right away.I don't think Arieth will ever be more than a joke to deserve a plot like that in the game. Sally and Heather for me sound so random. My money is on Ashley because of the Antony-Derek triangle.
Other thing i think is possible is one of the HOTs in Quinn's restaurant (Sarah, Melaine, Rio or Camila) be pregnant and the father is Burker or others "sponsors", which of course will bring problems for these sponsors and Quinn wil have to deal with it.I agree that Ashley is the most likely, and if she's pregnant it would explain the whole "It's complicated" reason for her to not get back together with Derek right away.
Sally and Heather are not random, however. Tommy and Heather recently argued, and her period was one of the points brought up (and she bit his head off). Sally is having trouble with Magnar. This is most evident when in the midst of a major dorm party Mag is burying himself in books asking to be left alone, and Sally is out partying. She might have said something to him at one point, like a simple "Hey, I'm late". Being paranoid about his girl being knocked up would absolutely stress the boy out of a party mood.
Was this actually in BaDik? Where, whose test was this?
In the end of ep. 8. In every routes possible.Was this actually in BaDik? Where, whose test was this?
But no one knows regarding what girl or anything more specific other than one of the LIs MC came inside of had a positive pregnancy test?In the end of ep. 8. In every routes possible.
it is not a matter of boring, but of "harmless"I'd like that but I'm not sure that their relationship is major enough (compared to Elena and JB for example) for the casual player to care that Sally is pregnant. Plus it would remove the option of Sally as a sidegirl on the others path which would be disappointing.
I'm not saying it won't be a flashback would be annoying if it is.
I would say that we should use simple deduction and common sense to apprehend who is knocked up.I agree that Ashley is the most likely, and if she's pregnant it would explain the whole "It's complicated" reason for her to not get back together with Derek right away.
