Agreed 100%Finally got around to playing the new update and I continue to hate the way the captain is approaching this Lym situation. This has got to be the first time I have played a game where I kinda hope a lead interest dumps the MC. waiting until the crew meeting to tell her that she is demoted and in front of the entire crew is a big time dick move. Not to mention how he treated her up to this point secretly replacing her as his confidant and second in command with Nyx, lying about the deal with mars, constantly distancing himself from her to "protect" her. probably doesn't help that I don't really like Nyx. Arrogant people annoy me.
I think it's mainly the fact that as the actual MC, you have absolutely ZERO agency over what happens and Lym basically gets thrown under the bus.To each their own.
I personally like this actual fracture between them and I like that not everything is going perfect and mistakes are being made that might have long-term consequences. At least in the AVNs I played the amount of conflicts like this is quite rare and a potential reconciliation will actually take a while and would be way more interesting than the usual 5 minutecup-noodlesconflicts we so often get. I am hoping there will be some actual weight behind all this.
However I can totally understand if someone doesn't like the attitude of some characters during this, like that was an actual betrayal and devastating for Lym; then again that is how drama goes. Someone can be an asshole sometimes. It's just part of the story.
I think you summed that up pretty well.The fact that it's unavoidable behaviour from the character we're supposed to be playing is likely what's irking a lot of people
I've talked about the Lym issue almost every update I play, but this is kind of where I'm at with it. At this point sure I get the drama/conflict even though I'm personally not a fan of it, but what I'm really hoping for is for Lym to essentially stick up for herself. I will not be happy if down the line she just forgives MC after another weak apology. She deserves better.Maybe he, or rather we will get our asses handed to ourselves at some point for the things in these scenes, don't know what cryoxxx is cooking with this. Until then this conflict will likely be painful times for the self-inserters![]()
This is exactly it. Drama is fine it makes a story interesting. its the fact that the captain keeps making the same mistake over and over again and gets away with it. I've gotten to the point that I hope he faces some consequences for his constantly shit behavior.I've talked about the Lym issue almost every update I play, but this is kind of where I'm at with it.

I haven't played the new stuff to be fair, but it sounds like I'd be pissed seeing her getting shafted (in the bad way) once again. I'm curious what her reaction to the demotion was but I'm letting updates build a bit before playing myself.
now that makes more sense as a reason. cap doesn't trust Lym anymore which is reasonable given her loyalty to the USF..... so he should say that instead of gaslighting Lym here and saying its because Nyx has more experience. again my problem isn't with the drama, it makes a story more interesting. And its not with Lym. Like I said her reaction to this situation makes sense from her perspective. She has been given no reason at all to trust the captain or Nyx. its that the captain keeps acting like an ass and is doing everything possible to make an already strained situation even more strained. And he keeps doing it.If you guys just want Lym to be fine with the crew going rogue because the power of Cap's magic dick, that would be a complete assassination of her whole character (blind loyalty to the USF and following in her sister's footsteps), you aren't going to get that. Even having on the ship at this time is a terrible idea, yet you guys would like her to stay in as 2nd in command.
Sure. It sucks that Lym is being a pain and that her relationship with the crew (and Cap) are strained and we have to wait months before its resolved, but I aim to give you all something that's interesting, believable, and fulfilling.
Sure. I see that as one of Cap's character flaws especially when concerning Lym. Something that they are going to have to work through. It is a reoccurring theme with their relations that Lym has mentioned/called him out on more than once. Nyx has too.now that makes more sense as a reason. cap doesn't trust Lym anymore which is reasonable given her loyalty to the USF..... so he should say that instead of gaslighting Lym here and saying its because Nyx has more experience. again my problem isn't with the drama, it makes a story more interesting. And its not with Lym. Like I said her reaction to this situation makes sense from her perspective. She has been given no reason at all to trust the captain or Nyx. its that the captain keeps acting like an ass and is doing everything possible to make an already strained situation even more strained. And he keeps doing it.
for example a couple updates ago when the whole situation with mars exploded the cap said something along the lines that he shouldn't have kept Lym in the dark as much as he did. but then this update he does it again by springing a demotion on her with no time to prepare and humiliates her in front of all her peers. then he thinks to himself "she feels like this a betrayal" well she feels that way because it IS a betrayal. My problem is that the cap never learns he keeps doing the same shit. I don't want Lym to suddenly be okay because magic dick. I want the captain to stop being a total dickhead. he wasn't like this in the early game its like all his emotional intuition disappeared.
also please understand this is a nitpick on a game I really like. I wouldn't support this game if I didn't really enjoy it. Just sharing one of my very few issues with the game
It's one of this games biggest strengths and refreshing to see. Especially for a HS game where the majority of MCs are dumb stuttering messes who act like they've never interacted with another person before. Even more annoying when the character is suppose to be in their fucking 20s. Really glad this game decided to go the route it did with the MCI personally love that the mc ain't the typical Captain America type nice guy. Captain Kirk, Indiana Jones, Han, and countless others (All assholes ) are way more entertaining. I don't want to play a guy that plays it safe, correct and nice.
Besides I want to dom Lym. She needs to learn to submit. I enjoy the kinks and the story a lot.
Thanks for the vn.
Way to completely misrepresent the criticisms of the way the story is going.If you guys just want Lym to be fine with the crew going rogue because the power of Cap's magic dick, that would be a complete assassination of her whole character (blind loyalty to the USF and following in her sister's footsteps), you aren't going to get that.
