She wasn't! She slept with her then boyfriend.
Seriously. Where do people come up with this shit all the time? Probably skipping all dialogue so they can see the "spicy" scenes or not playing at all and just joining in conversations to feel important.

I tried to read the posts since the update so I don't repeat things, but I kinda gave up and I'll ask for forgiveness if I say some things that are already talked about!
So, first off all, I've been disappointed with the last update for 2 major reasons:
1. The backstory feels REALLY long, when that time should probably go to moving the story ahead. This backstory didn't give us any new information on MC or Iris, it just show us what we already kinda knows: She's the 1st girlfriend who "helped him become who he is" (and that John is f'n awesome).
2. I really, realllllly HATE when a MC act dumb just for the sake of the storyline. The WHOLE storyline with MC/Zach/Ethan was sooooo dumb. Why didn't MC told ANYTHING to "defend" himself in front of Zach? Ethan should get an Oscar? Fuck no, MC should receive a lemon award for worst interaction with an enemy. Why didn't he tell Zach to ask Eryn/Alexis who was bullying who in the past? Or that he left town in part because of him. Why didn't he tell him that Ethan wasn't "flirting with a girl" but physically harrasing Eryn (someone who Zach LOVE very much)? At least, it would've made sense if Ethan whispered in MC ear that he would show Eryn video if MC contradict anything he will say (at the beginning, while Zach talk to the other guys of something like that). MC would've had a reason to be unable to react to any BS thrown to him.
Also, why would we get friendship points with Zach if, in the end, he will always side with Ethan and punch MC? Even if Zach apologize in the future, he cross the line too much in that moment. I feel like Nyx kinda gave up on Zach and will bring back the other friend from the past, since he was shown a lot in this episode (part of the backstory that felt really long. If he comeback, that backstory wouldn't just be for Iris and could make more sense).
I'll try to wrap it up quickly with 2 "theories" that I've seen people talk about:
Eryn's fate: It really feels like a red herring. Eryn story is far from over, so it's pretty much sure she isn't dead. Also, I doubt the game will include a forced rape storyline, that's an HEAVY decision to make that could make people lose interest in the game (since it's not that kind of game, and it's pretty much unavoidable). My guess? She's been drugged BEFORE the show by Ethan so she made a fool of herself at the show and lose credibility. Ethan is seeing that he's losing grip, even with the video treat, so he might just want to make her desperate for opportunities.
John/Iris/Eryn connection: I've seen a lot of people basing this assumption only with the desctiption for Eryn's father being a "blond, tattoo'ed, viking type", but we also have to read between the line and what would make a good storyline. We know that Iris have a crush on Eryn. Iris is someone who love herself, she know she's beautiful, so it would make sense that someone with half her blood could be her type. On John side, he seem to get along really well with Emily, and it's kinda hinting that they might go out to get a drink, or at least there's some interest. Imagine Emily coming back from a date with John and bumping into Melissa? That's the kind of drama that make good story. And it's not like he broke Melissa's heart, so I'm pretty sure she would even be happy for Emily, or at least not angry. And it might be the opening MC need for a moment with Melissa, if she feels alone while her best friend is dating her "ex".
Also, someone said that Melissa would've talk about him to Emily. But she already got Eryn at this point, so the father was someone from 1 year prior to their meeting. They didn't have cellphone or social media in that time, so how would she describe him so perfectly that Emily would recognize him 20 years later? And if Melissa didn't want to talk about the father, since he isn't important for her and Eryn, Emily wouldn't push her to have any details. So it make 100% sense that Emily would've 0 way to connect John with Melissa/Eryn.

Mainly Nikki, Cara and Iris, but most girls have some scenes.

Anyone knows How to date alexis and Layla? What about steam The tests from Gabi?
[/QUOTE
Alexis you can date after the plane incident later when u meet her in the bar where she works.
Always be nice and forgiving and talk to her or grab/hug her during the story development then she will be a faithfull romance till end of chapter 9.
The enveloping story/history between Alexis and MC if u choose her as real girlfriend is also the most logical and detailed written one in this game so far and also the most lovely and romantic one til the actual final chapter. I think Nyx the Dev must also like Alexis very much...
Layla is currently only an option for flirting and teasing but not available for a relationship deeper than friendship.

Its time for the MC acts like a man and start to defend himself. Im getting tired of how MC is pushed and hitted and he dont do anything about it.
What this story needs is less drama and some closure to some of the story line - we keep getting more and more drama which really does nothing for the story, also we should be told if this is a harem story or not - too many LI.
Erynn was a LI of the MC way before any of the others thus we should get this story cleaned up and soon or many may loose total interest in this

Probably my fault for mis-remembering that apartment scene a few hours after this update dropped. I was corrected a few posts later but it was already too late. Sorry man lol.
The game has never been a harem at any point.
Every update usually has a near dozen situations in the script to end routes if you're sleeping around.
Hi
OMG, the only update v0.9 is 2.44GB !
Thx for doing a only update version (I asked for it quite long ago and now I'm happy to have it!)

i also suggest to give being with Alexis as girlfriend a try during chapter 9. She has really very romantic and lovely scenes and the best background history for being Mc's girlfriend of all females currently in the game. In chapter 9 u will als meet Iris on a very special way again which is i think by far better written and staged than at other love interests. I tried all others and think with Alexis the whole story makes just mor sense and its also more detailed without any logic missing. I start to believe that Alexis is also the favorite character of the dev...
So i suggest to open a save file and get Alexis as GF and experience the story til final chapter.
Very good - but how do you choose with all these girls - and now Erynn who might be a main choice is MIA

Did anyone else get the ending where Valerie came to help MC and kicked Ethans balls instead of John?

She wasn't forced, she had sex with her boyfriend and Ethan says he has a recording of it.
I will admit the plot line surrounding it is really dumb in my opinion for this reason....
She is being blackmailed because she wants to be a teacher and if her sex tape got out it would ruin her chances .... so she's being blackmailed into escorting the rich clients Ethan asks her too which would also ruin her chances if it got out.
She has more chance of shutting the blackmail down, because it's an actual crime, whereas escorting is more likely to ruin any chance she has of being a teacher so she's causing more harm than good.
This after the game tries to tell us how intelligent she is and her falling for, arguably, the dumbest blackmail ever because she hasn't even verified the existence of said sex tape.
Also she knows Ethan is trouble, she knows he's been getting more aggressive and she still puts herself in the position to be in where we are now.
So, 2 things are possible here. Either her plotline is dumb on purpose because she's being killed off and it won't matter OR she herself is dumb and falls for the most basic of shit.
1 thing I want to put on record is I love this game. My comments about dumb plotline ONLY counts towards Erynn. She is, by far, the single worst "love interest" in the game (term used loosely because i'm not convinced of her survival ... by all rights she should have won a Darwin award by now) and the fact I have to keep her happy to stay on my Lexi route got on my rather adorable tits.
I can ignore other LI's but i've had to follow this ridiculous blackmail nonsense and her headache enducing thought process of "I can't let a sex tape of my college days filmed without my knowledge and against my will get out because that would ruin my chances of being a teacher .... so now i'm working as what is essentially a high end escort which is far worse but i'm blonde so that's my logic".....
I love the game and I love 99% of the cast I just can't . stand . Erynn.

Depending to your previous decissions there is a lot of content for Cara or Nikki. But there is also fixed content about history of MC and Iris. And depending if u enter chapter 9 in a solid relationship with Alexis there are also very romantic and lovely scenes.

Same way you choose in real life when presented with multiple options... Who do you like best and who do you think is the most viable long-term?
You say Erynn, and I like Erynn, but Alexis still wears the crown imo.
