Sorry but it seems like you are the one going around and targeting those who don't seem to agree with your opinion just like how you picked mine out even if my comment wasn't for you. So many people enjoyed the Leon scene with Clara and only the minority who hated it are being more vocal here as expected.
I have long since stopped trying to explain what the game is trying to convey to people like you because I want to respect this thread rules.
Those who were looking for explanation to why the cheating happened can kindly read my earlier comment or ignore if they want to force their opinion on me. That is why I put it out there.
But since you already picked my comment to nitpick on, let me pick something back,
Clara's actions are undoubtedly bad and considered a betrayal by many, but they serve a purpose, in fact, the most important purpose from a plot perspective. It shows and exhibits complicated moral dilemma and human weaknesses to the story. Its quite realistic that everyone has dark desires in their heart and so many succumb to it, even more so under extreme and stressful conditions.
In regards to forgiveness, it falls on Alan's( or the player's) discretion whether or not to forgive Clara. You argued that Alan's trust and faith in her will never be fully regained, but that entirely depends on his character's ability to forgive. There are indeed instances where people have successfully rebuilt trust after experiencing a major betrayal. There is always 2 sides to a coin even if it won't be perfect.
As for Clara's traumatic past which is yet to be made clear, it might not justify her actions, but it should be a significant aspect of her character development and might provide a possible explanation for her actions, perhaps even adding a sense of realism to the story.
You still think she cheated because of a "kiss" and that is proof that you barely understood what is happening between the main characters or you simply skipped or didn't care to pay more attention to everything that happened before.
Depicting characters with perfect moral compasses would be unrealistic and unrelatable; we all have our flaws and make mistakes.
When it comes to lessons and consequences, the story isn't over yet. We have yet to see how Clara's adulterous actions will shape her future and whether the consequences will lead her to accept responsibility for her actions.
Moreover, netorare stories are a niche genre that doesn't appeal to everyone, but they thrive on evoking strong emotions. The purpose is to challenge the players and provoke "healthy" discussion rather than make an echo chamber of ntr haters.
But when all is said and done, the dev's choices may not align with the preferences of every person, but they create interesting drama and thought-provoking scenarios than the usual boring cliche where the woman is forced into cheating compared to doing so out of her own will because of "unique" circumstances rather than just simple cheating. "Being forced into cheating" plots are so predictable and overdone that even a pig can guess how it will end. You pick any ntr story out of 100 and 99 times you will get the same thing.
But people are free to dislike what they don't like but what baffles me is why they stick around instead of moving on lol
