btw I had a question. What is the requirement of getting a personal date in week 3? In my first playthrough of the proper game I couldn't get one for Gisette for some reason even though she seemed overall interested in me. I remember to be able to do that in the demo but not here. My relationship stats are almost equal parts friendship, romance and respect, is that the reason? Or was I wrong to also seduce her brother (I figured the way for us to be together would be a political marriage to her brother and looking at the guide I was correct).

Now at my last interview with the MM, there was no romance nor political marriage option so I dropped this playthrough for now to start over. Or is there still a chance for romance at this stage of the game?

so, there are two different kinds of routes in this game - full routes and secret routes (with some weird ambiguous edge cases like jarrod and lisle). the full routes are generally with the kinds of people the matchmaker would approve of you pairing off with, and they get week three dates. gisette is a secret route, so she doesn't get one. if your relationship values are high enough when you're going to see the matchmaker for the last time at the end of week three, she'll interrupt you on your way there, send jasper away, and imply that she's interested in you. (if you go to the gazebo right after the horse incident in week two you'll have a scene with her there that comes with a relationship boost, a stat boost and a CG, which are necessary to get the values high enough, i think?)

i'd actually avoid pursuing jarrod if you're interested in gisette unless you have the stats to talk him down after rejecting him - just be evil and avoid him, and gisette will do the rest

also, your relationships with Everyone are reliant on how well you perform at events, including the self-hosted ones - everyone you invite gets a big boost of friendship, respect, and potentially romance, which is great for building romance with the secret routes!

Thank you very much for the detailed reply! I actually remember getting to the part you mention (Gisette interrupting me before MM) in the demo years ago now! This time I somehow overthought it I think by trying to seduce her brother and also sadly missed the Gazebo event. 

This game is not to be taken lightly that's for sure even in the story mode, so I actually referred to the booklet a bit before abandoning that save and starting new game as the pirate princess from Hise, pursuing Ria romance route and fortunately I was able to secure her romance before MM and got to the murder plot now (which is all new to me because that's where things ended in demo). I just hope I can finish this route without any problems because Ria deserves all the love and hugs in the world! (in this route I somehow even managed to have Anaele, Emmett and Hamin all in love with me which fortunately all of them took the rejection very well, which was easy really as they are always the most agreeable people in the game xD where-as in my previous route I basically ended with no romance and even no friends) 

I actually planned to romance Ria as a shy good natured and non-ambitious widow first before realizing from the booklet that it's literally impossible for you HAVE to be ambitious to even get the widow route! I'm saving the ambitious widow route for Gisette now as it'd make more "sense" I think than my first route (court lady from Corval) given that I'd be from Revaire AND would be ambitious indeed!

Sorry for the long post, I just get too excited with this game!
