I let Liam die/"waste away" all the time.

I barely pay him any attention when it comes to texting him/calling him, etc. I don't defend him against Peter, I call him out on the Angela/Hedwig thing, R.I.P. tattoo, etc.

Just how I enjoy the game I guess.

Funnier the more you know about the scene/genre, specifically the top 10 on Patreon's Adult Game rankings.
Hope you all enjoy!

Just played the game... I mean, 4 playthroughs.
This game is something else! The girls are pretty (Angela not so much) and the story is enthralling. It took a pretty dark tone at the last act - totally unexpected!

Liam is great. It opened my eyes to the lack of wingmen/pals in porn games. Also, I felt a great connection to him and was a bit emotional when you first talk with him at his empty apartment.
His best scene was when, at the party, Angela confessed she had chlamydia 3 times and he was supposed to go with her earlier in the club. The look he gave me... HAHAHAHA
Megan is lovely, Melissa is daring (and my fav ending), and the smurf (Rena?) is freaking gorgeous. Leah is fucking crazy and Hedwig is exciting.

The only 2 bad things I can say about the game are the earlier sex scenes (they don't look really good; could get a revision) and that you have to undergo the entire story in another playthrough when focusing on another girl. It could be interesting to auto-skip all the dialogue you've already gone through until a point of decision, if possible.

The fact the dev also created Being a DIK tells a lot about the quality of this game. I'm really glad I've played it!

Ah, and another reason this game rocks: the body proportions. Not a single girl has those enormous balloons on her chest or absurd butts. They're all believable. Serious thumbs up!

I don't write reviews so I'm just going to leave this here. Spoilers and some harsh words ahead.

I really hate the way this game makes you feel extremely sympathetic towards all the main girls, and then punishes you for seeking relationships with them. It was so blatant with its pushiness that I initially thought it's a harem game. I'm fine with this stuff in other games (Fruit of Grisaia has similar theme going on: several girls with some problems, pick one) but this one is structured in such a way that no matter what you pick, you feel like an asshole. The game REALLY wants the protagonist and Megan to get together and it's annoying.
I also couldn't help but notice the constant use of cheap tricks to elicit emotional response from the player: ex cheating, cancer, domestic abuse, toxic relationships etc. Guys, do you know what subtlety is? The writer definitely does not. One dimensional antagonists for days!

Overall, I think it's very overrated.

Also, good luck getting a good ending without a guide.

I can't be bothered playing the same game multiple times, that's just me. However is there a place to view all the possible endings? If no, could someone give a rough conclusion how the endings differ from each other.

Gotta agree with this, unfortunately. I found the main girl, Megan, the least interesting of the bunch, and the game essentially forces you to be with her. Also, why have a sex game that makes you feel bad for having sex?

The turns of the plot are melodramatic, and the last few episodes are essentially you just clicking past dialogue without making any choices just to see the ending.

I share many of the criticisms you make, but not in the intensity

having a happy ending, the only real happy ending is as easy as it is banal (hyper faithful to the LI we are destined for)

but it is true that the rest of the game is full of traps, and some of them are infamous, since they are not related to our choices, indeed they escape any choice we make. but doesn't this actually end up being a safe-conduct for us players? the worst things that happen do not depend on our choices... it could have been worse

for me the only real flaw is that the story makes sense only if you play in a certain way, only if you are interested in both Meghan and Melissa, otherwise it loses almost all sense, and this is a major flaw in a game that would like to offer several endings

I found it really hard to do my one and only Melissa route, because the game throws Megan at you pretty much from the starting gate. I was basically dating them both in that run, and just saved Melissa at the end. It just felt, wrong. Melissa surely has the better story, coming from the broken home and whatnot, but with how the plot branches out where everything changes when you meet Megan, it made it almost impossible for me NOT to choose her.

It puts on you this "tunnel vision" where all the things you do in the game rotate around Megan's career. It's pretty hard to shut her out.

I never did a Rena run, and don't want to. I just watched her ending from some random YouTuber. I've given up attempting Melissa runs a long time ago. I'll play this game more frequently than I do other VNs, just because it makes me think of the Megan I had in my life years ago.

But I'm not getting into that again. I've had a crap enough day as it is.
