I feel like the worse is more to come. But I think a game I played Called "Friends in Need" was more rough than Pale Carnations. I mean you can rape and Harass the girls which scared me and made felt uncomfortable as fuck to the point that's a in patch. The game makes you feel like a piece of shit for it and makes you even feel worse than anything I did in Pale Carnations by far.
While I get it because the previous week was pretty intense, maybe it's like comparing an absurdly explicit violent movie to another with a more psychological approach, sometimes scenes can shock you but not provide much value outside of that initial reaction.
MC's perspective is not just about the exploitation in itself but how you perceive the relationships built with the carnations, other characters, and the environment he got into. I think it was fair to spend time reminding the player about what kind of people work in the club but I wonder what kind of impact that will have, if at all.
So far I like it and I think what happened between the three girls on this update could be a tipping point for their relationship, so I'm excited to see how the game progresses.
