"You either play it with wiki open or you're in for a hard time."
this is and has always been my biggest complaint with this game
Emma is my go to example for this considering her path can get closed off you are not careful on sams path
trying to progress Emma's story and the objective for meeting her and Samantha after the call doesn't go away can you not progress it any further at this point
(also tried to freindzone samantha before emma was properly introduced to see if that would fix it and she still introduced me as her boyfriend but immediately got the bad end after i progressed to a certain point )
