"why would I want to include them in a p*rn game (even it's fortunately without the typical tropes) at all? Just to piss off players eventually? To learn them a lesson? To test their patience?"
Are you saying that they shouldn't exist in a porn game if not to get f;ck.d? So there shouldn't be female characters in the game if the purpose wasn't to get f;ck;ed. Or even if being a porn game, as part of the story, you should not have girls to choose between one night stand girls, slut girls, friends with benefits girls and romance girls that you have to work for and at the end you will finally be able to be with them, ony because it is a porn game?
Well, sorry, maybe that was my disappointment speaking too loud

NO, of course every character in a VN has the 'right' to exist regardless of the role or possible relation(ship) to the MC (and vice versa). So it's completely okay, even in a p*rn game, if a character isn't there to be pursued at all. Friendship
without benefits is no game breaker.
However, except for the possible main
Love
Interests:
Vanessa, Riley, Harlow, Erika and the tutor lady (always forget her name)
are the socalled
main LIs in this story.
From the very beginning on. And in every AVN I've played so far, the main LIs are there to build some intimate relationship with. Or not, depending on choice. May it be fast or very slow. Eventually that is one important goal in these kind of stories.
But it just does not seem to be the case in this VN - that's why I said before it feels like a chore.
A really long one so far...
9 episodes of business meetings, an almost never ending chore of 'work' before anything emotional, romantical or even sexual. With these main LIs in particular, only side girls are there to disperse or even distract from this strictly business stuff sometimes.
But anyway (and no hard feelings): I feel, that this story isn't for me anymore. Too tedious to be worth it.
