First impressions.

You can be like that too. For example, the last time I saw, you were "hating" Shelby from ToxiCity, saying you’d want to leave her behind if possible. She wasn’t in the game much, and she didn’t do anything terrible either, so...
We're in a life and death situation in that one and she is clearly mentally unstable, potentially dangerous and has had a lot more screen time than Mika, but if we talk about other games here it's going to get deleted anyway.

I don't know what Mika has done to generate so much hate. She gets more hate than Fawn and all she's done so far is be a bit of a brat at times. Like I said, for this game I haven't made my mind up about anyone yet - also, from MC's perspective, how bad would someone have to be for you to not be able to put up with them on occasion for 2 years if it got you laid regularly before you die?
For me it isn't really I hate or dislike her exactly. I can't pin point what it was without a replay but I believe it was the 2nd time she was hanging out with the MC in the 1st episode ( before the fight at the diner). She did or said something that just rubbed me the wrong way. Like to be honest I would say it's more of I have no interest in her and not a dislike cause she hasn't done anything to say I don't like her but enough to tell me I don't have an interest in her. Doesn't help I think everyone else is more attractive than her when it comes to looks , the only time looks somewhat matters to me when I don't know enough about the character.

Alright that's fair. If I had to take a stab at why someone might not like Mika it's because her humor doesn't land right with whoever it is.

a) faking an accent to make money
b) on her phone half engaged in convos
c) being ganged up on by Patricia and Nikki
d) generally not doing anything with the plot except being there
e) she's tiny so that helps with the guys that like petite women but might alienate someone else
f) she's got a decent ass (that's not a negative, just wanted it tossed in)

Of the strippers we actively engage with, she's almost at the bottom on the amount of lewd/erotic material (Fawn would be #1 but Fawn actually puts out on her date so...). Nikki is close to the bottom too in terms of content but makes up for it with being supportive.
I think all of the girls would do a) if it got them more money and, being Asian, she's just playing up stereotypes and expectations. If you have to live with racism, you might as well make a few bucks off of it. b) Yes, that's annoying but if you've met many 20 somethings recently - not at all unusual. Besides she has to keep up appearances with her college friends etc if she doesn't want them to know what she does for a living. I'm not sure why c would be a reason to dislike her, d) is true for most of the ladies so far. e & f are just subjective notes about her appearance. I haven't made any decisions about any of them, because none of them have had enough development yet to form an opinion - but I don't see any reason to single her out as a negative.

Again, it's pretty funny coming from you of all people. I don't remember the last time we've been in the same thread where you weren't complaining about someone, so this patience is something new.

You using whatever logic to dispute my possible points for not liking Mika...what's your goal? If they don't like Mika, who cares? Plenty of people here don't like Sylvanie and nothing is lost or gained from it. You're not gonna convince anyone to suddenly like Mika if they don't already like her.

I don't really have a goal here, I was just trying to understand. People can love and hate whoever they want, I just couldn't see why she was so unpopular in particular. Also, we're only on chapter 2. I'm sure I'll get judgemental at some point but with so many of them, we haven't spent enough time with any one in particular for me to form much of an opinion other than "seems nice" or "seems a bit sketchy".

Not just supportive, Nikki is the only one who genuinely cares for MC (so far), she wants to be his friend. She's the only one (so far, except Aurora) who didn't see him as a mark when he walked in. That's why I have those 2 ahead of everyone else at the moment (Patricia, Mika, Coral). But of course we still haven't met or spent any time Genevieve, Maddie, Miranda, Thora or Kalli yet (or the SG either).

At least no one has hit you with "Nikki is boring" or "Patricia is dead to me" yet.

The first one would be fine - it's completely a matter of opinion and has no impact on me. The second a few people have come close to, which is also fine - and they said why, and there's a reason. I just asked why Mika was so unpopular and instead of answering people decided to come after me ... which just made me more interested in people's reaction to Mika. I'll have to go back and revisit her scenes and see if I can figure it out.

that's kinda a low bar though in a strip club :ROFLMAO: Without knowing you what would you expect from strippers?
Exactly, which made Nikki and Aurora stand out. The others were just doing their job (nothing wrong with that). But Nikki and to a lesser extent, Aurora, saw something different. Why didn't they cosy up to him and hang all over him like the others?

Geez, Patricia had her top off and was rubbing her feet on his dick before he could finish saying hello.

Nikki and Aurora even declined the "buy the stripper the overpriced glass of water." (Not sure that will go down well with ownership). :ROFLMAO:
Those 2 didn't see him like that, they saw him as a person, rather than a mark, which made them stand out to me.

they are just shit at their job probably :ROFLMAO: But honestly, doesn't make any difference to me. They are there to earn money, so they do what they gotta do and that's that. At least they are not all cardboard characters, I'm giving them all an equal chance.

Or they’re really good at their job and now he feels like he’s special.
