Yeah, I kind of hate watch the tread now. I play it just to see how bad it has become. I do the same with a few games LOL.
I am one of the people who does not enjoy Max. /ducks for cover
The Kate story REALLY fell apart the moment Max showed up in her story line. While that's not ALL Max's fault, the corruption was losing any sense of belivability, but with the introduction of Max the story lost quality with Kate even more. The focus shifted to be Max even on Kate's story, and Kate's story lost the things that made it work for me.
As for Max, it was ok when you were starting a sexual relationship with both Sisters. Once that settled down though it has nothing left, and it was never even that good. The Mom stuff never made sense to me, Hell NONE of the incest makes sense but it's written even worse for the mom. But I know I am in the minority about that. I just see incest as a lame gimmick of the uncreative, but it pays the bills.
