Oofda sorry to hear that, man, BADIK is really worth it, some of the absolute best characters/character models and scenes but from what I've heard I get you avoiding it if Acting Lessons had that effect on you. I had a similar reaction to the Klaus scene where it really set up a before/after feeling to the VNs I played. And I get you about staying with the main LI; I do a play through of most games with the main/preferred LI solo then do the rest. Tried with Haley but Sandra was too adorable to break up with honestly.
Summer With Mia also gave me a before/after feeling with the dad bj scene but the surprise in that one was much more "vanilla" and sexually based surprise as opposed to this one/AL/Avalon where the surprise is more emotional.
Acting Lessons, every-time I remember it, it gives me chills.....
Life is full with drama and the older you become, the more drama and less from everything else.....soooooo no thanks!
That's why I like (Love) Haley so much...even thou she suffers....she is not focused on the pain (everybody has a breaking point but still) she enjoys spending time with MC and her life and she deserves to be spoiled (not too much
). She is just really strong person and since the MC found out about what happened, I enjoy her character even more, because I realize how strong she is.......PLS enough with the bad endings. I don't play games for that....Movies and Real-Life is for that.
She is so strong that she loved MC so much her whole life only loving him and she is even fine sharing him (not the case with Acting Lessons and some other games)....
You have no idea how much love/strength you need so you could do that.... it reminds me of Californication.
