I believe if you are looking for a scene where Haley has sex with any guy other than the MC, you will be greatly disappointed.Can you bang your sister yet?
And will there be a corruption path? Make her a hoe?
Some game have pretty good Audio.I never listen to the audio. The first thing I do in the Preferences, after making sure the text speed is at max, it to mute the Music and Voice Sounds. I don't care what music they provide. I've got better music to listen to. This morning I listened to Prokofiev and Sam Cooke. Yesterday, among others, it was Erroll Garner, Bix Beiderbecke, Copland and Philip Glass.
Maybe if John Williams or Danny Elfman ever provides the score for a porn game, I'll up the audio.
If anything, Haley corrupted MC and is in the process of corrupting Sandra.Yes, you've been able to bang her for quite a while now. I don't see any evidence of corruption being a thing, though. She likes to be dominated and sometimes will suggest something herself, but I don't see the MC corrupting her at all.
I'm on the Haley only path... It's my canon path (This is how much I love her character. I currently also have Lisa, since I liker her personality and loyalty to Sandra, but I there is a hint of conflict with Haley, I will drop her as well.)You won't be able to get there in Ep5, unless you 'volunteer for the position' in Ep3 (Adriana-Richard/MC-Haley double date)
So unless you volunteered, you'd have to go almost back to the beginning
I only do the path that comes natural to me. Bugger the rest.I'm on the Haley only path... It's my canon path (This is how much I love her character. I currently also have Lisa, since I liker her personality and loyalty to Sandra, but I there is a hint of conflict with Haley, I will drop her as well.)
Once the game is completed I'm going to do a Sandra Haley path and a Andrea path.
I was thinking exactly the same thing as I typed my earlier response.If anything, Haley corrupted MC and is in the process of corrupting Sandra.
Agreed 100% all the "aggression" ,pardon the pun, in the relationship comes from Haley.I was thinking exactly the same thing as I typed my earlier response.
I've been saying for a long time that even though you're "playing" her brother, Haley's the actual MC of this game. Which makes sense, since it's right there in the title and everything.If anything, Haley corrupted MC and is in the process of corrupting Sandra.
Victor introduces the MC to Sandra (at the squash courts) in the very first release of this game and the MC takes an immediate interest. Later (when Victor and Alana fail to show up), Sandra and the MC play squash together, and things grow from there. At that point, Haley doesn't even know that Sandra exists. When she does, while Haley doesn't interfere with that romance, she teases the MC mercilessly about Sandra idiosyncracies. When things start getting serious between Sandra and the MC, Haley accepts it, but it's only at the time that the game splits into two routes that Haley begins her campaign of manipulation. Up until that point, Sandra is just another LI for the MC that Haley accepts to be able to stay with the MC.I'm not even on the Sandra path but when I still played it, it was all Haley Manipulating everything.
Exactly. Haley only turns her wiles on Sandra when she becomes the potential partner/third/beard/whatever she's going to be. Everything before then is her subtly (and sometimes not-so-) enticing her brother, like the time by the pool.it's only at the time that the game splits into two routes that Haley begins her campaign of manipulation
If the developers had made Haley the MC of this game, then what difference would there be from all the other female-protagonist games out there? Would I play such a game? Probably. I already play a bunch of them. But I don't see how the relationship between the two of them would have improved. On the contrary, the uniqueness of the way this game has been crafted is what has drawn me to it, like a moth to an inferno.I've been saying for a long time that even though you're "playing" her brother, Haley's the actual MC of this game. Which makes sense, since it's right there in the title and everything.
I understand the various reasons why the devs didn't do it that way, but to be honest I'd kinda like to see that game. One wouldn't even have to change all that much. She could keep him all to herself or push him (and later perhaps herself) into whatever other relationships she finds interesting/amusing/potentially helpful. She could choose just how much D/s play they engage in. She could choose to be kind or cruel to her ostensible boyfriend, breaking it off early or stringing him along indefinitely (with the potential consequences that might ensue). And, to be honest, it would be a lot more interesting if she got to choose whether to keep bottling up the Klaus experience, attempt healing strictly via therapy, or call in the sharp knives. Haley making the latter choice is both more consequential and more emotionally resonant than her brother doing it; from him it's still intervening in a way she's not yet ready to accept, much less approve.
The one real advantage to making her brother the MC (other than the fact that there are people who won't play female protagonist games...which makes me sad, but oh well) is that she gets to be more of a cipher and reveal information and feelings on a schedule out of her brother's control. It makes her a more intriguing and beguiling character.
Honestly, you're revealing yourself as part of the problem.If the developers had made Haley the MC of this game, then what difference would there be from all the other female-protagonist games out there?
Dual POV, no question. We have to see her brother's sex scenes.Most female MC's are not very smart (to put it nicely) in order for them to be blackmailed, corrupted, raped and who knows what else. They aren't story drivers, they're used for fetish content. Haley on the other hand is really smart, she is the one pulling the strings in almost every situation during the game.
Haley's past situation with Klaus would fit in nicely in most female MC games. Old creeper manipulating a young girl to be his sex-thing. But Haley in the current timeline is moving past that, and is growing as a character.
This game, with Haley as MC, wouldn't be any different than it is now. Everything would fit seamlessly, all you would need to do is make new scenes for when there are MC-only scenes and Haley wasn't around.
And just what part of which problem am I exactly? EDIT: Could we possibly converse without insulting one another?Honestly, you're revealing yourself as part of the problem.
The story would've been the same story. Haley's long-simmering desire for her brother. Pushing him towards other women because she's still struggling with putting her feelings into action. Letting him amuse himself because the full intensity of her feelings is beyond her ability to cope. Finally making her feelings clear but pointing out that it can't affect his romantic life. Acting on her desires but acknowledging that they can never be public. Hiding their relationship from everyone. Encouraging him to sleep with someone/others to hide their relationship. Trying to turn those other sexual relationships into something that can hide theirs.
What's the difference between that and the story we've gotten? Zero percent difference.
Do you really think that's how most female-protag games work? Because give me the links, then. Most of the ones I've played are Bambi in Lechertown.
Sure. Explain how reversing the POV of this story makes it no different "from all the other female-protagonist games out there." I'm just switching the POV, not turning Haley into a fuck-whoever character.And just what part of which problem am I exactly? EDIT: Could we possibly converse without insulting one another?
Honestly, you're layering so very many layers of trauma onto what I said.One problem with your scenario would be the overwhelming temptation to turn the game into 'Bambi in Lechertown', which is exactly what the idiots who show up here on occasion want.
Because, as I wrote above, it becomes every other female-protagonist story that has a 'faithful' route. There are dozens of them. It becomes Elena's Life, where Elena turns down all advances, and stays true to her fiance. That one comes immediately to mind without checking my notes. But I know that others abound, because I've played them.Sure. Explain how reversing the POV of this story makes it no different "from all the other female-protagonist games out there."

I still say that half the fun in this game is not knowing what is going on inside Haley's head. Make her the MC, and we lose most of that. And with Haley as the MC, how many of us would give a damn what is going on in her brother's head. He's a male. We already know what's going on there regarding his hot, twin sister. Of course he would be reluctant, as he is now. But the same things that Haley did in the current game would work in that one. What you would need to do to make it work would be to add some trauma to his past to give him a fucked-up psyche, as was done here with Haley, and make Haley the more stable personality. And I still wouldn't care as much as I do now, with Haley as she is.I want to tell the very same story. From Haley's POV. There's no Bambi in Lechertown there. There's Haley in love with her twin brother and slowly discovering her ability to turn his libido to her advantage. And then finally conquering him. And then what happens after. The person you don't know is no longer Haley, it's her brother.
