Mainly because there is a growing group that aggressivly advocate for that fetish being included into games and sometimes even demand to change the focus onto that fetish and on the otherhand a group of people that would instantly drop their most favorite game if it actually came to happen.
So consider it a war of opinions and fetishes while both sides try to apply to the rules as not kink shameing each other... so far this thread was able to keep relatively free from that as Chyos manages to deliver an equal ammount of content for both camps without favoring any
What I try to say is that most people have proven by their vote to be more interested in either furthering the main story, include new abilities (magic and crafting noteably) or just to see more content for their favorite Character.
I think you completely missed my point.
My original point was that this one specific area that this game has NTR is not being used properly. Chyos says that he uses it for punishment. That's not me saying this it is him. According to your three definitions of NTR two out of the three would require the MC to choose and the third
can't require choice for it to make sense.
As an example Kate being shared with others when dating the MC. While NTR it'd make sense for that to be a choice. I guess that that'd fall under Netorase, it would depend on context but in the story the MC usually pushes her to do this. While I can't think of an example in the game if the MC would choose to steal another mans wife it be Netori. Again it'd make sense to choose that and nobody would argue.
My sole complaint is with the use of the Netorare. With Kate and Thomas, Kate and Rick, Firsha and Dave to name a few examples where the MC has to actively work in order to enact the Netorare when it should be a punishment.
Netorare: The Love interest sleeps with other men/women without the Partners consense or knowledge and either neglects him/her or is unsatisfied if with them.... eventually has the tendency of breaking the couple up... in a story you follow the view of the person that is being cheated on.
If that definition is true then the Kate and Thomas storyline doesn't make sense. The Kate and Rick gameplay doesn't make sense. The bullshit Firsha and Dave "interfere" or "Don't Interfere" completely fails any Netorare test. I'm not arguing with the outcome of the Firsha and Dave NTR storyline I just don't like that you choose it.
Here's my olive branch... You may argue that NTR isn't popular. Your correct. Truthfully I don't even like Netorare and wouldn't enjoy an entire game solely dedicated to Netorare. Personally I'd like it in to live with the consequences of my actions as the game plays out and I'm not alone in thinking this. A reviewer put it better than I could when they said "I'm no fan of NTR, but I kept my NTR switch on and I liked the tension it creates to ensure I do not mess up with the girls." I'm not alone in thinking this. You claiming that people want to see magic and abilities improved more than NTR isn't winning any arguments even though while I may not only agree with your statement because if I had to take a poll which to improve character stories/abilities/magic on one side and NTR on the other I'd choose the character stories easy. But you haven't addressed my main complaint. You just keep dismissing it because its an unpopular issue so it doesn't need to be heard. Also, our goals aren't mutually exclusive. If it's not an issue of can we get the changes but WHEN then I'm fine with waiting. After the game has been finished and then Chyos has the time to go back and do some touch ups then great I'm all for it. Going forward though he can take an effort not to do what he did with Firsha and Dave though. It looks like Penny is going to win the next poll last time I checked and if she does he may include possible NTR content for her story since he hinted at it last time with Lucius in the walkthrough. If it's some bullshit "hey do you want to get cucked and watch penny get taken advantage of by Lucius?" question I'm going to be pissed. Following sneaking around that mansion for the Firsha missions was kinda fun only to lead to that bullshit depressing "interfere" or "don't interfere".
I'm not here to cater to one specific fetish. I'm not asking for Incest, Cucking, Pregnancy, or whatever. While I may have my own preferences and fantasies, hopes for future updates like seeing more MMF content, Pregnancy content, appropriate Netorare punishment content. I'm not banging the table demanding it be done. All I did was voice my frustrations. That's it...
My sole original complaint is why in the hell is Netorare in this game a choice? Chyos put it in as a punishment. HE DID NOT ME. So why did he betray his original NTR statement?
