No, I actually listen to most people when they talk. And when they actually know what the fuck they're talking about in the game. You want a game where it's possible to only be with Mida, only think about Mida, only dream about Mida and never have anything happen outside of your control whether it goes against the plot of the game or not.
No, that was never my point, I stated COUNTLESS times, that the game is good regardless. Lets try to have a civil discussion, I am writting essays, not to shit on the game, but because I care. Otherwise I would just leave a ''this game sucks'' comment and move along.
I like non-monogamous games TOO. I just prefer monogamy if I am offered the choice. And the writing of this game TEASED me with the possibility of monogamy many times before it was revealed that it is not possible. All those choices where MC is allowed to say: ''No, I have a girlfriend.'' Followed by MC cheating without a choice.
That is cool. Just understand that the choices that YOU offer the player make it seem like complete opposite of that, until you make it clear later that it is not that kind of game. YOU offered these choices to the player.
It is like if a game offered the player a CHOICE to comment on girls feet a few times and to say that they were into feet and the girls would tease them with their feet. And then much later in the game in one of the scenes a girl would tease MC with her feet and the MC would canonically reply that he is not into feet and ask her to stop and no footplay or footjobs would ever appear in the game.
No consensual sex happens outside of your control, so Kthu didn't lie.
Besides MC getting raped? Sure, no consensual sex happens outside of dreams.
No relationships happen outside of your control. No sharing scenes happen outside of your control.
Sure, but cheating happens, because MC is in a whole bunch of emotional affairs and kisses girls left and right. Again, please understand what is happening with Isabella, I will post this again, read it, try to understand:
In the tavern Isabella tries to kiss you and you can deny the kiss. Later in the village she tries to kiss MC again, we can deny her again, but she kisses MC anyway - sexual assault, I know it's rofl, but it is what it is. Later in the tent she tries to kiss MC AGAIN, and here comes the very WEIRD part, you can deny her only by telling her that is because you think she is your sister, because of course MC is a horndog and would only deny her because he is not cool with incest, not because he has a GF. And then the FOURTH time MC kisses her himself. So we started out with just being able to deny her, went to being able to deny her but she ignores that and kisses MC anyway, to NOT being able to deny her at all and MC just kisses her himself, cheating on his GF.
My problem here is WHY did you let me NOT kiss her the first time? WHY did you let me NOT kiss her the second time? If in the end they still kiss. What was the point of teasing the player with a CHOICE to not kiss her?
If you like the game, you like the game. That's all there is to it. You can't then turn around and say that find the plot of the game and crucial storytelling parts of the game being out of your control as being bad. Any game that lets you decide 100% of how the story turns out is bad.
I like the game, but are all those random kisses with a bunch of characters crucial if you don' enter into a relationship with them? Are the rape scenes crucial and the story would suffer if the player broke out of mind control before that happened? I have zero complaints about the main story, make that adventure whatever you like, but these things are not even mentioned in the game later.
Did the Kat scene have to happen? Yes, because the mushrooms are joke device that come up a lot. Did you have to fuck her? No.
But you did fuck her, oral sex is sex.
Did the Cari scene have to happen? Yes. Why? Because it was a plot device that led to a bad ending. If you give in and let go, it's a game over. That's the whole point. It's a succubus trying to corrupt you and make you give over to the devils early in the game. I'm sorry that a (then) villain tried to do something plot related to you outside of your control, but that's just how things go.
Sure, that is fine, I would even go as far as to say that things with kissing is more destructive to the relationship than outright getting raped by a demon forcefully, because all those kisses are consensual.
Mida only has sex with Fannay and Lili on the Rebel Path. She's part of Bredita's group, she's being corrupted even if it's not by you. So no, she doesn't have any corruption points but you chose the corrupt path, so that happens. But you don't have to LET it happen. So again, it's within your control.
I know I don't have to do those paths, I never let those scenes happen on main playthrough. The fact that she is so eager is what is strange but sure.
Mida shares you with Koneko because, as I stated earlier, the Mushrooms come into play. Kat's alcohol she serves at the party is spiked with it. Mida and Koneko both drink it and get horny. Mida's lustful side takes over and you have the threesome with them. (if you choose to). But afterwards, there is no lasting relationship with Koneko if you don't want there to be and Mida never brings it up again. If you turn them down, Mida does stuff with her (again under the influence of the drugged alcohol) but it never gets brought up again. It's not like she's having an affair, it's entirely possible she doesn't even remember it.
Ok, fair enough.
Yes, the MC is a horndog, he's always been a horndog since he was 10, snuck out of Kat's room and watched Kat and Ayna in the bath in one of the very first scenes of the game. I mean, what did you think you were getting into exactly?
No but.. You see what I mean though... when that happens YOU give the player a choice to LEAVE instead of staying and watching! That is the overarching theme of my argument. You give the player a choice to NOT be a horndog but later make him canonically horndog.
If you gave me NO choices I would shut up straight way, it just has to do with this illusion of choice in these things.
I'm sorry that you feel like this game doesn't let you play the way you want to play, but this is just going to be outside your control and it isn't going to change.
I like the game anyway, like I said I can enjoy a good fuckboy too, I just PREFER monogamy if it is possible.
So you like the game, good. Keep playing it if you feel that way. If you want a solo ending with Mida, it's in the cards. But things are going to happen in the plot that you don't have control over and there's nothing you can do about it.
I will continue to enjoy the game as a non-monogamous game. like I said the game is good.
PS: I am witting words in bold not because I am screaming but when I want to emphasize the words, I just got used to doing it instead of using italics. So I am calm, I am not raging, lol. Some people get the idea from bolded words..
