This game keeps re-using the same dynamic of having a character make a bad first impression followed by the MC having to look or get past that in order to build up a relationship. It's A LOT of the first interactions with a character:
- The landlady that missed your mom's funeral
- Beth stealing your phone and acting self-important
- Stella being a spoiled whiner
- Satoshi selling his sister's panties
- Sex addict jumping you immediately when you meet.
- The principal making you jump through hoops just for her to be of no help.
My problem with this dynamic is that in most cases we don't have any goodwill built up with those characters, so there's really no good reason to salvage a relationship that doesn't really exist yet. If a stranger comes into my life acting like an asshole, it isn't even a matter of whether I forgive them or not. I would just avoid them going forward, whether I keep resenting them or not. You don't make the effort to work things out with people that don't mean anything to you yet.
Also, when so many characters act the same like that. It starts feeling like it isn't really their own personal characteristics as much as it's just a pattern/tendency that the writer keeps abusing.
