I think I get what you mean; it's not like most of us here didn't get interested in the first place because of some crazy LEWD action going on. Or just wanting to hang out with Jojo more. Personally, for me, jerking off to video games is just not for me anymore (not judging others if they do) and missing lewd scenes also doesn't affect me as much. (It still sucks you can't just platonically hang out more.)
Recently, I started editing saves/cheating 4fun (I can't have headcanon? What you gonna do DPC, huh!? Leak my IP address???) and I decided to try and change something that was never possible in the DIK playthrough. I got Jill's shower scene after the tennis match. And you know what I discovered? That, at least IMO, made the whole date quite less romantic with Jill naked, a possible boob touch and that first kiss half-naked wasn't as good as when they did it after talking on the bench.
I always played DIK because of the confidence and standing up to yourself, not being a little emotional mouse all the time, but I knew that it wasn't all about that. Which is why imagine my surprised face when I discovered that the DIK path, previously filled with lots of objectification of women and casual sex, had a far more romantic version of Jill's date than the CHICK path.
