Yeah, one of the modules makes Love impossible to gain. It's an easy task to unpack it and change the conditions to simply make Love impossible to go past 10.

I must be missing something with this game. It seems like a lot of mindless clicking and grinding for what amounts to access to a scene viewer. I'm not seeing much point after unlocking all the positions with one character.
I think I might have done something wrong, because I'm still getting the low fps problems. I tried looking for the script parts of the files, but I can't seem to find them, I just dowloaded the .rar from the first page, did I miss something?

The game is a sandbox. What do you expect us to tell you? Do what you want, and if you dont like what you do - move on.

Skip the main page link - that one is completely outdated and will cause tremendous issues. As for the lag fix - theres a win10fix script in the scripts part of the launcher - mark it and see if the situation improves.It's not that big of a sandbox. The fun comes from traits and modules (think custom AI and effect scripting) that have effects on relationship stats, then further fun comes from weird modules with functions that range from alternative ways for characters to be "killed", body and clothing transformations, interesting stat changes, etc.
There's more depth with the game with the stuff I mentioned above added to it, though it is shallow as a sandbox to the degree the shallowness is felt slightly even after enhancement via mods and behavior modules. However you can't really find much better for a hentai game. I thought about finding similar fun in other games before.
A good way to compare this game to the most similar triple A content I can think of: treat it like The Sims (3 or 4) with more speed between character interactions and opinion changes, the possibility of fights and murder, and with a heavy focus on just the social aspect instead of the random pop-up dream / goal / motivation / aspiration aspect where your current sandbox goal (for yourself made by you) is derailed through heavy incentivization by the game giving you whatever mission it thinks is appropriate for you.
AA2 is the unfinished dream experience that Koikatsu could have been if it moved in the direction to improve the interactive aspects instead of forsake them entirely. In an alternative universe where Koikatsu was instead a direct improved successor to Artificial Academy, all of the expanded voice acting variety would actually be significant to character development, more actions would be available to the player for friendship and mayhem, and all the graphical excellence from Koikatsu / Honey Select could be used with a richer foundation of gameplay.
Alas, even when considering games like Hentai High School Plus, or modded game builds for the Sims, Skyrim, Honey Select, Koikatsu, they don't quite give the same chaotic social feel. The only game experience I've seen that comes close to AA2 and in a sense surpasses it is highly modded Rimworld. Really. A lot of modding goes into that result and 2D isometric characters is not a good medium for porn scenes but character and world building happens with good weight on both letting the player do stuff and having the game give you a good fight for your effort, and with LoversLab RimJobWorld and some choice visual replacement it does a fine job if a bit uglier.

What does happen? Nothing? Error message? Something else? If we are playing "go in blind and guess what the problem is" - my first go-to would be a not-installed Core Runtime that MiniPPX requires (and Mini did not). My second go-to - "not guessing, need more info".
Which is kind of weird, because following the instructions on the download page, the items on the extra folder are already installed.
I try to open the AAPlay, but nothing happens; When I downloaded the Mini from the first page the game opened normally, although with the fps drops
I Just tried restarting my PC but it still didn't work, I'll try reinstalling the files of the extra folder, to see if it's that
(thanks for all the replies and help BTW!)
thing is i dont know how to follow those instrusctions, like i really dont get it at all
I'll paraphrase a meta-guide for you to follow with that guide. Follow these steps loosely and follow the

more closely.- Install the game and check to see if its AAU is the newest version.
- Check your Microsoft Redistributable installed version. If you lack it then a convenient link to it is in the guide or you can find the MS redis file yourself online.
- Get the AAU PPeX mod core through that MediaFire link in the guide. Be careful to install the latest version of each mod and avoid any version / choice redundancy.
- Pay attention especially to
!shadowsets and their contained files. The short story of it is only the folder with the ! is active and the rest are not, and for every folder that is active they should never have the same folder/file enabled as another!shadowset's folder/file. For example, if !shadsetA has folderA/FileA inside, make sure !shadsetB does not contain folderA/FileA inside the same way. If it's FolderB/FileA or FolderA/FileB then that counts as distinctly different.
- Pay attention especially to
- Download and install the rest of the stuff in the guide as normal, but please skip the section named "3D Rooms and Morecum" and JMCP until the end, and skip any patch related to it until the end.
- That's technically not what the official guide suggests by the way it is ordered but this mod is both optional and very prone to causing issues through being installed incorrectly. You can save a headache and have a working game before you go back and enable this.
- Read the debug section and take notes about potential issues, then boot the game and see if issues appear.
- When you change mods, make sure you delete the entire line that starts as
mods=from the filesavedconfig.luain the folderAA2MiniPPX/AAUnlimited.- The reason for this advice is because mod config data gets stored there and may carry old settings that will clash with new incoming mods. This line is regenerated every time the game boots if it currently does not exist in the file, so doing this is a convenient way to reset mod settings to make sure the new and old mods work together as best as they can.

if you get stuck or if a problem suddenly appears in your game.Iirc it should be enabled by default if you used the modern installation one.

As sptkc said, it should be enabled by default. But you can check it by firing up the launcher, navigating to Scripts tab, selecting the "unlocks" script, and clicking Settings (greyed out if the script itself is disabled).

While you are both correct about gay stuff being in the game in its "default" form, the mode itself is extremely rudimentary - for one, theres no sound of guys having a go at it. Its just two guys wriggling about in complete silence, with the horny mood music playing in the background, which makes you wonder whats going on, especially if the guys in question are fucking behind some obstacle and arent visible at first glance.
In order to bring it to a servicable state, one needs to fiddle with JMCP and homosex mod files. All are mandatory to bring it up to equal footing with the regular hetero sex scenes, or even dyke play. Hell, the only reason i know this is because i was looking to give my PC a voice in sex scenes, and i still seem to miss a sound file for simultaneous climax, since the only sounds i get with this is a loud clap, and what sounds like someone rolling a microphone against their face, instead of... what you would expect.
Its a lot of work and a ton of explaining... and i dont feel like it.
Boy-on-boy is a default option but lacking. I did give advice on how to enhance homo-for-boys and futa before, but I never actually tried it. It's a set of options / patches for JMCP. Here's the post in which I tried to boil down how to go about tuning JMCP for that.
You can also search posts on this thread made by the user somethingpersonal, they went farther into this direction too. Of course disclaimer, hardly anyone on this thread is an expert in AA2 mechanisms, F95 simply doesn't have the community savvy for expert debug and tuning. If all of our advice fails you can always search for a more dedicated forum or Discord server.
I would say the

EDIT: in case this isnt clear to some people - the points in the history sub-tab are moving towards the top. The most recent point is at the bottom, and the one about to get "ejected" is at the top. As you can see, i would have to replace my whole LLDH to get to the bad points, and then start replacing those. Not happening - not with the % chances of interaction im having. Once the girl asks to break up - she will get another 6 dislike and 6 hate as a result (3 and 3 if i refuse, but theres no point to that). RIP.
