You are very observant! There is a scientific explanation: four solar flares caused record-breaking magnetic storms on Earth that suppressed people's libido! People have temporarily lost interest in sex and erotic games. This is the only way to explain why there is nothing to drain! I hope that's the only reason...
I consider only three points to be the most important: in the first episode, the principled Alan ruins Clara by stating that dignity is above all! In the second and third episodes, Alan is afraid to help Clara, which gives Leon the opportunity to start a relationship with Clara! If Alan helps Clara, then there is still a conflict in the relationship between Alan and Clara, but not so critical! In any case, the story ends with an episode when Clara witnesses Anna and Alan kissing! Perhaps this will be the fourth critical moment! According to the rules of the game, only Alan makes crucial decisions! So Clara will hear several versions of Alan's excuses. In general, it seems that it was the ubiquitous Mr. X who led Clara to the door and at the right moment gave the command to Anna to kiss Alan! As you can see, the choice is small and there are practically no undesirable episodes! I noticed that you spend a lot of time with Eva Kiss! Her latest game is so multi - passable that you can't figure it out without a bottle of whiskey and the intervals between updates are so long that, if desired, they allow you to fly around the earth in a balloon , for example ...even in more than 80 days! About our game! I hope that the new update, which we are looking forward to, will not disappoint!
Choices are important, however some NTR is unavoidable.
Choices are important but NTR for the wife is unavoidable though you could prevent her from getting NTR in certain scenarios. More like reducing the stress and heartache she has to bear.
From what you write here, I conclude that in some way it is possible to avoid NTR for the wife. In my opinion, if NTR for the second character should be optional, why didn't the creator do the same for the wife?
No, some NTR scenes can be avoided but if NTR is fully avoided, the game won't be centered around the NTR factor. I assume the NTR is a vital factor for the plot and motivation of this game.
Not necessarily. If you help Clara, she will believe that you still love her and very less chances of your marriage getting broken. But if you don't then the relationship will be broken beyond saving.
So that the game does not end at the very beginning with a game over (the death of Clara), you must choose to sacrifice your pride - NTR on.
