The dev meant to do what they did with the story. I don't think it's a dream, or hypnosis, or anything like that. It's them being heavy-handed with the drama and thinking that dropping bombs like this is good story-telling. As someone mentioned, that is common in soap operas and stuff, although they're kind of well known for bad writing and unrealistic stories. And this isn't a soap opera. It's a game where for most people, they're identifying as the MC.
Tamara and Jo are up to something, or maybe they're being forced to do something. Either way, they seem to be doing it only because of the MC, either because they're trying to help him or because they became targets for being his sisters and/or lovers. So in my mind what they are doing doesn't diminish them. That falls solely on the MC. He's responsible for this, either through action, or inaction, or just by existing. And by extension, since a lot of us kind of self-insert into the MC in these games, we feel like we've failed. That's why this is hard for a lot of us to process or be okay with. Palmer created a game with female characters that are really easy to feel for, and a couple of male characters that are easy to hate. I've already kind of despised the MC for being an emo brat. As someone said, he just kind of takes from the girls before ever thinking about giving back sexually or otherwise. With his first time with Jo and Tamara, it became all about him in that one episode, and how he "needed this tonight". That just seemed such a horrible way to have it happen to me. Not because of lust, or love. But because the MC needed it, and talked the girl into what almost turned into pity-sex.
But unless something changes, Jo and Tamara are innocent. The issue is with Dennis (actually the Devs) taking things way too far dramatically. But it's also with the MC being such an awfully written character, and such an awful person overall, but still having everything with a pussy throw itself at him. The devs are going to try to come up for some resolution for this, but as with a lot of drama in the past, it's going to be something silly or stupid. There's no way Dennis's evil can be undone, just ended. And there's not really a way either that the MC can be redeemed. They're just not a good character as a protagonist, and their failure to make him at all sympathetic is a major failing of this game.
I've been a supporter via Patreon of this game since day 1, and I stick with it now mainly to see this through. The girls in this game are incredible visually, and I loved their initial personalities, although I think they've kind of blended together over time. I definitely don't play it for the writing, or game engine, and definitely not for the drama or because the MC is so fun to play as. Playing the MC is like putting on a shirt and realizing it hasn't been washed. It will do the trick, but you feel kind of dirty and uncomfortable for wearing it.
