These two points were from me, not
McWoodz , BTW.

I doubt that this game will go long into the consequences beyond setting up a multi-pregnancy household situation, though.
Ok, so then let me ask you this: if the consequences and the results are going to be present...then what's the point? What's the appeal? Why put it in there to begin with?
It's there for people who get turned on by pregnancy to think about pregnancy. It builds a fantasy for those people. And that's fine for them. But it's for that very reason, however, that people who are hugely turned
off by pregnancy are bothered by it.
It's
in the game in order to elicit an emotional response. That's why it's there. Seems silly of me to question why people who don't like are having exactly that.
For this first point, Luxee is telling a story that seemed obvious to me - and which was, coincidentally confirmed by Luxee in a subsequent post - where there will be a "they lived happily ever after" (nor not!) future in whatever is revealed as each path's final conditions which we can experience directly ... then it will end and we can consider what that might imply for the characters' future(s).
Why did I feel that way? Because that's how the other paths played out and I saw no indications from the Dev that the Harem or Forbidden paths would be any more special in their handling of future events after their main elements were put into place.
As for the pregnancy issue, that's the Dev's choice (as you have admitted) and they apparently felt it seemed a natural element to include in the still-developing paths. It fits within a narrative previously established (as I mentioned) and I feel it will be interesting to see how the potential supporting elements for the pregnancy align: will the Sweetie/Elly path, which saw Jenna become a live-in partner and supporter of raising new kid(s), imply that the Harem and/or Forbidden paths could see a multi-member child support arrangement (i.e., for the Harem) or maybe something like a Sofi partner+support arrangement (i.e., Forbidden)?
We don't know how this facet of the storylines will play out yet, but can conjecture from what has already been seen as Luxee's style for this VN. It's fun to think ahead on these kinds of things. Emotional response? Sure, if you are paying and don't like pregnancy AT ALL in this context, either suck it up and accept the changing world being a mix of things you enjoy and don't *or* stop supporting the Dev's effort. I stopped being a Patron after A69 was put on hold but decided that the strength of this installment should bring me back: we all have different likes and dislikes, that's just life.

I don't understand this point in relation to the game. Luxee is telling a story and Elly has wanted to get preggers with the MC since early on.
She is a fictional character. She wants whatever the writer decides she wants. And she can change her mind for the same reason.
On this second point, I was talking about not understanding YOUR point in relation to the game: of course Luxee can decide what the character should feel, do, etc. That was my statement about Elly's desire to get pregnant, which was not made secret over the past installments.
If you don't appreciate that reality to the extent of it souring your entire experience with the game, sorry to hear but I guess you won't have much more to say in this forum which is relevant to the game itself, going forward.
