Jason Epsiode 9 Thoughts

Yesterday I played whatever I could of episode 9 on Jason's route and finished watching the rest on youtube, so I wanna share my thoughts (generally speaking tho, I actually enjoyed the episode! it was honestly refreshing after.... everything, lol)

beware of spoilers under the cut <3

Okay, this was quite surprising for me. From what I had spoiled myself already I could tell that I was going to like some things about the episode, but I was not expecting to feel overall so positive about it!

From the beginning, I personally really liked all the tidbits of the common route. I liked seeing Tasha and Zahra play cards (seeing their relationship and how close and friendly they seem, what they like, etc), and I also liked the time spent with the inters, they were fun and I generally enjoy seeing the MC interact with other characters. I did miss some more interaction with the other routes, I chose Thomas to work with and honestly it felt like he was barely even there :/ it would have been fun to see him more with the interns and talk about the project he was working on. I don't know, I like this type of "filler" stuff that tells you about the characters and how they act and interact with other people and in different situations, it makes them feel more 3d and real and I fell like this is something the game lacks a LOT. It's nice that we are very focused on our route from the get go cause we get many moments with them, but at the same time it makes the experience very isolating and you dont get to know anyone much besides your route (you also have way less chances to get affinity with other characters, which bothers me honestly, I don't like feeling "locked" with the LI i chose). It gets boring for me but I understand that's just preference and that many people prefer this, so I appreciated all the common route moments we had this episode.

Now, Jason.

God, I absolutely loved it, the more I think about it the more I like it. I liked getting to know more about him, I liked the vulnerable moments, the looks to the side, the sad face, the smidge of angst. The special scene was cute, he looked so soft and kind while keeping that playful air. I wish they had some more banter and more jokes but I liked how they interacted in this episode and how it seemed llike 2 actual adults subtly flirting and connecting. He was very charming here.

HOWEVER, I need to be honest and mentioned all the stuff I didn't like at all.

First of all, it really bothers me that in the spanish version the characters don't seem to have a defined speech style at all. The way Jason speaks sometimes feels SO weird and it doesn't fit him at all. It takes me out so much to hear him speak like that.

Then the writing is... ugh. It feels like it has not been proof read at all, so many repetitiveness? It takes me out of the story a lot and honestly, it feels poor quality and that it has little care put into it

And it really bothers me how they repeated AGAIN the whole "i have never seen him smiled genuinely like this" GIRL YOU DID ????? ON EPISODE 7 ????? YOU SAID THE SAME THING THEN ????? is anyone editing these dialogues be honest with me beemoov

Lastly, my biggest enemy this game: Ysaline

I really, REALLY, don't like her. It bothers me how utterly dramatic she is with the whole "deal with the devil" bullshit (and the amount of times this sentence has been repeated is so obnoxious, we GET IT, be original ffs). Specially cause what the actual fuck has this man done for you to antagonize him and judge him so much? 5 random people that you knew for 2 days told you he was bad and you ran with it, girl have some actual thoughts of your own and stop judging people you know shit about.

Because I am seriously asking, what has Jason done to be "THE DEVIL"? Work hard? Cause that's all I have seen.

(And where did that episode 5 stuff with the "You owe me a favor now" go ???? did everyone forget about this ???? this "deal with the devil" bullshit again ???? I was expecting this to be a relevant line but we are going on episode 10 and I only hear crickets, it has't even been mentionned I really hate how utterly disconnected the episodes feel and how we have literally no plot)

And god Ysaline gave me so much second hand embarassment when she kept accusing him og using Tasha to spy on Devenementiel ????? GIRL? First of all, you are the new hire of a 7 people company, what the fuck would your 16 year old sister have ???? Devenementiel doesnt even have confidential information why would Jason even CARE. This was EMBARASSING.

Also, Jason telling her that he motivated Tasha by telling her that Ysa would be better ?????? Bro what makes you think that, all you have seen of this woman is her being an absoute mess, doing the most stupid and ridicuous bullshit, NOT WORKING (miss girl was out strolling around the city looking for apartments during work hours, she barely even worked that day), and not being able to even organize a damn birthday party. What about this woman is capable or competent? Aren't you supposed to hate incompetent people? hm?

I really mean this but these two have so little chemistry that is DRY as a desert I don't understand what Jason could see in her cause everything we know about the character would point to him disliking her. In his route what would make sense is for Ysalinne to be super hard working person, someone competitive and very focused on her work that takes her professional life seriously. THAT is someone that I can see Jason liking and somewhat admiring and wanting by his side.

Anyway, tldr: I liked this episode, I hope we get more like this, I hope Ysaline grows the fuck up and I hope we have more fun banter and jokes and flirting instead of creepyness <3

Thoughts on MCLNG Episode 9

this episode did cost me 2759AP without using any jokers (i couldn’t wait until tomorrow when i’ll could have get a super deal, nevermind🥲), now i’m broke lol

reminder: it’s just MY opinion

it was a quite long episode, Devon’s brothers are really sweet and smart too!! but what i had to do with my OWN sister for a MAN (Jason) it was well… cruel. i felt so sorry for her. to be honest, i can’t get along with kids or teenagers in real life either, even with my own sister (we have an 11 year age gap so i guess it’s understandable), but it was too harsh for me too. they could have add another option which could’ve been more kind. (btw what was that one sentence with the word “devil” in it?? he’s just our rival, we’re not in hell omg ysa don’t be so dramatic. plus we all know you would (and eventually will) f. with him💀)

anyways, the story was pretty good (it was time, after the previous one🧍🏻‍♀️), but the things with Jason seems a bit rushed, again, please beemoov i’m sure there’s a lot of people who love slow burn stories (hi, it’s me), we know, you have to fit in a certain number of chapters blah blah blah (we couldn’t care less), but please for the love of god SLOW DOWN. don’t get me wrong, i loved when Jason finally opened up to us and i almost cried too, because of his backstory (i’m a disaster) but, i mean he’s still a stranger, even if you know someone since decades, they still can contain surprises, or even a disappointment. but overall i liked the episode and the illustration (even if i’ll have to edit it, cuz their faces killing me, like where are we even looking bro😭the man is in front of us, are you blind)

~~~

me with Jason💙

meanwhile with Thomas💀

i don’t even know how did we get this low but here we are lol

~~~

anyways, new outfit cuz i got bored of the old one

stay safe guys ≽^•⩊•^≼

MCL NG EP 5 edit (pt 1)

So this episode was interesting. I kind of prefer this short type of episode. I got to see some other sides of Jason and learn some stuff about him.

Here's some HC:

Officially Elizabeth hates Amanda. When she saw her reaction to accepting the event she just wanted to do bad bad stuff ;).

She did chose to do the project alone because everyone seemed busy anyway with they own stuff but as we know her ideas alone were rejected.

Jason helping her made her question his intention and maybe think that he has something for her, which he probably does.

About her 9th birthday: she doesn't remember much because she had really bad memory issues and barely remembers what happened when she was 9. She only remembers her parents spoiling her every year.

When she heard about Jason's father she tried to comfort him but that only made the situation even more awkward, but I bet he appreciated the gesture.

Elizabeth chosed to go to the restaurant with some of her family members including her cousins (Alex and Caleb) with whom she took photos and even sent one to Jason with the message "Everything went as planned"

Here's the outfit:

Some notes about the outfit: I still don't like how it looks but I try to use as much from the outfits given by beemoov so yeah, I have to settle with this. But at least it looked good in the illustration.

MCL NG EP 9 Amanda guide!!

A little bit late, but it's an important holiday here where I live, so please forgive me. And I also didn't get the Taki costume this time, but I promise that everything else is here! Enjoy!

During the episode, pick the black outfit.

First, when Devon makes the announcement about the interns - "I agree, I think so too." Gives you a +5 with Amanda, but -5 with Roy and Thomas.

"That's also why you love us!" - +5 with Amanda, Devon and Elenda, -5 with Brune

When talking to Amanda in the cafeteria - "It's possible! In my opinion, we're gonna have a lot of fun!"

First red choice, when talking to mom and Tasha - "If I call Devon now, I think it might be possible."

When the teenagers are introducing themselves - "This time, I started clapping". +5 with Amanda, Elenda and Devon, -5 with Brune.

"With pleasure!" - Didn't affect any LoMs

Then we get our second red choice, where of course, you have to go with Amanda.

For the yellow choices with the interns I picked "Yes, I followed this idea too." and "Of course not all of them are possible to use". I'm not sure if those choices really matter, but I've decided to write them out just in case.

Talking to Amanda after brainstorming with interns - "I thought you would actually be into marriage."

For the third red choice in our room - "Yeah, right? I must admit, I don't have guests very often."
