I read in the status people were complaining the scene with Maggie came out of nowhere. Joshua writes pretty damn well and it didn't feel out of nowhere at all to me. There was tension building between the MC since the beginning. Sounds like people Just made assumptions about Maggie being a cliche formulaic VN girl next door type and got ass mad. This game is very unique well written rendered and put together
More like ppl felt the scene was a big kick in the balls, considering everything we saw about her in the story and how she was presented. There's also the lil fact that the scene can only be fully skipped, there's no romance or light maledom option, and who da fuck thinks a situation like that is a good opportunity to throw a lame ass femdom scene in there with a gorgeous character like Maggie that shouldn't even be in the mood for doing sexual stuff ??
No offense to Joshua, don't even know who the guy is, but he fucked up pretty bad. I would expect something like that to be reserved for Allison, Natalya, Veronica, or even our crazy, horny lil stalker Alexa, but for Maggie, of all women ?? C'mon man, that's nonsense.
Before any femdom fan says something, yes,
there is planned femdom and maledom put in the planned tags in the spoiler under Dev Notes since the game's first release, if I'm not mistaken, but even so, all the femdom-ish stuff needs to be completely optional and avoidable and there should be a more romantic or maledom-ish alternative to the scene with Maggie for the players who ain't into that kinda stuff.
That's what the devs should've done, not throw Maggie under the buss like they did with a scene like that. I think this is why ppl were so upset about the vibe that scene gave off. Shit sure left a lot of room for speculation on how they'll add more actual femdom scenes with her, but there should also be a romance and/or maledom alternative to it so everyone can pick what they like more.
For me it felt like it came out of nowhere personally. But that was mostly because how the scene presented it's self I did expect sex soon with her just not like that.
Exactly this.
I don't think there was even one Maggie fan who thought she was that kinda woman, not with a crazy, still-butthurt bitch like Allison dropping obvious hints and facts left and right about being this type of character and a certain pissy, clingy asf GF fucking off to Canada or wherever, if the player breaks up with her.
Hell, I don't know why, but at some point in the story, I kinda expected to see Camille herself femdom the shit outta the MC with Cooper watching and cheering her on from the sidelines as payback for her emotionally immature, spiteful bestie, Allison. Never would've expected Maggie to be the closet wannabe mistress the tag was there for tho.
I sincerely hope there's romance scenes planned for her too as alternatives to the completely out-of-character (IMHO) femdom ones, or I'll just have to ignore and avoid her and her bullshit family drama altogether in the next updates.
It made perfect sense narrative wise IMO
We can agree to disagree on this, but assuming you right about it, everything, kinks, fetishes and characters, needs to be completely avoidable and only the player should choose what they like and want to happen and what not. Seeing as the only alternative to that scene was not to get a BJ at all, I'll probably have to go back and ignore Maggie, as much as I love her character and the fact that she's a gorgeous blonde, and do what I'd usually never do in porn games and IRL, which is go for the redhead.
