Hey Inceton, It was my fav. Episode of all, altough I get the points of other users who are criticizing about the game pace, it was very interesting to see a deeper level of char. Development, mainly Nicole and Ellie. It was nice to see MC developing some maturity and acting in a less stupid and more human way, his actions made more sense than getting drunk at the party and fucking up with everything in S02 e01.
It really surprised the plot direction of something more mature for the game, but its a choice that really made me like the game more, hope you dont dismiss this direction because of any reproval.
I agree. This was, more or less, the same premise in
Groundhog Day. Phil wasn't able to move on until he'd become unselfish and learned to completely commit to a relationship. In
Echoes of Lust, it seems the MC will continue to repeat each day until he's matured enough to move forward.
In season one, it seemed to be he was meant to learn to be a less selfish lover: to invest in actual relationships and to give women what
they want instead of demanding things be his own way. In this season, it seems he's supposed to learn actually to invest in a relationship and not just get attached sexually.
The most recent advancements show the MC getting much deeper than he's been so far in the game. He even has a moment where he starts telling himself to stop being so uncaring. In a different way than Phil, but the MC here is also changing into a better person.
