This actually is the only thread I’ve encountered that MC’s given name is used more than the phrase MC itself. Mostly because Orion actually isn’t a random name and is actually vital to the plot along with the other names like Dalia, Penelope etc.
Is it ever mentioned in the story that his name is important? I don't think I've seen that so far. Or is this based on the overall pattern of naming? In which case, how does Annie fit in? And Nancy?

If the introduction had warned that the name was important and I should consider whether I really wanted to change it, I might not have. I'm in the habit of changing names because often I don't like the default names and there are no consequences to the story from me changing it, so it became a thing. I did the same here without thinking.

To change back now, I'd have to remake all my saves. Which I might do since it appears that the default name is deliberately chosen to match with the story and other characters.

There's some interesting references in the story between Orion (MC) and his mythological namesake, at the very least. I'd mention what they are, but if you haven't played up to the end of 0.5 yet then I can't say much without risk of spoiling stuff.

I can't imagine the name of the MC mattering, as in you missing out on scenes because you have the wrong name.

I dont think it matters too much except for a few tiny easter eggs here and there. But there are a lot of references to greek myths and having the MC named after a badass legendary greek hero fits nicely in my opinion. You also dont need to replay from scratch if you want to change the name you can probably change it using the console.

Yes, I can change the name with the console. Easy. Even changing it for my old saves is not difficult: load, console, save.

I peeked. Heh. I wonder if that's because it's assumed you'll change it?

Either way, I think I like the way the original name fits, now that I've played a good amount and know more of the story.

Dammit! How could this happen? I had it all set in my head. Competition between Luna and Annie for best girl. Though I had a suspicion that at some point Nova might tempt me to choose her. We'll see. But Alex. Dammit. Alex! I liked her. She's cool, she's got the right attitude to getting away from her toxic family. She's super fucking hot. But she didn't have what the other two had, and Nova, when she's not being all hard-ass hacker, sometimes shows, that certain quality of being adorable that always gets me. Then, she shows her sweet vulnerable side again, and not long after she's on her knees, tits out, giving a world class blowjob and now she's in the running as well. How will I choose?

Luckily, I already know this choice is an illusion. There's no choosing between these girls. It's all of them. I may think I have a favourite, but who that is will change with the wind.

The party was interesting. Both for what we learn about how Alex came to be who she is, and the mysterious man who spoke to Orion by the statues who I believe knows something important, and the equally cryptic meeting with the founder. And well, then there's that part, outside the maze.

Yeah and I am so glad this is a harem game.

I cannot choose just 1 girl they are all so likable. Usually in harem games there are one or two characters I dislike. But not here. In this game I like them all. The only thing I wish the game did was establish the harem sooner so we did not have to hide relationships from the other girls.

I personally think Eros (that's the reference I got. Idk if there are other Greek names that Nova references to in this scene/dialogue) is funnier here considering all the crap we did in that party

Eros was what Orion (MC) was going for with his costume but Nova thought otherwise (hence her line in the scene).

anyway, since he has a default name, I call him Orion. I never name the characters after myself anyway, so i perfectly fine with him having an official name that we can refer to it , instead of MC:cool:

The girls in the park

The post-party park scene was so cute! Alex sitting alone talking about the boy she's met and she thinks maybe…. Dalia arriving and telling her about what she did on her private server, but Alex doesn't know the boy is the same one she's starting to feel something for. Then Penny, dressed sexy for Orion, though she won't directly admit it. Dalia is still showing jealousy, fearful that Penny will take the boy she won't yet admit she wants (her thinking that she should get him to pleasure her so that they're even and then that's it, no more) so she goes along to meet Nancy. I think it may not be long before they all know about each other.

I liked this scene a lot for it being a moment in the story where nothing much is happening, just girls being girls.

The rooftop bar meeting

Can we take a moment to appreciate how incredible Annie looks here? Her outfit is simple and cute and totally shows off her awesome body without looking like she's trying to be sexy. Nothing wrong with girls trying to look sexy, of course. Bring it on. And I think Annie could do it well. But this is the look that would have me thinking 'I want to get to know this girl'.

Day of the Dead

Victor is so cool. I like him. His family also. Luna on the car drive, definitely falling for Orion even as she tries to pretend they are just friends. Luna in a bikini! Luna with a chicken on her head!?! What?

WTF was that at the gas station?

College party prep

Nova and the manga was great. Talented girl.
Penny is not being subtle about her intentions. I am sure we're on the verge of something there. Her costume is amazing. Nova's is better.
