I feel more like Vi's protector, so while I definitely don't rule out fun with her, it's not my foremost thought. Ines, in contrast, just hit my eyes and the brain said "too pretty, make babies!"

Having them both would be optimal.

Still surprised that Valentine is so clueless about McNab, though. I called it way back, and I begin to worry he isn't going to get it until there's a naked cock staring him in the face.
I'm a bit of the opposite on the main playthrough I rule out any fun with Vi as the MC sees her as a sister, I'm just not into Ines as well dont want to cause any bad blood between VI and her since VI has a crush on us. I Also rule out Amrit since we are training her and wouldn't feel right to me. But on a manwhore save idc ill go for all of them but I haven't made that save yet.

Here we go again, Dessolos choosing exact opposite of mine. I'd understand everything but ruling out Amrit, really?
She is hot as fuck, practically throw herself on MC, she is hot as fuck, she is casual about it, she is hot as fuck, she is loyal, she is hot as fuck, she is funny, she is hot as fuck, she is lovely with everyone including her banters with Ines. Did I mentioned she is hot? Cute too then on top of that fierce, that's a rare combination there.

it's the fact we are a mentor / her trainer what keeps me from going for her on my main save. Doesn't matter she is hot or not. Unless i misunderstood that part of the story as I do need to replay this game on the next update. As I do feel I did forget a bit of it.

You forgot to mention she is a pain in the ass. I literally shot people I liked more than her.

Nah you are not missing, MC and McNab are mentors of her. Though I don't get why it would be a reason to rule out her?
btw, the previous post mostly meant a friendly jab. Don't take it too seriously. :giggle:

Oh? There was a pegging scene? Missed that I am afraid. :LOL:

Your recollections are correct about the business relationship between the two of them, and that's honestly what prevented me from choosing Amrit's path as well. Her career and success are established immediately as being very important to the MC, so it just made sense to not mix business and pleasure with her. I mean, she's an adult and capable of making mature decisions, so there's no reasonable concern about a "power imbalance" or anything like that. However, starting a romance with her just felt like something that could distract both her and the MC from her training/career, especially given that this is her first relationship and all.

And speaking of Amrit's inexperience in the romance arena, I wouldn't be surprised if playing around with her and then choosing someone else has negative consequences on her fighting career in the story. Anyone who remembers back to their first significant relationship and breakup will understand that it's not an easy thing to manage through emotionally. So realistically speaking, it should be something that a mature MC takes responsibility for when plucking at her heartstrings so casually. Even moreso considering her mother's poor health and the likelihood of losing family soon. I suspect Amrit is going to need a strong support team, and to be at her absolute best, if she is to meet her career goals given the adversities she is facing.

I agree with everything you said but I am planning, at least for my main save, an Amrit ending. That's why I don't see a reason to rule her out. MC will be there for her, for her career, for her family issues, for her love life. I think Amrit will be very good friends with Aoife and Chris. :giggle:

All these folks talking about leaving out Amrit or Vi or Ines: have you heard of the "save" function and "branching"? It's this amazing thing that allows you to play one route with one set of strict rules about "who", and then also allows to you play alternate routes that changes the dynamics and provides for an expanded panoply of interactions with all of the other LIs, and provides you with a means of honoring ALL of the hard work of the Dev. It's almost like magic! ;):LOL::devilish:

that's why I said on my main save I leave them out and manwhore save is for the others unsure if id make a single save or not for them yet. Maybe Amrit cause she is one of the better developed characters imo.

all these folks never played the dev's previous game either, coz more than likely we'll have the same ending here... MC can play around all he wants during the whole game, and at the end he will be forced to make a decision as to who will he end up with. So there is no reason to reject anyone.

I still haven't played it (this one was already to Pt2 or Pt3 when I got into it). May need to go back and grab it - many of the newer things I've picked up lately have been a disappointment and I'm almost caught up on my continuing VNs, except for the ones that I have to replay because the Dev was a bonehead and changed Ren'Py versions halfway through...

I played the Author then decided give it a shot, never regretted that decision. I'd love to have a real life Amrit. Other LIs are all awesome too, maybe just Elspeth is not my cup of tea. ;)

Even tho I like Elspeth alot I do kind of think Kana, Amrit , VI , are better characters than Elspeth atm. As it feels like those 3 just have better character development atm imo and Elspeth needs more unless I just have a bad memory since I did mention I do need to replay this game. I can't even think what I like about Elspeth other than she is smart, and a really hot redhead haha. Just for you when I do replay this game on the next update I won't turn down Amrit and see if I change my mind about having her as a LI or not.

She probably has her own demons but she is too closed to MC which makes me wary of her. She did not give character development a chance tbh. She has fair amount of screen time, we met her father, McNab is one of her oldest friend, MC works with her at veteran centre etc. but she does not share anything about herself and just dodge the attempts.
She is bad news with lots of baggage and filled with uncertainty, also she wants MC with ambiguous reasons not out of love. So if you ask me she is a hard pass.

I actually forgot about some of that yeah I can see why you would say that. I think im gonna wait till more revealed to make a decision on her which is why I been having fun with Kana and her at the same time. But yeah from a character pov Amrit does seem the best so far. I'm just not big on being a lover and mentor but i'm gonna ignore that on my next replay and see if I change my mind. As I find with AVN's alot of time I change my mind on some things the second time around.

The only person in the VN who could feel "love" for the protagonist is Vi, but in a family sense, not a romantic one.

Relationships start based on attraction and not love, Elspeth is attracted to the protagonist, she told him that and made it clear what attracted her, their relationship is natural and real.

All the women around the protagonist are attracted to him, it is wrong to expect them to "love" the protagonist before having a long romantic relationship with him.

Everything you said about Elspeth wasn't what you observed, it was what the characters mentioned in the dialogue during the story, this is the construction of the character Elspeth.

You don't like Elspeth not because there's something wrong with her, but simply because you prefer someone else, if you pay attention, you'll notice that all LI are similar.
