That post was written back in 2017, and the dev actually thanked him for it. So I wouldn't say it was destructive criticism.I have my cons too, but destructive criticism is what has led many DVs to abandon their games.
Getting everything right and doing everything you said in detail is only for DVs with a large team, which is not the case here... when you have a large team, each person takes care of a detail, and when you develop games alone it is hard work and to please both Greeks and Trojans you need to be a master of miracles...
There are handwriting errors, yes, but that is not so worrying, since the game is being offered for free.
As for family, Laura's concern is to be an honest wife, but when you have a shitty husband like hers who is always drunk, tired or worried even during sex, no woman can stand to be without him even in real life and will give in to temptation seeing things that she does not find in her husband. Some paths didn't work out in this game, for example Jack asks Emma for help, she accepts and they arrange a time in the afternoon and that never happens because Laura goes to the cabaret with Jack that afternoon, that was really fucked up... another example is the meeting of the brother with Emma and the 4 guys from school, if it were a Unity game it would be game over, and here it almost does but DV put something in to repeat and not let sex happen with Emma... A lot of strange things but who are we to judge after all the game is neither mine nor yours and if DV wants it that way then so be it.
NTR is generally a tragedy, even if shown in the comedic lense. I don't know if you played the first game, but Sam's background shows that the reason why he is the way he is is because he sacrifices his own wants and needs for the sake of others. Of all the males on the game, he is the most noble, and the tragedy of that is his reward is an unfaithful wife.
Laura's goals seem to be having a fulfilling sex life without losing her husband in the process. She proves to be annoyingly jealous of Sam and tries to keep him faithful often while cheating on him. If I could hazard a guess at her true desire, it would be to have a fulfilling sex life with Sam, but he is too distracted to provide this for her.
The tragedy for Laura is that the one thing that would probably get her what she wanted would be to help Sam...but she's too busy helping herself. And when she does help Sam, it is often at the secret expense of his dignity.
