Aywin wouldn't have worked as a main character. She barely worked as a character in HC2. Aywin is a giant slut in HC2, she betrays her son and late husband at almost no provocation. To make her the main character of HC2 would require a massive alteration of the core of the game. HC2 works because it's a loyal son trying to push back against the changes to the village his father spent decades building up and being unable to do anything to stop it. The impact of Aywin and Celis constant emotional and physical betrayals is only effective because of Noa. Remove him from the protagonist role and all you have left is his weak willed slut of a mom and his lying whore or an adopted sister.I think a female protag for HC4 will work great if properly implemented (Tho I hope not to be called HC4, maybe start a new series that will be it own thing) The female protagonist being corrupted is done so much becuase it works so well and can be done in many different ways.
We really need at least 1 NTR pixel'd game with a female protagonist.
As NTR pixel'd games with a male protagonist we have:
NTRPG series, Spiral Legend series(I think this one inspired N_taii a lot), D.P, Nettle pain, Black Fetal movement, 3 Henteria Chronicles and Nettle tribe coming soon.
It might be time to try something different.
Now if I think about it, HC2 would have been a lot more better with Aywin as protagonist, Even tho the game was long I never really cared for any of the characters (Hell, in the end when they broke I kinda start to hate them) Now Imagine that story from Aywin's point of view, you either let yourself fucked by the man that killed your husband or your daughter gets it (and based on your choices, both) and you also have a deeper connection with the women of the village, making their downfall a lot better.
The HC set up pretty much only works with a male main character because NTR only really works on male characters
Swap a woman in as the main character and the NTR is instantly ineffective.
