AFAIK medieval societies were of the notion "if it bleeds, it breeds", age of consent/majority is more of a modern invention

The cave sequence with Kira is honestly getting exhausting...I thought I'd romance her too because why not but holy shit she is NOT that interesting. It just keeps going on and on and on. It stopped being fun a long time ago.

Yeh this story could be done a bit quicker, that I agree...
(I mean the island story, I was hoping him to be a god, fly through the heavens or so... But no, he first needs to fuck everyone).

Meh, whatever. MC has been gone for a long time. If Eliza gets bored and wants to off the bar wench, I'm not going to lose sleep over it.
There is something that really annoys me with the Selena situation:
Why can't we punish her for what she did? I get the whole angle of becoming the monster and all that but the game only allowing us to taking it out on her sister is trash. Her sister did nothing wrong. If you want to be technical a purely 100% eye for an eye retaliation would be breaking the back of Selena's sister but I don't even want that...why can't we like break of of Selena's hands or something. Not even as sever as never being able to walk again. But even if the choice is purely to kill or not to kill and nothing else, why can't we punish the one actually responsible? Still dark as fuck but MC doesn't have to literally become as bad as Taron to still dish out some terrible retribution.
It makes the morality system cartoonishly black and white where you can only choose between hugging puppies levels of good or torching kittens moustache twirling levels of villainy. If you want the end game to lead the MC that far down the rabbit hole of evil that's also fine but it should be more of a slippery slope, not going from pure good to pure evil like flipping a light switch. At least for a very few of the more extreme evil choices there should be something like 2 or 3 levels of bad reactions unlocked based on the MC current karma. Only an MC that always chose the vengeance path without restraint should have the option to go all the way to those levels of depravity.

Yuuuup just wait. Later you're going to be betrayed again only this time harsh language isn't even an option. You become (at the very least) best buddies with your betrayer - and also, so far the good and evil choices do not change anything in the game. So ...

Wait...are you talking about Pearl/Kira, the king or the prison dude who wolfs out?

Welp...I can't say I'm overly excited about those options(or lack there-of), but I'm already playing this character as the most forgiving and understanding punching-bag in the the history of the universe so in-for-a-penny in-for-a-pound, might as well see how that plays out.
Oh I've seen that. Ok fine, that actually bothered me less, mostly because The cure wasn't just a pure positive, it did have a heavy cost associated with it, and because Pearl stealing the artifact wasn't anywhere near as bad as outright walking the MC and his loved ones into a death trap...misguided though it was she was trying to save Kira and the MC as best as she felt she could. Plus Pearl is a lot hotter than Selena so that always helps with forgiveness and all that.

We've already beat that horse to death many times, so I won't give it another kick here - I'll just say that I deeply dislike Pearl and Kira and wanted to kill them both myself.
If that's how you're playing it ... it seems to be cannon, you should be fine. Personally I'm only in it for Eliza and I'm waiting to be able to "give in to the powers of darkness" because I've decided against becoming "a symbol of hope" - but the opportunities for that have been few and far between.
I can only really agree on one thing here, Eliza is the best, I would not have minded if she was the only LI. In terms of Pearl and Kira, overall I quite like Pearl and wish she had a bit more content, and while I don't outright hate Kira I was extremely annoyed at how much screen time she was hogging. Waaayyy too much, I would have preferred more time with Pearl and that other girl on the ship. I'd have probably liked the scene much more if I had to deal with Pearl hogging all the screen time and Kira only making a few short appearances to be honest.

It's coming. After the attack on pirate cove, you get a whole lot of interaction and content with Pearl (and Kira is not around).
