Honestly, this game leaves me feeling a lot more conflicted than I usually do.
On one hand, the production value is really amazing - rendering, character models, music, dialogue are all great. The plot moves at a decent, balanced pace. The author seems to be maintaining a decent update pace too.
But then you have the LIs:
1. A girl who seemingly dumped you for a job, without even having enough respect for you, to tell you until the very last few days. Then, turns up at your workplace, without even saying anything beforehand. Relationships end, often despite best efforts by both parties. But at least one can treat their partner with some basic respect?
2. Another, who was apparently involved with you in the past, moved on to your best friend, kept a huge secret about (1), and is now considering dumping the guy and fantasizing about you? Going with her will probably alienate him, who has seemingly been a dependable bro all these years.
Not to mention side girls like Kimberly - who seems to be rocking the used-up pornstar look.
Julia seems better, but at this point, I'm fully expecting the author to bring back her past to haunt her in some excessively dramatic, explosive fashion.
Olivia doesn't even need anything to be brought back - with her dad there constantly raising prolonged slow death flags.
Michelle appears like a more straightforward option, but that's mostly because we know very little of her.
