Yeah, KC has said from the beginning that he never liked the "grave outcomes" in these sorts of stories, and the main point of MGE was to create a setting where it could be lovey dovey without that. This shows itself in literally everything he himself made, but in the early years he did some art for Doujin works with a different worldview. This has definitely shifted, with KC openly saying on twitter he cannot bear such stories anymore as they are too tragic:In addition to KC being a better artist than all the others involved in the original MGQ 10 years ago, his designs mostly boil down to "hot girl with added monster/inhuman traits", whereas in MGQ a major chunk of the girls range from "nope" to "HELL NO!" It's understandable for a game about monster girls to be varied in where the designs fall on the monster-to-girl ratio, but the problem is that, especially near the end, the girls transcended from "monster" to straight-up unsightly abominations that made the game incredibly unfappable.
For MGE, even my most disliked designs boil down to their appeals just not being my thing, rather then their designs being inherently repulsive.
I'd say it's more than just that. MGE came first, and he was probably delighted to work on Quest since it drew clear inspiration from his work, but the latter's popularity kinda cemented the idea among the fandom that all monster-girl content needs to be exclusively femdom with healthy servings of snuff and cruelty. Which, judging by this demo, is the complete opposite of what KC's actual kinks are. So if he hoped Quest would get more people into monster girls he got his wish, but it was definitely a monkey paw sort of situation. Just speculation, but it would definitely help explain why he's so defensive and strict about his setting.
Personally I'm glad he knows exactly what he wants from monster girls because this game strikes the exact niche I've been wanting from the subculture for basically ever. The girls are extremely aggressive, but not cruel. Naturally dominant, but they'll let you take the reins without complaint and in some cases even encourage you to do so. Lovey-dovey, sweet, and caring to the max, which makes the contrast to them being uber lewd and utterly cock-crazed even hotter. It's great, and ironically despite MGE being one of the earliest pieces of monster girl content it's a breath of fresh air from the tired "PATHETIC MALE, HOW SHAMEFUL YOU ARE TO FEEL GOOD WHILE I'M RAPING YOU" routine that's been done countless times in the last 10+ years.
