Thanks
kinkyshin for clarifying on Chris's marriage. I felt like I was forgetting something there.
Thanks
Loady for commenting on military context. I was gonna say that, but I wasn't sure if that was a legitimate thing or if I might just think that because of movies I've seen, like
Starship Troopers (I wouldn't want to rely on that for military realism
)
The other thing I'd like to add right now is that the fictional characters in a story are not all necessarily going to agree with what the dev actually believes in real life. We don't know what Notty thinks, we only know what Chris thinks.
You only get the bet going if you as the MC challenge Chris's opinion, so the game includes the fact that people disagree about this issue, which is definitely true in real life.
The game also includes a variety of alien conspiracy theories which may or may not come true. Annie has some pretty out there ideas about the Ophions, it doesn't mean she's right. Having a variety of characters with different perspectives means some of those characters are going to have opinions that you'd disagree with, just like in real life.
There are definitely people who
think they can get a straight person into bed, I've been hit on by some of them. You can't say that perspective doesn't exist. And, of course, there are people who disagree with them.
The game containing characters that have various opinions does not mean that they're right about their opinions. We don't know yet how far Chris will get with Kelly, all we know is that Chris
thinks she can get further than the MC.
