I don't like the idea of being locked out of certain girls path this early in the game, especially when you know those said girls have feelings for Mc. It's torture for me, Be with Ashley, and he ignores Jenny romance wise and vice versa. Definitely not your standard harem, someone's getting left out regardless. But to the Dev's credit these girls have strong personalities, it's hard to imagine them all just pro harem, not unless TLG nuke's some of their character traits.
Back at the hotel I thought it sucked that you have to make the choice to either stay with Valery at the hotel to in order to hear her full story or go with Aurora in order to intervene in an important decision that will affect her career. Aurora contemplating on whether or not to do a risqué photoshoot with the Klein creep may come back to haunt her, we know she's uncomfortable with the idea, but feels it could help her career. So Mc not being there as her support system is huge.
On the other hand if you do decide to accompany Aurora then you miss out on Valery’s story with is critical to her character. Clint also doesn't open up to you and reveals he's her father. I would’ve liked if both options were available seeing as how they’re important to each character, but I guess it’s designed for a multi play through regardless, while also showing that MC isn't superman and can’t save everyone.
On a side note the “You won’t fine me” song playing during Val’s story was eerie as hell. Great job by TLG in setting the tone for her story.
