You know that Ian's manuscript of the book is ready, right? He can just use that to lure investors if he wanted to. He went there to get an experience and how is making new contacts not beneficial? Though I agree with you that EK could've handled the dates separately for both paths instead of gatekeeping with one or the other choices.
I actually like that you have to navigate that kind of choice. I think it makes the game more interesting to replay, that you can't just get everyone all at once.
How many girls are stalked by 1. a millionare who owns half the town and can take your job if you oppose him, 2. a toxic ex who is a rich, well connected photographer willing to beat you up?
Exactly, I am actually content with the pathing that EK laid out for us. Some people just want to get it all like Pokémons.
I imagine that the number of 1. is quite low, but I wouldn't be surprised that if 1. is true then the chances of 2. in correlation would quite high, so long as you remove the "photographer" part. Well connected people are often connected to each other and rich people tend not to like being told no anyway.
Yeah, sure, but the player decides what she accepts or not and how Ian reacts to it.
Lena doing Pikachu cosplay when?
Hyperbole much? Only depending on your choices.
I think what Gicoo means is that regardless of choice Lena will always be a complicated date because of the people around her. Seymour will always have interest in Lena for whatever reason, Axel's always her ex and always a toxic presence, even if you minimize their interactions. So there's some automatic drama to dating her, even if Lena does all the right things to be a loyal and monogamous girlfriend.
Mhm, that'll probably be easier to judge when the game's done. With how toothless both Axel and Seymour have actually been so far, my thought is that Lena is very much worth it. That is, assuming the game state in question is one where she makes all the choices to be a good gf and avoid the optional parts of said drama.
And that is pure opinion (wrongly imo). I disgree completely...all depends on your route doesn't it.
It isn't an opinion that Lena is hounded by Seymour and Axel, has relationship, work and money issues, toxic friends, a stressful family that missuses her money. Its an observation. One that people seeking for a potential girlfriend do, whether they are conscious of it or not.
Maviarab was more likely stating that Lena's relative worth is an opinion.
yes, i made ian himself to give mr ward the manusript and nothing happend (he didnt read) so i have reason to say, it is nothing, not a finished book. still in my head about get new contacts
but for now, (leave your friends and) lose Cindy without reason (as ian say, yesterday she sent nude and now dont even speak. i didnt do anything wrong against her) or drop out Holly without reason (and your career) (as ian say, we can do it another time. but as you said, NOTHING will happening in next 5-6 chapter, but little flirt, i didnt do anything wrong against her)
But there is a reason, it's just narrative. If you choose the book fair Cindy sees it as abandoning her plans and she then sees you as unreliable for her desires. If you choose the birthday Holly sees it as rejection and stops really trying to get with Ian because of it.
Not really.
with cherry and alison at bar it is totally understandable.
Also this one is pretty common, plenty of people have family issues.
if we speak about narrative
Well, Cindy's seen you reject her once and apparently that closes her off for that. Perhaps Eva will entertain a future chance like with Holly, but my assumption would be that, that would come after Axel's reeled her in and at that point some people might see her as "spoiled goods" I guess.
Well, because Ian doesn't really see Holly as girl to pursue in a sexual or romantic fashion. That's why another shot of that first reason is probably coming up now that Holly can be a more outwardly sexual individual, Ian notices it.
yes, kind of reject cindy, but i am sure ian dont try fix it, give up without i choose give up or leave her
