In case anyone was wondering, the scene with Kendra is exclusive to a caring mc. It depends on having kissed her in ep. 4, which in turn required the MC's care stat (
mcp.care
) to be at least 5 and a previous story choice in ep. 3, which in turn required care to be higher than confidence.
Doing the side jobs in the ep. 5 free-roam requires a minimum danger level which screwed me over, as I'd done the social work events in the previous versions to minimize it. In the end I just cheated, but would be good to have some way to bring the danger level up to make the jobs available.
I was disappointed to see
Mia leave after her scene with the MC. Seemed like the game just forgot what had happened and merged her paths. But of course the dev needs to control the branching somehow.
does it have things like repeats or grinding?
Not the stat grinding kind of game. There are stats and they matter, but they're affected by unique events.
