A lot to unpack there. So let me say thank you for the feedback before anything else.
If I understand you right, the difference for you between optional, and avoidable NTR for you is that in avoidable NTR the knowledge than the threat is there stays around. While in optional NTR you can just say "I don't want to see the competition at all" or something similar.
I see your point, though to me, I still consider it optional because it is in no way the default. But I don't want to get too much into semantics here.
As for the rest of your post. I actually agree a lot. I can say this, the focus from here on out is going to be pretty clear. It's one of the reasons I'm frustrated myself at what happened with losing so much of this update. You guys can see a bit of where we are going but I think the focus will become clearer in the future.
As for Christine, she isn't stupid or a slut. Absolutely true. But she's not super naive or uninterested in sex and stuff either. Smart girls striking out on their own for the first time, sometimes fall for guys who are bad news. Or they get involved in situations that they might not be prepared for. I consider Christine as a character with her own wants, needs, insecurities, and talents. Anything that happens, whatever the route, she should feel like the same character.
But as I have said before. The focus will always be primarily on the MC and Christine, especially from here on out if you are on one of the main two routes. As I said before in this thread, the relationship between the MC and Christine is starting in full, and we'll see where it goes.
Thanks again for the feedback. And I hope you enjoy what's coming down the pipe.
Ok in real life i'm the jelous type and maybe that lead to me not being able to explain myself clearly.
IF the game would give the chance of ''no competition'' i wouldnt even play it, the whole point of this game compared to others is that you have to make the girl fall for you while others try to do the same, and they actually have a chance to do soo, not like they are always the ''bad guys'' and mc the ''prince charming''.
With all the ''ntr rant'' i meant that if i go full romance route, as i am and will always be going for, Christine should share the feelings and trying to be with MC and not with others. To use your words she is interested in sex and stuff but not ''extremely sexually frustraded'' to the point she would love to try all the fucking in the world more than the feelings she have/will have for the MC (Since we are tanking about a realistic story that would be only logic, or maybe i really got lucky in my real life experiences and never met a girl like this haha).
About the upcoming dates between niece and Silver/Robert i cant remember if those are optional or must happend, can you refresh me on that?
Even more important i hope that will not make the game a ''missing out experience'' meaning that if i don't like ntr i will lose scenes. In my opinion if the game says that the
ntr is optional for every scene of this genre there should be a counterpart for people who dislike it.
If Christine fool around with S/R on ntr path she should get mad (to say the least) and react on romance path but not only that, there should be a scene (maybe later on that day that wont happend if you let the others have her).
In the end it's a realistic story soo if the player wants Christine with the MC she should not be other cause lets be real,
even i prefer Robert over the MC and if i had to choose i would pick him if i were her but having multiple guys at the same time doesnt fit her character. Soo please dont make it soo Christine will become a fuck doll.
I'm not insulting anyone who likes ntr and if read this and get offended i apologize
but:
The point of this fetish is having the girl you have feelings for getting stolen from you (i'm sure there are many variants for the description of this kink but this is the main part) and if you like the game as me, which is a realistic story, you should agree that if she is ''stolen'' from you the MC cant have her.
Dont mistake ntr for voyeurism, even more Christine is still a virgin, im not expecting the game to go on for years soo its impossible (seeing how slow the game is moving) to make her:
1) get her way into sex
2) having different experiences
3) probably developes feelings for the one she has sex with (As a normal human being in her situation shouldve)
+
4) make her a voyeur (!?!?)
I mean in this game its all happening in days, not months or years. Making her a voyeur would be just a thing forced into the game to let MC and Christine have sex on a ntr path.
Thats my opinion at least and take it as it is, an opinion, not an aggression to you sexual preferences.
