the balancing is really fucked up and heavily skewed towards maya

i usually only do the ep7 hangout with maya because of the tv and esp lynettes diary talk and do everything else with josy and max both of their points and it still choses maya somehow.

It's the Baileys visit, if you get Patrick to have low suspicion it adds Maya RP

If you do fake kiss or real kiss dependent on your path at house entrance, it adds Maya RP.

If you tell her Mom is sweet, it adds Maya RP.

My character did these as a friend who was not into Maya, never did sex scene with her. Even didn't tell her that I'm going to visit my home and have date with a girl.

Spent Early party kissing Sage rather than with Maya.

The only thing I did in favour of Maya was giving her damaged TV, because apparently being on Jill path Or saying Lily is hotter also reduces Josy RP :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: , Other than these everything favoured Josy still had more Maya RP at end of ep 11.

Note that the game takes this into account -- it doesn't compare the amount of RPs directly to determine which girl "wins" but a ratio of points/max points, which for Maya is higher than Josy (74 vs 67 iirc) Meaning, you need to have more points with Maya for her just to be evaluated as "equal" with Josy, never mind actually "winning".

While technically this is true regarding the ratios, I think that if you're on the throuple branch and try to keep things even, there's less opportunity to get those "max" Josy points compared to if you don't keep things balanced or are pursuing Josy in an Other branch. I'm pretty sure I've gotten almost every available Josy point on my balanced throuple save, but still have 85% of Maya and 75% of Josy.

But in any case, RP is only checked as a fall-back if scene count is relatively even. So as long as Josy's count is 2 or more higher than Maya's, RP doesn't matter for checking who you see.

I have unlocked her scenes due to OCD but have always rolled back and kept the money. Madam is definitely not worth a penny. Wonder if there will be some content with meeting her outside the club that will require me to replay that? That would be a major downer. :poop:

I managed to get over my OCD for Madame, she is worth not being seem. Is it annoying that there are big gaps in the scenes and even a 2D art missing? Very much so, but I get over that feeling when I remember what is waiting for me on the other side.

I will always remember two feelings from this game, the warm feeling I got from Quinn's 'time to rise' sex scene and the disappointment I got when I went for the reward for the very first time.

To be fair it also doesn't expect a draw, I'm still not entirely sure if it's possible as the games not coded that way, but in the case of one it defaults to Josy.

Yeah, the ratio calculation isn't rounded so it'll go out to decimal places when doing that check. Pretty sure an exact tie could only mathematically happen with 0% or 100% RP for both. :KEK:

Yeah the fact it doesn't look for one told me it's unlikely/impossible, but you never know with maths really and I can't be arsed looking at all the possibilities

This could predict MC's head being lopped of guillotine style :devilish:

I think of main characters only Quinn is literally constantly walking towards her own demise from start to ending. She went ballistic in the last episode.
She can't go back, she is NEVER going back from that (literally time to rise people), she literally went and became the rat Buddy always called her, this is basically her signing her own death certificate.

Is an others Maya playthrough possible? I know if youre following the others path there's quite a lot of opportunites to flirt with Josy and tell her that you still have feelings for her but i'm undure if there's an equivalent Maya version.

No, but it seems pretty likely that the relationship won't hold. They've tried multiple times to become better, with no result yet. I don't know if there will a solo Maya path though, it's more likely to get a solo Maya path through the throuple.

My impression is probably biased, but in my run the function only broke the tie at something like 4th decimal point when comparing the point ratios, and i wasn't even really consciously trying to balance the time between the girls, just went with what felt "right" at the given moment, for a neutral MC. So... yeah, i don't feel like balancing them was really that hard. :sneaky:
