VN Ren'Py A Perfect Marriage [v0.7.3b] [Mr Palmer]

[Dhoulcmagus]

Exactly. The whole premise of the game has been trashed, this game would've been the same in terms of narrative even if Anna & David weren't married, or didn't have a daughter together. Exploiting those elements is the lifeblood of cheating/NTR stories, and the developers decided to get that out of the way, so that Anna can become a proper slut without feeling guilt. Cheating works best when it's not justified, giving the woman any kind of moral excuse takes the excitement out of it.

Hum. I wouldn't say I meant it that way. What I wanted to say is that, at least from MC's point of view, I wouldn't want to continue in a marriage with someone who can't bear to trust me when I tell her the truth, and punishes me with harsh words and silent treatment that I don't deserve.

It doesn't matter if she's also another victim of this set up, the MC understands that. But he's adamant on being innocent, and keen on proving it to her, and that apparently doesn't mean anything to her, she throws all the responsibility of proving his innocence on him, and gives more credit to other people's word than her husband's. That'd be a major deal breaker for me, and I'd want to nope out of that relationship with this woman at that point.

Tried to play the faithful path, because at least the main antagonist being a woman felt a bit like a "breath of fresh air" in the genre, I guess. That wore off as the story went by and, frankly, not even in the most saint path do I see a believable good ending for the couple. Even if all the truth comes out, and FMC reflects on all her mistakes, the trust that supposedly existed between one another has been so utterly trashed that their marriage doesn't really make much sense, anymore.

If the dev had a faithful/good ending in mind, the couple should've been working together on uncovering what was going on, after MC was so adamant on the fact that nothing had happened. That would've strengthened their bond, even after putting it to test like this. At this point, though, it feels like it's already way too late for that, and that trust is ruined.

There will be a good ending, because why in the statistics "Anna wants to remain faithful to David, and She want this marriage to succeed

That's precisely why the whole separation scenario feels contrived - there's no way a woman like Anna would suddenly believe the word of a coworker she is friends with for such a short while over the word of her husband, whom she apparently deeply loves and the father of her daughter. The dev aims for a realistic slow burn, but nuked the whole realistic aspect with Anna's behaviour.

If you have a brainwashing session every day. Then you start believing everything someone tells you. And then you start repeating their words as if they were yours. If you have no friends, then you have no experience with them and you are nice to everyone. Then you naively think that everyone is nice and good and no one can cheat you, use you or manipulate you. If you also have false evidence of betrayal, then you are full of doubts. So don't be surprised by Anna's behavior. I must say that this is the first game where the character Anna behaves on the faithful path in this way. Which is very interesting for me, I like something new in games.

Again hidden choices that the game won't tell you about. you need to have some points with a sexual predator again to have choices. And on the faithful path I obviously don't have any because you are punished. He was supposed to fix it but apparently the creator did nothing about it. This is probably the path of corruption. I guess this is what the creator once said. Anna may be naughty but she won't cheat.

I played the choice to mess with Chris to see which act it would be she was on her knees not in the car

Her attitude is the problem. He is guilty till proved innocent. She attacked him insulted him she was like a child having a temper tantrum. While he trying to prove it she is not giving him any leeway. So he proves he's innocent how do you return to a happy marriage after not being trusted. In the end she didn't trust him no benefit of the doubt. Proves marriage was not strong.

 

[Adhdclassic]

Wanted to check something regarding Robinson I posted once that the DEV will give you a chance to change the non cheating path. I said that as an assumption. So I played again before the massage Anna wanted to stay faithful and save her marriage when I chose the massage she became unsure of her marriage and it was vulnerable. So the massage puts cheating back on the menu but with who? you denyed all the players on the list.

David has still not given any evidence that he is innocent and his jealous rages are not helping. She wants nothing more than to take David back, he is his own worst enemy, he has a chip on his shoulder. I am surprised she hasn't paid of a crew of thugs to giving him a good tapping up, I am sure Hank could organize something.
It's like a movie called Trance and the guy falls for a women and he goes into massive jealous rages like David and the women is a psychologist and she brainwashes him to forget about her existence and uses bald pussy as a trigger even though she loves him but he is to much of a psycho and the other movie is Butterfly on a Wheel and that is also kind of similar theme, the wife gets a gunmen to take over their lives and it's about teaching the husband a lesson. So common themes are covered in A Perfect Marriage and it's delivery is putting it into a top tier game.
PLOT TWIST
What if it's Anna that is behind the affair to teach David a lesson because he is always being so jealous all the time and she knows who Kendra is all along and they have teamed up to drive David nuts?

But David, I have nothing to show her yet to prove my innocence. .She has strong false evidence against him. And she is full of doubts on top of that. She is still being brainwashed. So until David shows her strong evidence. This will continue. Or one of the opponents will come to David and Anna's side.

Marcel seals the deal when he calls after her after her husband rages in her office, and now her doubts are really limited and is certain he cheated on her.
Obviously people playing it different may get different outcomes.

True matters on what path your playing. But one thing stays consistent in all paths she believes strangers over him. Even if he proves his innocence the marriage is damaged.

They will need to start going to therapy to rebuild their trust.
Even if they don't betray each other.

The end of the literotica book is going to be the non cheating end I am betting

Exactly, especially with a lawyer, they live by “innocent until proven guilty” but she’s being a hypocrite and is not practicing what she preaches

She does.. that's why he's still allowed in the house. She got a photo, clothes smelling of perfume and a condom. That's enough even without both people involved and total strangers saying stuff has been going down to be extremely doubtful, and depending on player's choices David's behaviour either doesn't help his case or digs a deeper hole for him. The character dynamics in this game are really well thought of.

 

[daddy6923]

I feel like in future update hank would leave no chance to punish her (spanking or by rough bj)
He will voluntarily set her up to screw up in the meeting with cliet
And then he will punish anna in her room
