Yeah exactly.. Id say she's the best character really...the rest all got issues, Rose cheats on her fiancé with the MC, Ida seems to still be hung up on her ex, Mira is too niave and sweet for her own good, Danielle claims to love her bf but she's cheating on him with the MC and Penny is a teacher fucking her student..Naomi is literally the only one who did nothing wrong cause MC was the reason why they broke up, he hurt her for no reason.. If only they made her character model more attractive lol
But I decided to play on two saves tho, one where MC and friends
If only Naomi had a little more love/attention to her model, she'd be irresistible and the logical L.I. choice for me. I agree with your points about Ada and Rose, having major baggage to resolve, and Penny just fits the naughty teacher trope so for those looking for something casual, she's an option there.
I'd say Danielle isn't quite cheating on her boyfriend since technically they broke up/are on a break. It's her stubbornness and not wanting to accept it that led to her spending time with the MC (who's also a friend of hers while her ex's bff) trying to understand or at least get to the bottom why her boyfriend would break up with her out of nowhere (nevermind he's gay but can't come out since it could be disastrous for his dad's political career.). It just so happens if you play her path, which I have, she slowly finds herself falling in love with the MC, someone actually attracted to and genuinely cares for her.
To be honest, I fully expected to pursue Mira at first, but she's just a little too innocent and her personality annoys/irritates me the more time we spend with her. To me she's only slightly more attractive than Naomi so I'm sure eventually I may still pursue her path later on.
Exatcly Naomi is the sensible choice for an LI, plus aside from MC fucking up it seems like they only have good memories together and even in the bad times she was always there for him so they never had any relationship problems before MC fucked up. I doubt the dev would change her appearance lol but one can hope cause that's all we need for her to be the perfect girl.. Im not saying make her look like a goddess or anything, we need to keep it realistic still.
And yeah nobody wants to deal with a girl who's still hung up on her ex, I mean Ada seems great but I'd rather her just go back to Chris if she's gonna sulk over him while she's with the MC. Rose is a cheater yeah but if you on her path you get to see her vulnerable side who's just seeking love and appreciation and not just a cheating fiance but still that counts as baggage I guess
And Spot on with Penny, she definitely feels like a thrope but maybe we'll get to get a more in depth look into her character in the future, you know something that'll make her feel more like a person than a thrope.
I guess if you look at it that way she's not a cheater but still it makes you question her loyalty, I get that her bf hasn't been paying much attention to her when she practically throws herself at him.. But it just makes no sense for her to fight for him and go though all that shit when literally not long after the "break" was implemented she not only kissed the MC who's her bfs best friend but also sucked his dick.. And I know MC and Dan are friends as well but I feel like the kissing and blowing should've been left for her path as a slow build.. Like have her still be faithful to her bf and trying hard to get him back but gradually with time while working with MC to help her bf she starts falling in love with him based on the choices we make obviously(we should have an option to not persue her for those who'd rather not). I did play her path and yeah I know she does fall in love with MC but it just felt rushed like she easily got over her Bf and instantly fell for another dude who's her friend btw.. I just feel like it needed more build before she fell in love with him you know.
Honestly for me I'd say Mira looks better than Rose, I don't know Rose just kinda looks old to me.. When she was revealed as Mira's teacher's daughter I was like how the fuck is that woman her daughter, she looks at least in her mid to late 30s lol.. But that's just my opinion.. And I agree Mira has a suffocating character but then again every VN have that character, the innocent girl who believes in true love and fairytales
I did the smart thing and made multiple saves so I can play out every option or outcome.. So it's safe to say I'll just play everyone's paths lol
