Got it, thank you for replying and explaining. Not sure if you'll return again (I hope you do of course) but I will reply anyway.
Hopefully it's partly to do with the Nikki Secret Path? I am looking forward to that tbh.
Shame about the Layla and Erynn combo and I assume you hated how certain things felt. As
LSC82 has said, it's very early in the game if the choice is still after the Erynn reunion at the club to make that definitive choice.
You have almost every reason to hate Erynn at that point in the game, because you've only seen and heard things from the MC's side. While Layla is the cute and fun girl with no drama.
I just feel like many people may end up missing out on Erynn's romantic path completely, which would be a shame IMO as you've done it really well. It's one of my favourites, probably second only to Valeria's.
Full agreement
Nikki and Cara's arrival in MS will be exciting, I'm really looking forward to this part of the story... For me, the club scene at the beginning of the game was a very easy decision. I only chose Layla on Layla's solo route. On all other routes, I chose Erynn.
I'm an Erynn simp these days but playing the game unspoiled my original choice at that moment was Layla.
We only have the MCs memory of Erynn before making that decision, and it's not a very flattering memory...
It takes a while for the truth to come out and for us to discover Erynn...
So it's a choice between a girl that is cute and adorable, and by that point in the game i have been connecting with her for some time now.
And one that (so far) has been portrayed as a bit of cunt.
And while i was curious to find out if she really was a cunt... curiosity isn't enough for me to dump the cute girl for her.
It's a poor spot for a decision this "final".
It's not the best handled combo in the current version of the script, Layla and Erynn are never shown worried or jealous of each other, never come into conflict again after the club.
And like i mentioned before, you only have "dump Erynn" options, no option to get rid of Layla... which makes the thing unbalanced.
Still it sucks that instead of improving and fixing the thing, Nyx is gonna take a butcher knife to it.
I'm the exact opposite. I only pick Erynn there on my Erynn save, because if that was me on a night out, I would feel rude ditching the friends I was out with (and helping the tipsy (or just outright drunk) girls home safely). Anyone should expect Erynn to understand the situation with a quick "Can't stop, will have to catch up sometime later" type quick conversation.
This too, Erynn is at the club "partying"(it's for her crappy job, but we also don't know that), Laylena have an urgent situation happening...
We came to the club with Laylena, it's shitty to leave them when they need help.
And yeah, i feel like Erynn shouldn't have taken this choice as a dismissal of her and understand the situation.
And it shouldn't affect how she looks at the MC.
