I´dont think, that Victorias downfall will begin so soon. It will come eventually, but much much later.You're absolutely right. I always thought Victoria was a total talentlessness, as this photo shoot proves. When the magical genetic fairy handed out her gifts, Melanie and Monica got grace, interesting and strong characters and stunning feminine figures, while Victoria got a unique combination of meanness, cunning and stupidity...and yes, a flat ass too.
Seriously though, I hope this is the long awaited beginning of Victoria's end. Plot armor can't last forever, especially when with each successive update it gets harder and harder to explain why a woman as powerful as Melanie can't deal with the situation once and for all by, say, hiring thugs and kidnapping that blonde bitch and then getting her to hand over the compromising materials to Monica and Melanie. Or come up with a more elegant plan, since she's free and has a lot of powerful friends. I'm sure the same Mr Campbell could help her, Victoria is nothing to him.
Personally, I see (as I have written many times before) this situation with Victoria and her "harem of girlfriends" as a plot construct that cannot exist in a "dormant state" for too long. When Victoria, as a common concubine of a lawyer, blackmails the Senator's daughter (not to mention the powerful and wealthy Melanie), such foolishness usually ends with the corpse of the person who tried to blackmail such people being found at the bottom of the river. But since the Fashion Business is not The DeLuca Family and there is no Italian Mafia in our game yet, I see a resolution to this situation at least in the occasional role reversal where Victoria loses her monopoly on dominating and humiliating the others and gets back everything she did to her "girlfriends".
The ideal model for me (imho) is the VIP Escort, where all the girls compete with each other, form alliances, play for different teams, set up nasty things and humiliate each other. If something similar were to be done to Victoria and her girlfriends, in my opinion it would look a lot more interesting than when the "game is one goal" (Victoria's goal). But for that to happen, Victoria's "plot armor" would definitely have to be broken.
In the case of Melanie it is even quite the opposite. Victoria will have her revenge und humilate her even more.
It is pretty obvious, that Victoria is a asset of a very powerful man/woman or organisation and as long as she is useful, they will shield her. I think Victoria has some kind of liberties by achiving the goals, but in the end the harem of girls has a purpose.
But we don´t know it at this point.
You see, Monica and Melanie are playing both a rigged game, so they cannot win at this point of time.
Maybe later someting will change, but only DM can tell
In generell the game is getting better and better.
I like it how Monica is slowly eroding and come more and more to terms with her degraded life.
It is quite interesting, that it feels now much more natural to see her in cheap slutty cothes.
In its genre it is the best game out there at the moment.
