Can't take anything said after that seriously...
Chris isn't running "interference", he's pouring gasoline and lighting a match.
He's a lying, manipulative scumbag and a shit friend, which is "fine" when playing Anna on the "naughty/cheating" path.
Even on the "naughty" route though, Anna is hesitant and second guessing herself.
That's what makes the "faithful" route so stupid when she sends the first pics, with no player choice at 0 "corruption"-naughty/submissive.
But, in part 2, before the pics convo happens, the player gets the choice about Anna (faithful/naughty/submissive) at work, before she sends the pics? I mean seriously? Then, the scene replay sending pics, and her inner monologue before sending the pics, oh, this is too much, i shouldn't do this, oh but i'm gonna send them anyway... I couldn't stop laughing when the choice came up and #1 was "Dumb"... Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking, this is dumb...lol Then, to add insult to injury, later on, you get the choice with Anna to not send pics (on either path), when she's not wearing her husband's favorite, and after she thinks her husband is cheating and kicked him out of the house... WTF?
The very first Anna choice should have been about those 1st pics in part1... And there were several ways it could have been handled, even if the pics went to Chris any way, (eg.. by accident, meant to send to David), depending on how the player played David.
Anna is a weak, porn cliché character and not realistic at all.
And might be the dumbest woman in any story/game I've played so far...
Which is fine, if that's the way the creator wants to roll.
I'm really looking forward to the reveal that some how, Kendra/Janet has Anna's doctor in on this crap, too...
It would just be nice, when offering "options", particularly "faithful" ones, for them to make sense.
A Perfect Marriage is a great, ambiguous title that can be interpreted different ways by a broad audience.
This author has the chance to make each path ending good and satisfying for fans of each.
And make Anna's character on the faithful route a little more redeemable.
It would actually be unique if the faithful route was done "right"...
My Wife's a Star is the closest example, even though the original version took a hard left turn at Albuquerque in that last update...lol But, someone created a Ren'Py version that allowed players to continue playing that main female protagonist as "faithful", not doing anything without husband's knowledge/consent... She could also be played as a cheating whore, which was fun, too...
However, that change, allowing Valerie to still be "faithful", turned that game from one I (and many others) disliked because of the made no sense BS update, to one of my favorites, because it now made sense...
That being said, I'm just as interested as anyone to see Anna show more skin and give someone, or multiple someone's, a blowjob...
And I've only recently discovered this game and haven't been waiting 2 years...lol
It's just that on the faithful route, I'd prefer it be her husband after a confession and apology for sending dbag Chris pics of herself in her husband's favorite lingerie... That was just mind boggling for a supposedly smart, and up to that point, faithful, loving wife... Hell, my ex-wife at least had the decency to send pics of new lingerie that I didn't buy, hadn't seen yet, or at least wasn't my favorite... And she only did it after we were "separated"...
