Freudian slip...I could have had
Freudian slip...I could have had
It's quite simple: I like (increasingly-not-so) older women, so I wrote a story around them.Ok, i just reveled the penultimate woman available for the game. W. T. F.? Really, again, what's this obsession about banging mature women??? No that i got anything against women in their 30's or 40's. That's my age and the age of my mate and that's quite normal i would say. But when i was 21???? Really??? I could have had and i had women in their early 20's or even teenagers. And i should have been there going after a 40 something women with children almost my age? Com'on. Thanks haven there are 2, and i say 2 out of a full roster of ladies, girls with a plausible age to pursuite.
Just why?
Even the setup makes little sense. Al the rich and powerful old maniacs patrons probably bang models in their 20's all day long and they need to go to this all powerful cash packed shady brothel that can't find a girl to give out who's younger then 30?? com'on.
Good point for the carnations, but i still think it works poorly for the age of the MC. It would have worked better, imho, if the MC was a later age man fallen out of fortune. It would have addedd a layer of drama. A 21 old boy who want to be a doctor but he doesn't want to pay the tuition have a pletora of other option. A later age man jobless could have had the dilemma of a "me or them" type of situation and the 30-40 ladies would have looked much more interesting. If any of them looked older then 25, by the wayAssuming they're "banging models in their 20's all day long", why would they go to a brothel to get more of the same?
That's ok, an i think the fact that the 3 carnations might be older desperate women adds to the depravity of the enviroment. Don't take me wrong, i'm liking this game. And it's overall ok that the MC is young.Nah MCs age is fine, otherwise it probably wouldnt work with Mina and Hana and his background story with Ian, also its nice to see older womeng like the 3 carnations falling for a younger guy.
Wait, what?Ok, i just reveled the penultimate woman available for the game. W. T. F.? Really, again, what's this obsession about banging mature women???

Good thing that in this games even women almost 60 don't look a year older then 25 just with increasingly huge boobs. Spoiler allert. Ageing doesn't work like that.

Oh yeah, I partially agree. Rosalind and Lucy would have made nice foils for one another and would have been a good source of personal tension and drama. There's a lot to work with there.Only stumbled upon this Game recently and wanted to say it suprised me. I didn't expect a good Story regarding the topics this Game is thematizing. So it was a pleasant suprise to experience actual great Writing and nicely build up Characters so far. Furthermore I'm impressed of the Graphics Quality considering with what tools the Game is created.
Only thing that bothered/ made me sad me so far was how Lucy was treated after loosing to Veronica. She was so quickly tossed aside and given probably the most gruesome fate of all the Women, that it pained it me a bit, especially as it seems that the MC has no chance in helping her even if the player would want to.
I get, from a Story perspective, why she couldn't win. Being too similar to Rose, and with Veronica (on paper) promising more variety and a sense of fresh air to the Story made it very unlikely for Lucy to win.
But as far as i had Time to play (had to stop right before the first Competition Event) Veronica falls really short on this promises in my opinion. As of right now she is not much more as a walking cliché of the "Strong on the Outside but with a soft core" Type of Character with a (for me) boring reason to participate. That may change as i progress further in the Story, but right now i can't stop myself from thinking that Lucy with her reason and background would have been (despite her similarities with Rose) a much more interesting Character to explore with much more potential for conflicts and drama then Veronica (right now).
Looking forward to playing again as soon as i have the Time to see how the Story and Characters will develop, just needed to get this thoughts out of my Head
I don't dislike Veronica or find her unsympathetic. It's more right now she lacks uniqueness and an Interesting Story for her Character (for me). I really like her personality and she has probably the cutest face ingame, i'm a sucker for Redheads with Green Eyes I expect her Story to pick up later on it just makes the way Lucy was handled much harder to accept right now.Oh yeah, I partially agree. Rosalind and Lucy would have made nice foils for one another and would have been a good source of personal tension and drama. There's a lot to work with there.
I do hope that once you see Veronica's circumstances further develop, you'll find her more sympathetic.
I believe that as well, although i don't think Lucy is in a less severe Situation or has a "less noble" Reason for participating.I personally think Veronica is a better fit (which has nothing to due with liking tall, strong, red heads) because on top of Lucy and Rose being very similar Lucy's situation is much less severe than Rose's. Lucy wants to get her son a specific school, Rose wants to avoid debt/keep her daughters life "normal". Lucy has a living/working husband (they even have a "sex life") Rose's husband is the reason she is in debt and is no way in the picture. Lucy (as far as we know) does not have a loan shark hounding her at home, Rose does. The only thing that Lucy has over rose is the person at the club who seems to be most interested in her is way worse (guy who likes boobs/milk vs shitty high school person who works at her sons school)
At least she is an employee that gets paid. Same cannot be said about the carnations - 2 of them will walk out with nothing. But yeah it sounds horrible working in the brothel.Furthermore i think she has the worst fate so far with being pressured/forced into becomming a House Girl. Where every club member can use and abuse her in every way he wants. And not just for the one Night a Week if i remembered Kathleen right but for the whole Summer.
What that sick ugly bastard of a colleague of her surely will do at any chance, we have seen he loves to hurt and abuse her at the competition, all while she will have to see and interact with him on a daily basis at work where i would assume he would try things aswell keeping his character in mind.
I wouldn't be suprised if the sick Bastard had falsified her Sons results as well to making her desperate enough to do his bidding.
Please tell me you don't see this really as an valid argument. You can't really think she's better off just because she has her Teaching job...At least she is an employee that gets paid. Same cannot be said about the carnations - 2 of them will walk out with nothing. But yeah it sounds horrible working in the brothel.
Not trying to argue with you. I just think it is stupid that the carnations are subjecting themselves to all this BS while there is such a high probability of failure.Please tell me you don't see this really as an valid argument.

Disagree.Not trying to argue with you. I just think it is stupid that the carnations are subjecting themselves to all this BS while there is such a high probability of failure.
I understand why Rosieland does it she is desperate and she is in physical danger. But I think Felicia and Veronica are stupid. Felicia needs to discover onlyfans and veronica needs to learn to suck it up - businesses fail all the time. What happened to her sucks as it is out of her control but it is not the end of the world if you work a job you dont wholeheartedly love. Most people in the world are in that position.
I also find it hard to sympathize with Lucy and by extension Victoria. I think Lucy's son and Edwin would both be fine if they chose not to do what they did sure Edwin might be better off now but I think he would be just fine if Victoria chose not to do porn. They willingly walked into the situation they are in and Lucy still has the option to walk away.
While I absolutely hate Kath, I can sometimes relate to the things she tells the characters.
Also generally there is a reason that schools have standards, the classes are set to those standards. The school does not magically make people smart or capable so her son is far more likely to fail/drop out than he is to succeed. She is paying a high price for something that is never going to happen, so far she is most tragic character imo.The thing is Lucy wants to send her son to a SPECIFIC high school (which happens to be the most prestigious in the state). We know that he was not able to get in based on his academics/sports/connections otherwise Lucy would not need to be here. The first issue with this is that it is just one high school we have in story confirmation that there are others, the second is whose to say that Lucys kid would do well/finish at the school? That means objectively she is doing carnation stuff for just a CHANCE for her son to attend the school with no guarantee beyond that to compare Rose wants her problem to be objectively solved. (wannts x amount of dollars to 100% pay off loans/debt)
Her doing this makes even less sense when you consider the fact that we know there is a very prestigious college which Mihir is a part of. Unless the ONLY way to into Mihir's College is to attend that specific high school then Lucy is barking up the wrong tree. Assume that Lucys kid gets into the best high school......is she going to be back doing carnation stuff when he goes to college? Will he suddnely be good enough to get by on his own (while his mom is doing prostitution stuff every weekened)?

The thing is, the only Information that her Son was not good enough comes from a highly suspicious Person. The sick fucker of her colleague has shown how much he loves to hurt her. He would say/do anything to get her in a position where he has power over her. So i call Bullshit on everyything he said about her and i'm sure he meddled with her Sons Test results. Besides that, there was simply not enough time invested into Lucys Character so we could learn more about her and assess such Details with more certainty.Also generally there is a reason that schools have standards, the classes are set to those standards.

I think you all misunderstand private prep schools. First of all, with better student-to-teacher ratios the quality of the education is better. Such schools can and do put more time and resources into bringing the laggards back into the fold than can public schools. It's not magic, but it will better educate the less competent students. Second, classes are actually a bit easier at "elite" schools, due to reasons four and five below. Third, they typically don't "allow" students to drop out as this looks very bad to prospective customers. Rich people have idiot children too, and they want assurances that the school will force their child to become at least competent. Fourth, having on your CV and college applications that you graduated from a prestigious institution increases acceptance chances for further education or employment, regardless of whether that prestigious reputation is well founded. Fifth, there are often arrangements between preparatory academies and certain post-secondary institutions, usually informal, that all but guarantee graduates from Academy X are accepted to University Y. The point is that the connections made at such schools are the real value, not the superior education.Also generally there is a reason that schools have standards, the classes are set to those standards.

Thank you for this. This where exactly my thoughts on why i can relate to Lucys wish for her Son to get on this specific School.I think you all misunderstand private prep schools.

Source: Me. At least half of my classmates at an "elite", private, highly selective university were from "elite", private, highly selective private schools or private prep schools from Boston to Miami to Redmond to San Diego. Most of them were mediocre students of unexceptional intelligence and average study skills, a few were incomparable imbeciles, and not many were geniuses, but they were (and still are) fucking fun to party with. The only dropouts were people with severe psychological problems. No one was flunked out.
