I totally hate random harem endings in which totally unbelievable people are happy to share the MC. Having said that, an ending like that with those three babes sounds very tempting!! So.. I just contradict myself with only two sentences, all for the sake of teen pussy...
my self control is outstanding!
Worst case scenario, we can always relegate such desires to a dream sequence.
Not sure how such a ending could work...hehehe
Neither seems the type to like to share to me.
Yeah it depends completely on how their characters evolve during the story. It's very much a living thing and even I don't know everything that's going to happen between A and Z. There may be some situations that nudge personalities in particular directions, but I won't know till I get to writing those scenes.
Relationships don't really work like that... but a porn game is a porn game. You can push the boundaries of plausibility a bit hehe.
Yeah but in my game I try to mitigate the suspension of disbelief as much as I can. Obviously it has to be pushed in some places to make the plot move, but I try to keep those stretches subtle and within the bounds of near reason as much as possible.
OK, it's not like I am gunning for this harem combination, but given the above ... I can definitely see that someone like Amanda shows the potential to get swept away by her desires, so maybe that could also be something that influences her thinking on the matter as well.
We saw how her brain recoiled after what happened in the hotel, but it seemed mostly about her guilt towards Cassie and perhaps her own fear of falling so easily into the moment (about which she apparently fantasized, helping that moment along). Over time, if Cassie somehow comes into a similar level of intimacy with the MC, that she and Cassie will find they have more in common than either realized ... and Jane rounds out the foursome. So, there does seem a legitimate path for accepting each other's sharing of the MC at some level.
Hm, the more I think about this, I believe what we've seen thus far has the germ of making it work eventually.
Which is why I say I can neither confirm nor deny the possibility. I don't have a well defined plot that takes us through this story. I have a shadow of a plan for ways it can end. But I don't have a linear plot that gets us there. What I have are strong characters with well defined personality types and that kind of dictates what happens in a scene.
But as we've seen with Amanda, the personalities are capable of going through a bit of a paradigm shift under certain circumstances and in that way the characters can definitely evolve. But that sort of evolution will come out naturally in the course of the writing as I feel out the scenes and situations. So we'll see. Anything is possible.
See, now I know I literally just real subtly tried to bribe you with a nomination for an Imperial title to get a Cass, Jane, Amanda harem ending, but I'm super happy to hear about how you plan on taking this. As another commenter mentioned, harem endings are almost always just...not at all convincing. Which is usually fine, cause in games with harem endings the characters aren't actually written like people...but then it rarely ever feels fulfilling.
I usually have the same problem with stories where you hook up with "your neighbour's daughter"; the risk, the taboo, the complicated feelings and relationships, all mixed with a sexual and romantic desire that builds until it becomes overwhelming, all that gets just ignored and "your neighbour's daughter" who has known you as a "parental figure" their whole life is just down to jump your bones at the turn of a page because plot. Like, we degenerates want to enjoy this fantasy of an MC who gets with "their neighbour's daughter", but that fantasy is much more than just the sex itself. So yeah, long-winded way of saying I'm a big fan of your approach of letting who the characters are guide both the story paths and the possible endings. Makes me happy that I decided to pony up to make my meagre contributions to your patreon
Best of luck with all the writing and hard work going forward!
While I appreciate the sentiment...if I'm to become Imperator, I'm going to do it the old fashioned way. Through bloodshed and a coup! One by one I'll sway the Praetorians to my cause and when the time is right...WHAM!!!
But I digress...
The characters will always dictate the story when I write. It's one reason I find the writing to be the easiest part. They're people with their own, thoughts, feelings, insecurities, confidences and agendas. Of course those change subtly depending on what path you're on, red, blue or black. But they're there and they steer the creative vessel. And the MC and Cassie's relationship will certainly be about more than just the sex. My story is about relationships in general of which sex is only a single part. It'll be fun, that much I'm sure of.
And thank you for your contribution to the project! I'm always grateful for every hard earned dollar someone chooses to invest in the game! Salute mate!
Yeah, I very much prefer character consistency over "harem for the sake of it". I don't mind a harem ending but there must be a long build up to reach it, and must be believable... I'd like to have choices that lead to consequences that matter, not just a fuckfest, there's plenty of games like that already.
Your writing skills are a big plus in the game, so go on with your vision and don't compromise for the sake of an illusory easy approval.
Thank you! I want my story to be an entertaining, grounded, well rounded, all you can fuck buffet. I like to think of it as a derivative of Madmen or some other popular TV show but one in which we get to see all the fucking.
I'd be very happy with a harem ending. Because I like to have my cake and eat it too, but I definitely enjoy a good story and having to work on the girls to get them happy with it.
Look forward to the next update
RomanHume !
Look forward to bringing it to you! Believe me, no one wishes I could produce this game faster than I do!
Cheers mate!
