Depends if this was Eva aimed when she created him. Particularly, Axel and Seymour are the testament of Eva's great writing in this game for: both are haterful af (and i know this because i hate both so much), but also intriguing.
Ivy isn't interested in Billy, but in what he could offer her for her career. But she's probably bi like Lena
Like male and female general situation IRL. Very realistic writing
Exactly. Knowing he has a girlfriend before flirting with him also makes Lena a big hypocrite, because of what Axel did to her which she didn't get over.
Ivy is clearly interested in Wade. She has mention him a thousand times so far. She likes tall guys who aren't even trying to score or anything it seems. Wade only cares about himself and those videogames he plays. Dude has been dead after high school and scoring with Cindy.Ivy isn't interested in Billy, but in what he could offer her for her career.

Yeah, that's the thing i like about Ivy as character; there's this possibility she's being manipulative but it's perfectly plausible to accept her explanations as true (and the latter would make a nice subversion for the usual hahaha look who's been a blatantly telegraphed villain all along)
Robert is way more sympathetic after the rewrite. I thought his early scenes improved quite a bit.
Of course, Eva Kiss had the United Nations marching between Ashley's legs in GGGB before it was all said and done. It's her trademark.
Yes, I remember learning somewhere along the way Robert was rewritten to be more tolerable, but when I did a new playthrough for ch10 he still seemed pretty icky if Lena sleeps with him. If she doesn't he can be a little more decent to her about job stuff, though of course Seymour will get her fired regardless.
...I have only played this game after the rewrite and that's where my opinion stems from. If he was even more of a creep before... just, eh.
No, they hate him because he is a shit character, poorly written and at this point in the game he is as useful as tits on a nun.
Agree 100% on that being who Robert is. That's why I want to see the awkward sex with Robert and Holly, and then him being a whiny jerk afterwards - because it could lead to Holly going to Ivy and telling her how bad it was, and then we'd get to see Ivy instructing Holly in the ways of mercilessly dumping a boytoy. "And when he's starting to sob, and you can see a little teardrop forming in his eye, you bitchslap him across the face, like this!..."
I "blame" Eva. Look at Lena's options.
At least Jasmin was actually skilled in bed instead of "dildo boy" Jeremy.
Doubtful, since if she was, Ian would have had issues with meeting Billy at Ivy's Party.
Your not wrong. Romance wise, Lena has complete shit in choices other than Holly, Ivy, and Ian. Which is a testament on how much of a joke Eva is writing romance this time around. I mean really... Robert is forgettable from day one. Mike is just a dildo to cheat on. Axel is stalking shithead who can't take the fucking hint that it's over. Seymour just want to make her a sex slave. Jeremy is just a fetish kink. Then you have... Stan... Never mind that, you don't have Stan.I "blame" Eva. Look at Lena's options.
Robert was a pathetic blackmailer.
Mike is a cheater.
Lena's ex is a stalker and a manipulative sociopath.
Seymour is a sociopath with more money.
Jeremy is pretty much a walking dildo.
I mean they are likely great options for some corruption route but romantic route is pretty much Holly and Ivy for Lena since i prefer Ian to have his own romance apart from Lena.
At least Jasmin was actually skilled in bed instead of "dildo boy" Jeremy.
I think Eva get too much shit than she deserves. Writing a story with two protagonists and infinite amount of choices would take a a lot of time to flesh out. Her best choice, for now, is to hire more writers to help her cause I think. Not sure about her patreon situation though.
IIRC Ian doesn't know who Gillian's boyfriend is. Billy is a very unlikely candidate, though -- Gillian's boyfriend moved to town a few months ago because he's found a job here, and that doesn't really fit Billy's circumstances.
That would be one hell of a coincidence if true. Then again the whole running theory of Mike being Gillians boyfriend is possible, though I would say its 50/50 on either Mike or Spike, which I feel like would add far more intrigue and possible drama, specially on a Lena route.
