I've been playing this game for 3 years and still only have one playthrough.

Seconded in its entirety (or whatever person I am in the ranking of people who've probably completely agreed with this)Games that try to force more than one playthrough especially feel like a chore if the only difference is that on play 1 you get girl A, but on play 2 you get girl B. And that's what most non-harem games end up like. You went with girl A to the cafe in that run, but the movies with girl B in this run! So different,
Even AAA games with millions of dollars and teams of devs that have multiple endings often only get played once by most players. Statistically most players don't replay games that are story based (Edit: or any games really, even strategy game like Total War and such often don't get the majority of players to keep playing them after beating a campaign with one faction). Not to mention that even those can botch the ending being different, relatively even in gratification, and all are impactful. Looking at you Mass Effect 3. And even story games that do have dedicated player bases, like Skyrim, most players replay and make the same choices because those are the choices they like, the story they want is the same, they just try different builds or challenges, and they may have never even tried a different ending or choice in a story moment.
But some AVN devs seem to think that they will make girl B's date at the movie so meaningful and so different from girl A's date at the same movie theater (since its the only daz asset they probably have
And all of that is before even get into what FatGiant brought up.
This is how a lot of non-harems just play like harems for a huge chunk of the game. Which on one hand makes sense, the devs want you to have seen all the girls before you pick one, but they also feel like they each need a sex scene too because they see AVNs as porn often (which they aren't they are erotica), which ends up giving an incongruent experience. And it ends up begging the question of why make the player pick just one girl after that? They always give excuses like "realism," or "character reasons," but you already violated both of those by having the "Try before you buy" experience in the first place. Most guys irl don't get to fool around at the same time with 4+ (let alone the higher numbers that some games that still force a choice have) girls and then pick one like that, and most chicks aren't going to be down for that either if they aren't down for that, as in if they wouldn't also be fairly easy to convince that they should just keep the same status quo going since it works. Most guys are lucky if they can get one girl at a time. Especially in the modern era where a lot of chicks are using aps and something like 80% of chicks are hooking up with 20% of guys and about 60% of guys between 18-30 are either virgins or have only had 1-2 sexual partner their whole life. So, if you've got the Mc that can land more than one chick at a time anyway, and you've chicks that are already willing to be in a de-facto harem anyway for much of the story, then why wouldn't you just have a harem route?
Anyway, ramble over,

Yeah, when the franchise is done I'll only have 2 playthroughs: Everyone and no one. Simply for two reasons:
1. Currently there are is a steam achievement for both in season 1 and I'm pretty sure the same will happen in future seasons.
2. It seems both are necessary to get all gallery scenes in the fastest way if you're not cheating.
However until the franchise is over, of course I'm on the Everyone-path

Guess I am weird. If I really enjoy a game I will replay it even if it has a gallery. My Dorm is one of those on my list that is replayable as much for the story and the girls as the adult content. I am on playthrough 4 I believe for My Dorm. But then I have a lot of free time as well atm.
(edit) Same choices each run by the by... full harem

Not weird at all, if you have the time to do it, do it. For me the problem is lack of time.

Same here, I've dropped several VN's the last year (mostly non Harem ones) because of lack of time.

And here I am on the other end of the spectrum - I have trouble finding new games to play (that are harem or pseudo-harem anyway). Maybe a case of too much time on my hands, though it never feels that way. I also stick with RenPy games - Unity and RPGM don't often work well or suit my tastes, which might be narrowing my choices.

I don't like grind. I have abandoned several games because of this. I didn't have enough patience and it took too much time.
Dammit, this just makes me wonder why there isn't a young Natalie Portman LI in MD.
Maybe not Léon young...but I wouldn't hate a sassy Beautiful Girls-ish version...
We all are. You are among friends here.

I always liked Natalie's physical form, but she comes off a bit... aggressive? Judgmental? Aloof? Hard to approach? Perhaps it's just my impression of her and how she presents herself, but I always thought a more demure Portman would have been very attractive. I'm not too big on the sassy part myself.Dammit, this just makes me wonder why there isn't a young Natalie Portman LI in MD.

The only female LI type I would have liked to see in MD is someone heavier on the Goth theme - beautiful colored tattoos, less but still evident piercing, perhaps hair cropped tight on one side with a carved bit of art. Someone who stands out, has a deep and interesting personality and history, a bright and sharp mind, but who doesn't clash with everyone around her.
Having said that.. Erika's beautiful and has -some- ink, but she's not very deep into the Goth style. I always found full-body tattoos with color to be very erotic, and tightly-cropped hair on one side to be sexy. Doesn't even have to be jet-black hair; variety is the spice of life.

I'm not too much into big tattoos. Erika is the limit of what I consider attractive. Maybe a full sleeve at most. I also prefer single-color black tattoos. There will be more tattooed girls in My Dorm, besides Erika.
About the side-cropped hair, I learned to hate asymmetric hairstyles. I think My Dorm plays (correctly) with the facial expressions of the girls, sometimes saying things that their words don't say, and giving them another layer of depth. With asymmetric hairstyles, I should lay out the scene well in advance if I want that expressiveness to be in the scene. If Debbie or Norah are on the left of the scene and talk with the girl on the right, their hair will cover their face from the MC's perspective (camera). If Debbie and Norah or Erika are in the same scene, one of them will be on the left side with her hair covering her face.
There are some good side-cropped hairstyle assets. I bought some of them and never used them. The good ones are a pain to work with and have the issue of asymmetry.

Interesting you have your limits on both tattoo size and black only. My absolute favorite LI from *any* AVN ever had a full body color tattoo that was unbelievably attractive. It ran down the side from shoulder to thigh, and even covered a good bit of her back. Part of it was translucent green/blue fish scales, part was yellow and red art, and part had black tracings to emphasize the colors better. Medium but slender build, perky C- cups, and slightly tanned complexion. I can't recall the name of the game, but she's never left my head. I must have viewed her scenes a dozen times or more. If I manage to think of the game, I'll try to grab a screen.
As for the hair, I understand that can be jarring for some. But it does bring them a singular type of unique presentation that's not easy to forget. And yeah, the scene posing could be more difficult, unless the hair on the other side didn't fully obscure their face. On that note though - that leads to other interesting poses, like her ability to hide her expression just by turning her head a little. Overall, the asymmetry is part of the charm I find; it's like the tattoos in that it lends yet one more "personal customization" to the person's look, and I can see why a lot of women with ink would opt for it.

Tattoos (IMO) come down to how good the artist is/was.
