Maya talking too much about the ex,good energy,looking to party and alcohol

Saffron is cool with her life style,but vegan sometimes can be irritating and lecturing others not to eat meat

Has she actually filmed her part of the game inside her real home?

If you finish with Saffron she actually doesn't go the stereotypical vegan lecture direction, she doesn't even care if you eat meat, she just asks you not to do it in front of her. Her third date is more about the adventure and travel of her point of view, it doesn't really harp on about the vegan thing, she treats it like her choice and not a demand on others. I really liked Saffrons ending.

Paige I've only gotten to second date, she threw me under the bus for selecting the "wait 15 years" and I'll have to replay again and pick the "be a father tomorrow" option to see it through.

Maya I didn't like at all, she's too hung up on her past and the whole vibe of her interest in drugs is a real turn off.

Grace is kind of stuck up even from the start, and the twist at the end just really throws it away.

Shaina I haven't played through yet.

I need to play through again for Paige and Shaina and probably some of the alternate scenes of the ones I did finish.

Most of them did. This was filmed during lockdown as a lockdown project, most of them filmed at home or in rented hotel rooms alone.

You could slam it for the poor audio/video quality but it actually kinda adds to the charm as it's more realistic in what you would experience from someone's home video camera streaming, because that's what they used to make it.

offcourse Paige will throw you when you call a child Evil(even before you know she has one herself) :D

Maya is also gorgeous but she must release from the past(her tears in one of the dates because of the ex....)

Honestly that's out of context though, you don't actually call the child or having a child evil, and that's probably one of the lines in this story that I hate the most is how she responds without even understanding what was said.

"The lesser of two evils" was referring to the evil of the forced choice, not the end result of having a child or the child itself.

There's no good answer like "wait until we're both ready" as the preferable context. If given an actual choice, a forced choice, it's the choice itself that is evil (because it's forced on you) and as such the lesser choice that causes the least frustration and chaos is to wait 15 years if those are the only two choices given. He's not wrong and she takes it entirely out of context.

It also ignores entirely that just because waiting might be preferable it doesn't mean having an instant baby would be the end of the world or even a terrible thing.

"Have a kid now or have a kid later" well, is it a choice? Have it later ~ is not the same thing as "I couldn't possibly cope with just becoming an instant father"

It just means hey, if forced to have an instant kid, this might take a moment to get used to. Is that a bad thing? No, but it's not really ideal. We don't live in a perfect world, we don't always get to make ideal choices, so in the abstract of being given two forced choices it's unfair to slam someone for picking an ideal choice when the alternative isn't necessarily bad, it's just not optimal.

And thus being forced to make the choice is the evil because it's not taking into account any sense of reality. It doesn't imply at all that a child is evil or that having a child now is evil, but she takes it that way without any chance to respond further.

It's just a silly story point, but it's not a very fun scene.

Indeed,15 years is a lot of time,even without the "evil" choice she could get angry or uncomfort with the answer(think of you as childish and not adult with responsibility)

It's also in relation to their age, honestly (to me) they are both pretty young. I can see a lot of 20 somethings choosing 15 years simply because they might not even feel like they have a stable life to bring a kid into the world, even if they could cope with it, doesn't mean it's a default fair choice to the kid if the option to delay a bit exists.

It's a whole different perspective if they were 30+ or 40+ a 40 something that doesn't have a kid yet and still says "15 years" is basically saying never, especially if it puts the female into the menopause range.

I picked the 15 years option based on the games character, not on my own preferences, I felt like it would be something he would choose.

But that's simply because I don't treat this game like it's a dating sim, you aren't really being yourself, it's an interactive movie about the characters and not me. My own answers would be different from most of the choices you are given.

i've got 5/5 and almost all of them is the typical boring girls who are pursiung the scheme life and think they know what they want while not at all. Maybe the arabic girl, Shaila or who is the only normal because she is down to earth with humor and admit she doesnt had bf yet, but then she comes with the marriage stuff and omg I would say bye but i was going for the 5/5 :D

If thats adulthood then next time make a teenage hood date game, I bet that one would be a lot more interesting and fun

In perspective this wasn't really a dating sim as much as it was a slice of what it was like for a specific character and his choices within a very specific scenario of lockdown 2020 dating options.

I would expect more variety if it were an actual dating sim, but it's more of an interactive romcom that happens to be about dating.
