ahh interesting, I never really considered there would be that much content that was exclusive to certain 'routes'. Looks like I'm doing another few playthroughs!
Only with the MC's ridiculous reaction...I can understand both their point of veiws personally and get their personalities and why they kept certain things to themselves. Didn't bother me in the slightest and is perfectly reasonable in my own perspective. I don't see that either really did anything wrong given the whole context and neither of them owed the MC a damn thing in reality.
That's how I felt playing this, then when I met Jill, I totally flipped and had to start over. But since then, I've played multiple routes. It's nice to see another girl on here besides me, lol.
I just hope he doesn't screw up my goals with Jillian lol.
Honestly I agree with you, I don't think anyone 'owed' anything to anyone in that particular moment, but for me given the relationship issues between M&J it felt false for me for them to stick with each other. I would have thought, given MC's overreaction and the girls' issues, that all three would have parted ways romantically until the story progressed to either push two of the characters together (or all three of them - who cares).
There's very little you miss with the main LIs by pursuing all of them. There are only 2 things that are missable because you have to choose which one you want; the Sage or Maya scene in ep 2, and the Maya or Josy scene in ep 5. Everything else with every other LI can be seen, especially if you stay with Bella in ep 4.
Another girl! OMG Jill is my close second to Maya, she's probably who I'm going to play for next. The funny part is when I make decisions I'm always acting as if the others will find out about them (like hello, it's not real life, me!)
Jill to me is the odd one out. regardless of what choices we make...we're still interacting (shall we say) with a low of other women (and even tell her on our date). So with her, she will have to accept a little indiscretion shall we say in order for us to move forward with her. I would say she is my second favourite girl personally regardless of some of the hate she gets for being dull. Dull is nice, sweet is nice, caring is nice (from a male perspective) and usually means long-term rather than short-term.
Some of mine would Depraved Awakening, City of Broken Dreamers, Dreams of Desire, Where it all Began for definites, then for me also Midnight Paradise (but the MC is a dick), Sisterly Lust & Tales from the Unending Void (same dev) and Areas of GRAY. There are many others highly praised here that I just didn't find compelling enough to finish them ir just don't get the hype (Acting Lessons being a perfect example. Imo...it's ok..nothing more and the quality is nothing to write home about, plus...that ending...I personally wouldn't recommend it...it really wasn't that great a story imo...but...different strokes as they say)
I do sorta agree, but also you miss vital connections when Josy and her father are talking outside the party if you choose to stay with Maya. Same if you choose Josy, you miss that connection with Maya. But that's kinda my point. It may be tedious but if someone wants to get the "full" picture of the relationships developing between them and the MC another playthrough with a diff route is the only way.
Awe, I love you just for saying that about Jill, lol. I actually enjoyed Sisterly Lust (non-taboo version no incest) because it was my first game. But I've actually grown to like Leap of Faith lately. I think the writing is more romantic than this game. They're all just good fun.
On that point, I do somewhat agree. I have said previously (many times) that a better resolution might have been for the revelation of their "infidelities" with the MC to make them question their relationship, to make them wonder, "what do we do now?" I feel they could still not be mad at each other because they both understand why they would do such things with the MC since they both feel very similarly about him, but it should have made them uncertain about what it means for their relationship, not to immediately lock lips and act like everything was fine.
Josy and her Dad talk before the choice between M&J, so you get to see that part if you're still with both of them.
I thought Sage is very doting to the point of being obsessive? You can evidently see it in Ep5 flashback.
*Cough* Chad as the side bitch*Cough*
I think it's only an honorable mention when Tybalt asked Jill, not sure if it will have accumulated consequences later on with Jill, Like what Leah did in AL, collect all the evidence of what you did and show it to your LI. As for Maya, most likely just a game mechanism for those who are really cash strapped?
So you don't think like if the next episode comes out, that talking to either one will have an effect on your future with them?
I agree it is a bad choice. However I think the correct one for the M+J route is to choose Maya. In that moment Maya is upset for obvious (if selfish) reasons. Josy on the other hand had a lovely moment with her father. Maya needs the comfort. Josy doesn’t. The fact that Josy ‘catches‘ you and suggests she wants to join in, while Maya doesn’t find out about Josy And MC on camera is another clue.
I still think that if you aren't in a relationship with Maya and Josy they are going to break up at some point which will lead to possible solo routes with each of them. I think they are only going to stay together if you are on their path and depending on your choices you can be with both of them or just one.
agreed.
Yeah, when I learned there was a taboo version I almost cried lol. But you should def have fun with Leap of Faith, early on you get to choose the kind of path you want to take which definitely changes things. I was never into the hardcore stuff, idk many girls that are, but if I'm playing this kind of game I prefer a romantic interest. The comedy in LoF is great. Let me know what you think of it later.
I disagree with that, I think you absolutely need those solo scenes. For the poly route to work they need to open with each other, something they haven't always been up until now and that spark is what lets them really start to talk about how this will work. Going forward I want to see many more choices of this type with the MC having to balance the time he spends with M+J to not lose one of them (or both if Affinity is also a determining factor)
