[Noble_Undergrounder_of_Ea]

"The game will be split into 3 'seasons' with each containing 7 episodes and representing one academic term, with the game spanning out protagonist's first year of university and containing a total of 21 canon episodes."

Damn so do we get new girls every season those Fresh women surely need love....

Hahaha, no we'll have the same girls for the whole 21 eps.

Kinda understandable since there is there is already a lot of girls. But is it confirmed all the girls has been introduced in ep.2 or will there still a few in ep.3? As long as the story and girls is in good quality I guess I will just have to wait and see.

No, we've met all 18 LIs. There will be an odd SG pop up here or there to fuck, but we've got the main ones.

Well, at least i like 5 out of 18...twins, Saki, Katie and Violete
But i'm more concerned if the dev manages to give them all enough content, or if it's waiting for multiple updates for content with ones you like, even more so with additional side girls.

I would suspect you will be waiting multiple episodes for content with them all. It's just not possible. There was a heap from Ep 1, we never even saw in Ep 2.

Ti's hard to tell given we are only 2 episodes deep, But It's not hard to have an educated guess at what this means.

We have already seen characters introduced in chapter 1 not make an appearance in chapter 2 which tells us that sometimes characters will need to take a backseat as the story demands it rather than have the story take a backseat as characters demand it.

It likely means that each update will progress a small number of characters while ignoring others meaning sometimes you won't see your girl.

Ti's the problem with a big cast of characters, it simply becomes near enough impossible to cater to everyone per update, the paths would be unmanageable, the story would descend into chaos.

Yeah, it's impossible to have content with all girls in each ep.
I just hope it won't be too much, that you will end up waiting for 3-4 updates until you get to see the LI's you choose.

True, that's why i find anything above 4-6 main LI's problematic, with that count you will have at least content with the main ones every 1 to 2 updates.

Out of reactions. But I 100% agree. Luckily there is quite a few I like here, but if you only like a couple out of 18, you're waits would be horrible.

Yeah, it can be a problem. I'll use a comparison to another game with a similar setting (this one is specifically just the dorm though) - there are a similar number of LIs there and you can literaly pick all of them at the same time. It means that you might sometimes go a few updates before a scene with a particular girl, but there are always some other scenes/girls to keep you occupied along the way, and the story is fun enough to keep you engaged. If it goes the same way, this game will hopefully be fine. If it's always just the same girls getting some, and the same not getting some, it can easily become unbalanced.

Here, as with the other game, there are clearly some who will take a lot more work though, so you'll have the "easy" girls in the early chapters while working up to potentially getting the "hard" girls involved. I would suggest the staff, the lesbian couple, and Taylor look to be the main ones in the "hard" category. Probably Violet too, actually.

 

[Lagunavii]

There's one specific game set in a school environment, where you use an app to find your kinks, that games similar to this in the fact it's multiple love interests, multiple endings etc. Though the story pushes you towards a few girls who appear in most updates while the remaining appear every other update. It works well to a degree there, but I do hope this game doesn't push a specific girl.

No, Dev said that all girls will be choices, as opposed to the other game you mentioned (where a few are forced upon you).

 

[Lagunavii]

Well technically all girls in that game are choices too, there is an alone ending in there. It's just some girls are favoured among others. I can see that happening here with at least one of the feminist, one of the cheerleaders and one of the roommates.

I meant forced scenes, you will not be forced into sex scenes at Elmwood University. In the other one, there were 2 girls that you were forced into relationships and sex scenes with throughout the 3 AVNS, yes, you could turn them down at the very end, but they were forced with no player choice. From what the Dev said, that will not be the case here.

If you mean my dorm, i liked it early on, until there were way too much girls...
If the story is interesting enough to keep you hooked than that can work (didn't for me in that game), but seeing this is a college game i doubt it will have the most interesting main story.
Also depends how fast the update cycle is. It can work with regular updates every 2 months or so, but if the updates take 4-6 months or longer and you need to wait multiple updates, i don't really see the game keeping the interest up (at least for me). I have the same problem with games which only update once a year, even if the updates are good.

Yeah, that's definitely true - if you have to wait three updates for a scene with your favourite LI and the update cycle is 9 months...

I'd be amazed if even the Dev knew what endings there are going to be for all the girls, Episode 2 only got released a short time ago.

I meant more like is there a guide to the characters you can currently have sex with and how to get to those scenes

 

[Raziel_8]

I mean, that is rather obvious...the ones you can have sex with at the moment are all coming onto the MC, it's more like you need to reject them if you have no interest.
IIRC the ones are the 3 cheerleaders, just simp for them and go along with all 3 of them, really hard to miss any of that.
For the redhead, Selina i think, just side with her and let her stay.

Ah okay i just didnt know if there were alt routes to get say Taylor or Katie

Nope, Katie is romance and likely slower. Taylor is one which i guess will among to hardest to get, maybe short of the lesbian couple.
