No, because Peter gets treated like a cuck.
Sam's intial conversation could easily be a trigger for paths along with Ethan enthusiastically hearing about Nat's exploits with Peter and other exhibitionist adventures. Yet these are all for naught if you push Darrell away at the start. All the supposed path-complexity of this game goes out the window if you don't like Darrell.
I agree, without Darrel you can't start the cuckold or hotwife sharing path.
There should have been other options for the paths to start.
Maybe real competiton or a substitute for Darrel should have been implemented early on.
If you look at the stories that the developer wrote, then you know how the game will work.
It's not meant to be a critic, I'm just writing like it is.
Still one of the best renpy cuckold games.
