This 100%.
The choice already exist to keep things on friends only terms with Fiona. The dev can't account for every people's desires, specially people on a pirate forum.
Hard disagree on that. This update was focused on the consequences of the choices in the previous update: sex between Ashe and Fiona or just a friendly sleepover; date night with Vanessa; flirting and sex with Lexi.
All those are direct consequences of what the players decided on update 0.4.
That is nowhere near a kinetic novel level.
There will be a public release in november but it already leaked here.
I think what ppl are frustrated abt is more the fact that since now they are on the siren route ("dom route"). They'd have liked it if they could refuse
Fiona fucking Ash. Honestly I'm a siren route main and I didn't feel like
Fiona was topping (lol).
The whole thing seemed more vanilla than anything. Like I said in a previous com it even leaned more towards Ash
topping with her finishing on cowgirl pose and launching a near facial on Fiona.
I also see a lot of ppl talking abt how
Fiona was obviously going to dom us. I don't think that's necessarily true. Plenty of ppl have super "dommy" behaviour but in bed, with the right ppl. They become subby and super freaky lol.
To prove what I'm saying I played a variation where I still had dom points but enough sub points to get that Fiona's dream scene. The
sex scene with Fiona went a bit differently in that case.
While still on the sirene path, Ash was less "bossy"
with her and she came 1st. Plus, instead of getting the cowgirl position we get a sort of spoon position and Fiona either cum on our face or in our mouth.
I think this is a pretty big difference. It proves that like you said, our previous decisions had consequeces. So for all those that played that dream scene bc they were curious abt it. I'd advise them not to, atleast if they want to go full dom.
I think this proves that we may have a dom path with Fiona.
Maybe not for now but as Ashe gets more experienced I can clearly see that happening.
So yeah, for those like me who don't mind Ash
being penetrated as long as she keeps her dom role. I think dev/s have some things in store for us. I was honestly affraid we'd fall in the typical if you
take it you're a sub but happy to see the dev/s still remember Ash is a duplo and
the things penetrating aren't lifeless strapon which are impossible to dominate lol
(yk since the partner can't feel anything lol).
I still think there should have been an outing for those that didn't want
Ash to be f1cked. Maybe a 69 scene instead would have been ok in that case. Or a way to completely avoid it, even if it meant resetting
Fiona to the friend only status. It's true that the choice existed but it existed b4 the branching routes plus nothing specifically said that
we'd be the ones fucked and not the other way around.
I think as a dev/s you always have to strive for "the optimal way" in your capacity ofc. And I rly think adding this wasn't impossible for dev/s nor is it too far-fetched story wise. It's not abt it being a pirate site. It's abt knowing what the customers want and adapting to the demands while still managing to keep your signature.
On the contrary having access to this many opinions is a blessing in disguise. As some of them potentially show what a future clientele wants or what some patreon members feel but aren't as numerous as they'd like to make their voices heard. Why sacrifice the minority when you CAN keep them all happy. The keyword is "can", the fact is, I don't think it'd be that much of a hassle for dev/s to add that variation to the sirene path.
I admit though that the only way I see Ash dom other futas is by using her advantage
of being a duplo (futas like Lexi are an exception ofc). Yk make them crave having a taste of such rare delicacy lol.
If the dev/s saw it that way, then maybe just make a path where they decide it'd be better to play the safe option and keep being friends.
Like I said, I'm personally very turned on by the idea of domming with both
d1ck and pu$$y but maybe for others it ain't the case. So yeah considering them is the way to go I think.
Oh and yeah this is nowhere near what a kinetic novel looks like lol.
