Girls are doing lewd things with each other, male MC can only watch

[Girm Ork]

I am planning to make a new game, this time with some lewd content, not just erotic as in my previous game. Since I am not really fond of traditional/vanilla sexual content, I am thinking about making a lesbian (yuri) game. And eventually, I've come around idea about male MC playing a passive role, while girls are doing lewd things. To be exact, I want to make a game about a cameraman traveling with a girls-only club and filming everything they do.

But is not it kinda NTR? NTR is not my thing and I don't make such games. So, I want to ask you the question. Is this narrative structure acceptable for you? If not, why? Do you like the role of observer? Do you like to see a male MC in the lesbian game?

Well could I fuck them at least a little bit? Maybe some other guy could come in and fuck them from time to time? Just for variety.

My only advice is be completely transparent regarding the path you took. Whenever you see flame and hate in game threads it is often due to developers surprising players with kinks the players didn't see coming. If you think a kink in your game might be controversial, be clear and transparent about it and allow people who dislike this kink to just steer away from the game, instead of investing hours and then finding out that you have decided to surprise them with a kink they hate.

So if you think a-guy-watching-two-girls-do-nasty-stuff-to-each-other-without-joining is hot, go ahead and write that game. You will find followers. Just make sure the game makes it very clear to players that the guy is not going to join the fun.

Good luck!

depends.

if it's done against the will of mc to make him jealous: it's ntr.
if it's done with mc's (willing) agreement: it's sharing.

1.Who is Ur target audience?

My target audience are those who do not like to see their waifus get f*cked by the protagonist or any other male characters. Some of them prefer games with goblins/monsters (mannequins is case of Cursed Pantsu). Some of them are looking for lesbian-only games. Some of them search for "no sexual content" games.

4.What is the role of a Male MC in a lesbian game?

He is a cameraman. He can speak with girls and encourage them to do lewd things. But he can't touch them even if he want, someone have to film everything. Well, in Cursed Pantsu there was one character like this, the Sysadmin.

Well could I fuck them at least a little bit?

Yeah, but only one inch deep.

If you think a kink in your game might be controversial

Unfortunately, I don't know if this is controversial or not. For me, it is totally OK. For someone else, who knows?

I am not sure if both cases are relevant.
Let's say that MC is an ugly bastard. And he realizes that there are no girls in the group who will ever love him. But he have a mission to film a lewd video and this is his ultimate goal. He is willing to film no matter what, even if he is jealous.

You know what they say - give him an inch and he'll take the whole arm.

Sounds like you have a solid idea for what you want! Roll with it!

I personally find lesbian only stuff kind of boring and the sex stuff kind of equally dull, but that is just my opinion and not representative of a huge audience! There is a consumer for everything, the only question is how big is that consumer pool.

If your big ploy is not much sexual content and it's more like some sort of yuri romance where the "camera" is actually just a cameraman as an actual person I guess that could work and be a potentially funny take on some stuff!

I sort of could see it playing out like some of those Girls Gone Wild shows or something.

Good luck I hope it does great!!! <3

I enjoy both NTR fetish and tease&denial fetish (as an appetizer) and what you described with the protag getting to look but not touch sounds like it clearly falls into tease & denial, not NTR. The problem is that those who hate NTR, much like the GG/lesbian fans, tend to be rabid at the mere tought that their chaste wives/virginal lesbian crush have ever laid eyes upon another human being. So unless all the women in the game only have eyes for the MC the ntr haters are gonna rage regardless, so don't count on them however few they may be.

I think vanilla fans can benefit from a slow burn tease & denial as long as the denial ends at some point, or there's at least some progress. Look but don't touch is meant to get you as excited as possible, but it's not meant to get you off. Otherwise whatever is gained from seeing things from the pov of that MC would mostly just cater to the femdom crowd who gets off to being eternally denied as opposed to getting off when the tease/denial is eventually lifted or released.

GG porn is usually too vanilla for me, yet throwing a male next to a couple of fornicating dick-dodgers adds some taboo to the situation. Will he be allowed to pull it out? Will the lesbians unintentionally look at it? Touch it teasingly? Will they slowly be corrupted in the heat of the moment until you go "I can't believe she did that!"? Maybe he'll sleepcreep them? That's the tease.

If you're just making a game about lesbians, then why is the male MC even necessary? Just make her a camerawoman and then everybody is on board with what kind of game it is. If you're committed to this "you can look but not touch" idea, that does make the game pretty NTR-ish in my opinion. I don't have much interest in a game like that.

Almost no guy will see it as NTR and I think most of those that make a fuss about it are trolling. The primal part of the male brain just doesn't see another woman as sexual competition.

The concept can work, but only if there's payoff for the male protagonist, but who knows, maybe there is an audience for lots of lesbian teasing and being left blue balled. But if there isn't, then as someone else commented, the male protagonist doesn't serve a purpose.
