I understand. I struggle everytime that I dont choose Lexi! and choosing Holly solo path is heartbreaking for me!There are some moments that make my sadness worth it, like when MC gave Linda the surprise mushroom stamp.

There are others, but walking past Cece on the way to my future loves instead of taking her to the pool is agony every time.
I understand COMPLETELY Lexi is my favorite LI and I only ever did the Holly solo route once because the betrayal hurts me so much. I also love Kira as a character. After completing all the variations of the Kira route, I feel like Kira is who Cece could one day become. What I mean by that is, in the story right now, Cece is struggling with all kinds of internal shit, but she does want/get help. Kira was in the same boat years earlier, and by the end of the MC/Kira - Chris/Robin ending, she has become this confident matured woman who has a solid grasp on her life and is moving forward. This gives us a glimpse of who and/or how Cece might turn out.Wow, I have to say that this is a really well put story. I love every bit of it. All the characters are so likeable, the mc, the best friend, all the LIs. Every route makes so much sense, it is extremely hard to choose a favorite. But if I have to choose, it will probaby be the Lexi route. In my eyes Lexi is the only one the mc truly falls for during the course of the story, most others have so much history or traumatic events that might influence his feelings, but Lexi really feels natural. While Lexi is my favorite for LI, I feel Kira is my favorite character overall, that scene where she kisses Cece during the confesions gets me everytime, she just has so much love to give. Truly enjoyed getting to know all these characters, very well written, certainly better than most of the garbage hollywood has been spewing out the last few years. By the way, on that after credits scene, I did get the Thanos reference, but didn't get the light in the sky, is that a reference to something or just a cliffhanger for things to come?
The first time I played I felt like crap at Lexi's when Linda confessed her feelings and then the option to choose her was greyed out. I went back and played her route asap. I still love all of the girls in this VN.So I finally did it. Completed a second playthrough. As I said before I really fucked up going with Cece on my first playthrough and I wasn't emotionally prepared to try any other route. I'm not gonna lie. It was hard. I went with Linda because I wanted her to have a happy ending, but that is something I did for her, not me, and if there is a lesson that the game is trying to teach you it is that you can't do that. You have to do what is right for you, and seeing Cece take that bus out of town made me realize that all too well.

Even so, I don't regret it. Linda isn't the one with the rabid following here on the board but she deserves happiness. They all do really, but her story was the one that affected me the most. It is not an insubstantial factor to consider that I think that this is the result that Cece wanted the most. Maybe even more than her own happy ending. Even in the Cece run, I made sure to hook Linda up with Chris. I wasn't going to allow for her to not find happiness, so it was a gift to explore it with her. It was satisfying, but it didn't feel right. I think that it will be quite some time before I try the other routes. I need to sit with this one for a while.
However, playing through to the ending did make me stoked to play U4ia. Either it wasn't there the last time I played or I didn't have the patience to wait until the end of the credits. Either way, I think that I will dip into that before I think of revisiting Leap of Faith. I'm just not ready for that yet. That's what this time around taught me.
Yes, I'm a long-time player of Chasing Sunsets as my signature shouts out. Since this account is shared between a pair of romantic partners we each got to choose our two favorite games to display when we combined our account. The only caveat was that we had to agree. I chose Chasing Sunsets and they chose Leap of Faith. I played it at that time and gave it the thumbs up but it was too emotional for me to play a second time until this week. We do take recommendations from each other even though our tastes are a little different. I did download Artemis today so we will see how that goes but so far U4ia is right up my alley.The first time I played I felt like crap at Lexi's when Linda confessed her feelings and then the option to choose her was greyed out. I went back and played her route asap. I still love all of the girls in this VN.
What you said above sounds like a good plan. Play u4ia. Then maybe play Chasing Sunsets and Artemis which both have LOF crossovers (Jaye on the Pier and DJ Kink in the club) if you haven't played them yet and let that give your mind time to rest, then come back and try another route.
I struggled after playing Chapter 6 the first time. It hurt. I was not prepared and it took a long while before I could continue. In the end, I regret nothing. Cece will always be my number one in any game ever. After the game ended, I took another long pause before I could go back and play the other routes. Like you, I really enjoyed Linda's route. But Lexi is my second favorite. Then Steph and Linda follow. I still have not played routes with Holly, Robin, or Kira because I can't see myself breaking up a happy couple or making Lexi share the MC. I have been assured that those are worthwhile routes to play, and of that, I have no doubt. Drifty created a masterpiece. It is inspirational and aspirational.So I finally did it. Completed a second playthrough. As I said before I really fucked up going with Cece on my first playthrough and I wasn't emotionally prepared to try any other route. I'm not gonna lie. It was hard.

That's a strange way to spell "Lexi", for sure. Lexi is the only sensible choice:
Nothing wrong with that!I may have fallen in love with Lexi, the character, as both the MC and player.
OFC Nothing wrong with that! Cause that will make him stay away from MY Angel CeceNothing wrong with that!

OFC She Is , She is My Beloved Angel Queen but you love lexi , Right ?Cece will always be my number one in any game ever.
No, not actually. You spell it as Cece, C-E-C-E not Lexi. If you can't remember it, it rhymes with coffee.That's a strange way to spell "Lexi", for sure. Lexi is the only sensible choice:
I seriously need more Lexi content, some continuation of her relationship with the MC of LoF. I really wanted to see a wedding scene, some slice of life content with her (like we saw with the MC prior to Cece's second attempt), and some closure for the future, like a family.Nothing wrong with that!
And that was my major concern, her literally becoming an angel. Even at the end, despite the treatment, she seems so despondent. While that's not her fault, I do not think the MC, who himself was previously suffering with depression, should expose himself to such emotional stressors.OFC Nothing wrong with that!
I do not fault her for her illness, it's just incredibly tragic. However, as I have stated above, I do not think it is a healthy thing for the MC to expose himself to, and certainly not in a romatic way. The second time she attempted to take her own life, before the ambiguity of the success in the intermission, I sobbed for ten minutes straight. Even now I'm tearing up thinking about that scene. Prior to Lexi becoming more prominent in my MC's life, Cece was my LI focus. God what a traumatic AVN.Cece is the only choice because no explanation needed, she is just perfect.
I wish I could agree with you, but even the notion of that rends me. I chose Lexi for my sanity, as well as my MC's.No, not actually. You spell it as Cece, C-E-C-E not Lexi.
Cece is sexy and charming, but far too damaged,
I am not sure, feels like you did not stated like that but ok.I do not fault her for her illness, it's just incredibly tragic. However, as I have stated above, I do not think it is a healthy thing for the MC to expose himself to, and certainly not in a romatic way.
Also, what you said here is kinda contradicts with what you say in general. Cece had her problems from get-go. You are saying you did not choose her because of her mental state, then you say she was your LI focus prior to Lexi became more prominent. These two statements contradict with each other, looks like you chose Lexi over Cece then you found an explanation for it.Prior to Lexi becoming more prominent in my MC's life, Cece was my LI focus.
