I had never heard of NTS before this game found its way to me. The characters are charming, so I gave it a try. After playing through it, the character I liked the most was Anya—or at least, I think she has the most potential.
I’ve seen comments arguing that Anya’s scene isn’t NTR, through Eric’s and Anya’s perspectives, with plenty of logic and reasoning to back that up. And honestly, they’re absolutely right. But I think they’re missing something important: us—the players.
We experience the story as Eric. And with how the dev has built things up—presenting Anya as someone who has feelings for Eric—it’s almost inevitable that (some of/minority of) players will feel NTR’d (/betrayed) by the way her scene plays out. That said, I’m not saying the game is bad—it’s a great game overall. It’s just personal preference when it comes to NTR/S.
Personally, my expectation for Anya’s first sexual interaction was that she peeps Eric and Vi having sex, gets caught in the act, and then Vi invites her to keep watching. Anya ends up masturbating while they continue, and all three climax together. A scene like that could’ve opened up more possibilities for future interaction—between Anya, Eric and Vi. Of course, that’s just my expectation, not necessarily what the dev intended.
Anyway, in short, “The direction Anya’s story took wasn’t what I expected—and I really didn’t like it!”, just want to vent a little, haha.
