Thanks man! You are very helpful!
I have started over to get a clean run (since I was only Ep2 anyway). I now keep copies of a clean save and persist file for the Ep2, Day1, Bookmarks 0/74 Wednesday 11:00
Saves a lot of tedious start-overs, and that seems to be where the game "truly" begins anyway.
On the beach, when he asks "Go further" your WT says to choose "yes", (the negative choice), "Only once" with the "white dress" to unlock one of the Gallery Thumbs. But what "white dress"? There is no true white dress in Ep2 (there is in Ep1) unless you mean the White/Red Flowers. Assuming the flowered one, is the best time to do this on the first "go around" the first time she wears it, or is it better to take the safe choice the first time and then pick this up the next week when she wears it again.
Sorry for the additional questions, but your one of the most informative one with your answers. I am getting much more familiar with how this game works, I just need a nudge here and there.
