Thing is, there is already an option like the one you mention in the game, but that conversation is heavily conditional on all sorts of things. Without checking the details, maybe one of those conditions is a bit off so the game has checked your previous choices and assumed—erroneously—that that's what you meant, rather than giving you the choice.Since people are sharing things that bothered them slightly or a little bit more than slightly (and since you like talking about your game) I thought I'll write about one thing that bothered me a little bit that I haven't mentioned earlier, cause I thought it's maybe too small of an issue.

To answer your question - I myself would want the choice to either go the pegging route or go more vanilla. I'm not interested in pegging, but I'm sure some folks are. So I usually go the route of compromise. I'm also not a BDSM "expert" so of course "compromise" could probably mean a lot of things.When you put it that way, it's easier for me to agree with this point of view. I'm just a bit skeptical that there are many players that would benefit from the extra work. How many players are there that would like to have a had a buttjob in that scene instead of a wearing a dildo, but would like to be pegged in the next lewd scene with Deb? Porthas, you also suggested an alternative scene for Deb this chapter. Hypothetically, if the next kink scene with her was pegging until the MC has a prostate orgasm, would you be okay with that, or would you also require another less kinky scene instead there?
I like discussing game design and read people's opinions, I don't think it's wasted time. Besides, this usually only lasts 1 week after release. After that, the thread goes quiet and I go back to my porn cave working in the game all alone for 3 months. Let me enjoy talking about it while there are still people commenting
I like this in concept. But sometimes one doesn't know what one is getting into until they're many layers into the kink. Like Deb. I wouldn't mind her bossing me around a bit. But I don't know just how much she likes to control MC until it "feels like it's too late" and suddenly MC is agreeing to wear a... well you know I mentioned it earlier.And this here is more of what I was aiming for with the game. I would like that everyone, whether they like hardcore stuff, vanilla, light femdom, light maledom, more hardcore femdom, more hardcore maledom, etc, have some path they like. At least one of the girls should be good for the kind of kinks they like and level of vanilla/hardcore they enjoy. But providing all those options for every single LI is almost impossible. The idea is that all of the LIs can offer something a bit different in the kink department and then the player chooses his favorite. This was never intended to be a harem game where a player needs to like all LIs, or several of them. You'll have to pick just one anyway, starting early on rejecting those with kinks you like less just makes it easier.
This is, indeed, the intended sequence of events. If it didn't happen like that, there might be a bug somewhere. But I've tried to recreate your conditions and everything seems okay. So if I'm in the path:there's a conversation with Kim about why she's still with Pete and I chose the option that there are guys who are into this (mainly into being cucked as I understood it [maybe she should be with Carl?]). After I chose this option she asks MC if he has himself in mind and he - to my initial surprise - confirmed her suspicion. In truth however I chose this option because I was genuinely thinking that MC will suggest her that she should leave Pete and find someone else (neither Pete nor MC) who shares her kinks.
Good point. I agree that it makes sense to upgrade that to something more appropriated.Question about the loveometer: at the end of chapter 5, with Kim as biggest crush and cheating with her on manly path, the feelings status says you find her...interesting. Is that intentional? Feels like it should be at least attracted to.
Yeah, I suspected so. And that's what it makes it so tricky, because then it would require adding a new variant to all scenes with Deb.To answer your question - I myself would want the choice to either go the pegging route or go more vanilla.

This can be an issue. In my defense, this happens with all games, you never now what you're getting into. Walkthroughs can help, perhaps looking at scenes in the gallery ahead of time if you don't mind getting spoiled, or just have multiple playthroughs and then stop those that aren't going like you wished.I like this in concept. But sometimes one doesn't know what one is getting into until they're many layers into the kink.
I'd just be happy with a chance to bail out of the sex scene - for one example when that strap on thingee with the plastic dildo came out. So that would avoid having to create a "vanilla" sex scene for each girl, but it would keep one from not being able to jump out of the pool when the water gets too deep. It wouldn't have to jump to a vanilla sex scene.Yeah, I suspected so. And that's what it makes it so tricky, because then it would require adding a new variant to all scenes with Deb.
But the same should also be true in reverse. There are people that have said that, for example, Lea is too vanilla, (or Jen too kink, or... ), so now I'd also need to add two more routes so that everyone has a vanilla-ish and a kinky-ish lewd scene with any girl they like. The same for the maledom paths... you can see how this snowballs to a big number of paths.
So, that's why splitting the "kinky levels" between the girls, with some more vanilla and some more kinky, is much more reasonable. It also helps to create different personalities to them, with different tastes, etc. Of course:
Hmm, I can't recall having this option. Checking now. OK, I have it, though earlier I've played with 0.5.0 version, so either smth was wrong for me or my mind is not working properly. Thank you for your answer, appreciate it."Keep dreaming"
You forgot the Manly path for Lea and KimThere's only Jen for male dom
Do you mind explaining how you got to that conclusion? From my point of view:I could be biased here, but the more I play this game, the more I realise there are more femdom scenes than not. [...] There's only Jen for male dom, and besides Deb's pure femdom route(which is a huge wasted potential because I'm biased xD), everyone else's route seem to have abit of femdom inserted one way or another.
I'd argue it's 19 cause in ch. 5 MC gets two humiliation tasks (depending on the player's choices of course) and despite the fact that the 1st one doesn't seem to be counted by the game as an h scene I think that for foot fetish (or foot fetish + femdom) players it was still one of the h scenes. Plus 2 miniscenes with Kim (grabbing by the balls, trampling them a little on the beach) and her general attitude also fit the femdom theme if the player is inclined to follow this path. In my eyes therefore the game has very balanced maledom/femdom content (maybe vanilla is less represented).18 scenes total
I think it's worth distinguishing between vanilla-ish and maledom content. Of the women in the game, only Jen is presented as an outright sub, against Deb and Kim as outright dommes. Some characters offer a variety of content, and some who lean one way will occasionally have content that's more vanilla or leans the other way, but on the whole I think it's fair to say that the femdom content is slightly more to the fore, and the content presented so far a bit more extreme. This is not a complaint, I should stress; as long as you're happy with the balance it's all good.Do you mind explaining how you got to that conclusion? From my point of view:
Vanilla(-ish)/maledom(-ish) routes:
Emma: Hate fuck with MC as top (ch1) -> Striptease with misogyny kink (ch4) -> Hatefuck with mc as top (ch5)

I really think this criticism is unfair. And it feels a bit bad when the same thing is being mentioned in reviews as a reason for giving a worse/bad score.
It might be premature to assume that the way Deb is acting right now when she's clearly emotionally distraught and in pain necessarily reflects how she would act in normal circumstances within a committed relationship. I don't see her as someone who would call a friend up for a self-validation hookup ordinarily, for instance. She's certainly a complicated woman, but I think what we've learned about her in earlier chapters will remain true in the future. She's into orgasm denial play with a submissive male, but we also know she likes to take care of those she loves and that she enjoys sex. Would she truly be happy to be in a relationship where she has decided her partner is done with orgasms and will never have penetrative sex with her? Some people definitely dream of a relationship like that and would love to see one like it depicted in a VN, but I'm just not sure we can assume Deb or the MC belong in that category just yet. I trust MrSilverLust will always want the story to make sense and strive to make sure that the characters act true to themselves.One thing I have trouble understanding. Deb appears to avoid any type of penetrative/traditional sex with the MC (She even teases the MC about it with the strapon). I realize it's a part of the dom dynamic to control the partner completely, but does that mean the MC has to remain chaste (traditionally speaking) if he wants to pursue a compatible relationship with her? I mean it is hinted strongly that she has 'an appetite' (multiple times a day), but when it comes to the MC, she avoids it completely? Not trying to judge anyone who prefers this fetish, but doesn't that imply that the MC doesn't measure up to her physical standards? (maybe she prefers the muscley types). Even when she 'booty calls' a dom MC, it's mainly to validate her attractiveness.
This is really interesting to me because my true kink is healthy relationships. Maledom, femdom, exhibitionism...meh. Deciding whether two people really belong together and will be able to be happy over the long term? Oh yeah, baby, now we're talking. A couple of updates ago, I mentally sorted the characters into two categories: people the MC could likely have a healthy relationship and a happy ending with and people the MC could very well have a self-destructive relationship with and end up dragging himself deeper into his hole as a result of pursuing them. I personally put Bri, Olivia, Lea, and -- you guessed it -- Deb in the potentially healthy category while Kim, Emma, Jen, and Mel were the potentially self-destructive options. Maybe that list deserves a thorough revision. I do tend to think happy endings are going to be possible with at least Jen and Emma now.Because to me, it seems to be highly one-sided (both physically and emotionally). Perhaps that is how it is meant to be. In my opinion, she is perhaps the 2nd worst choice for a partner (after you know who).
The skill menu only appears after the "conversation" with Mel, once the tutorial message it's shown to the players. It has always been that way.has the skills menu disappeared now?
Oh, I'm in no way critisizing you or the game. I'm sorry if it felt like I was doing that. I'm really enjoying the game. Like I said, I obviously prefer less femdom scenes, so I could be biased. But you seem really be into discussion with fans here, so I'm just giving my 2 cents.Do you mind explaining how you got to that conclusion? From my point of view:

My read on the situation with Kim (which may have been wrong) was that either path involved the MC becoming her toy, whether as her pain slut or her tame cock, leaving her in the driver's seat no matter what. As the man said, the only winning move is not to play.The fork with Kim in particular felt abit off for me, even though there was an option to "not let her walk all over me". The first round of choices I made closed off the path completely. Once again, I could be wrong here, but the feel of Kim's personality I got wasn't that she was actually dominant, but manipulative.(backed by her puzzle kink sheet) In that scenario, maybe a better way for her to approach that was to not strongarm the conversation and be threatening all the way to the end, but actually taking a softer approach once we "called her bluff". She would technically still be manipulative and in control of the situation. That was of course, only be the case if her aim was to cheat because she felt good from being bad and in control. I guess I just didn't like the way she controlled the whole conversation and it felt like her way or the high way, rather than it being an actual deal.
