THanks! I got it on my second attempt - just like you described it. Great scene!
Really enyjoying this game. Wondering if there's any way to change world seed for a game in progress? I'm regretting some of my gender ratio decisions but I've put in quite a few hours already and don't really want to go through all of it again. Was hoping the character customization unlock would do it, but I guess it's only cosmetic changes and not genitals.
Not sure about any other requirements, but for me it usually happens in the 2nd week seemingly at random while walking around. In the 1st week on Friday you should get an invitation from the Best Friend to the Bar in the town.

how do you learn people's names...?
Running around with a bunch friendship bars that are filling up but attached to people whose name i don't know. I know like 3 total. It is weird.

They can (VERY rarely) mention it in group chats around lunch or similar. I finished most of the story quests and played through multiple months now and I think it's happened about 5 times. And obviously the nature of this group interaction makes it impossible to target a specific person as well.
Besides that, they will tell you if you ask before sex...IF they like you. So if you want to play someone getting bullied like me, forget ever learning the names of anyone you want to fuck because they will refuse 99% of the time lol. Or, you know. If you actually just want to make friends with someone and not fuck them - granted, this is a more forgivable oversight in a porn game.
There's probably a third way, but I don't know it.
On the other hand, I still haven't met the named special arcade regular in my playthrough despite spending a decent amount of time there, doing regular bets, forfeits and the special saturday prize round multiple times. Only thing I can think of is having to win the Saturday tournament to meet them but that seems like an absurd barrier to just meeting a character, considering that as I said I am according to the hints done with about 50% of the paths and others are stalling me (just got a repeat challenge in the classroom from roommate's partner, so I assume I exhausted that as well - disappointing if so since I wanted them to fuck me).
My only big issue with the game though is with the dynamic sex scenes. The big problem ATM is they are basically identical the first time as every other one as far as I can tell, that some things could use more interactivity (attention to piercings, tattoos, etc), and there should be more dialogue from your partner and option to choose things to say like in DoL. More submissive (and presumably dominant, I haven't played that though) variety in e.g. self-actions again similar to DoL would also be nice. I like the setting and a lot of the core gameplay/ideas in this over DoL, but I do miss some of the options from that in these scenes.

Lolnoder good info, thanks.
The thing is, this game is sold as much as a simulation game as it is an adult one. In multiple instances. It even calls itself a 'heavy simulator' at one point. And with that in mind, not including such simple interactions as character introductions in a social simulation game is really weird.
It gets old walking around and seeing stuff like 'a toned late twenties slightly dressed up brown-haired man' all the time. Takes you right out of the simulation aspect of the game.

I learn most of the names by attending the Friday quad parties. It's like the fastest way to raise (or lower, if they hate you) favorability with a group of people. I also get most of my hookups on Friday Quad parties. You just gotta leave or go inside and back out of you want to reroll the people. I sometimes learn names by talking to people before or during class.
If you like, you can also take videogame bets at the dorm lounge, lose, and tell the other person you don't have money. If you lose again, they'll take you to their room so you can strip in front of them. Sometimes they'll tell you their name.

In case anyone comes into the thread later wondering, try to minimize working at the school cafeteria or whatever. You never get a raise and there's no special scenes for it. If you go through the burger storyline, you eventually get $15/hr. There's of course better income opportunities than the burger joint, but if you don't want to/can't be a streamer, cam girl/boy, or videogame prizewinner, you'll want to work at the burger joint.
Your mom will increase your weekly debt by 50 bucks every couple months, and I've no idea if there's a cap. I'm currently trying to become a popular just chatting streamer (since all my other stats are dogshit lol) so that I can eventually buy shit. No idea what happens if you refuse to pay your parents every Monday.

The roadmap implies there is no consequence currently, but some will be added. Eventually.
Saw some discussions on the discord that the Summit Mart Job is gonna have some updated events next patch. Burger Joint is indeed the better income generator especially if you include betting in the Arcade ($50 on weekdays and possible $200 on weekends) assuming that your Video Gaming Skill is high.
iirc there is currently a cap on how much the mom asks but I can't remember currently. Not sure what not paying the parents does too.

Very helpful post, indeed. I'd like to add that so far both jobs have little (QuickieBurger) to nothing (Summit market) worth playing through the grinding paths with very little pay. I really don't get virgin runs in porn games, I would love to see this content cut out or rebuild with fun content. I doesn't necessarily have to be sexual stuff, just something making it at least a little entertaining. Maybe using the full range of accidental nipslips, upskirt, nudity, the getting a tipp cliché, whatever. Just SOMETHING.

refusing to pay isn't a game end, but you'll be limited in what you're allowed to spend your money on. which shouldn't be a big deal if you're saving the money for something big anyway. the debt doesn't accumulate either.
I started a new playthrough focusing on playing a more dominant character, used cheats this time though because I ain't waiting for all that shit. Other than slightly more control in sex it doesn't seem to change much so far which is disappointing. Like with 10 dom from cheating and high physical stats I noticed I still have no ability to turn the tables on roommate's partner in the showers for example.
In general the asymmetry of a lot of this stuff feels off - like when I played as sub the setup for bets in the arcade was all good but now as a dom it's really frustrating that the NPCs never take the L and let you do things with them as payment for example. Or if they do it's gotta be super rare - I unintentionally won quite a few in my first playthrough after raising my video gaming skills and never saw it happen.

I don't think people work those jobs for virgin runs. You could technically do the streaming/adult streaming route and stay a virgin. The issue is that you need like 500 bucks just to get started with streaming or high videogame skills to stop working the foodworker jobs. You can't really get rid of those completely without also getting rid of the weekly spending requirement because of this. If you're willing to not pay your parents, you can also choose to just not work those jobs too. No need to take it from everyone else.
There's sexual content in the burger job, it's just not frequent/plenty at the moment. If you're lucky, you'll run into someone who will straight up pay you for sex.

Well, having not much patience with grindy games I cheated and cheated and cheated - money, stats... everything I could. As I said before, to me the game is unplayable without cheats. It is good that these are implemented. Otherwise it would be nothing for me, far too grindy and empty for repeating all that stuff that often.
