I really can't understand why so many of you can't accept the fact that the dialogues and the people's characterisation in this VN are complete and utter crap. Exactly like in every VN these guys (Ptolemy & His Pals) wrote.
I think some people are just very much into the content and have an easier time excusing the flaws of this game. Because, for a game that supposedly prides itself on its story instead of its erotic content, all the story beats seem to weirdly enable the maledom fetish. The explanations for many major plot points are frustratingly shallow, but why complain, if you enjoy the outcome?
Like, remember how Laurie couldn't get thralled fast enough with no pushback or drama from any of the characters? How the childhood friend romance that was hinted at got abandoned after a single scene, introducing a "slave Laurie" variable instead?
Remember how Sharon trained the PC to "control the beast", but now we're supposed to excuse all the shit he does as typical vampire behaviour? Remember cheering for Sharon the underdog, but then her character arc actually culminated in her getting knocked down a peg as the PC's paperwork bitch with benefits?
Remember the vampire hunter that started out as being able to mislead and seduce powerful vampires, but ended up as the incompetend comedic relief, always stumbling over the panties around her ankles, because the PC is such a manly man?
Remember how Ivy was thralled for no reason at all, making everyone involved just look retarded, but atleast she acts like an infant now and needs the PC's protection very much?
