Don't get me wrong, but I have a few BUTs.
1. For me as a player, they will still be a lost LI (read on like a whore). I don't really care what, how or why. It's a matter of perception.
2. What you wrote is very similar to what the dudes wrote above. The game becomes a simulation (Don't let another dick touch your girls). Well, again, a return to the fact that in my perception these girls = whores. It doesn't really matter who, how or why. You can discuss for a long time, but the question of perception is closed for me personally.
3. The question is still open. It doesn't matter if Mc changes, transforms or something else. There's the player and the Mc who put in the effort, there's Brad who puts in a lot less effort, and there are the girls who have to be kept "on a leash" all the time so they don't run into someone's dicks. This does not change and will not change, because the characters of the girls are already set that way. It doesn't matter if Mc destroys Brad or not, such chads will appear every time, and every time the girls must be put on a leash.
4. If Brad is such a well-written character, wouldn't it have been easier to make a game about him right away? I mean, the game is about a manipulative chad who fucks everything he can with manipulation and charm. I just get the impression that prescribing Brad is way better than Mc. And that's in a harem game.
5. But seriously, I still want to know if this is a harem game or just a visual novel game with a sandbox. It's just that I regard her as a harem, and if this is not so, then my indignation is misplaced. I'm judging by the poster and description.
Again, if I sounded rude, I'm sorry.
