So in the quest "A Modest Proposal" you are a kind of freelance KGB agent but in order to reign you in and humiliate your previous boss they propose a "deal" : spend one of every seven days on the pole being sexually abused, the rest you're free to do whatever and occasionnally do mission for the KGB allegedly.
Now the plan to use the (futur) pole events in order to reduce (futur) several days prison sentence is ok, great even reuse a main/story event for the sandbox. Good thinking please apply that for the bar gloryhole.
However this excerp from the 0.5j changelog worry me and basically kill the desire to play the pole quest:
And the “Modest Proposal” quest now requires for Kira to first commit some crime to get back in prison - walking with breast out, punching the KGB agent in the dick (the usual). The door in the prison fence that allowed Kira to just enter and leave it for no apparent reason is gone now.
This throw out of the window the "deal" aspect, the KGB orders, that even the grunts find stupid and tell you to just kill Gulag which is probably the real objective of the KGB and the 1 of 7 day aspect. Making also using the pole to reduce sentence not just a prison option but basically an obligation. Forcing you to play with the prison part of the game which is dumb. You being able to access the pole and only it without being arrested made sense.
To make the prison more relevant using Mama or Akulov or giving something to gain by commiting crime would be better rather than forcing you to go punch a guy in the dick every so often because computer say so.
Mulan has their vision and it's fine but they shouldn't brutally force player to interact with a optional mechanic. The prison quest is nice, the new addition were pleasant to try but the pole storyline isn't about crime or prison, it's about a powerplay and humiliation, at least that's how the quest play until now.
So it's a rant in the void of a forum. I was kinda excited for the pole but now having to do unnecessary steps with their own consequences kill the mood. For a content for which I wanted to try all the variations, I will do the bare minimum if at all because of bothersome steps.
