Agreed. I've been trying to get past it for the past hour. I'm no great gaming prodigy (I just plod my way through normal difficulty on RPGs), but still, I didn't expect I'd need mad skills for a murder mystery game. At the very least, the Kind level is not very kind at all and needs much more kindness.
It's so disappointing because the game is soooo good!
I got a gift from Zarad (my last playthrough's romance option.) Romance was maxed out, I'm not sure if anything else needed to be triggered. (I kissed him when I had the option to, but I don't even remember if that scene was before the ball or after it.) Sorry, don't know if that helps.
I'm playing a runthrough with Lyon right now, approaching week 6 soon. I'll try to pay attention this time and report back.
https://7kpp.fandom.com/wiki/Cumulative_Skills this should hopefully give you some idea.
I was dumped by Clarmont ;_; I assume I need to see all the Rebel secrets to progress the romance? I've done it in a previous demo playthrough years ago, but I can't quite remember what's needed - what rooms I'm supposed to explore when. Can someone refresh my memory please?
So happy you finished this Aly, I've loved this game for many years. Thank you!
...In the meantime I'm venturing into week 7, forever alone lol.
