I will never get the "girls can fuck no one but me" attitude.
Some people don't like to share their toys. It's not exactly a difficult thought process to grasp; I mean, there's a reason the overwhelming majority of people aren't in open relationships. I mean, historically speaking, people who've had harems haven't been all that accepting of the women in those harems fucking other men, have they?
DMD is so good because it gives you the option to play how you like with plenty of opportunities and warnings when you are heading down a sharing route if that is something you don't want to see.
Yes, but as I understand their recent intent, they're limiting those options. I think that's the problem.
As of right now, there are three broad options:
A) MC + D. Player has one toy they get to enjoy all to themself.
B) MC + D + other female characters, all only sleeping with the MC. Player has multiple toys they get to enjoy to themself.
C) MC + D + other female characters, all of whom are sleeping with men other than the MC. Player has to share all their toys.
Going forward, there will be only two options (A and C), so people who like B are getting shafted. What proportion of people like B, and are likely to be pissed at its removal? Couldn't say; seems to be the majority to me (meaning it's a weird decision to remove it), but maybe there's fewer of them than I think.
If I've misunderstood their intent, and B will still be an option, please don't hesitate to correct me.
