Well if the Devs are already moving sharing into the direction of NTR, be prepared to lose alot. I guess i didn't play sharing paths as I'm not into that, but having Daughter Confess Love for Martin wasn't a good idea in my opinion. Apparently many describe it was basically happening abruptly without real reason. This however will lead to many people dropping out, more so than with just simple sharing. I'm still going to play it, I'll just continue to play the paths I enjoy so no real issue for me, however as things progress you will experience backlash from some and it may end up a hefty price if not careful. The other day I read that another said Devs said there would never be NTR, which is good, but maybe edit daughters love confession or at least explain yourselfs and the direction clearly like you did for the sharing content. Give people the right idea now, because if you just drop it on them later without warning it will end up bad for Dev team.
So let me be clear, I'm not saying don't do whatever, frankly I don't care too much, it won't affect me, I will play the paths I enjoy. However not everyone is me. And last thing that is good for any dev team is to destroy public trust. You got a huge fan base. You can't make everyone happy but the least you can do is make your intentions clear so that the damage is controllable. (Let's be fair your going to take a financial hit from this one way or another, but your actions will decide how much and if you can recuperate some). If you intend to move into muddied waters, perhaps you should point it out to people now. You will loose some but you might actually gain others. I'm not sure the trade would be fair, a surplus (I doubt that) or a loss. But it would be better than waiting until the next update.
