The library thing killed Rose for me. I understand why the MC hangs out with her (long term friendship, etc) but I don't have that experience and what she did left me speechless.
What do you mean by The library thing? Was it when they went for the job? If so, I don't see the issue. MC told her she could have the job but then when he realized what one of the perks was he decided he wanted it instead or have I totally missed something here?

Yup that's it. Rose knew how important that library access was to him and doubled down on the job instead. If it was any of the other LIs doing it, I wouldn't think much of it since they barely know him. Hell, it's pretty much expected Aurora would do something like that to him just out of spite. Instead, it's a minor betrayal by a best friend, when she's not even going to use the access all that much anyway, since her entire character arc is realizing she's in love with MC, and has nothing to do with law school. If MC had known from the start it was included with the job, he wouldn't have pushed Rose to it. I already wasn't all that into Rose in the first place, so it was just the final nail in the coffin for me.

I really dislike giant inline spoilers but I felt lazy and didn't want to turn it into some kind of classified document.

I still like Rose but holy fuck the Library shit almost made me drop her as a LI , the lunch / dinner date or whatever put just barley back in my top 3 maybe 4th id have to think on it.

Yeah the MC told her she can have the job but this was before he knew he would get access to the library after hours. Which Rose knew is something the MC wanted and cared for and she has shown no interest in. Now when she knows the MC wants that job she won't give it up. To me she comes across as a bad friend and a bit of a selfish bitch in that moment.

I haven't gotten around to playing it yet, but couldn't Rose just give us the library card, or help us get in with her there. It could be a thing where Rose surprises us with it next episode. I am not sure if the pass comes with any rules or such.

But once again haven't gotten around to playing, cause my backlog is big, but just a thought, of how it could go down.

It was mentioned she would get in trouble if caught doing so cause they kind of brought it up Infront of the Librarian

That's certainly a possibility and knowing MC's luck, he'll fail spectacularly at it. He's not the best at sneaking around having been caught before.

Ah, ok. I feel like there will be some sort of work around she figures out, and makes it up to him in that way. Mc obviously cares about the pass, so I feel like Rose will find a way to give it to us, since she has the pass we wanted and we won't get into trouble. So not that big of a deal, cause I feel like it will all work out.

If anything, I was expecting a similar arrangement to Taylor. Rose can't let MC have her access pass, or she'll get in trouble, but Taylor has taken MC in using hers. I assume it's not (technically?) allowed, but maybe Rose will see that as an alternative, he can go in with her but not alone using her pass.

Yeah I just assume they gave Taylor a pass and let that rule slide if they found out cause they have trust her with her being a former student and probably some stuff we don't know about

Taylor will be revealed as the major antagonist in the penultimate episode and attempt to have the MC expelled for multiple library infractions. The final episode will be lawyering his way out of it.

wait there was a famous singer I don't recall that part so I probably just forgot
Miss E, Liam plays her songs on guitar a few times

Also, just played through this, had a great time, I have mixed feelings on some aspects The Entrepreneur, but one thing that can't be denied is MisterMaya knows how to write great characters

Lana is best girl. Question for MisterMaya, one thing I didn't like about The Entrepreneur was the ending being decided by your actions, rather than it being the players agency. Will this VN have the same sort of mechanic or will it be more "traditional" where you commit to one girl?

Default name is MC Smith? Come on. First two names I picked I ran into characters with those names. Just give an option that isn't also part of the main cast. Minor gripe over.

Quick question, what scene is between 'Wet Nightmare' and 'Bedmates' and what is needed to get it? Thanks.

So the three LIs with mysteries, it seems pretty straightforward to me.

Miranda: is Miss E. She lost her voice to an illness recently, and that's why she had to do a career change. She even reacted when Danielle mentioned having rock stars around.

Taylor: her parents died last year. That's why she had to drop out that year, and that's why her parents 'went back to Europe,' to be buried. She's sad and doesn't want to talk about it.

Sana: she's almost certainly the kid of a crime family and Viktor is her bodyguard. I would be happily surprised if that was somehow avoided, but seems very straightforward.


Hard to pick a current favourite LI, which is a good sign (though managing all the branches can be a pain). Lana was an early lead, but didn't really like her character redesign for chapter 2 (or some of the other redesigns), and since then she's treading water in easy lay territory. Rose has that best friend connection, which is a trope that often pays dividends. Mirabella is my current fav of the classmates, just too damn cute and her hair when it's not coiffed is amazing. Elsa has the lead for staff, though Danielle is stepping on her red-head territory, but haven't seen enough of her. Taylor seems like one of the best matches for the MC, values wise. Chemistry seems to be there as well. Samara is hot, but I don't know if she's an LI (same with Fang). Olive dances on that line of adorable and annoying, and I'm not sure which she'll radiate, line by line. But I can see the appeal.

No one else seemed like a good long term option, but they all seem great for a few flings.

It's a game with promise.
