The scene where Melody "stands up" to Bethany and defends MC actually put me off so bad I almost dropped the whole game. How can it falḷ onto this girl (or any third party) to have to say "no" on behalf of MC? I could never respect such a person (MC). Honestly, the third-party as well; they both lack self-respect.
If my girl's ("""my girl""") ex boyfriend (or whoever) showed up telling her 'pack up, you're going back to my place tonight', and she couldn't find the will to say "no", in front of me, I would tell them "good night" and they would never see me again.
What a sudden and bizarre pussyfication. Up until that point the MC was a confident guy who stood up for others in multiple occasions. That scene almost felt like a cuck scene, the way the writer degraded the MC in that moment. Lost so much respect for MC there.
