Ntr games with bad and/or super dark endings get asked about and discussed a lot. But what about ones with "good" endings?
Are there any ntr games that have good endings that don't feel like a complete cop-out? Not ones that are either rushed or done for the sake of appeasing people. But are actually well written and make sense for the story.
I’m making a game like that! But the problem with good endings (like actual routes) is that they’re expensive and time-consuming to make. If they don’t have dedicated CGs or H-scenes, readers won’t like it. Moreover, most people reading NTR games are in it for the corruption aspect, so you’re already looking at a limited audience for “good endings.”
If I did a poll asking if the next scene should be NTR or vanilla, NTR would win by a landslide. I guess vanilla scenes might be doable after ten consecutive NTR scenes. But at that point, you’ve scared all the vanilla peeps away.
Think of it this way: Since time and money are limited, every vanilla scene you implement comes at the cost of a NTR scene. Suddenly, “good routes” are a much less attractive proposal, especially if you’re a dev (like me) that depends on crowdfunding for development.
That doesn’t mean I won’t do vanilla scenes, I personally like choices mattering, but it obviously can’t be a 50:50 split. Something like 80:20 NTR/vanilla is more realistic when you’re considering the current audience.
Again, if the "good route," does not contain exclusive CGs or scenes, many people are going to feel it’s a cop-out. I’ve played many H-games with "good routes" and I share the same sentiment as well. It just doesn’t feel special without any scenes between MC and FMC.
