That's what I'm saying. Dev told me she is an LI. But, don't take my word for it, like others. They still don't believe it.

I think you did quite well. I really enjoyed the start of your story and remember everyone is going to try to shift your focus from the story you want to tell to the story they want you to tell so don't take it too hard, most players are going to be ok with the majority of what you have planned from what I have read in the thread and the OP so just know this is one of the best starts for a new title I have seen in a long time keep your chin up and enjoy your creative process as you go I know I am looking forward to more. Good luck.There's nothing exclusive going on between them yet, so I could theoretically write a way around it/give the option to the player at the beginning of episode 2 to turn down her advances. That he's having second thoughts, or something of that nature.
The reason she's forced is because I couldn't come up with a good way to introduce a harem itself to the protagonist without having a girl he's with bring it up first. It why WVM did it this way, among a number of other harem VNs. You can't just have your protagonist start thinking "Oh, I'm going to date a whole bunch of girls and they're suddenly going to be okay with each other."
I suppose one way of going about it is introducing all the girls, getting to know them better, start dating one of them, and then have one of them bring up the harem idea at some point. At which point, you could start easing other girls into it or stick with the solo route. I'm open to ideas, though.
I'll have it figured pretty soon. Just need to sit on it.
Glad you enjoyed it.
As far as the volume of the sound effects, I'm not sure what would be causing that. Maybe it's how I'm queuing them. Will look into that. And I'm fine with comparisons (there's probably already a few obvious ones), as long as I'm not being accused of ripping anything off or outright stealing.
Dev confirms it once again here. Ivy is in the banner so she is a LI.
I wouldn't worry about that one dude insisting otherwise. Him dead naming Ivy pretty well perfectly gave it away that he just doesn't want her to be one.

Come on! So you're telling me, we can't romance her? Man she's a lovable character. I wanna love her, kiss her, tell her that I'm gonna be with her everytime. I wanna hug her in the kitchen, kiss her little neck and pull her for a real kiss! Then do naughty things with her, you know both of us will enjoy it! Don't deny us the most lovable character!

But this is not "the internet", this is supposed to be an erotic game. And in this game, we have several gorgeous women independent of each other spouting incel-edgelord internet-rethoric regarding lbtq/trans to someone who's supposed to be a stranger to them. So sure, the dev is allowed to do that (free country and all), but for me, it lowers the quality of the game, because it ruins my immersion by reminding me that these characters are not real and only the voice of, what is most likely, one dude with an axe to grind (because in reality, that would never happen).Finally, a couple 4 star reviews that seem to take off a point because they don't like the "politics" of the author. I guess that goes to show; never discuss or present an opinion on geopolitical or sociopolitical topics on the internet. It's not allowed!!But, seriously, keep doin' what your doin', MissFortune. Well, as long as you write what I like.
You *can* do politics in games without it destroying the game, but that means doing it subtle and in a way that's believable. Not by having the game or the characters in it scream in the players face "this is how you should think!!!!!!".

As for Yuna pushing him into it (so to speak.), I don't know yet. I'm still sort of flipping ideas back and forth. How I go about it depends on how naturally I can write it. Yuna still may be a 'forced' LI, maybe not. I'll update once it's decided.
Totally forgot about the catch rules. Might have to brush up on the little stuff. Thanks.
agreed. It's great to see an MC who isn't a simp or yes man and that has known true struggle and yet actually rose above it without being a tech nerd or inherited a business of some kind.
I do agree that some of it gets a little too in your face, but you've also got to consider the setting of the game. Texas isn't exactly a progressive stronghold in America. The same year that China opened its first youth transgender clinic politicians in Texas started drafting what's commonly referred to as anti trans legislation. While I've never been there to discuss transgender issues with Texans I'm guessing the character's probably match public perception there pretty decently. You're likely bound to find people even in a high end professional setting making regressive comments about "apache helicopter people".
For what it's worth there's about a 50/50 that I'll use the censor patch, not because I dislike that the dev put those jokes in, but because I just think it'll make the characters making those jokes more likeable.

Why should we like people like that? We have those types of people posting in this thread. I don't like them, I don't want to like them. I'm far from being politically correct, but fuck me runnin. These people are so fuckin annoying. There's no need for all this over-the-top bullshit. So, no. I don't want to like them.
I want to like them because at the end of the day I'm really only here to jerk off. If a hot chick says something that makes me not like her, but I'm given the optional to make her not say it I'm going to at least consider taking that option. Since I don't ever reject anyone in harem games it just makes it more enjoyable for me to not have to worry about it.
Someone making the apache helicopter joke to me in person would be no bueno but if that's my only issue with her then I'll just use the patch and pretend the line doesn't exist.

Fuck me...
Imma gettin' ma money back from that no good lyin' Service Provider! He told me this would be the internet!The fact that you think I have any clue what the hell you just tried to say there tells me there are a LOT of things about the way you think that I don't want to know.
"but", in this case, meaning disregard what was just said... Aaaaaannnnndddddd I rest my case.

I actually liked the scene, and in my opinion it made sense given Ivy's personality: she's a total sub and Renee comes along and pushes her to take that first step.
But because Renee is a deplorable pervert, she interjects herself into the situation because she wants some fun too.
Honestly, the only thing I would have changed is to have MC lean over and whisper into Ivy's ear "The safe word is pineapple. You say that, and we stop, no hard feelings". I think something like that would show that MC is okay being a very dominant lover, that Ivy is totally okay with being a bottom buttslut, and that Ivy (not MC, not Renee) was the one truly in charge of that situation.
For me, the explicit consent to be treated like a sex toy is the hottest aspect: Ivy desperately wants what's happening, and Renee and MC can see it, but they know she's too shy to ask for it so they take what they want with Ivy having the safety of knowing she can shut it all down.
That would have been the chef's kiss.

Texas isn't exactly the conservative stronghold it used to be either. And here we're talking about, among others, a teacher and a lawyer, meaning university educated professional women. Not exactly the kind of people most likely to both think and sound like a shitposter on 4chan. And I repeat, two of them talk like this to a stranger who they can't know for sure how he is going to react. Most people are, regardless of ideology, more careful with out of the blue introducing their divisive political opinions to strangers, and clients/customers no less.
But even so, one brass, cursing and shit talking super conservative university educated lady would be fine. People can be different. The real problem for me is that it's not one, not two, but three different women who, in the span of a couple of days in game and a couple of minutes for the player, spout the same kind of unlikely opinions in the same kind of unlikely language. Then it's not one different character, but the dev screaming his political views to my face. And that ruins the immersion for me.
At least two thirds of those words are found in this very game we're talking about. But maybe you didn't understand it then either? Could be the reason you're defending it...The fact that you think I have any clue what the hell you just tried to say there tells me there are a LOT of things about the way you think that I don't want to know.
I guess you forgot that you were complaining about a review docking the game one star for being overly political. I gave you an explanation for why this is annoying (I agree with the reviewer). If you don't want to understand, that's up to you."but", in this case, meaning disregard what was just said... Aaaaaannnnndddddd I rest my case.
