I did have to start a new save. I'd put myself on a path to try and romance Nicki but it just seems like she's the game little lost puppy all the evil pricks queue up to kick. She's been in the shit since her first scene, less of a headache to stay friends. I thought with her turning up in that state and all the shit she'd been through she'd get a break but then a wild Brent appears and it seems she's not getting a break.

Unlike quite a few people here I only play the nice routes, i'm a romance kinda girl. I also avoid girls that attract too much drama and Nicki is that drama magnet.

I'll keep her in the friendzone and go for Beep Boop instead.

Going to have to agree here. Nicki is a magnet to trashy people. :ROFLMAO:
I will help the girl to get up again because of their friendship with Guy but unless she really can clean up her act a relatioship past being friends (with benefits) is a no no to me. :p

Not played this since it's first initial release so apology's for not remembering names etc... I went on the good/nice guy route with the female friend from the (store) was it? When she asked the mc for help it kinda finished with a little bitter taste in my mouth as she could be a possible future LI but is still in a relationship with a complete douchebag. Can someone spoiler a little info on this, and is she still in a relationship with the douche in question? Thanks.

Hahahaha, depending on how you play it the MC is such a massive piece of shit. I love it.

I hope we get a slaveplay route for Gabby in the future (w/o the racist overtones, unless that's included in the Evil route).

Also if brent forged nicki's signature, there is no way in hell the loan shark can go after her legally, that won't hold up in the court of law

Loan sharks never go after you legally anyway. They just say stuff like "Do you like oxygen? Because it would be a shame if you didn't get any oxygen anymore." You know, if they aren't just burning down your business or breaking every bone in your body in alphabetical order.

That's how I see it.

I really liked her in the first episode but then she came back a mess. Being on the nice route i'll do what a friend would do and help her back up but as it stands she's not someone I could settle down with.

Unlike some girls, I hate drama in my relationships and that's how I play my games too. If someone is surrounded by too much bullshit I keep my distance.

I thought Nicki was adorable in the first part and now, not so much. It's like i've heard some guys say about girls with only fans and stuff, they are okay to have fun with but they won't be marrying them.

Plus I do have to remember that Nicki did cheat on her boyfriend with the MC and as the saying goes....

If a girl cheats....
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

I'll see if she sorts her life out, or should say see how the whole romance thing plays out in this game, before I write her off completely but as it stands right now I like it but I wouldn't put a ring on it.

the mc and Nikki get married in the end

but something I want to know. mc has been in love with Nikki since the start of the game right so

why did he not say I love you to Nikki when they were in bed I thought that would be his dream come true

doesn't he love her anymore:cry:

I play the good route and I love all things romance but even I wouldn't have picked to say it back if it had been an option.

She comes to him for a handout, being the good friend he is, helps out by giving her 25 grand.

She repays his kindness by ghosting him for 3 months then turning up asking for more help.

Saying "I love you" in that situation goes beyond simping straight up to mugsville. She got a LOT of work to do before she even gets an "I kinda like you". At the moment she's teetering on "I'mma tolerate you for now".

What a pleasant surprise this VN is. surprisingly well written and really captivating.
I usually wait for VNs to hit certain milestones before trying them, and I'm really glad I didn't wait with this one.
Gabby and Ashe are absolutely wonderful, and I'm looking forward to what the future holds.

Luckily you didnt do the TRM route you had planned because Nikki is already not very well liked by alot of people. If you had done the porno shoot you would have totally ruined her for the majority of players here. You would have had a ntr/anti-ntr war in your thread. Plus alot of people wouldn't even look at her scenes anymore as she'd be a "ruined LI". It's obvious that you really like the Nikki character and if that had happened well most of her scenes wouldn't be seen by many people and your hard work with her would have gone to waste. Nikki as she is now, most people still don't like her. Her story is iffy, all of a sudden she just wants to be a FWB. That is until she is ready, it's like she thinks the mc will always be waiting for her. This is purely my opinion, but I'm sure that alot of people would agree with me.

I liked Gab's storyline and where it's heading(threesome with mom or fucking her daughter behind her back is awesome) but I really dislike the model. It's not a woman I'd have sex with IRL, let alone in a videogame. I just skip all her content entirely.

Such a shame...

Considering she didn't want anything at all before that, it's still progress.

When she first asked the MC for money in the first episode she already had a boyfriend. She's been with Brent for some time.

She's just gone through 3 months of shit and you think she's going to want to jump into a relationship after all that?

I know i've got her on the back burner to see how things go but even if i'd wanted her as the one and only LI I know it's wouldn't be happening anytime soon. Her life is a mess right now.
