As a tester and reviewer who has actually played both Dyed in White and similar titles, I can confirm that it’s true—especially in Dyed in White, the game forces you to go through the NTR routes before you can unlock the so-called “happy ending.” Honestly, it’s frustrating. Unlike Henteria Chronicles 2, where the MC can still have sex scenes with Celis and other women, most other NTR games completely remove any sexual content from the “pure love” routes. That makes no sense to me. It’s as if making love to someone who genuinely loves you back is somehow wrong.
I’ve heard that some NTR creators actually dislike anything “vanilla.” Maybe they went through bad love experiences themselves, or maybe they’ve never been in a relationship at all. But one thing’s certain—they almost never include erotic scenes in happy endings, which is a shame. Of course, I get that the main appeal of NTR games is the NTR content, but still…
Personally, I prefer hybrid stories. For example, I really wish the creator of Monica Newlywed had gone further with the NTR aspect, letting the MC “reverse-NTR” Monica further by seducing other heroines— instead of seeing them being coerced by other men like it happen in the game. In the end, the previously cuckolded MC would cuckold his girlfriend, while her friends who love him get NTR’d too. It would have been better if a harem was possible, especially after Monia losed her virginity to a random guy after she was raped. She could appologize to the MC and let him beat the rapist lol.
What I truly dislike are MCs who are powerless losers—it just feels like the story is screaming “I deserve this misery.” I read a lot of NTR manga and manhwa; some are amazing, others downplay the weight of cheating by letting the MC sleep around freely, as if it carries no emotional consequence. I prefer when the women’s reactions matter—whether they accept being part of a harem or reject it, depending on their personalities.
Some games, anime, and manhwa really stand out because of that emotional depth, and I genuinely think Henteria Chronicles is one of those rare gems. That’s why I’m forever thankful to N_Taii for creating such an impactful series.
There’s also one excellent NTR game I can’t remember the title of, but I’d love to find it again. It’s set in a dystopian world where the MC and his childhood friend secretly love each other. A rich young man, whose powerful parents bought the ruined company of the student council president’s family, takes her as his slave. Eventually, he sets his eyes on the MC’s childhood friend, who’s so in love with the MC that he has to make a deal: if the MC wins a contest, he’ll get his dream job—but if he loses, the noble gets his girlfriend as a maid.
At first, the MC refuses, but his childhood friend convinces him to accept. Then you have to talk to other students and the noble to negotiate contest conditions—choosing judges, deciding the themes, etc.—but most of the judges and teachers are under the noble’s influence, making it hard to win.
What made it special is that another girl who loves the MC can help him, and he can even flirt with her. Meanwhile, his childhood friend is so devoted that she accepts shady “requests” from classmates just to learn who the MC loves, though they deceive her to corrupt her. The developer even stated it would be extremely hard to reach the good ending.
In one of the endings, even after she betrays the MC, there’s this unforgettable scene where he’s about to leave town by train. She stops him, tearfully apologizes, and begs him to let her come with him despite not being “pure” anymore—and he accepts. It’s bittersweet but genuinely touching.
I remember finding the game while searching for NTR Classroom. It also takes place in a school setting. If anyone knows the title, I’d love to hear it.
Yes, they each have their own reasons, but when I replayed Henteria Chronicles 3 from the beginning several times (after losing my saves), it became clear to me that all the women are in love with the MC—even if they never openly admit it since he’s officially with Rose. Cyanna, for example, clearly loves him deeply and sees him as more than just a brother figure.
I’d love if we could unlock an ending with her, because seeing her with that jerk really bothers me, haha. But the worst offender is the guy involved with Helen. I read somewhere that in the newer updates, she even lets him assault other women while knowing it’s wrong? Maybe I misunderstood, but her behavior has become really disappointing. I’m curious which of them will end up being the least forgivable.
In any case, all of them are so sexually sensitive and overcharged that they end up surrendering to pleasure and forgetting their pain entirely.
