Regardless of whether it's rape or not, I wish CoT had things to worry about or actively try to avoid so that it could be more like a game. There's almost no pressure, consequence, or lasting effects for anything, and the only goal is to find new content. Maintaining your needs is trivial, making money is trivial, and getting perfect grades is trivial. Rather than a lifesim, it overall feels more like some sort of grindy CG hunter except the CGs are purely in text form. The only true resource in the game is your patience, and you simply spend those patience points to raise money, level skills, or go through the motions of the near meaningless quasi-lifesim busy work to let time pass so that you can see more scenes or extended variants of the same scenes.
