Let's assume that everyone tells the story they want.All of the women in this game are attractive. It is unlikely and difficult for a dev to put unattractive characters in games. Much like a movie or TV show, you rarely see an unattractive person unless they have something specific to offer. It is funny reading all the comments about how horrible it is that <my favorite LI> was screwed over by the devs in this story. I keep waiting for a legitimate critique of the story and its characters that doesn't involve ridiculous bias.
The story is about the MC and Jaye. Everyone else is secondary to the story. If the story were about how the best friend and MC should've been together, Tara would have a bigger role. If the story were about how the MC fell in love with the CEO of his parents' company, then Lisa would be the focus. But this is "the story of step-siblings reconnecting and dealing with the fallout of their parents' unexpected deaths." Not the story of how step-siblings deal with the fallout of their parents' unexpected deaths and meet an intrepid reporter and she changes their lives!
Yes, Mallory is secondary in the story. She is a love interest but not the focus of the story. She plays a major role in the telling of a story about two siblings coming to grips with their parents' death and how they are thrust into running a major corporation together. Despite Mallory being secondary, a good amount of the story concentrates on the feelings growing between the MC and Mallory and how she fits into the corporation run by the MC's parents. But that isn't the story. This is a love story about Jaye and the MC.
Now, there is something off about the Mallory/Amanda/MC relationship. It does feel a bit forced. Although, Amanda's personality and life experience play well into the awkwardness. It doesn't quite explain everything and many players are left with the feeling that something is not quite right. I do not believe that is because Mallory is secondary in the story or that the devs did not focus more on her character development.
I would love to see some honest critiques of why the secondary characters should be the primary story. Something other than, "She's my favorite."
I'll go for "chicken steak" then!t. It is pretty much a "chicken or steak" kind of decision
While I like Tara's character (despite the ridiculous hair) more than Amanda's, Amanda's role in the story seems more important to me. Tara added flavor to the Jaye/MC story. Amanda's role deepens and broadens the story with Mallory and the aspect of the story about the corporation.Let's assume that everyone tells the story they want.
But Tara's role in the relationship between Jaye and mc is much more important than Amanda's role, and this despite the fact that Tara was at one point banned from the story and confined to mobile phone messages. It was a choice like that to force Amanda's presence in the group (as had also been done for Mallory before) . I don't think it is among the priorities of a company under attack to test unapproved treatments on a stranger.
I don't see any need why the story had to go in this direction, it was just a choice.
Well, if you mean that Jaye should be the one and only, of course! Look at her!So , what you mean is that "the primary Main girl in a game should be the one and Only Li " , Right ?
If you increase a character's 'on-stage' time, it is normal that his or her importance increases, the same happened with Lisa, captain Tanaka and Bianca. But Amanda didn't answer any questions that we had outstanding.While I like Tara's character (despite the ridiculous hair) more than Amanda's, Amanda's role in the story seems more important to me.

I have to completely agree that a major pharmaceutical company would never test an unapproved treatment on a human patient. It is one part of the story that fails the reality test. But dammit, the women are just so hot that I am willing to overlook it!
Gotta love Jaye's fire! Those redheads!OMG , That's the spirit

Hey , Jaye is my 1st choise also No doubt But I love to play the great games as many times of the gorgeous girls , Meaning I can play it For Jaye Only then for Lisa only and so on and it is very easy thanks for pressing right control button you need to study the game only one time then play it again easyWell, if you mean that Jaye should be the one and only, of course! Look at her!
Nah, I love that the devs gave us the choice. Some people might be completely against Jaye as an LI considering their relationship. Mallory is hot. She is. But Jaye...Jaye is one of the hottest women I have ever seen in a VN. On the other hand, I realy appreciate the love that grows between Mallory and the MC. It is endearing. While the love between Jaye and the MC is deep and overwhelmingly honest. The kind of love I would kill for.
But choices are wonderful! Especially when we get two world-class women to choose from!

I'd call that a straw man, buddy.I would love to see some honest critiques of why the secondary characters should be the primary story. Something other than, "She's my favorite."
especially considering the alternatives that were proposed to us afterwards.I'd call that a straw man, buddy.
Asking for Tara not to vanish from the game, and asking for a chance to maybe have some more romantic interactions with her, is not asking for her to become the primary character in the story.
Jaye is by far the most important female character in the game; it would be ridiculous to deny it and I don't think anyone would. Now, that wouldn't need to mean that Jaye should be the main or even the only romantic option, which is proved by the fact that the devs offered Mallory as an alternative. Jaye would always be at the centre of the main story and working side by side with the MC even if Tara was presented as a viable secondary romantic option. I think Tara is an important enough person in the main characters' lives to have been given at least that chance.
