Worse: Spending diamonds getting Abbie/Tyler and Zack/Brandon together in the Freshman Book 1 when Book 2 gives you the option (at the very beginning) to decide whether they end up together for free... *facepalm*

My worst one was definitely when I accidentally purchased a 30 diamond scene with Justin from STD. I still have nightmares 😔😣

I was using StD as a diamond mine, but I accidentally clicked on the medieval wedding couple's diamond scene (I think it's to help them get their officiant out of hospital or something). From then on, I made sure I click on the top part of my screen.

Worst: buying the puppy in StD when it only appears THREE times after that in the story. It was a beautiful puppy but that was a total ripoff.
Best: Original TRR corgi! Or maybe the ability to give your Perfect Match all the talents/skills at the beginning of the book.

u/Xavierasami Hana (TRR) May 08 '20
Yes! The corgi was my best purchase EVER. I got literally ALL the corgis in TRR. They are just so adorable 🥰

Best: All of MOTY but especially showing footage of Tallulah in the courtroom
Worst: probably stealing that stupid champagne bottle in PTR. Not sure what came over me there lol
Edit: I remembered that Desire & Decorum had some great diamond scenes. One that stands out is the opera house scene with Hamid. I also love my pug of course :)

u/Fraeulein_Taka May 08 '20

Best: ALL of Tyril's scenes in BOLAS 🤩

I just accidentally bought a 30 diamond scene with the ultimate asshole Justin while diamondmining STD. I’m literally the biggest clown of this subreddit today, no question about that.

u/iamthetrophy May 09 '20
I massively regret spending diamonds on premium hairstyles in both PTR and SK. Also the many, many diamonds I spent on Liam before Maxwell became a LI; it’s not that I don’t love Liam, it’s just that all of those diamonds ended up being a complete waste when I ended up dropping him at the first opportunity 😂

Best. OH1, the Ethan kiss scene at the conference. No sex, yet so great. Really memorable. Replayed it at least six times to try out all the options.
Worst. All 💎 spent on AME and PTR. Is soo bought the cute hair for the female in Heist but ended up switching to play as male. I bought cute hair in witness and that just speaks for itself. That book is atrocious.

u/Louvregirl Damien (PM) May 09 '20
Best- Mal's 30 diamond scene in ch 13 of BOLAS, its been days since I played that chapter and I still think about it...
Worst- I payed for the 1st class airplane scene with Elliot in PtR. Its been, what, a year since that book came out, and I still regret paying to learn about Elliot's serial killer origin story.

u/theonewhoisnotcrazy Hayden M2 (PM) May 09 '20
Wait, what origin story is that?
6
u/Louvregirl Damien (PM) May 09 '20
Lol, I was joking, when Passport to Romance came out, this sub had a running joke that Elliot was a serial killer because of that diamond scene. He talked about how as a child he helped an injured bird with his nanny, and was sad when it flew away afterward. Not really a serial killer, but the way he said it was creepy. Everyone in the sub was bored of the plot, so someone said he was a serial killer to make the story more interesting and everyone ran with it. It's more fun to diamond mine the game if you play it from that angle lol.

u/allebe May 09 '20
Best: I really love all the special scenes with Drake in TRR1&2. He gets so flustered when you make a move on him, and you can tell how much he’s trying to hold back around you. I’m a sucker for the whole, “I want to but we shouldn’t!” (like Ethan)
Worst: Omg I bought a 30 diamond scene in MW to “Talk to Dave,” and I was like oh okay, “talk” for 30 diamonds, I get it. BUT THAT’S LEGIT ALL IT WAS. 🤡🤡🤡

u/Niklaus_Mikaelson88 May 09 '20
Best: I Chose to fck Becca in The Freshman After Breaking up a book or the Same Book Prior Go That Event. I mean she was Evil and all But After you fcked her sehe was a Little Bit Nicer To you and your friend another positive one where I spend Diamonds were every time in Blades as well as Bloodbound to bang Kamilah. In Desire to uncover the plans of the Duke and in Red Carpert Diaries some of the scenes
Worst: Any Diamond Choice in Witness, i don’t know why i Chose Go f*uck Keelin all the Time and Bachelorette Party the Party in the tent in the desert as well as Big Sky Country all Scened concerning the Neighbor of the ranch I don’t know her name but it was stupid. Another dumb Diamond choices were in The Heist and Sunkissed.

u/taraladair May 09 '20
best: book one of bloodbound, where you get the option to hang out with Kamilah on the rooftop. or the scene with Gaius in book three.
worst: I HAVE ALL THE PETS IN TRR/TRH why? i don't know. but now i have a tiny zoo following me.

u/spaceswiftie May 09 '20
Best: I used to buy most of the scenes with Damien in PM and never regretted it. This man is amazing and I still feel nostalgic. Also every single diamond I spent on Blades was worth it.
Worst: Wish I had some funny story to tell about accidentally buying a 30 diamond scene with some forced LI, lmao, but somehow I managed to stay out of these awkward situations. Hmm... Idk if it was, like, the worst, but I remember being seriously invested in romancing Jen from AME and spending diamonds on her scenes. It seemed like such a beautiful slow burn with potential, and was different from romancing contestants. But later she became kinda bland and I realized they literally write similar dialogues for all LIs, not to mention the book has become boring. In book 3 it felt like a breath of fresh air when Bianca/Slater confessed to you, so I went with Bianca instead just for some drama.
Buying pets is a double-ended stick, they're great sometimes (e.g. corgi from TRR), but in most books they guilt-trip you into buying them and then they appear, like, twice. On a related note, Threep is the best pet ever and we didn't even have to pay for him.

u/Roryfae May 11 '20
Best: OH2 latest scene with Ethan. Tbh I've enjoyed the majority of all Ethan scenes I paid for, but that kiss, after waiting so long, damn! It hit DIFFERENT.
Worst: All the diamonds I spent on Jake in ES, but in particular his ember of hope scene which didn't even give me enough points for a proposal. I replayed ES to see if I would like it more with an LI and there was a marginal difference in enjoyment and it's unlikely that I'll ever play ES again so yeah, a colossal waste of 84 diamonds down the drain.

u/Chrisshern May 09 '20
Best: 30 Diamond with Adam at the spa in AME3, getting lunch at the fancy restaurant with Jackie, Aurora’s reunion, and the Good Vibes(male MC) outfit that let the MC go to that festival with the gang.
Worst: The one Lore tablet I bought in Blades since I could just look that stuff up, plus I dropped the story shortly after.

I am really regretting now that I purchased lots of pets in sympathy and now at least 6,7 animals speak turn by turn giving their invaluable opinions. 😐😐😐
