It doesn't and they aren't. I think you are literally the first person I've seen complain about this.
Found a couple just using that particular word in the Search bar.

Oh well, whatever, that was my only 'complaint', the rest is perfect for me so far.

The choice paralysis is strong here. :ROFLMAO:

How fast am I locked out of routes? I just want to date around on my first playthrough and get to know everyone and commit later.
I'm trying to remember if you lock into anyone at this point... most of them were just going on dates if I recall correctly... were they not? I'll have to fire this one up again. Been a bit behind on the refreshes with so many other game updates released before Christmas.

I also just started this game and would like to know this as well. I just did the first date with Julia and im wandering if i date one girl are others going to be locked out in some way or can i date all LI's and then decide at some point? If i have to commit to one then my obvious choice is going to be Olivia, because redheads with green eyes are my weakness, i just can't resist :giggle:

I've been running URM just in case but so far, outside of the occasional "do this with this person or go do that with that person" I haven't ran into any character lockouts. There was a sex scene with Cynthia that prevented me getting a point with Olivia (I mention that because of what you said). I just started chapter 2 and I would not want to be in his shoes.

I see, i will keep an eye out for that then especially since i would like Olivia to be my main focus on my first playthrough

I think Oliva and Julia if not already locked will in the next episode as they run into each other during Oliva's date. So I imagine they will be some questions they have cause if I recall if you are on both of their paths and you are on the date path for Oliva they spend time talking to one another alone.

I don't even know how to begin to type this, I think I'm still having mini convulsions from laughing. I'll toss it in a spoiler box to be safe but I imagine anyone reading this is probably ahead of me in the story.

Wow that was good to get off my chest. I blame any typos on post laughing fit or just me being a dumbass.

Welcome. I guess you see why I rate it so high. :)

One thing though. How can you possibly say no to Michelle, the girl is a goddess. :love:
(Just joking, everyone has different tastes, you do you).
And that's good advice - Beware of Samsung (especially on Saturdays). :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

wouldn't recommend mixing them up honestly, some already have crossed paths and it won't turn out well. Just pick your favorite and stick with her, then go to the next one, that's what I did. Needs a few playthroughs but you can speedrun them.

I'm honestly not trying to cheat on anyone but they toss that Julia date at you so fast, it's before I even get the chance to meet others. She's definitely top tier but I also didn't want to lock in early in case someone else surprised me (like Miranda in Law School). When forced to choose, I'll choose, just wanted more to work with than some peeks in the gallery first.

I get that, I went with the Julia date without a second thought too the first time, but as new chapters released and new characters came into the picture I started making new saves where I only went after one of them at a time, coz this ain't a harem game, and for a while I'm sure you can juggle some girls but eventually it will come out and you could lose all of them and then that save is fucked and you have to restart anyway.

In the upcoming reworking of the first chapters, the introduction to Julia will be longer before we go on a date with her.

That's what I also hoped, kept the door open for each of the LIs (managed to miss a picture and a solo scene with Keyla though, don't know how), but when I saw Julia in Olivia's art scene, oh no... and the scene happened, and yeah, the 'oh no' intensified, especially the way they looked at each others. Reminds me of Veronica in Race of Life to some extent (although in her case, she's -very- clingy). Hope there's some failsafe somewhere, things are happening fast with some, while others are pretty much at the start of their paths. But then, I can always replay it without being a manwhore, but it's tough to classify as one when I barely know half these girls.

Its a problem many of these VN's that focus on romancing one girl but give you a bunch to chose from are facing. In many of them, this one included, you do one date and the girl already becomes kind of clingy and jealous after just one date, it doesn't allow for the MC to date around prior to choosing the one. Often times you don't even get to meet every available girl prior to making that choice. I mean, even in IRL people go on dates without immediately committing to first person they meet, unless they really hit it of. We are not allowed to ''window shop'' in a lot of these games sadly. I get that its probably done this way to create dramatic moments but at least give us a chance to make the choice we want. Sure you can decline that first date but first dates shouldn't mean full on commitment to one girl.

Im liking this game, its quickly becoming one of my top VN's i have played so far, but a bit more leeway would be appreciated.

Confused about a point:

Unless I'm mistaken, Keyla was the first one, Alessa became something after Keyla left, and after some time, cause the MC didn't see her like that at first. Then he left for college and stopped the relationship, long-distance and all... (kinda like what Kim did to the MC, when you think about it)
