Not necessarily, I can see the appeal for going for someone Like Lexi. The center stage slightly awkward girl. And I certainly get that Cece certainly won't appeal to the masses.
And on some level I do kinda go for Kira and/or Robin as mostly unattainable types, there's definitely and huge appeal there. Hell, even Stephanie on some masochistic kind of angle.
But my first goto will mostly be a Cece-like character. Because of some events in my late teens I was faced with a similar situation with my best friend at the time. And After all these years I still can't shake the fact that I never saw the signs he was dropping to me and his GF. And neither of us saw a single clue. Until one evening after work, coming home to worst news. And without dragging this out more than necessary, every now and again I'm haunted by those memories. No matter how much I know that I shouldn't blame myself for it, those feelings of failure always linger and return.
Playing this game the first time last year, was such a gut punch. But on some weird level, it's almost therapeutic to play Cece's story path. I do love all other characters in the game, but, in essence there you have it.
