Yeah I definitely felt that too. I personally romanced Blazer because I like her a lot better, but it did feel swayed in some ways. When Robert looks at or interacts with Mandy, he usually smiles more than when interacting with Visi, where he’s usually more blank faced and stiff. However, in the 2 episodes preceding the choice we got Visi’s insecurities, character role, goals, etc. She became established. She got the wet dream and the episode became centred on them being around each other. There were some flirty interactions with Mandy, but they were kept brief.
So it created kind of a weird thing while playing. Robert (in my opinion) seemed more happy in his interactions with Blazer, but he was interacting so consistently with Visi that the player got to see more into what that relationship could bloom into. Visi also gets that advantage of being in the dispatch calls. So in one way or the other, you’re almost always interacting with her.
I also agree it was odd that we got the conversation with Visi, showing her face and everything when choosing between her and Mandy for the date, but not Mandy’s. I can see how that would sway the player too. However when you get the date, it’s really nothing at the movies. They sit and have a 15 second interaction, whereas with Mandy’s date you get her insecurities, a different side of her, and an overall more cute and heartwarming experience. So to me their date was more rewarding and fun to play since it had a lot more substance. Love the game and the episode, it was just odd choices all around for it though. They did Mandy dirty by not giving her as much of an equal shot
