Sad to see that we won't get a Jane route. Not every girl that appears in games needs to romanced or boinked (Despite my hopes).
I'm sure hoping we do. I like the idea pursuing the older girl who once just thought of us as a kid brother or something, and who we once looked on as impossible wise and forever unreachable. Maybe she was a babysitter, maybe she was a volunteer at a club, maybe she shielded us from bully or teacher or other adult, but somehow she earned our undying adoration. Maybe hers were the first breasts we saw in the flesh and were the center of our fantasies, and even after we got our first girlfriend and her memory fades, they were still the breasts we automatically compare every other pair against.
And maybe it ends well and we gain her true respect and regard as an equal.
And maybe it doesn't, and we're just a fun fuck from a cute kid who never matured in her eyes and we become just a notch on her belt, the knowledge of the difference between how much we regarded her and how little she regarded us stinging forever more.
Jane is an interesting archetype, and one which I think deserves elaboration and exploration. If not on her own route, then as a contrasting stepping stone on another girl's -- old friendships and behaviours versus new. Or the loud, brash, gregarious lover offering adventure versus the quiet, introspective friend offering love.
I think it'd be amusing Jane deciding to seduce us to take our virginity, only to learn afterwards, nope, already gone. So, fine, then first anal -- but nope, Kate got there first. And then she goes on this big list of sex acts, trying to find something she'd be our first at: blow job? Nope. Boob job? Nope. Foot job? Nope. And then, her frustration mounting, we finally admit that, yes, we've actually lying and at least one of those was our first but, hey, wasn't tonight a hell of a lot of fun and please don't kill us? Cue laughter all around.
Anyway, while, sure, I'd like to get into Jane's pants, it's actually thinking of the journeys the author put Nina and Melissa on that makes me eager to discover more about Jane as a character, and not just a cutely rendered 3D model. ;-)
So cheers to the author -- may he keep it up.
