I don't see the "problem" here, you can choose if you want the gangbang to happen or not, that has not "affect" in the story or the girls if you choose the non-NTR path. And still if you let all the men fuck her, she will react different if your score is high or low, if is high she will enjoy being gangbanged but if is low she will despice you for let it happen.I have always liked this game. the story is very interesting and the characters are very good. I have saved for every girl's path. Up to now. I think the gangbang scene was a mistake, and not only because it has left Rion very damaged like Li but because it has made me think about what will happen in the future with her and with the other girls. I know it is avoidable, but even so it has left me with a strange feeling, of doubts about what direction this will take in the future. The next updates I think I will not play them and I will only look at this forum to see what is happening and if this current feeling of discomfort is something temporary
The problem here is that, it is a prerequisite if you want to progress through the Lust path, so basically it is unavoidable. And before this update, there was basically no buildup to it ever happening at all. Heck, there wasn't even an NTR path before this update. Sure, Rion is a nympho but to jump from steamy vanilla sex to surprise NTR mind break gangbang in a span of 12-16 in-game hours is just farfetched and dare I say stupid. Dev also previously stated that NTR will only have a minor part in this game and will only happen to other girls that you are not pursuing, thus it is not truly NTR, but it appears he has strayed from that previous statement or maybe outright lied which has misled most of us. That my friend, is the problem. There are pages upon pages of that debate earlier in the thread if you don't want to take my word for it.I don't see the "problem" here, you can choose if you want the gangbang to happen or not, that has not "affect" in the story or the girls if you choose the non-NTR path.

But still, like you said, Is avoidable, when you avoid, you don't get that path. So you shouldn't be affected for what happens in the NTR path if you play the non-NTR.
Yes story is very interesting and unique compared to other VNs.So, just finished with 0.8, and back to being caught up with the Dev.

yeah - there only a few successful games out which manage to go on so many diff routesMmm, I think the misunderstanding comes from the fact that I called that route lust/corrupted in the guidelines
But in fact, it's the corrupted route more than anything and it's very close to evil route (I just let the possibility to reach it from high lust (and not only from evil points), but you are NOT forced to take that route either if you have high lust, you can choose the other option, and if you don't like NTR, protecting Rion is the obvious direction to take).
And no, choosing the GB is not a prerequisite on the lust options of Rion. It is the prerequisite to corrupt her. Different.
If that was confusing, then I'll correct the "names" of the routes in the guidelines
First route is romance/lust
Second route is corruption/depravation
Last route is straight evil/domination
Also, there is one thing I don't understand. You guys have the choice to do it or not, and yet still complain because you had the choice. It's like going to the bar and having the choice between Coke and Beer. And complain because Beer is proposed.
Nothing is forced here. You don't have to take that route if you don't like it, choosing to protect Rion will preserve your intimate relationship with her, and your lust points as well, so where is the problem?
That said, the fact this "corruption" route seems rushed, especially if you jump from the torrid night from day3 to that corruption scene, is a criticism I accept and understand. Maybe I should have locked the cross path between lust and corruption. And yeah, maybe that jump was a bit brutal and would need some polishing to make the corruption more progressive. That is something I will think about later if I have time. But again, it's an OPTION and a side route, not a main one. If you feel it's out of place, just don't take the option. I would understand your disappointment if there was no other option. But there is => don't let Rion be touched by anyone else. That's it . Alright, there are no sex scenes for the other path in this specific update...they are captured, not really the best place to have intimate sex, don't you think so ? But you shouldn't be concerned about that, Rion won't miss any occasion to have some lewd moments with the MC.
You don't imagine how much work it is to manage so many routes, and the complexity to make all the crossing routes still have some sense whatever the options you chose before, especially as it's happening on the same timeline (I understand now, why almost no other developer do that kind of gameplay). So, yeah, sometimes some roamings will feel a bit brutal because what you did before was 1 of the 5 things you could have done before, and that one doesn't fit very well the next event. Yeah, I agree it can happen.
I'm doing what I can in my free time, usually during the night, because I can't live and work full time from it. I would like to have more time to polish every route, but the truth is that I should have closed and limited the number of routes, much more than I did.
Anyway, I made a poll on Patreon on that subject and the results are surprising so far. Or maybe it's the other way...
