In case of my project, I expect that the teens will have had some experience in naturist environments, so I expect them to be a little ore advanced about knowledge and risk.

That reminds me of the tired, old porn trope of a character seeing another naked and they are so aroused they have to start masturbating then and there. It strikes me as rather silly (immature) and unrealistic--especially for someone who has had sexual experience. A person would have to be very badly socialized to act they way many do in porn.

Lol right on,it's so stupid, not to mention when The MC gets a boner simply from staring at a girl. Lol Like you must be the most virginiest virgin to get a boner from simply looking at a girl's cleavage or maybe just sex starved idk but in most of these VNs dude be fucking a girl every second and still acts like a kid who've never seen a nipple before. Like where's the logic and realism, if you get that much action surely you should be use to it by now.

"Realistic games" would be boring though.
The whole point of games, is to escape reality/live fantasies you might never even attempt in real life :)

Yeah but realistically would you drop your shorts and jerk off while you watch someone showering(actually don't answer that lol) but my point is I get that some people play these games as an escape from reality but isn't it tiresome having the same immature shit in every VN you play. One of the reasons why Hillside for me, is one of the best VNs is because it has none of those overlyused tropes most VNs have and the MC is not a horndog. But I guess it's preferences at the end of the day, some like myself play these VNs for the story and characters(lewd stuff is just a side bonus) while others play it simply for the lewd stuff(story is just a side bonus)

Perhaps, but a level of suspension of disbelief needs to be possible for most to really get involved with what's going on. A game can be realistic, have some internal logic and still be interesting. IMHO at least.

I'm hoping that I can be successful with realism in my contemporary and science fiction projects. My Steampunk project will be my opportunity to play a little fast and loose with reality.

For the showering, yes, only to get hard, then I'd join.

Back on topic - I do agree that it is refreshing to have stuff other than the usual "whoops I just saw Bro/daddy's dick in the shower, it's so big", no questions there.

However, If things gets too realistic, it's just not enjoyable in my opinion, not just for adult games, but games in general.
Take other games as example, with superb plausible and realistic stories, they have next to no adult content usually, which is unfortunately, the same here.

This game does have a ton of tropes: idiot young girl, females easy to manhandle, females blackmailed,
females raped with nobody giving a damn, females assaulted with nobody giving a damn,
girls raped, girls drugged, girls stupidly in love with the movie star, jerk movie star,
good looking american pshicho jerk who makes all panties drop,
females are fragile, females cannot save themselves, no dad in the picture means
females (mom and daughters) are immediately up for grabs for any asshole out there.

We still want to root for MC because we may have all seen bodyguard, man on fire, mad max 3
and we understand all these tropes grown in games and movies for generations.

There are different games that require different tropes. You would need to suspend your disbelief while playing a cest harem game. But this game has a much more natural setting. So I expect things to be more realistic. Not to say that they are not. This is a splendid game. It's just Emma that gets on my nerves sometimes with the way she acts. And I've said this before on this thread. Charlotte and Emma's relationship reminds me of the pink Floyd song, "Mother".

"mama will put all of her fears into you
Mama will make all of your nightmares come true"

Yeah. I can't wait for the choice that completely unsexualizes Emma in my play through. Like a completely platonic relationship.

You're sick! You need therapy!!!! :)

Joking aside, yeah, I do agree that depending on the game, one may need to accept a few things they normally wouldn't, but it still doesn't mean a game should be too realistic. I mean, who wants to play something they experience each day? There's just no point to that. Just my opinion on the matter anyway.

MC should not be creasy who revenges on the kidnappers
after they dispose of the wonderful daughter.

MC should not be max peyne 3 and survive the kidnappers who
burn his VIP alive.

This game can have MC handle the play boy rapist movie star
and we can begin our love journey.

How about it?​

While you might be going a bit far, a kick in the teeth from real life, is exactly what she needs to grow up.

Nooo that just made me think of Charlotte getting her teeth knocked out by that scumbag. I don't get riled up that easily but women abuse gets my blood boiling and that scene, damn I do hope we as the MC will get a chance to make each and every one of those sob's pay for what they did. I really hope it's not ruined like Alison fall of the Apple tho where after everything those scumbags did to the MC's wife, held her hostage, abused her and raped her for years, all MC did was put a bullet in the boss's head, like naah dude that's mercy kill right there so I hope in Hillside we actually get to show those fuckers what real pain feels like.

Mr. Facepalm was probably in disbelief about the part in the patreon post where DB said that he'd try to push out shorter and faster updates.

Last update was out on 20th or 21st Nov of last year...and it has only been like two and a half month, looks like his entitlement syndrome kicked in early this year.
