come on, get that 065 ready and post it so that maybe this craze about rape will finally stop and people will start talking again about the GAME (which btw is really a good one!)

Oh shit.. it's already evening in Europe..You'll have to wait a bit more. It's an EST time zone release. Expect it in 9-10 hours.
Not even an arguement you are presenting here.Um...

Also, you should look into "rule 34". "If it exists, there is porn of it".
Right! And Romancing the Stone is about a treasure hunt, Raiders of the Lost Ark is about the Ark of the Covenant, and The Trouble With Harry and Weekend at Bernie's are about dead bodies.I suppose you also think that Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a story about the search for the Grail. These are all classic examples of MacGuffins used in films.Someone noted that this game Is a love story.
I guess even in its current state.
And noted that the rape case Is a "mcguffin".
Actually a device to progress story, but insignificant, irrelevant and unimportant in itself.
Totally clueless.
Game Is indeed a love story. But everything in Last updates Is about the rape case. Dealing with the aftermath of it. Healing haley and dealing with the rapist. Plus sex scenes.
Exactly! A love story with a plot device inserted midway through. I'm glad we agree.Game Is indeed a love story. But everything in Last updates Is about the rape case. Dealing with the aftermath of it. Healing haley and dealing with the rapist. Plus sex scenes.
I wouldn't call this a love story, especially after they seemingly doubled down on rape in .60. At least not if we can't create a relationship with Diane, Lisa, or Lisa's sister Alana(?). Possibly Sandra too if she was non-sexual abused (or Victor but he's taken). Rape just dominates too much of the story for this to not be called a rape story. Judging by what people have said about the devs, I think they'd want it to be called that but obviously I can't speak for them. They definitely want to tackle this monstrosity of an issue and calling the rape merely a MacGuffin is doing a disservice to this game and what it's attempting to accomplish.Exactly!

Then why play it anymore? No one is forcing you.I wouldn't call this a love story, especially after they seemingly doubled down on rape in .60.

10% sunk cost fallacy, 90% I want to see just how bad it's going to get. Not trying to by smug or anything, I'll never say "I told you so" unless it's something purely factual and I doubt I even will then. I'm just tired of all the people in this thread claiming others are "misinformed" while most of the time it's a difference in opinion and when it's not both sides tend to end up equally wrong.Then why play it anymore? No one is forcing you.
They hate it because they're supposed to hate it. Not everything in a good story is there for the readers to like. Some things are there to dislike or hate, unless the story is about the teletubbies.The argument about rape is pretty pointless. The fact is that like 99.9% of players fucking hate the fact that Haley tells you right after you had sex the first time that she fucking fucked a teacher when she was 15, like wtf? Almost feels like she did that on purpose to hurt the MC as much as possible. Thats absolutely the last thing I wanted to hear.
That's not what he's saying at all. You're supposed to hate that Haley was raped, but not how she tells you. It's a poorly written scene, which is bad writing.They hate it because they're supposed to hate it. Not everything in a good story is there for the readers to like.

If a reader doesn't have the guts to dig through the difficult parts of the story and drops it half way, he will miss the joy of overcoming the difficulties the characters are put through. Some readers do drop some stories that are too difficult for them to handle, there's nothing anyone can do about it. But it does not mean that the story is bad.
And you know so well that you're not supposed to hate the way she tells it? How should she serve this announcement then? With milk and cookies over a romantic dinner? Especially when she does not consider this being a rape at all?That's not what he's saying at all. You're supposed to hate that Haley was raped, but not how she tells you.

Well, she should've served the announcement some other time, either before they had sex, or maybe the next day afterward, but not DURING the afterglow of sex, THAT'S what to me was messed up, coupled with what the announcement was about, think that's what had people so riled upAnd you know so well that you're not supposed to hate the way she tells it? How should she serve this announcement then? With milk and cookies over a romantic dinner? Especially when she does not consider this being a rape at all?
You've got that right. Sisyphus had it easy. I might as well be talking to that boulder. It would be easier to get through.Walter Victor, all the respect for trying to explain literature to porn forum members
Feels like I'm watching Sisyphos pushing his boulder.
Could be she said it to try push the mc away, or some sort of self-sabotage. If thinking long term, it could be hard to maintain a healthy relationship, due to the nature and deal with people around. idk.And you know so well that you're not supposed to hate the way she tells it?

The only one who thinks this story Is a about the teletubbies Is the one upvoting you Mate.They hate it because they're supposed to hate it. Not everything in a good story is there for the readers to like. Some things are there to dislike or hate, unless the story is about the teletubbies.
