There are 4 routes from the end of episode 5:
That's the kind of criticism I like: it's not aggressive, but it challenges me. You're right: I have a tendency to neglect the husband, to give him little substance, even though he's an essential part of the drama and the plot. I'm going to give it some serious thought. Thank you so much!
I can't help but appreciate people who have a sense of humour. And these two lines made me laugh, in the context of the discussion.
Guys, we've reached critical mass for the first time here: three people agree!
Yall are the first people I've seen who've ever said that they like when the mc already comes with a spouse/LI. Most people seem to find them annoying especially when there are forced sex scenes between the two.
That's why I asked if it's the cheating aspect that is liked. I don't remember playing games that advertise themselves as "ntr" focused. Those tend to be male mc games which I don't really find that interesting. From my experience women mc games with spouses also tend to have most people ask why are you forced to be with him especially if you're forced to have sex scenes with him.Brother, either you didn't pay much attention when you wrote this comment or for any other reason, I don't know
Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to argue or disrespect you
Do you know that there are so many fans of NTR, NTS, and NTRI (netorare, netorase, netori)? For these three genres to exist, the female protagonist must have a boyfriend or husband
And Look at the female protagonist genre on f95; the most popular games in this genre include a married woman (Or at least they are equal)
So, there are many fans of married female protagonists (you say it's your first time seeing someone like us)
Regarding your main question:
In short: Because we are fans of forbidden relationships (cheating on the husband) and other themes that add a lot of tension and excitement to the story (drama fans)
As long as the story's logic holds up, betrayal shouldn't happen for silly and childish reasons
I think I understand what you mean. To apply your point to Laura's case, the question would be "is it absolutely necessary for the woman (Laura) to have a partner (Mario) for the story to make sense and/or be interesting?" And my answer is yes. If I want to develop why, it's going to take me a long time. But you should know that he's the one who initiates the adventure by signing his girlfriend up for a show, and so he's the one who propels her into another world, at the risk of losing her there. That's the trigger. As for the storyline, the partner is also indispensable, making the woman's path difficult: she's tormented, torn between opportunity (the handsome guy and all he represents) and loyalty (Mario and the difficult virtuous path). I can't imagine the story being set in any other context. I'd like to finish by saying that, for me, there's nothing NTR about it. It's a notion from the all-too-subtle Japanese culture that - sorry guys - doesn't speak to me. We're talking about loyalty or cheating here. Nothing else.
No need to be sorry. You're not alone.
I have no idea how bad my English is. Most of the time I translate from french with DeepL and proofread briefly. But I have to admit that I'm running out of time... I read some comments about the acceptable level, but well...
Read my answer to a previous post regarding the routes. It's on route 4.
Well, first of all I criticized the dev's other games because there was a pattern and I personally thought if the game is built in with a pre existing relationship which they were, why not make it more believable?
Thank for listening. But I gotta say after playing this one I think it had a little more interaction with the husband which makes it easier to choose the routes than the other gamesThat's the kind of criticism I like: it's not aggressive, but it challenges me. You're right: I have a tendency to neglect the husband, to give him little substance, even though he's an essential part of the drama and the plot. I'm going to give it some serious thought. Thank you so much!
.. Like it feels like Laura's motivation for adventure revolves around Mario's lack of looks, energy and everything. Even though you can write good enough script to compensate for that but in a VN what's gonna be on the screen would be hard to ignore. I get the point that her husband lack those so, she finds it elsewhere but it's gonna be like a typical reason, less taboo.
So the lesbian route is only for when the mc's life goes to hell? That's disappointing.
