I'll take these points one by one despite the fact it will probably make for a long post...
These tricks like Magic and Blackmail are lazy shortcuts IMO and in most of those games once the sex has started they get back to the more romantic and consensual relations that the genre is about. So yes you use Magic to make Mom want to have sex with you but the fact is she still wants to have that sex once the spell is cast and not because she is poor and unwilling but needs money so she begrudgingly decides to make a porno with her son! With most of the blackmail tropes, she decides she likes the sex she didn't want to have. Lazy Bad Storytelling! But in the end it almost always leads to the place it should have gone from the beginning...The sex gets much more consensual and wanted after the ice has been broken when the best parts of most incest stories is the lead up to the sex and the breaking of the ice that starts the romance. Magic, leverage and Blackmail are lazy ice breakers.
But this is supposed to be "The Best Incest Game Ever!"
Unfortunately it is more like the Best EVERY GENRE BUT INCEST game ever.
The Incest relations in this game are incidental to the acts being written into the story. He could make the characters all be roomates and the game wouldn't suffer in the least. It's like the Cameras...
yep they are there...But they don't really serve the story...
Sure they are related...But the story isn't about the conflict or coming closer together than a family really should.
It's about what conniving scheme, leverage or lie can I come up with this week to get some sex. Incest is about an emotional bond progressing past the point it normally does in a familial relation.
I could care less about DS taking my advice or what he does to his own game...His listening or changing his game based on what I say isn't a big benefit to me but it could be of great benefit to himself and his profits. He is free to take my advice or not. I'm just giving my honest assessment of his creation in regards to his attempt at making the best incest game ever...best Blackmail Corruption game might be a better marketing line to use. Those folks will LOVE this game! And while yes there are many unoriginal Incest games out there who use Blackmail and Magic as a crutch to get to the incest by the release of V.2 of their game in the name of boosting patreonage quickly, it's a weak unimaginative storytelling tool and ignores the true thing that makes incestuous sex hot as a genre. The SEDUCTION of someone who should never give in to it because they are related, GIVING IN to that seduction and WANTING to have sex with that person willingly!You raise a good point, but venting your frustrations is going to make the dev less likely to take what you say seriously. I personally view romantic/intimate routes as more erotic then blackmail/desperation which are pretty meh to me. One of the only solaces I can get from the blackmail and manipulation stuff is if it eventually leads to a stronger emotional bond or intimacy/love. This reason is why for me personally, and for so many others, the dissolution of intimacy/romantic routes sucks so much.
If you want to see the Incest Genre done right I suggest you tryTake the vast majority of incest game out there, and you'll usually find intimacy and/or romance as either routes or outcomes of the blackmail, if not the main story itself. You have the other big ones, Summertime Saga, Dating My Daughter, and Dreams of Desire that illustrate that well. There's also a shit ton of smaller ones like Incest Story 1/2, MILFs Villa, Crusoe had it easy, Play with us, Daughter for Desert, A Zombie's Life and the list goes on and on. I can count less incest games without intimacy than I can count with it.

. It has the perfect mix of Seduction, Coercion and Romance that this game sorely lacks and breaks them out as different paths for each character in the game. You Seduce Mom, Coerce older Sister and the Younger Sister is using her brother as her guide and experimental partner for sexual exploration. It has everything we here have been asking for from DS and the MC doesn't have to act like an ass 99.9% of the time to get some sex!These tricks like Magic and Blackmail are lazy shortcuts IMO and in most of those games once the sex has started they get back to the more romantic and consensual relations that the genre is about.

He has been pretty clear that he can not bring himself to make Incest romantic at all. Which is proof to me he doesn't understand the genre and the only reason why incest exists at all in this game is for the Marketing tags because INCEST SELLS!Intimacy/romance is a big part of the incest genre and I hope DS will do his best to try to find a way to reimplement it, because if I'm being honest what he was doing before in the early game, specifically with the Lisa GF route, he was doing a fine job building up to it. This shows to me that DS absolutely has the ability to write and add intimacy to the late game if he puts forth the effort to come over his self-made limitations. It would truly be disheartening if he completely abandons such an important aspect of his game.
Perhaps because it isn't related to the Incest Genre at all? If he was advertising a BDSM game that included family members then no one could complain about the story as it is...To be honest, i don't understand why that bdsm-theme in big brother splits the people.
