Yeah I used to be against anti slutty / one night stand LI when I first started playing AVN's. But as I played more AVN's I learned never good to judge them on a first impressions as they might end up being a character I love. To use this game as a example Nicki is kind of a good example of this actually. I disliked Nicki initially cause I wasnt into her looks cause of her short hair ( im picky when it comes to short hair). But after getting to know her she is my favorite character and in my top 10 LI list.
Well, i do recommend checking her path. It's actually pretty interesting. It explains why she is using Valleygirl speak and clearly shows us that she isn't your cliche ditzy bimbo.
that part when we learned about her made me want to make her my favorite character but Nicki just had an slight edge for me cause she had something else I loved in a LI.
It makes me wonder bro.Yes, age doesn't really matter when it comes to power imbalances, hell younger people can have power over older people in relationships, it's not as common, but it happens. Each relationship is different, it's not black and white that's for sure. I don't agree with this really though..
..I definitely don't think most younger women or men, in a relationship with a significantly older person, have power over their partner. It depends on the circumstances of their relationship, but I generally believe that most older people hold a monetary and/or career advantage over a younger partner. And I feel like in the majority of these relationships, the older person knows they can always find another young attractive person if their partner suddenly left them, therefore the younger person is the one with pretty much everything to lose. (Granted young attractive people can always find someone else too, but it's not as easy to find a single well-off person, when compared to a well-off person finding a young attractive partner)
In the cases where the older person isn't rich, and isn't some big shot doctor, actor, musician, etc... then the power imbalance either doesn't exist, or the younger person can actually hold the advantage, since they have not nearly as much to lose. The older one would be much more willing to do whatever to get their young attractive partner to stick with them. Though in general these relationships where the significantly older one isn't rich and/or has a top tier career, tend to be more founded in love anyways, in general those relationships come off as far less shallow in my opinion. It's not to say that all relationships that have some kind of imbalance, aren't founded in love, because quite a lot of them definitely are.
Anyways, this is the last I'll say on this topic, I don't mind discussing these sorts of topics, but I don't wanna flood the thread too much with it.
The fifty shades of grade director gets plenty of shit for meeting her husband of 12 years when he was 18. It's just not as prevalent with older women as women generally tend to favor financial security over looks.
Oh I absolutely agree, I am always more drawn to games with interesting characters rather than outright lewds, which is a bit nonsensical I suppose but it is what it is.Quetzzz said:
Absolutely, but this isn't real life nor do we only run into her once, people tend to use games for escapism so carrying the same societal prejudice (for lack of a better term) just seems a bit weird to me. Games are an opportunity to do things we don't normally do.Quetzzz said:
I'm in the same camp, I wasn't interested at all since she's just not the type of character that I enjoy, and through the same thought of her coming across as sweet I kept her around as a friend and she definitely did score some points later on for me. Even enough for me to reconsider her as a potential LI for next playthrough.Quetzzz said:
Ofc trying to be fair that can happen to both sexes, but as you mentioned men are more visual and pursue youth and beauty.
That's just not the way I play. I don't pursue every LI just because it's a game and I can. I'd be perfectly happy with a celibate playthrough if none of the LI appeal to me. Though I also try to listen to what the MC wants.
That's entirely fair, to each their own and we all enjoy things in different ways. I also do take MC's musings into consideration in games, and I too can end up just not being interested in any LI's so I do understand where you're coming from on that part.
I'm alone in this quest but a corruption fake tits bimbo Mason would be kino.
