I can't tell with this one either, might be a bug, sometimes she remains available, sometimes she closes despite my interactions with her being pretty much the same...
Elena is so closely connected to Layla that I think what we are going to get is couple of bisexual girls still "figuring it out".
I previously had it remain open but as i managed to squeeze an extra couple of Layla points in my most recent run MC decided it wasn't his business.
I think we' re just getting started) There's still so much to figure out, so many choices to make, more of the difficult ones... So wait for more 3-5 Episodes (no less) for sure untill the final one.
I had 2 pretty similar runs, one i ditched Alexis in the Pizza place, Gabi was availiable after the race.
Not for this story. This would be a typical best-friend's-boyfriend story I guess (hope). As much as I hate to hurt my jealous Lays... But this is only one of the scenarios, at least in a solo path I have a complete idyll with her.
I really hope it's not the case. Want a separate Elena path.
I'm not sure, in all I have 52 Layla pts (I only lost 2 pts since I did lie about the bruises to get more Elena pts and I never romanced Alexis) and I still wasn't on her love route. If that measly one choice blocks me I think it's an overkill. Additionaly if I have to tell Layla the truth that means I'm losing 2 Elena pts and it then becomes impossible to reach 40 Elena pts, which doesn't seem likely to me. Without being on Layla's love route there's 36 pts. for Elena, but I still have toearn a lot of Layla choices, getting 34 pts. with Elena was - at least the way I've played - the only time I could have more Elena than Layla (32) pts. Or maybe instead of patchng the 0.8 that was bugged I should download the 0.8.1 and try it once more.
Same feelings here.
I can recall having this problem (Gabi's second scene not triggering) when loading a save. I had to make a rerun from an earlier point in game (I think from the jealousy scene). Maybe the older scripts changed to set some variables.
Info: The EP7 scene with the spanish test/stealing it/blackmail her was a bit reworked with the new release. Mostly the variable "Gabi_End" was placed a bit different now. So if you following her it's maybe better to load a save before that.
Main problem is that at this point it's very unbalanced, you can be in a commited relationship with a girl or be looking after a girl you just met (or all manner of girls who are still spinning their wheels to varying degrees).
I wouldn't say that game is forcing players into unwanted relationships because there are choices. Like you can choose with which girl you want to start relationship. Also I don't have anything against introducing new characters into the game. In real life you meet new people so I guess that is reflected in the game as well. To me personally it would be boring if everything revolved around couple of characters. Only thing I dislike is that certain characters are over represented, like Alexis or Layla, while others are there but not close to the level of Lexi. Now that's just me.
Lying to Elena is -2 pts, but telling her the truth and going after her is +4, so effectively lying puts you at -6. And since you can only lose a maximum of 4 pts in the first six episodes it is impossible to recover from. Tbh I agree its overly harsh, but its been ages since 0.6 came out so presumably its working as Nyx intends.
Yeah, on my main playthrough I have 38 Elena pts (romancing with Layla, but not on her love route), but I also have a playthrough with 34 Elena and 32 Layla and tbh the latter playthrough seems better to me cause I didn't have to kiss or romance Layla (to me it seems like my MC is purposefully deceiving Layla in order to get closer to Elena when I do all this kiss scenes with Layla). So I hope I still can start solo Elena route (if it's even planned) with 34 pts.
What's wrong with you all who drool on the MC's mom... Please don't spoil the vibe you 'motherfucker' (allegory).
