seems that you and me read english differently. I took the dev's words, you spinned a fairytale.
now I dont know about you, but sucking your own cum out of the pussy you just fucked doesnt sound like "emphasys on the protagonists struggles"
neither humiliating the mc in a predominately maledom game with a scene that is in fact skippable-ie, not avoidable. it happens, you are just given the choise not to see it.
also:
"But yeah,
the game will
never give
the player something without
taking/punishing them first, so
. "
point where it says about the protagonist's struggles here.
your second paragraph just cements what I said. this was not -up to this point- a beta mc game.
cool that you defend the dev. I respect that.
best of health.
You do understand that the dev's post you quoted wasn't a statement or announcement out of the blue, but a response to another post where the "struggle" and the general premise of the discussion is clearly defined? So no, you didn't take the dev at his word, you took the dev out of context and made a fluffy strawman. Since I have a first-hand understanding of the discussion, being the one who started it, I have the necessary context to be very precise with my assessment. Unless of course you think that the dev didn't comprehent my post. I mean, it could happen, but I wouldn't count on it.
So it's my turn to ask, since you consider yourself good at comprehension, how, despite the game having more than enough content to set a very strong precedent, you made that argument about the intended audience? Did the dev talked about future/not yet released content? No, he talked about everything that has and will happen.
Would you say that the majority of the already-existing scenes cater to beta masochists?
If yes, then let's agree to disagree. I still have to scrutinize your post because I think you are mirepresenting the game/dev's post, but I can accept a different opinion.
If no, then there is no way your argument holds water. You made a momentary error in judgement. Happens, so take a step back and either accept my answer or make a new argument.
The game caters to people who like perverted things and Xianxia. The "perverted things" are an abstraction. It can be drugs, corruption, molestation/assault, humiliation, rapey/forced scenes, sleep stuff etc. It has all of them. It can also be a femdom scene where the headmistress rubs her cum-filled cunt in our face while exchanging insults with you and the subsequent table-turning that the dev has mentioned.
From there on, if you want to focus on the harem/maledom aspects, more power to you. I personally like those too. But that's only part of what the game is and since I'm quite fond of it, I will scrutinize any post that I believe misrepresents the material, especially if I consider it derogatory/unreasonable.
