I suggested a long time before and I'm suggesting again now: Tinkerer should alert the player (in-game) of two things:Again, you can only know they are pregnant because of the Book of Girls. To me, it's the book's fault.
- When the player has reached the end of a certain girl's content
- Which girls currently have playable pregnancy/child content and which girls don't
A player could also avoid pregnancy by using the barrenness potion, but I think this misses the core part of the complaint that Moricano is making.If you don't want too many children, then stop having sex. It's not a requirement.
Moricano's core complaint regarding the in-game pregnancy system isn't that it exists or that it's there.
Moricano's core complaint is that a great deal of narrative progression within the game is completely locked behind getting various girls pregnant.
There are, undeniably, certain quests and adventures that a player cannot gain access to unless the MC impregnates a girl.
Examples of this are:

Essentially, the game forces the player to impregnate women if said player wishes to progress through the game.
While for someone like myself, this arrangement is heaven since I absolutely love pregnancy content, I can also understand how tedious or unsavory this all can be for someone like Moricano, who doesn't particularly like pregnancy content.
And this is especially irksome if one came into the game thinking that the pregnancy content was optional.
Optional in the sense that you could progress in the game regardless of whether you choose to impregnate girls or not.
Not optional in the sense that you choose to either impregnate girls and progress or not impregnate girls and not progress.
Lastly, Moricano is also complaining about how the girls get angry at you if you don't visit them for a long while - a mechanic that many people have found to be a nuisance during their playthroughs.
Moricano claims that after tests he's done by playing the game multiple times, he's discovered that this mechanic only appears after you've impregnated a girl - thus deepening his dislike of impregnation in Peasant's Quest as a whole.
In the end, while I believe a lot of these complaints made by Moricano are valid, I think this is a case of "different strokes for different folks."
Both Tinkerer and the majority of his fans absolutely love the direction the is currently going (mostly).
I think a lot of us would celebrate if Tinkerer got rid of the mechanic where the girls get angry for being away too long.
But because so many of us are more than satisfied with how things are progressing, I just don't see any major changes to the status quo.
Therefore, the only real options for someone like Moricano is to either suck it up and accept the game as it currently is or find something more to his tastes.
