Sage/Jill path...

[Blows]

I played through the game a couple of times, and went down the sage path both times and i feel that sage is the way the MC ends up with Jill ,as sage is a senior and moving on I'm not sure what grade Jill is, I assume not a senior? , I can not see the MC and sage having a long lasting relationship ,however i think sage will convince the MC and Jill that they will be great for each other, As Jill has feelings and cares deeply for the MC but does not like how he currently acting.. just a guess, I look forward to the next few chapters and see how this all unfolds

If I remember correctly, Jill mentions that she's a junior.

The MC on a Jill path has already met Jill's true inner circle of friends which included those who are 10 years older than him. Thus a relationship with Jill is free from the need of a B&R connection. The point of concern here is how the MC will stay connected to Sage. Since she is an Economics Major. And may start a career straight after college. And the MC has only met Sage's B&R friends.

Ep 7 suggests Jill is a junior. During the Tybalt presentation.

Not really a concern in a game where you can hook up to a 40+ y/o woman... by comparison, a relationship with a senior is easy peasy.

About Jill... don't remember exactly, but she is in the Rusty flashbacks, so she's probably finishing soon as well. Maybe 1 year behind Sage (is that "junior?")

But this discussion is about the situation where the MC had dated Jill and Sage. And thus has chosen to avoid: Bella/Cathy/Jade/Nicole etc.

I highly doubt that Sage is/will be a conduct to Jill. How the relationships end up, no one knows. But I would think that the chosen girl will be static.

I'm pretty sure Jill tells Josy she's a Junior when they meet for the first time in Econ class as well as the other time mentioned above.

Either way, I agree with others that Sage won't be foisting the MC off on Jill. As far as I recall, Sage and Jill barely even run in the same circles since Sage actively avoids using her family's financial status or clout. I don't recall anything off the top of my head that suggests they are friends, or have anything more than a superficial awareness of one another.

As for Sage and the MC staying together, it isn't the ideal situation, but it's not a particularly difficult one either. I expect Sage will have the option to start a career straight out of college, though it is possible she could stay on at B&R for another year or two to pick up a Master's degree. Even if she doesn't, it's hardly a death knell for romance with the MC. The most straightforward solution would be for the MC to simply transfer to a University near wherever she finds work. Another, no less workable, situation would be for the MC to visit or live with her during the generous amount of time off Universities provide their students. Even setting aside the two to three months of summer break (when the MC may be working or interning somewhere), there are multiple week long breaks, usually another month at Christmas, and if the MC can plan his class schedule correctly, plenty of opportunities for long weekend rendezvous. Even without in-person contact, today's technology makes staying connected easier than ever.

Ultimately, if they are committed to one another and are willing to accept some distance related inconvenience, there's no reason they couldn't stay happily together until the MC graduates.

Plus I don't think she's mentioned anything about moving away... she could still work in the same city, and live in the same city (her family IS there, after all), so again, it would be like the Bella situation (without all the extra-complications)... which was my point, even though I probably worded it poorly =P

Just so.

You say you cannot see MC and Sage have a long lasting relationship since she's at her last year in B&R, what makes you think the game will go beyond the first year?

Also Sage and Jill are mutually exclusive though, if you go for Sage, or even choose Sage over Jill in a key moment you miss out on the Jill route.

Jill explicitly tells Josy when they met that she's a Junior (3rd year student).

The fact that Sage graduates by the end of the school year shouldn't have an effect in their relationship if they have one. Given her family influence and networks almost surely she will end getting a cozy job in town, so the MC and her will still be able to see each other regularly (possibly she will rent/buy her own home and the MC can even live there with her until he graduates) I honestly don't see any issues between them because of this (there could be other issues, but this one is minor in my opinion)

I see Sage (if interested in the MC) suggesting him Jill (or any other MG for that matter) extremely unlikely.

At the current pace of the game (by the end of S2 we're starting the 7th week of the semester), and with approximately between 15-20 Eps planned, almost surely the full game will cover only the MC Freshman year, and that's it.

Sage has expressed how reluctant she is to tap into her family's assistance, though. I feel like she would rather do it all on her own if she can, only turning to her family if she winds up needing a back up plan.

As far as her relationship with MC, she's surely into it if he is, but she's exhibited a level of maturity in knowing what she wants from MC from the beginning; making it clear from before the relationship started she was just looking for fun, and touching base with where she stands on things when MC asks for more. She's into him, but MC is the one pushing for the relationship. Sage even calls him out for playing mind games if you pursue Sage route and then later break things off to go the Jill route.

With the maturity she exhibits in the relationship, her study habits, balancing her life with the HOTs, etc, I feel like she'll pursue whatever career looks best for her future and, while she'd certainly be open to continuing a relationship with MC, she's forward focused on her life right now. MC is welcome to come along for the ride, and she'll likely always have a spot in her heart for him, but I don't think she'd settle for a cozy job in town just to stay nearby. This is apparently a small college town, with her economics degree Sage is more likely to be drawn somewhere bigger in the near future.

I think she's going to love the last few months of her senior year with MC, then hold him as a pleasant memory until/unless they meet up again years down the road.

It's been about 15 times that I've made a whole path to episode 8.
I was playing a neutral game with Maya, Josy and Jill and I had refused Sage's advances throughout the previous episodes and at episode 7 at the hot party she still wants to sleep with MC.
Sage is really persistent, do we tell her yes or no?
If it's to tell her one episode later that MC wants to break up it's still a shame, isn't it? plus she gives me a 2 out of 5 after I slept with her. lol

She only gives you 2 out of 5 if you slept with Lily.

Yes Camila and Riona plus Lily lol and after MC made love to Sage, what a lady-killer this boy is !! ha ha ha

Camilla and riona don't matter, its only Lily where she gives you that score.

Yes it makes me think that I never got 4/5 or 5/5. I have a chick path, where I have 3/5 and actually MC only makes love to Sage. It's strange that Lily is important and not Camila and Riona... especially since in real life if you've already had 2 orgasms you last longer the third time, for a man of course!
Yes we have 2/5 in the garden and 3/5 if we continue in the room with Sage.
