Not sure what all the whining is about. I find this to be a rather good story and characters. There's very interesting characters, a somewhat different story plot, good models for the female characters, and the MC is, most importantly, not the stereotypical beta trying to be strong. Also, he even looks like a decent guy instead of the same overused 3 male models, lol. Whether it's kinetic or not it's an interesting story. The only thing I (personally) hope for is the chance to turn that bitch step-mother into my personal slave. She's a piece of work. Gotta love hating her. lol
