He's kind of like the Star-Lord or Nathan Drake of porn games. A bit of a loveable loser who tends to get a bit flustered around the ladies, but who also sort of fancies himself a ladies' man (and has it work out for him in the end due to his goofy charm and good hearted nature). A bit of a fuck-up, but also capable of getting the job done when necessary. Solid, dependable, and willing to tough things out, but also someone who's going to have you rolling your eyes a lot if you hang around him too long. Cheesy lines and quips standard.There are not many adult games having male protagonist where he is neither a weakling, nor an aggressive asshole. Jack actually is a rare case of a likeable hero - kind, smart, handsome and strong enough right from the start (both physically and mentally). I wish there would be more such dudes in this kind of games.
His personality is a large part of what I liked about the game when I first played. I've never been a fan of Japanese-style games where the protagonist is pretty much a pushover who is constantly paralyzed by doubt and indecision, and games where you're an utter monster who starts at dominance and corruption and eventually just spirals into straight-up sadism can get old after a while. Sometimes you just want to cuddle with your waifus. Having a bit more light-hearted/comedic tone helps it stand out from other stories (and the "sex comedy" vibe reminds me a lot of the old Spellcasting 101/201/301 games).
About the only downside is that he can be a bit too much give and not enough take at times, but it feels like that's actually part of the story and something that will change as he grows more confident and capable.
