This is a very frustrating game. On the plus side, it has a great story, with very interesting characters. Even the fat guy is someone you would want in your life (as opposed to the usual 'fat guy' trope in these games). The women are almost all interesting, well-written and very sexy. At this point, I believe it is a 5 star game.
Which brings us to the weak link of this game: only one LI, and she is the worst character in the game. Emily is so immature, annoying and just hard to take that it is rather difficult getting through her scenes. I get what the dev is going for, but tthis plan fails when you make Emily the only choice for the MC. Plenty of players find Emily cute and lovable, but I find her annoying. And knowing that, as the MC, I don't get to be with Ash or Samantha (in a relationship), is just a deal-breaker for supporting this game. Yeah, the MC could use some work, maybe stop being so beta, but for my money the only real flaw of this game is the pre-determined LI. Hell, the waitress introduced in Chpt 9 is a better character than Emily.
I don't want to sound too harsh, as the dev has given a great deal of time and thought into the plot and the world the MC inhabits. This is no "meet and fuck," and for that I am grateful. But Emily just falls short.
