You are certainly new to this game.i'd like if there was a submissive or even dominatrix route to win the game, instead of just defaulting to game over after several consecutive defeats and only being able to avoid game over by winning every combat.
it also doesn't feel good that clearing the game is in a soft enrage as karryn will increasingly get weaker as passives are learned throughout the run, so if you want to lose a few battles on purpose to see some sex it might brick your run later down the line.
The only game over is for letting the Order fall to 0, not losing battles. You can restore order even when losing battles, which is how the game has been designed to make a submissive / fucktoy route possible and rewarding. If you want to go that route, losing on purpose is a must, as it grants a bunch of valuable passives, which make Karryn stronger, not weaker. Just make sure to also invest money in edicts that build up her vital stats and... let her fall into decadence.
