- Not only did I not say that the beach event did not advance relationships, but I even wrote specifically that it was the only thing to take out from this update.
I know. I think i wasn't very clear in my reply, but what i meant was, the way you originally wrote it it sounded like you were dismissing those advancements as something basically worthless, or at least not important enough to make that update seem as something worth the wait, or for it to be there at all. So, i was disagreeing with that apparent take that it wasn't important.
Now, this is where it's going to be long, and this is where I am surprised - disappointed ? - that I have to mention it to you especially. Let's go path by path:
- On the Ian/Lena path: instead of the 100th fantasy "oh an MFM would be hot", the ACTUAL fucking MFM, for fuck sake.
- Or a fucking foursome with a couple met on the beach, i.e. the people Jenthe bothers on the first day (just for example)
The thing is you have that threesome either with Perry or Wade and coming very much out of the blue, or with some complete rando(s). I don't view such development for the much-awaited MMF to become anything but just another source of whining and complaints, seeing how that's basically reaction to any side-characters, even if they're already established in EK's previous game.
In other words, whoever was hoping for that, if there actually was anyone who was hoping for that, they weren't thinking clearly.
- Instead of, on the following update a cheating scene Lena/Emma, a fucking loyal FMF scene Ian/Emma/Lena at the beach (honestly I thought this was a given, when I saw it did not happen and that on the following update Lena had to cheat on Ian to trigger the potential future threesome with Emma....Well, it just proves my point, EK has utterly lost her shit)
Again, Lena/Emma was only started to be set up right before the beach trip. For this to escalate to immediate threesome with Ian included in the mix would be imo a whine bait on the level of "Lena fucks Jack as soon as he appears, muh immersionnnnn, it's ruined". Especially when, if i'm not mistaken, if Ian fucks Emma then Lena isn't even aware this is happening? I admit i'm not even sure if Ian/Emma isn't even mutually exclusive at this point. I've never looked into it in my playthrough where Ian and Lena are a couple.
- Meeting a girl on the beach and Ian Lena having a threesome with her
- Finding a nudist section on the beach and going for an orgy
- Walking at night, finding a club similar to GGGB and exploring
See above re: sex with randos and also complaints in this very thread how the Billy's party is likely to be orgy with people no one gives a flying fuck about and how much this is going to suck as nothing but a rehash of GGGB and the sign of EK's creative bankruptcy. I genuinely can't think of anyone who, prior to the beach house event, was expressing expectations for this kind of scenes there. It is possible i simply forgot, but i doubt it.
- For those on the cuck path : at long last a real fucking cuck scene for fuck sake.
With Perry, or Wade who is technically util the very end of this update in relationship, or, let me guess, some another rando? Lena even hitting on Wade out of the blue was complained about as pulled completely out of ass, you don't think it'd be ten times worse if they actually suddenly fucked?
- For those on the slut path: a fucking quickie with a guy met on the beach.
- For those on the Harem path: a foursome Holly/Emma/Lena/Ian
I could go on for ever. This beach event was a shit turd, full stop.
No, i think this is quite enough. I sincerely thank you for taking your time to write these down, i appreciate it. At the same time, i think while these scenarios are not quite Dubai-level silly, they're very much also not really something that most people who write in this thread were ever looking forward to in that update, and most of them are the opposite of those expectations. So, i think we'll have to agree to disagree -- none of that would imo make the beach event less of a turd, and if anything they'd probably make it more of something complained about.
Whoever came up with expectations for such scenes was setting themselves up for a disappointment, simple as that.
