I think I have similar taste to yours but in my case the only one that I still don't care about is Olive, I just find her completely out of place with the rest of the cast... However, my opinion on some characters improved a lot after episode 2 so who knows maybe episode 3 will do the same.
I don't remember being able to ignore Quinn even if you wanted to be as far away from her as possible either. Aurora's arc seems pretty obvious to me and the MC already turned down Elsa's offer of help so he could deal with it himself. If the blackmail actually comes into play, he'll plot his way out, just like the mock trial. We're only on EP 2 and using Quinn as an example again, she didn't really start her "redemption" (it's not even really one) arc until EP 5 when you find her in the rain. Story just needs to unfold. All of these college style VNs have at least one "huh" plot in them and it's typically better to just let it play out.
I think a redemption path for her is definitely coming, our interactions with her alone have been pretty good, I just have the feeling she is not used to having real friends and maybe Andrea may have been there for her from the beginning and that's why she trusts her but she seems to be a bad influence for her.
It's not gonna take long since we're already working on her. That said, I do think she'll fall on the shark side of things when we start getting locked out of content based on our selflessness stat. She only respects MC when he does things to impress her like winning the mock trial despite her cheating or dishing out during their sex scene.
Caveat: I mostly play selfless paths, so it may impact parts of what I've seen to-date.
Yeah, thats what I'm hoping doesn't happen, but it most likely will.
I remember it being posted earlier. The 9 LIs are Aurora, Danielle, Elsa, Miranda, Olive, Rose, Samara, Sana, and Taylor. Everyone else is side content. I would hope for my OCD sake that it's split 3/3/3, but time will tell. I forgot Miranda was used as an example of neutral, you're right.
I'd be interested to see how this plays out, with the different choices. I definitely didn't pick many selfish options in my save, but I have still had all the scenes with Aurora, so unless it's just dialogue changes, or small variants, there doesn't seem to be anything so far...
I treat it like a certain other college AVN with similar ideas...we're given a chance to taste everyone, and then down the road, we'll get locked out. Entrepreneur started doing it in ep3 but I don't know the scope of Law School so who's to say when. I was full selfless on my first run, and got all the scenes (2 took reloads, being mutually exclusive stuff). I missed 3 images but I was going to wait for another episode before I commit to more routes. When I notice scene lockouts, I'll start to branch out more.
Miranda is the LI shown at the beginning for the neutral path, so she's not going to be on the selfless path.
I am not entirely sure how this selfish / selfless path is going to work, Aurora herself seems to just need a confident person that is there for her but is not scared to call her when on her shit not someone arrogant and selfish that will enable her like Andrea.
Right now that's what it looks like because MisterMaya wants to give us a chance to experience everyone. I think it was explained in the tutorial, how at the start, the stat isn't as important but later on you'll get locked into a route and that will influence which LIs are available, using Olive, Miranda, and Aurora as examples. So for now, you're given opportunities with her but later on lewd scenes will probably be cut off depending on your route, while she still plays a role in the overall plot.
