Hey Trope, Jus' wanna say hey! Also, hey forum folks!
*drowns in deep waves* *something deep and meaningful*
No - he had been lamenting that with the large cast, it would likely take a while to get back around to Debbie - a sentiment with which I can sympathize - and then followed up with the "Don't take the hate" comment. However, it WAS a comment that came after that about Maddie that prompted the connection in my brain between the Maddie guy and the current commentary.Did you reply to the wrong person?
Maddie is the store clerk with the cat named Zeus. She had three potential paths (well, four if you count "no path" as a path): romance, dom and sub - all mutually exclusive. However, with all of the permutations in the VN with so many LIs, scripting and rendering three different paths, with and without pregnancy, for the entire course of the VN, proved to be a bridge too far, so, as you'll see/have seen in Season 3, after seeing the family dynamic, she has a change of heart about having a dom/sub relationship (from either direction) and wants to follow a romantic path, the way the other girls do. It was for practicality and is simply an evolution of a casual relationship that starts one way, but becomes something more eventually. No intentional bait-and-switch, but simply a streamlining of the design since the orignal vision was a complication that, ultimately, was something unnecessary and, honestly, at odds with the overall tenor of the VN.1 - which one was Maddie?
2 - I am not sure what is your point. Path-baiting is the cancer of VN's, and if there's femdom path that merges with the opposite - that's just plain bad design.
Writing a game for the first time is a learning experience (and I'm not trying to look for excuses about what I did wrong). I hope the second game still is.On a related note, I will say that season 2 has been difficult to get through for me. Meaning no disrespect at all, and hoping to not draw too much fire, the bulk of the cast means that it gets SO repetitive. You keep having the same conversations with every character with only little variations. Even the sex scenes feel very repetitive.
There is just so many different character types that all sorts of sexual dynamics could have been explored, but it hits me personally as sort of cookie cutter.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
That is so far at least. I haven't finished season 2 yet. It does leave me kind of concerned about how things are gonna go when the next set of students arrive.
Maddie is the Asian store girl. It wasn't path-baiting. It was an experiment that didn't turn out like I would have liked.1 - which one was Maddie?
2 - I am not sure what is your point. Path-baiting is the cancer of VN's, and if there's femdom path that merges with the opposite - that's just plain bad design.
Didn't want this to get lost in the last comment. However, a little harebrained speculation (that maybe is already resolved and I'm not there yet):
While that may have already been proposed and discussed, I haven't been as active on the site over the last year and could easily have missed it. If it's already happened (I'm only part way through "release 22" and about to have pastries with Sam), well, I guess I'll find out soon enough!You don't have permission to view the spoiler content.

Hey Trope, Jus' wanna say hey! Also, hey forum folks!
This just seems appropriate at the moment...*drowns in deep waves* *something deep and meaningful*
I wasn't really reffering to your work (I clearly don't remember the case discussed here), just - again - shouting to the ether about general state of the environment.It wasn't path-baiting.
You certainly write a lot for someone who can't really read.lamenting
