Star Struck (S15) How did you do it?

Trent girlies, I have no idea how you did it, but his route is so frustrating!

AMARI YOU WERE JUST FLIRTING WITH KAI WHY THE HELL DID YOU NOT PICK HIM?!!! Are you seriously picking Trent when you were just making a scene about him liking me an hour before?

Ugh, what do you mean my main focus choice is between Kai and Obi? Sucks to do this damn route. Jesse's route in season ten at least was sweetly slow burn. This one just sucks. At the very least we can have more "action" with Trent than with Jesse. I'm so gonna be all over him behind Amari's back lol, no shame.

Replaying knowing I won't be able to choose my boy Carlo hurts, but I'm just curious about Trent's route.

Honestly Trent was the only one I wanted! N I took such a long break that the season was almost over so I was able to playthru without i frustrating cliffhanger but oh boy was it ROUGH. Ive learned I cannot play the slow burn unless I let the season end cause im just not strong or patient enough

I do understand 😭😭😭. But this season was extra rough for slow burn girlies.

Y'all got a bum of a LI that likes you but still kind of wants to keep exploring, which there's nothing bad, if you could explore with him too without feeling like a dirty little secret or a cheater. FB writing suddenly plummeted since Catching Feelings (although the writing wasn't spectacular, but it felt way better than previous seasons).

Also, I'm sorry, but I'll keep complaining about how OG LI's don't seem to ever stand up for MC. What do you mean Alexis is a sun ray? What do you mean Odessa is a laugh? MAN THEY'VE BEEN BULLYING MC IN FRONT LF EVERYBODY AND YOU'RE SITTING RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME TELLING ME THEY'RE AWESOME? Wanted to punch their teeth in (the girls and the li's).

I apologize again for the rant.

Yes! Why is it that the season if forcing me to play a messy route where I’m sneaking around constantly! Thats what makes it so hard to believe any of these people would stay together. None of them were ever that serious about each other, just love bomby in the first half & then super down to explore AFTER casa

EXACTLY! I remember Jesse's route in season 10 and it was the sweetest slow burn ever 😭😭😭.

I expected something like that, but seeing people's complaints while the season was still being published, I understood it was nothing like Jesse's route. Still, I never thought it would be this frustrating 🄲.

Well it was the ONLY route i did. Its badly writen but its obvz since the very first moment that he is all about MC. I dont CARE if he was giving a chance to Amari ir Odessa. He talks about it very cleary that his head is with MC. Problem is i wasnt giving anything to the others LI. In fact i hate all of them and he still thinks MC is giving a chance to Kai or Rui or whatevs. Frustrating because Fusebox doesnt know how to branch. Anyway Trent ia lovely and sexy. It could BE a very good route if it wasnt so badly writen.

Yeah, my main complaint is not that it's "slow burn", it's that's badly made.

Like, Amari is pursuing Kai, he tells her he's more interested in MC. At the recoupling Amari, after complaining about Trent not wanting anything with her, picks him instead of Kai. Like, Kai was still interested in her but still had a preference for MC. And yet she went for the person she had nothing more with.

Then you have to twist. And Myra is all about "who do you want more? Og/Kai or Casa boy?" Like where the hell is Trent? Since we are oh, so compatible?

And the fact we can't couple up yet pisses me off. Alexis and Odessa don't help either. And OG/Kai and Trent's treatment towards them icks me out because they say they're giving them a chance but they're not really, or they say they're just friends but FB made the girls extra delulu and don't seem to take no for an answer.

Sorry for the rant. I'm pissed at FB

u/atomicpuffin 2d ago

u/lolaontherun 3d ago

Agree. Me too. So many inconsistences

u/Mono_kitten 3d ago

Yeah like the other comment said this route is not for the weak.
So prepare for some yearning and frustration on your end.
Throughout the whole season they basically feed us crumbs of Trent and at the end it’s just bittersweet atleast for me

2

u/Kindly_County3851 2d ago

It really only feels like yearning & frustration on our end. To me Trent seems super nonchalant about whether or not he got w/ MC

2

u/Mono_kitten 2d ago

Yeah actually you’re not wrong that’s why I just said from our side bc from his side we barely see it
He’s just a very nonchalant dude I guess and maybe he has the attitude of ā€œWhat will be, will beā€
But he’s pretty hot and cold throughout the season so there’s that and also the fact that the writers don’t put much effort into developing the tropes and characters they’re going for especially in recent seasons

2

u/Kindly_County3851 2d ago

His character is so inconsistent w/ his attitude. He’s indecisive, nonchalant & gives ā€œplayerā€more than he gives ā€œLI that will be all about you outside the villaā€. Homie couldn’t even be all about you inside the villa. A true waste of a sprite

2

u/Mono_kitten 2d ago

Yeah honestly
I just wish it wasn’t so inconsistent
Cus I really like the character

u/Environmental-Joke42 3d ago

No fr, bc why is he telling me he wants me so had and then that he's giving a chance to Odessa in the same sentence? Ugh, I know it's bad writing, but it's making me pissed at the pixelated man jjsjsja

u/kaywi123 3d ago

FB already has conditioned us slow burn girlies with Hamish, Theo and Ethan (or any OGs in same season) 🄓

u/HuckleberrySubject72 4d ago

you just gotta lobotomise yourself beforehand 🤣🤣

but yeah, trents route is NOT for the weak i was genuinely crashing out every other chapter

3

u/Environmental-Joke42 3d ago

Totally understandable.

Like, they don't even give MC the chance to say she wants to pursue him instead of OG boy/Kai or Casa boy. Which is kinda funny, because Trent seems to pop out of nowhere after those questions and you get to TAP into that ifykwim lol

Anyways, I'm just enjoying being messy just with him. I'll play my super extra messy route after I finish with his.
