hmmm, i guess its in my nature to question things. seems like a good trait to me, but im clearly bias there lol. however, my question was weather the severity of her issues fits what we know about the cause. at no point did i, or anyone else say that trauma was, or even should be non existent. not sure where you got that. all good though.
As i pointed out you can't expect logic from a traumatized person, things that to you may seem "not that serious", "she should get over it" to the person in question can be absolutely haunting.
This game makes no secret on how hurt she still is by this event, the number of time she cries over it, how afraid she is of telling her mom, including John in on the plans... it really hammers home the point that "this girl is traumatized and scared" to anyone who is paying attention.
You repeatedly question the severity of the trauma, you just did it AGAIN (before asking "where did i get that").
So i'm telling you(again) it's a very serious issue as far as she is concerned, it haunts her, makes her sad, depressed and afraid... afraid of many things, even having a happy moment with the MC makes her afraid of what will be the consequences of this, will this event affect their relationship... we just saw Erynn have a huge freak out after the "petting" scene this episode, doesn't get any more obvious than that how afraid this person is.
At this point it's not really up for discussion and you are not bringing any insightful counter arguments... just asking "how serious is it really?" over and over.
I think to be an insightful "question guy" it helps to be well informed(obviously) and honestly the impression i get from you is that you skimmed through things in a rush.
Since you apparently missed all the hints of how truly deeply hurt she is...
And even the correct events of the blackmail.

Would be prudent placing things in correct perspective.
The author has Erynn's path riddled with these inconsistencies.
Don't over examine and judge the character, for the author dropping the ball.
Expect it to happen, as it has often from early episodes onward.
Not exclusive to Erynn, as many here have pointed out accurately.
Expect No Valid relationships dynamics.
Examples can be observed in several instances.
Much like EP5's clothing store relationship milestone.
It's not something easily discarded as though it never happen.
Especially for two as close as they were with their given history.
Couples consenting to BF/GF-status(an item) in public as they did in that scene.
Is not easily taken as a joke(test it with your actual GF) and if anyone has doubt.
Ask 10 mature/experienced Females.
One's don't have to be deeply in-love, for it to be a legit and meaningful event.
It really is a big-deal for guys too, so don't think for one moment it means nothing.
Is logical, especially for those whom have relationships experiences know it's true.
Make no mistake, Not trying to stick up for Nyx(She's GUILTY as ALL Hell).
However, take into account she's got much on her plate juggling things.
Clearly shows in the scripts over what, past 2 years?
Obviously doesn't have the experiences other then trolling for reaction(Drama).
Nyx is guilty.
Laugh at it all and Enjoy the ride just, don't expect any viable logic at all!

Thats the thing, if you missed just some flavor renders, or even lewd scenes I will be ok with that, but you miss a lot of important character development for multiple characters, like in the beach scene this update. This game is chock-full of manufactured drama, but it doesn't trust the player to make it be consequences for player choices, you are more or less strong-armed to play that way if you want to maximize the screen time of your favorite LI in a single playthrough.I personally refuse to be a cheating asshole, so I have lots of saves for solo paths, sue me. If I miss a scene or two that's fine by me
Finally a woman that plays the male main character the same way most males play the female main characters, run them into the most fucked up situations crotch first.

i agree, its a fun game. youre right, taking it too seriously is just silly. tbh, i didnt think i was. all i said is that i thought erynns reaction was odd, and why. im not sure how questioning the emotional response of a fictional charactor ends in triggering LSC82 into an oddly emotional tirade of misused quotation marks but, here we are lol. its why i had stopped responding. i do hope they recover from this "absolutely haunting" trauma in less time that it took erynn though. cheers!Would be prudent placing things in correct perspective.

Ah don't sweat it and i didn't really see it as triggering LSC82, was just more of a conversation in sharing.
Some of us are heavy readers, some not as much and some more often then not.
When things are just out of place/retarded, doesn't hurt to run it past others.
While some writers have a bit more experiences with relationships dynamics, varied trauma.
We can take the flow of things a bit more believable or even serious in some cases.
Not with this title but, who's to say Nyx doesn't improve with future titles?
Can only guess but nothing should stop anyone from enjoying what is or supporting her.
Regardless of how masochistic it may or may not be!
Cheers! I seriously do not understand this gripe about the drama. Drama is drama.
"Manufactured drama." "Illogical drama." "Too much drama."
Show me ANY movie, book, TV show, or ANY social media that does not have this drama. I will take ANY example.
This story is a story about teenagers, most of them women. Show me ANY example of a teenager's life lacking in drama. That IS the story. Why complain about the drama EVERY day? Is there possibly a better visual novel for you? One where you don't complain about what the story is about??
Or, and seriously consider this, just enjoy this visual novel for what it is. There are some legitimate complaints that are wide open. There are a lot of plot points that never go anywhere. Areas where drama is naturally growing. Nyx has chosen to ignore many of those opportunities.
mnotwoke and Bombmaster make some really interesting points where Nyx has laid all the groundwork for naturally occurring drama to bloom. This post and the one above it are great points to ponder. I would love to see something come of this and would love to see that Nyx has this type of story planned.
Notice the entire post is pregnant with drama?
By the way, nice to see someone on this thread has a clue about trauma and how it affects a person.

lawyer doesn't have anything to do with patreon and it's rules.
mostly 1, on 1 path 2 to get other girl's path open but that most likely won't lead to 3some.
Is the beach scene with Alexis, Erynn and Iris bugged or do you have to be on the Alexis path to get it?

Zane was Erynn's boyfriend back in the days while MC was gone and she lost all contact with MC at the time. The real question is whether or not Zane was avare of Ethan recording them having sex.

In my defense, I never proclaimed to be normal. I do enjoy watching the world burn.

there are 3(?) tracks in the game so far, probably more in the future since most people seemed to like them. Club scenes have music, Layla scene has music and there has always been one track when Alexis and Erynn fight early game. Don't remember other instances.
