Lena being a hypocrite isn't a problem; I only hope that it will have consequences at some point. Perhaps a big blowup of all the shady stuff Ian and Lena did would be followed by the apparently planned timeskip, where we can see the consequences play out.

I started writing a response to this, but realised I was just repeating my previous posts, and Echbert's post did a good job summarizing what I might have added anyway. So instead I'll point out what I think is the weakness about Lena's confrontation with Ian about Holly, which I suspect is part of why you and others have disliked it.
The Ian/Holly book fair hotel scene can play out the way it does because of a few requirements. 1) Lena doesn't tell Holly that she's involved with Ian (and Ian doesn't either), 2) Ian doesn't fully realise how infatuated Holly is with him, and 3) while Holly suspects that something's going on with Ian and Lena, she's still unsure enough about it to make a move on Ian.
I think at least the first two requirements aren't fully realistic. Realistically I think Lena would have told Holly about it, especially when she knows they are going to the book fair together, because she knows from early on that Holly's got feelings for Ian. And in a lot of other situations Ian is or could be played way more attentive, so I find it a bit strange that he doesn't fully see the extent of Holly's feelings for him. His whole beginning relationship/affair with Cindy is mostly based on him being way more observant and attentive when it comes to Cindy's feelings that anyone else, especially Wade.
But if Lena or Ian told Holly that they have something going on, or if Ian realised how head over heels in love Holly was, the scene between Ian and Holly probably wouldn't happen. So with how everything has been set up until then, Eva's hands are a bit tied when it comes to ways she can write the scene.
It's not realistic that every scene will be solved perfectly in a gigantic, fast-paced story like this, but in this instance it's more obvious because of the confrontation afterwards. The scenes where Ian and Lena have serious, important talks, are probably among the most difficult to structure writing wise, because you can only control one of them, so the reaction of the other person will necessarily be out of our control, and instead be based on how they would most likely behave based on how we've played them until then. During the relationship talk in chapter 9, I think this is solved better (the only thing that's out of our control, is Lena's decision that she won't enter a relationship with Ian if she's had sex with Jeremy, which I think makes sense). But while I think it's obvious to us as players that Ian acts a bit shitty if he sleeps with Holly when he's involved with Lena, I doubt most players expected the outcome to be completely out of our control.
I think that could've been a bit clearer if we'd gotten some additional reminder that Ian goes behind both Lena's and Holly's backs if he chooses to have sex with Holly. Off the top of my head: If Ian suddenly had gotten a phone call from Lena when he and Holly were in the hotel room, and Holly noticed this and asked who was calling, we could've gotten the choice between telling her it was Lena (leading to Holly losing her courage and asking Ian if there's something going on between them, ending the chance of them having sex), or downplaying it as "nothing important" (meaning Ian is actively holding back the information about him and Lena to make sure he's not losing the chance to sleep with Holly). That would've made Ian's betrayal a more active choice, and Lena's reaction would probably have felt less surprising in the next chapter. (But it's easy to throw out random solutions or suggestions to improve the story, it's something completely different having to implement that into the gigantic web of choices, variables and plotlines the game consists of.)
Edit: Sorry about the wall of text, again. I need to work on being brief.

That is exactly what I am talking about. I went in a path caring for lena, and even in that path she would also have a thing with louise, she had kissed holly. etc. When she ended her fling with Ian because of holly. I decided to make another path to see how she reacts. This other path, she goes for mike and that gf conversation, she sucks Jeremy and after that keeps having sex with him. and has sex dreams with Axel. In this second path, I only didnt go for the guys who were trying to force her or trick her into dating/having sex with them (Robert, Axel and Seimour). And she acts the same way with Ian. When lena ends things with Ian in this path, and Ian tells Holly that he has nothing serious with Lena, it is just sex and he is still single. She is relieved with that because before he told her he didnt have a girlfriend, that doesn't mean that he isn't having sex with other girls, and she totally understand that. Being in a relationship with a girfriend and being single having sex life it is 2 different things, and holly knows that. Holly also tells at some point when with Lena and Ivy that one of her fantasies is having a 3some. In this path after Lena ends things with Ian, Ian is only fucking 2 girls at this point, Emma and Holly.
As we all agree with it not being bad writing. Lena is just being hypocrite on my opinion. Specially with Mike and Jeremy situation, but specially with Jeremy who is Ian's friend.
Bro I am not complaining. I am just stating the fact that she is an hypocrite when she is in the SAME situation as Ian and that IS a fact. And for Lena being in the same situation and being an hypocrite about it, I decided to let her go on my gameplay (not really my decision but if it was she was gone too
) There were many conversations about what I said (here in this forum), but my point of view won't change, because it was my gameplay. I played her being a nice girl avoiding all guys around but Ian and another path where she would have as much fun as Ian. But in this second path,Ian accepts her and she doesn't accept Ian. And they are both in the same situation. <- all this here, is my opinon about lena. You don't have to agree, I just decided to talk about it here in the forum, because I had other plans for Ian, Holly and Lena, but apparently it is not the way the story goes.
As much as the decisions you make with every character, the cards you pick are also very important to the way the story goes. in my story, Ian will end up with Holly and Lena with probably no one. Ian was the only nice guy around her and she decided to take the situation with Holly in a wrong way. And Holly, different as many people say, she is an adult and know what she is doing. She is shy, she doesn't speak up, but everything she did on my gameplay, she knew exactly what she was doing and wanted to do it. Because when Ian goes with her to her event, she is the one kissing him first, knowing he HAS some flings and is NOT interested in having a girlfriend at the moment.
she chose to be on that situation, no one led her to do that or forced her to do anything. Ian was completely honest to her, then they have all sex activities and she says "I wish you told me sooner", He did tell her, he just didnt go into details of who he was going out with and what they were doing. But even so, She accepts him and will continue to see him. So, ofc, she is a keeper. Depending on how Eva will write the next episodes.
I never said it was wrong. and it wasn't fun. I am having fun, loving the game. Just, in my personal desire as a player, wish she didnt take it the way she did when she is in the same situation as Ian. This discussion will only keep going, if people keep trying to change my mind on what I think and how I wish it was written. We all have our personal preferences and freedom to speak up about what we would like to see happening with every character. That doesn't mean, the game isn't fun or anything is wrong.

I don't expect you to change your mind about it! I enjoy the discussions even though we don't agree. Just wanted to point out some of the reasons why Lena reacts differently to Ian having sex with Holly than with others. It's completely legitimate to dislike her reaction and/or our lack of control of it. But I suspect we can expect more hypocrisy from both Ian and Lena as the game goes on

I agree with pretty much all of that, and would like to add that I was also a bit frustrated that she blows her lid a little even if Ian only kisses Holly and then comes clean with her. Yes, I know Lena forgives him later, but it still seems like a massive overreaction.
First off, it was just a frigging kiss, a secondly I felt a bit pushed into it as a player. They're having a nice conversation, he says something supportive to her, and next thing you know they're kissing. I do think one additional choice to pump the breaks there would have helped a lot. Holly leans in and kisses him, and he can either kiss her back or not.
Again though, I totally agree that Lena's reaction to all this is all about Holly, not herself.
I just want my Ian Lena Holly threesome, dammit!
yep Lena is a hypocrite alright but I dont care since Im playing her as a slut. She bangs any many guys as she can on my playthrough and Im loving it. On the other hand, I absolutely love Ian's story and I actually care about his choices. Alison, Cindy, Cherry, Emma, Lena, Holly, all girls feel very distinct. Not to mention Jeremy's videos is one of the hottest aspect of the game, which gives me a reason to play a cuck Ian.
Jeremy and the ladies lol dude barely gets any pussy look how afraid he is to make a move on lena ,ivy is just toying with him while she's hooking up with some rando from the club and then Alison only goes to him as a second choice and she had to do all the work cuz dude was busy playing with the phone

Agree.
Ian is more ladies man than Jeremy despite the fact that he's more introvertic type of guy.

Alison, Minerva, Cherry, Emma >>>>>>>>>>>>> Cindy
Also, Lena kinda sucks. Girl's either a normie or severely fucked up. And she's the least hot.
