For now, only way for protagonist to have sex with Macy is tied to Denise "path", in the future updates will it be possible to have romantic (sexual) relationship with Macy, while having platonic one with Denise.
I go on a bit of a ramble here, and I do apologise. The tl;dr is that I appreciate NR's work.
When I play a VN that is new to me, the first thing I do is skip through all of the dialog. Whenever an option comes up I select the one least likely to end in sex or even friendliness. I'm testing the game to see if other characters hurl themselves upon my MC with wild abandon - even when he's as repellant as possible. Are the girls single-minded two-dimensional objects?
Not in this game, even though the nature of the relationships between the main characters complicate my method.
VNs that pass that test and aren't tagged as 'harem' then get multiple play-throughs, wherein I dedicate a save to each character that I fancy. I also bother reading all of the text and seek out sympathy-worthy drama, some clever titillation, and what-have-you.
Here, Denise and Macy's paths seem more-or-less inextricable. I mean, you technically can seperate them... The office girls are somewhat bundled in a similar way. They're a clique - a close association. What began as a seperate save file for Denise, Macy, and each office girl ultimately became a single save file, as I realized there was no conflict in distributing my affection everywhere I could. I have no love for harems, and even though I incidentally constructed one it doesn't
feel like one. Which is right, as this is not a harem game.
Anyway, NR makes the kind of material that lambastes the stresses of my life like little else. Quite therapeutic. Love it. If you manage to find some meaning or value in reading this, then I tip my hat to you. Either way, cheers!
