Somewhat to my surprise, I am really enjoying your posts in this thread.
I say somewhat to my surprise because it seems from things you've said that you and I have some pretty big differences on the kinds of kinks, LI behavior, and MC behavior that we like. But I really like that you decided to give this game a shot even though you were kind of on the fence about it, and I'm glad you're enjoying it. It's definitely one of my top 3 games on this site, and watching you experience it for the first time is fun.
I'm sorry you got caught up in a threadban for replying to that troll. But I'm glad you're back!
It's just that I started looking at it from the wrong angle. I've played my fair share of crappy NTR AVNs and read doujins with way worse stuff than this (I still wouldn’t call myself a fan thou). And it’s not like I’ve never been to a brothel in real life (not this kind obviously lol).
What I mean by starting on the wrong foot is that I had been leaning heavily into the romance genre lately with all the media I was consuming, like VNs/books/manga/anime. Just a phase, i guess. So when I started this, I think I self inserted pretty hard, which obviously doesn’t match the tone or theme here. But once I got that sorted out and just approached it as a story, and since you guys vouched for it being a damn good one, I obviously couldn’t quit.
Now I’m actually enjoying it and appreciating the characters a lot more.
Thanks for your reply man. I’ll keep posting my idle thoughts while playing because that’s part of the fun for me, even if I know some people here find it weird for some reason.
You're getting very into this, aren't ya?

Especially for someone who was a bit apprehensive to start playing this... it's kinda fun to watch the progression.
I'm falling into debauchery just like Edwin lol. I guess this is how the game is supposed to be experienced.
