Why on earth is all the new beach stuff gated behind either Alexis path or Alexis_SecretPath or Layla path?

Not Layla path. Only Alexis. Either the Alexis path or the Alexis secret path (okay, you have to be on the Layla path for that but it didn't work if you're not on the secret path). But it's quite simple. Iris is the organizer of this beach meeting. Iris wants to hit on Erynn. She don't want any competition. Alexis invites you to come along if you're her boyfriend because Iris suggests this to her. He's not a competitor anymore because of the relationship with Alexis. On the secret path, you were only invited by Erynn because she wants to set MC up with her BFF. If you're not on one of the two Alexis paths, Iris doesn't suggest to Erynn or Alexis that MC can come along. It is then a girls day. That's okay. There doesn't always have to be a penis present just because the player would like to sink the doodle in one of the girls.

Yeah I mean I'm not worried about ntr scenes going down because a)i know this game wont go there b) even if it did i can handle it, ive played a ton of ntr games, but more I meant it just felt weird. Like why are we seeing this? What does this have to do with the story? (To be fair, a lot of the prior Erynn scenes often invoke a similar feeling, only way I can describe it is like you're reading the buildup dialogue in an ntr game, but then there's no sex scene - like all the talk about the Erynn escort business and photoshoot and zane - just weird, it feels like you're looking at a puzzle with pieces missing all over)

The choice to make her flawed to avoid being the girl next door as so many cases. Yet making this plotline work is another thing.

From a real-life perspective, absolutely, this makes sense.

From a gameplay perspective, not at all. It's in the interest of the dev if they've created scenes to organically weave together reasons for the mc to participate in them. Obviously in real life people are doing things all the time that dont involve you. In games, we expect to be involved because images of just sitting around are kinda lame.

Or said another way, from a gameplay sense this exclusion would make sense if that day was filled with 1 of 2 events, based on prior decisions - either Alexis path leads you to beach, or NOT(alexis path) leads you to a different day activity.

Noted your correct on Layla path, indeed that fast-forwards to the date night.

Is a dev choice and you can't make everyone happy, consumers I mean.

Losing/missing the opportunity to go with Iris and Co should allowed to be invited by Val and she leaving Darryl and bros to flirt with Mc.
Watching a pov with the girls from outside(Mc with Val), even making them jealous.

Alas we can't have everything.
I do understand the point missus made about allowing the girls having a no dick day.

Personally, I already think that realism makes sense for gameplay. Let the girls have fun among themselves. MC's chance with Erynn will come.

 

[Pr0GamerJohnny]

MC's chance with Erynn will come.

And after how many more naked cuddling sessions? Seriously I think this game is hitting a record with like 4+ topless kissing scenes yet no sex.

Honestly while I'm in the camp that I'm disappointed we didn't get the beach scene on Erynn's path. It does make sense more i read some post about it and think about it. I think it would of been better / not as a big deal to people if the update went one more day and we got a solo beach day with Erynn or at least one more event / scene with her. Especially from a gameplay prospective it makes it feel like the chapter ended a bit too quickly, while if you were on any other path it felt like a decent amount off content / length.

She's a quality girl. You've to work to get into her pants.

where is Cara anal ? What chapter

no anal sex. jst she mentioning it.

She's thinking of mc in college life
Feels like an extended epilogue...but I prefer if she goes for another project with different characters and story

college or not there would be angry players. if keeping monogamy while in high school would be tough for mc then near impossible while in college.

Wouldn't have had to get in her pants for her to 'be'.
She certainly would have been in a more believable sense.
Had the ball not been blatantly drop'd.

Some might even suggest, like that of a wreaking-ball.
Related to dialog and events not being believable from early on to EP10.
You are correct though, good things are worth working for.

Meaningful and intimate times don't have to include Sex or lewd events early on.

I don't know if it is because I find I'm able to get hooked / easily entertained onto things easily some people consider bad or just okay when it comes to tv / anime. Or I just don't look that deep into things when it comes to entertainment because of that but I honestly always found her believable to some extent at the very least. Might be because the trauma Erynn suffers from it's easy for me to find some of things believable that others wouldn't. I don't know why I find her believable when others don't to be honest or if it's what I mentioned about earlier about me being easily entertained . Not saying she is or isn't as I believe that is more on a person by person opinion.

I wonder, are the Monroes related to Officer Monroe from "Halfway House"?

He's the final boss.

Nyx should totally do a cameo with him

Absolutely, this is what I meant. Give her an alternative beach scene. All other paths got something this update - Layla (tons), Elena, Alexis, Cara, even Tori!

You won't have this feeling once the game is finished

Joke's on you, I love officer Monroe!

The only way to get Elena route is to be on Layla route and break her heart

Damn, Nyx doesn't play around. I was holding out for a potential throuple got my hopes high with hot tub party. Elena is my no 1 chick in the novel but Layla is a close second. Zero sum for me

yeah I kind of figured it's more cause of me being impatient more than anything else wanting to see what happens next I felt that way.
