I'm looking for games, preferably made in Ren'Py or RPG Maker (no HTML or text-only), where you play as a male main character born into extreme privilege. Like the son of a mega-rich CEO or royalty. The fantasy is that he's feared and respected solely because of his inherited status. He doesn’t earn his power, but inherits it. He himself is a very weak person with no skills, but he keeps that power throughout the game.
He can be selfish, arrogant, or cruel, and people (especially servants or employees, guards, bodyguards ,etc.) must obey him out of fear and must tolerate his tantrums, while he faces no consequences. Personality of the MC doesn't matter that much for me; he can be kind. What matters is that others fear him, and the story should emphasize this power dynamic, where he gets away with anything just because of who his family is. People don't see him for who he is, but for the power of his family.
Ideally, he has a harem of maids, servants, or subordinates who serve him regardless of how he acts. Think Joffrey Baratheon from GoT, everyone hates him, but are too afraid to resist. Or Elon Musk and his 14 children with different assistants. Or dictators around the world. He may also have bodyguards or an army enforcing his will. He doesn't need to be a ruler. Being a privileged heir with real power is enough. It is about that fantasy that can be reached irl only by a few people.
The games don't need to match every detail, but this theme of unearned, absolute power with no consequences should be central. I'm open to any recommendations and may update this with games I like. I accept all recommendations anytime, even if this thread gets old.
