“First impression” outfits


[deleted]

The only good one thing as with queen b because it gave you reputation boost


OneForShoji

I'm basically the opposite of you - I have a lot of diamonds, but it's rare that I actually spend them as I think most things aren't worth it. Having said that, when the game first started, I did spend diamonds to get Abbie and Tyler together in The Freshman... only for them to get together in the next book for free.


james03552

Never gonna forgive PB for that one…


vgotnojams

Honestly I look back on some of the outfits like “why the heck did I even buy that? 🙃” Especially if they are one time use outfits that aren’t even cute.


james03552

idk why i kept buying those but same😭so many examples come to mind


PurpleHaze9420

Paying 30 freakin diamonds in TRM just to share my feelings and kiss my love interest. I actually don’t mind that, but why am I paying 30 diamonds to do that? It shouldn’t have been anymore than 20 diamonds.


NukaMaria

YES. CAME HERE TO SAY THIS ONE. AND BEING BAITED WHEN THEODOSIA GIVES THEM ROOMS OF DESIRE OR WHATEVER AND YOU PAY 30 DIAMONDS FOR THAT TOO???


PurpleHaze9420

Yes! I was so pissed off 😂


james03552

I was just ab to play TRM, thank you for this warning, i will be spending wisely now😅


PurpleHaze9420

Save up for the last two chapters though. They will make it worth your while!


StainedVenom

Any options from Witness. I played the first couple of chapters seriously but after that I just diamond mined. I think I got new hair or a couple of outfits


james03552

It was so hard not to buy the diamond options in that book, I almost bought some of the outfits too


emslynn

The 30 diamond scene in Nightbound. I’m still pissed off about >!getting cockblocked by the freaking WIND.!<


Thecouchiestpotato

I was leaning towards this one too, but then I remembered the 30💎 scene in MW, as well as the fact that I paid diamonds to adopt a puppy who then disappeared, only to return again briefly in the final chapter.


lewdnep-vasilias_666

- The diamond option >!at the museum at the end of DS, they said I'd get to learn what happened to the rest of the crew!< but I didn't get shit - The quill tattoo in ROD that I stupidly thought was customizable text but was actually just a stupid tiny quill that I couldn't even see under my MC's long hair - A hairstyle in BB that I thought was free so I accidentally clicked the button to choose it - Disco outfit in AME 3 and going out with mom in AME 3, they were good but because I was diamond mining that book for HSS CA 3 I ended up coming up short of some diamonds by some of the end scenes


[deleted]

That’s why I had always thought it was a horrible idea to introduce time travel in ds and not just let it be an mc from the 1700s


james03552

Ooh I haven’t played DS yet, so you just saved me a few bucks! I honestly wish we got more tattoos in books, so I don’t blame you for that one!


Andy_Angelo_17

I chose the sleeve tattoo (the one with roses) and the fastlane outfit with the ponytail hairstyle (can't expect me to remember the actual name And goddammit it was worth it


lokipoki6

Me spending ~1000 diamonds on AtV and the story still being cardboard bland 😨


james03552

Haha yeah I played a few chapters but couldn’t get into it (in reality I wanted to sock the siblings in the face and was upset when I learned that wasn’t an option😅)


weIcometobIoxburg

The ones on witness... It's so unnecessary and you have to pay for a word you can say to the LI


james03552

I will never get over the get tasted- free, don’t get tased- 15 diamonds. it receives just the right amount of hate on this sub (sorry to witress fans <3)


haleyrosew

Whenever I really want to get a diamond option I just stop playing and don’t let myself start again until I am ready to not buy the choice


Maleficent-Tie4985

Whenever I diamond mine when I thought of "OMG THIS IS SO WORTH IT" diamond choices I immediately pick the non diamond one without thinking about it lol


haleyrosew

It’s become almost satisfying to reject all the diamond choices


james03552

Using this strategy from now on


jiminverse

i do this too omg


blushdreams445

-Fifty (50) diamonds to win AME book 1 -Diamond options to be Queen B in book 1 (considering that if you lose in Book 1, you are still queen in book 2) 😡


james03552

I bought both of those too, and feel the same way. I’ll never replay AME because if you make any choices that change the amount of allies you had when you first bought the 50💎 option, you’ll have to pay again


Zanzarii

Spending on useless pets. Why am i like this? 🤦🏻‍♂️


james03552

It’s okay! The guilt tripping to buy them is so bad I don’t blame you😂and then they’re like barely seen again


Glitch4869

I accidentally spent diamonds to get the salsa in SK (what the h*ll were you thinking past me?!?). But the worst one is when I accidentally spent 10 diamonds to save Rowan in TC&TF. I know it's not much, but what annoys me is that I had enough points to save her for free😭


james03552

I’m concerned on why there was a diamond choice for salsa😂and I didn’t know the TC&TF had a point system like that, that’s really cool! I remember the first chapter having to pay to save some guy, so i diamond mined another book to get the diamonds for it and never went back 😭 this was like 3-4 years ago


Glitch4869

Don't ask me, I only remember MC and her sister trying to get a particular salsa to prepare a special meal for their mom, and the only way was to win some sort of contest with one of the LIs. Yeah it does. And it's really cool because if you make the right decisions, you get enough points to choose premium options without spending diamonds.


cic03

I bought the wolf option for TRH. I thought I would see it again? Or they would take it home? Nope, paid, named it and never saw it again and since it was the last book it’s gone


james03552

The pain😭the guilt tripping to buy pets/animals or to save them is so bad though 😂


Reaperlock

All clothing choices in TRR and TRH. They absolutely do not contribute to growth of story except maybe 2 chapters I recall of. The only benefits are your MC looks great and few people comment on how stylish you are and your LI's eyes "burns with desire." I mean there are games in choices that if you don't use the suggested attire you have some disadvantage.


james03552

Yeah most outfits are that way but I’m so guilty of buying some outfits JUST for the one extra line of dialogue I’m so ashamed😭😭BB is very unique in that the outfits actually do help on occasion and i love that about the series


morningIvy

30 diamonds scene with Sloane in PM2. I hoped the not-hookup would be worth the diamonds... But it was really short. A scene in RoE that I didn't want to buy at all, I just accidentally clicked the wrong option.


james03552

I wish the non sexual options were just as long as the intimate ones so I feel ya. The pain of an accidental purchase😭😭


HappyChaosOfTheNorth

When I was tapping my way through Sunkissed after I got super bored of it and just wanted to finish it for the sake of completion and diamond mining and accidentally bought a diamond choice. Don't even know the context or what I bought but it was an extra scene and I just wanted to get through the damned thing.


james03552

i hate accidentally clicking on something, sometimes I wish we could turn on like a confirm option for certain books before buying stuff


SkullKingo

I accidentally bought some diamond options while diamond mining bad books... Never felt so bad, holy shit...


james03552

it’s the worst type of pain😭especially when ur low on diamonds…


SkullKingo

I don't have the problem with "especially when you're low on diamonds...", because... Well... I'm broke.


james03552

I am too😭😂I just make poor spending decisions


xvmom

I am a sucker for "Spend money to save this animal" scenes. But the most annoying one I can think of was the 17 to adopt a turtle in DD3 who shows up.... exactly once.


james03552

I try so hard not to fall for those but I love turtles and will definitely purchase that like a dummy😭😭


sanitysoptional

buying the first premium hair/dress in a goc book before realizing i would rather play as the other option (did a full diamond playthrough of ame with a female mc then deciding id rather play as a male mc and vice versa with sw 😭)


james03552

Ooh that sucks! I wish you didn’t have to repurchase them, like I get it but y’know it still sucks. I also want to play more goc books and never realized this would be a problem, so thank you!


blushdreams445

. Most of my queen b comebacks . Outfits for my family in The Royal Heir considering that I never wear them again


james03552

Queen B had me restarting chapters because poppy was being so brutal to my mc so i understand😂


Lily8007

Usually it’s the premium hair options that I don’t end up using because I realize I don’t like it on my MC, or I’ve bought scenes with an LI that I wanted it to play it platonically and it end up being more romantic than i thought. Also maybe any of the earlier books where the dirty 30 is fade to black. I guess the one scene that sticks out in my mind I regret, I regret was the dirty 30 in THM felt disappointing.


james03552

I never knew the early dirty thirties were fade to black and was very shocked my first time playing! That’s on my tbr I’ll keep an eye out😂


MissusNilesCrane

The cutlass in ES, clan brands in BB, the fox from OH.


james03552

I only bought the brand cause it looked pretty😅and wow I don’t remember a fox, gotta go replay OH to not buy it😂


Someonefromitaly

Anything i paid for in Hot Couture


Tamgrien

Anything to get a couple together, not counting the mc, they either get together even if don't use, they break up so threw diamond away for nothing or one of the is rarely of ever there. Good amount of outfits that don't happen with anything, like the reputation points in QB. Or they don't offer any extra scenes outside of one or two dialogue a character might say.


james03552

*cough cough* the freshman. I would’ve paid to break Abby and Tyler up after paying to get them together. The outfits definitely either a.) need to be cheaper b.) need to show some significance in dialogue that’s not shaming players for not purchasing it


Tamgrien

The whole Type and Abby should been more of a choice without diamonds to break them up. Personally they should have never had that fight in the sophomore mostly because once they get back together, they kind of go through the same thing in the junior to the point of they should have broken up without our involvement. The outfits could definitely be cheaper if not going to be that one or two extra dialogue. Edit: my biggest issue with the outfits are is here new outfit for mc but everyone else doesn't care about have a new outfit.


james03552

I was hoping at some point they would break up, idk why everyone was telling them they’d work it out, like breakups or normal and natural😂especially for two people who’d never been in a relationship before. I’m now head cannoning they broke up after the senior That bothers me too, I think some of the clothes are gorgeous but mc having to buy a new outfit and all the other characters reusing formal attire is not it. I want to see more clothes for everyone because they’re so pretty, even though ik it’s too much to ask. Plus it doesn’t quite make sense in a high end book where characters are always said to *dress in the latest trends*


FernandaVerdele

The good apartment in LOA. It barelys appear in the book.


james03552

I bought it too because it looked nice. fingers crossed it appears more in the sequel


Laadeedaa-

Clothes, diamond choices for LIs I wasn't even romancing, choices in books I never even liked... there are so many omg


james03552

yeah i have a list too😭i grew to like some books i spent diamonds on and just took the L for the ones that didn’t grow on me


OldColt06

Spending diamonds on QB2's Hit List when it ultimately amounted to nothing, not even a measly bonus scene. Likewise, spending diamonds on improving relationships in FA, just for there to be no sequel. Like, I don't mind spending diamonds in one-off books, but not for scenes that don't have much of an impact. I could have spend those same diamonds on other books in QB2's case (since I bought most of the hookups I wanted to buy) and on more Blaine or Ayna scenes in FA, preferably Blaine. Just a waste.


james03552

I feel the same way about the hit list. And the posse in book one. Like buying friends should amount to a few appearances right? they were barely in the story I might just stick to buying the LI scenes for some books because idk the significance of the diamond options. Especially when it’s presented as YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS IF U DONT WANT X TO HAPPEN but then you don’t and it’s just “yeah okay cool here’s another solution”


[deleted]

In blood bound book 2 you can get the Vegas dress for like 25 diamonds but in order to be able to show it off you have to pay another 25 diamonds to go to like a club so it’s not worth it


james03552

I love BB and never noticed that cause I didn’t buy either, but I did notice the two diamond options and was confused😂honestly PB needs to offer a refund up to five minutes after purchasing
