yes and there is no fear of violence or reprisal so by your definition its cant be considered that. telling veronicaa that if she wont get money she will lose business is NOT violence or reprisal that's just how capitalism works.

if i dont pay my bills i will be evicted from house. landlord saying that to me is not coercion.
if i dont pay bills on my car and if im in debt it may get reposed its still not coercion.
Oh sweetie, that is coercion, but a type they made legal because it benefits the powers that be.

You can coerce someone to do something with something less drastic than pointing a gun to their head. It's the implications of destroying someone's life that can get them to do what you want. This goes double if you've manipulated things behind the scenes to drive them to that desperate point.

i don't totally disagree with you. but still veronica had choices and she made her choice. personally i would have walked away and most likly would have found way to live decent life and there is nothing samason could have done about it. so if its coercion its not very effective one.

This only really applies if the person in question has no other options. But to either do what you demand or face negative consequences.

If i offer you to give you a lift to your workplace on condition you sit in my car all naked and masturbate while i drive, but you can also get to work perfectly fine using your own car or public transport, did i coerce you into degrading sexual behavior if you agree with my offer instead of picking other of the options you had?

"Oh, but you knew i'm exhibitionist so it was obvious i'd pick this option!"
Well then, that's on you and indulging in your own kink, then. :sneaky:

Lucy and Felicia have the resources to deny the ride. Rose and V are in a worse position that's why the club is their only hope(ride).

Rose is the one who is between the rock and hard place with no good alternatives. I'm not questioning that.

But Veronica very much has alternative solutions, and the club isn't her only hope, like already mentioned in this discussion a few times by now. That's the whole reason we even have the discussion in the first place. No one would question it if the club was her only option.

To some extent, but they still can use public transport as alternative way to get to the destination. (or call a taxi, or whatever) It may not be as comfortable as a private car, but it's perfectly viable and good enough for thousands of other people in the same situation. The offer i've made them isn't their only option, that's the whole point.

Well youre for sure muddying the waters on what you want me to take a way from this game. One line you come off proud of muddying the waters with writing about women in difficult situations not being sexy and the next your sarcasticaly downplaying your own work as just jerk off material. So I guess I wont read too deep into the character situation writing anymore? Wish I would of known that months ago and save my time with waifu wars.

Your writing of the carnations doesnt come off as willingly to me atleast. Willingly to me is some wants to do it. Your writing gives me the impression that outside of Felicia, none of them want to be doing it but have to do it.

I swung and miss hard on the coercion thing.
i dont want to work but i also want to have nice car. now im in emotional distress trying to understand if my self is coercing me to work to get what i want :eek: what should i do guys. i did not think i could coerce myself :mad:

i cant believe that there is still a romance tag on this.
Keep playing, this game builds better romance and has some scenes that are more wholesome than any other vanilla trash harem game you'll find on this site. Yes, some of the stuff that happens in the exhibitions is a bit "extreme", but the game has a lot of cute 1 on 1 dates with all the girls where they actually enjoy themselves, if you dare to, give it another shot you won't regret it when you reach those parts of the story.

Tell me you haven't been in a desperate situation without telling me lmao. Did I want to get caught shoplifting for food no. Did my hunger drive me to make a bad choice to get rid of it yeah.
true but i can say that about anything x coerced me to do y at which point it losses meaning. me wanting ferari led me to killing feraris owner and stealing it .

lets start from beginning Samson is not manager of carnations he is costumer. so EVEN if we can say that samson coerced veronica to join it (which i dont agree with) it still dose not mean that club coerced her. above samsone already explained how yes Samson created situation in which yes taking part in carnetaion sound's better for veronica then alternatives BUT even she says that she understand's that she has alternatives.


I personally dont even have as much as veronica has and you dont see me whoring my self out ;) (lack of opportunities mostly if money is big im sure we can find some middle ground just saying it out there ) :ROFLMAO:

It would never moved on rosalind wars because she never did anything wrong, and certainly not scamming old people
Alright, not to start Carnations War 3, but it made me wonder. TD1900 could i ask, did you maybe consider a scenario further in the game where, having found out about this old people scamming business, Edwin who had voluntary "no strings attached" deal with Rose might want to renege on his promise and call it off?

Not a decision i'd have my Edwin make, but i ask because it's an interesting moral dilemma with a few moving pieces: keeping up one's word, "sins of the past" thing, the fact Edwin learns this by gaining Rose's trust, and the outcome of such decision affecting not just Rose but also by extension her daughter... possibly some other aspects that don't come to mind immediately, too.

While I do enjoy most sex scenes the punishment round almost had me throw up. also the exploitation of all the girls is so fucked. I wouldn't be as turned off if it was a everyone gets a reward kinda thing or the club specifically screened for girls who are into it, but this just felt uncomfortable while playing it also i cant believe that there is still a romance tag on this. The consent is dubious at best in so many scenes. If there was a version of this without the money coercion bit id play the hell out of it but right now it just feels dirty to play this. Which is a shame because there is some real talent with the writing, character design and the models but i cant enjoy it because everytime it gets me going im reminded that the women dont do this out of their free will. If you ever release something were the girls actually want to participate I'd be happy to play that bu this is crossing a line for me.
You have been warned

Ah, that may have sounded more glib than I intended when I was conceding to your point. With that last bit, I just meant I should've not said anything. The text should speak for itself and I shouldn't poison the discussion with ramblings that can be seen as authorial intent. Stay in your lane, TD.

Truth be told, the choice to add that detail to Rosalind's character only goes back like three updates. It was conceived during the Oliver stuff when I sat down and made better sense of her family dynamic beyond the "saddled with debt wife" cliche. All I'll say is, and this applies to ANY of the carnations... should the player deem it, trusting in Edwin could backfire for them when the chips are down.

Finally ! I'm excited to play the next update which will be an exhibition.
I'm curious to see how involved Hana will be in this, given that she's supposed to have much the same role as Kathleen. We saw that Kat was at one point involved and exposed directly in front of everyone in one of the games when Veronica chose her, I hope something similar with Hana, it definitely wouldn't be interesting to see her only as a green plant on stage.
Kathleen isn't crazy enough to touch August's daughter. She already got one scary warning from Chuck to prevent her to involve MC into her business with Abel. I don't put it past August to just make her disappear if she ever try anything funny with Hana.
