Harmless NTR??? lmao man this shit ruins families and lives. Cheating is never a good thing. Not saying that other extreme themes are fine, but saying that NTR is a harmless thing is just delusional.

Yeah, this is a Bambi and flower garden game, and I can't possibly imagine anyone in it fucking someone other than their life partner.

I mean, c'mon. Read the game room.

Make different choices. Exclude all the partners. It's not actually particularly difficult.

He said that about NTR in particular, like it is vanilla. So yes no matter the game the NTR is not harmless at all. And i didn't say anything about it being unavoidable so i don't know how was that relevant at all.

Its harmless, its all in your mind.
Some people are really sensitive and soft.
Someone else bangs your wife, so what?
He didnt murder her, its not the end of the world. Its just sex. Sounds like their problem.
This is just for real life.
Imagine actually complaning in the game about it, next level pathetic

Yet again why are you even talking about complaints lmao. I know it's hard to read but, i didn't talk or cry about ntr implementation in this game. Enjoy your silly ntr fantasy all you want (but talks about being pathetic lol).

I gave you both examples.
Bruh what?
This is that anti ntr brain talking now

What anti ntr? Are you drunk? When did i say i was against ntr in this game? To me it seems that you are trying so hard to justify it's existance that you actually see everyone as an enemy and part of anti ntr croud.

Are you drunk?
I told you why its not harmful both irl and in game. That was your original argument, was it not. Actually go on, tell us how its harmful in game other than your feelings getting hurt.

How is it not harmful?? Especially irl? You must be joking, otherwise you are just young or stupid. Do you even know what NTR means in the first place? It's not just sex, you prety much lose your beloved one. Even simple cheating as i said already can ruin famlilies, and yet you are saying it's just sex lol. Even in games ntr has always way darker thones than vanilla stuff.

But let's forget about irl and talk about this game if you want it this much. The dude's wife possibly giving birth to someone else's child by the end of act 2-3. Heck she could be some kind of demon or mutant at this point mindbroken and pure evil. So yes eventually, you could say that he will lose his wife and she is dead for him. Which is the whole point of ntr (for mc to suffer). So the harm is done.

I mean, you can choose to get offended, grab a gun and blast everyone american style or choose to not get bothered and still find satisfaction. Its all in the mindset.

About the game, i wouldnt mind if she gives birth. You see this is where we already conflict.
And i doubt shes gonna become a demon or smth, at least i dont see it in my playthrough.

I'd avoid talking about kinks because games are not designed to make you angry or offended, how would they profit then.
They make everything for a reason and money talks

You can choose to not get bothered by anything, doesn't mean the situation is not harmful.

Rather than quoting all the previous decision, I'm just going to name drop Mfka5/ Big Green as the main ones I'm replying to.

First of all, you both might want to take the combativeness down a notch, less the mods come in to deal with it directly.

That aside, you know what else is harmful? Having your entire family murdered. I would even go so far as to say that it is way more traumatic than being cheated on. But it is still a very popular plot point in fiction. Where is the outcry about its depiction? No one sits down to a nice wholesome revenge action movie and then loudly complains online about the familicide in the inciting incident. (Note that I am being a bit hyperbolic here, obviously there is some small percentage of people that will complain about literally anything, the point is they are an insignificantly small number). It even shows up in otherwise "family friendly" media.

In fact I would posit that most media is about the charater's lives being ruined in some way. Generally speaking we are more interested in stories with high stakes. Thats why there aren't a lot of stories where the main confict is that the local grocery store was out f eggs. Generally speaking it has to be somethign that is ruinous of the characters life, at least from their perspective.

And it is even more egregious when, in cases like this game, the audience can choose for the event to happen and then get upset when it happens. Insert the self-inflicted sitck-in-bike-wheel meme. That said, from my understanding, that isn't what DeemLeem12 was upset about with the Greyhide situation. He wasn't upset that he chose for Alexia to cheat he was upset with the results. He wanted there to be more fallout from his choices, for his choices to have serious long term ramifications. Which is a valid stance to take.

However the argument agains irl harm is rediculous. By that logic the only thing that is harmful is direct harm. Oh your whole family was murdered? Just choose not to be sad/angry. It's not like you were murdered, its all in your mindset bro. That's some psychopathic level of lacking empathy. If you are in complete and total control of your emotions at all times, good for you I guess. But while people are still responsible for the actions they takes, most people are not in control for how they feel in a given situation, and it takes them some time to work through their emotion even in the best cases.

Everyone here that complains about NTR In this game actually believe Alexia is their wife and think Andras is real R.I.P. If anyone is getting NTR on it's Xzaratl, Greyhide, and Jeerza. Andras be the one fucking both Rowan and Alexia rofl, "not literally the player." Lmfaool

Responding too "And it is even more egregious when, in cases like this game, the audience can choose for the event to happen and then get upset when it happens.

Which is a valid stance to take."

Although I do like how you can choose as Rowan to be completely fine bout it, liking it. I do agree with DeemLeem12 there should be a negative choice outcome option. Which is why I'd like to see more focus on Rowan/Alexia with Xzaratl, Greyhide, Jeerza, and Andras, even with the Goblin chick, there's literally no positive or negative plot choice outcome with Alexia by getting the Goblin chick pregnant.

As I said before the choices you make with Xzaratl as Rowan should really affect how Xzaratl proceeds you and Alexia. If you choose dark choices with her for Alexia then that should corrupt Xzaratl thinking in how she wants Rowan and Alexia, which should lead too (Rowan or Alexia), Xzaratl, (Andras, Greyhide, or Jeerza) moments then leading to with other characters slowly over time. Good Choices with Xzaratl being purely just her, with Rowan and Alexia. And there should be that same thought process with good and bad choices with Greyhide as well.

But I don't see any of this happening anytime soon because SOC needs lot of rewriting, but that's bit hard to do for any dev when lot of the focus seems like it is going too "random side characters" over "main side characters." This game really does have a lot more to offer than shown. I hope it comes to light, but if not, I'm not gonna sweat over it. Best of luck too the devs either way .

I mean i completely agree with your point. I don't even know why he tried to argue with me in the first place. I never said that ntr is bad for this game only pointed out that it can't be harmless at all like the original message i was refering to. Also i said it on several occasions in this thread that ntr for me is canon in this game, otherwise pure route is kinda stupid. So yeah the whole argument was pointless.

But I don't see any of this happening anytime soon because SOC needs lot of rewriting

Pls God no. This game can't see the first part completion for almost a decade now and we have another 2 down the road.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if at least some of the fallout you are hoping to see is being saved for Part 2.

I think part of the problem this game has is one of pacing. There are a number of popular characters that you can rush through their entire arc at the beginning of the game and then they just become static from that point on. Although narratively their story has only started, when weeks upon weeks of in game time go by with nothing of any significance happening it almost feels that the character was abandoned.

I mean i completely agree with your point. I don't even know why he tried to argue with me in the first place.

I meant to put this in the above post somewhere, but I guess I forgot about it somewhere along the way. But I initially felt you two were talking past each other. I thought you seemed to be talking about the irl effects of cheating and Mfka5 seemed to be talking about the cheating that happens in the game, at least until he seemed to double down and explicitly called out irl cheating as harmless as well.

Up until that point I was mostly on his side, in that I think that fictional depictions of cheating are no more harmful than fictional depictions of violence. In that for the vast majority of people simply seeing is isn't going to make them want to go out in do it. And for the people it does encourage, they likely had something wrong with them and probably would have ended up doing it anyways.

He was trying to engage in the ntr wars with me for some reason there, so that's why you had this feeling.

But still even in games the depiction of ntr usually leads to a harmful conclusion for mc. I never said that it's the player who is being harmed in any way, it's stupid to think otherwise. So yeah, it's not as harmful as a murder for example, but it's not a light topic anyways. And arguing about irl was just insane on his part.

How am i not gonna do it when you bring up "Oh people ruin families from this, very, very harmful" lol
If anything should be weird on your part.

NTR is nothing, yall too soft.
If a bitch NTRs you, get a new one.
She aint worth it to ruin your life over it.
Yall are overly dramatic about this.

[Jynx_lucky_j]

Just a semi related side note before I finally wash my hands of this whole thing.

But I'm not the only what that thinks referring to real life cheating as NTR is super cringe, right? I mean NTR is a fetish tag, using it for real life situations is just weird. Personally, I would quickly disassociate myself with anyone I heard use it irl unless they were explicitly talking about porn at the time.

Good luck to you and your imaginary bitches, but i won't argue with you anymore it's just pointless. The fact that you can't understand that there are also children and it's not always about yourself is just too much. I guess you also didn't hear about collateral damage. And i have to agree with lucky j that it's cringe calling a cheating irl NTR lol. On that note i'm also out.

 

[Slick Bean]

This is a game thread, it is not IRL cry me all rivers ... MC or his demon overlords would never care anyways.

MC and his bethrothed are cannonically still stricken by the blithe of the demons, so no getting out of any misery any time soon.
