Judging by the LI lineup and seeing that Lisa and Tara were in the middle makes me think that they will be the main LI's of the next game. Personally I'm not bothered by that, but it will be weird to explain it storywise.
I never understood that, if you are attached to a character it's usually due to how she looks or her personality, not if she's a virgin or not. It literally changes nothing about her in my opinion if she's a virgin or not.
Yeah, for me its the emotional connection of those 3 characters that feels ireplaceable, the physical part is just the cherry on top in their dynamic. But, although the core audience that has been a while with the game seems mature enough to look past that, you know that discussion will come up 100%.
This should be neither a good nor a bad thing. That Jaye waited five years for Alex, her adopted brother, remains cringe-worthy for me like few things

Shoutout to the 'Jaye is not a virgin' thread war
But then she destroys his dick the first time they have sex. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.This should be neither a good nor a bad thing. That Jaye waited five years for Alex, her adopted brother, remains cringe-worthy for me like few things
Tara's relationship with Jaye is part of what makes her special, IMO.
Eh, okay.
In theory that could be worked around. The story would presumably be about poor Tara finally encountering love directed towards her specifically, thus allowing her to move on and find happiness of her own. But it would be a very narrow path that makes the new romance engaging without belittling the events of CS that caught the audience's attention in the first place.
Eh, I never liked either of them so I'm glad we'll get more options. Of course, it's not clear catering to my tastes is a great business model.
Mallory is a virgin, Jaye is not, therefore Mal > Jaye, checkmateInb4 "Jaye is a whore because she wasn't a virgin when MC had sex with her"
In CS canon Alex and Jaye are a couple, I have little doubt about that, so that would be the situation. By the way the strong bond is between Tara and Jaye not with Mallory (which would be more complicated to introduce)In theory that could be worked around.

There's also the issue that Tara remains Jaye's BFF. If she's a central character in the next game and meets the love of her life, you'd think she'd want to tell Jaye about it - which raises the issue of how the next game handles our preferences in this one.
It's a very thorny set of problems. There's a real risk they missed the mark with Tara and it trying to catch lightning in a bottle twice will simply wind up burning them and breaking the bottle for good measure. Then again maybe it will work and all those Tara fans will finally get to live happily ever after. We'll just have to wait and see.

By your theory you also want to say Jill > Bella, Jill > Sage, Jill > Quinn, Jill > Josy, Mallory > Tara?Mallory is a virgin, Jaye is not, therefore Mal > Jaye, checkmate
But they are both lesbian-ish... And this suspends all judgementMallory is a virgin, Jaye is not, therefore Mal > Jaye, checkmate
In my playthrough, I see Jaye as a virgin - she has never been with another man.Mallory is a virgin, Jaye is not, therefore Mal > Jaye, checkmate
All of them are confirmed to be LI for the next game? Or are some just characters you could potentially sleep with?
Don't think they ever mentioned their status, between main and secondary, but at least Skye and Taylor have been in a lot of renders posted by Kentyrr in the past year, so maybe better chance those should be main? But, reading the status update about wanting to add more LI and faster relationship progression with most of them, might as well all be main LI. Went from game with 2LI, that barely had enough time for side girls, to game with 10 LI, will see how it goes.
