Thar´s why I said strategic decisions. Some event choices count in the background, you do not see it openly. Also the love/rival points make differences. If they are far apart, close, equal or even the rival points in front.Ok, I played the jamal route with both jobs, ended with 10/2 love points with the military job, and 7/6 with the snoop one. I did not notice real differences. I liked the game very much, liked the evolution, in both i manged to have a real loving relationship with her. It just feel wrong to me that in both I did not see much difference, J is not only a gangsta but encourage her to be gangbanged? What the point of him having love points? And has for babies goes you've 2 choices with gangbanged which is a wee bit gross (I tend to roleplay so I cannot imagine doing it, my problem, not judging others' kinks), one where you'll be the father, if no accident with J. the other J. alone (if no accident with MC)? It should be in consideration with LP too, like if J has more than MC she might be his main love and you the side affair... And why not a variation, with them three letting fate decide...
For instance, you can get a nice scene in the club, if you are friends with Jamal, have high love/rival points (7+) and the rival score is temporarly one point (not more) higher than the love score. Or your talk with Mei during the Bahamas holiday is different depending if your love score is higher, equal or lower than the rival score and what you chose during the birthday party.
