You can choose whether or not to pursue all the potential LIs in Origin Story and the same goes with most sex scenes, other than one scene early on which is mandatory.I get that but I never said I hate harem I just lost interest..but cant just drop the game if the story is good right? Recently I finished Snowstorm's new update and its a harem but I enjoyed it because its well written and the harem makes sense..i only have problem with harem where they just throw girls at you and it makes me no sense to me..if there's a harem where u can choose and reject like Snowstorm I enjoy it and even support the dev if I could
There's also a very compelling story reason for a harem setup to exist, so it's not just "a dozen hot women want a random average dude for no reason." The reason is a big spoiler though, so I'd avoid looking it up until you've played 2-3 chapters.
