Ren'Py Seeds of Chaos [v0.4.08] [Vénus Noire]
It asks you right at the start what content you want to avoid. Even then, there's an obvious decision to engage or not with most of the scenes.

Big part of what takes away from the experience is the total control you have over events. There's no fear that bad shit will happen to your wife because you can specifically tell the game no NTR. Not to mention it's not that well written to begin with.
So because you chose to turn off NTR so that you don't have to worry about the chance of it happening, it somehow means the game is lesser in your eyes.
Maybe don't turn it off and make the choices that will lead to it happening then.

Oooh, don't cry buddy.So because you chose to turn off NTR so that you don't have to worry about the chance of it happening, it somehow means the game is lesser in your eyes.

But that wasn't even what I was talking about. You just got all emotional and accused me of something else entirely. I'm saying you have total control over whether your wife gets banged or not, and choosing to have it happen takes away all conflict from the plot. This is a design choice that you can't change. Take a deep breath and read again.

lol, congratulations for writing the most unconvincing and trolling reply ever, which shows that you haven't understood much of the game if you think that avoiding that someone fucks Alexia is the whole point of it.
Incidentally, that nothing bad will happen to Alexia is a wild assumption, and the idea that you have total control over the events is even wilder.

"if you think that avoiding that someone fucks Alexia is the whole point of it."
I don't. Her being captured and her life being "threatened" is the driving force behind the main character's actions. As a result, I'd expect to have to make tough choices whilst considering her well-being, but instead they pretty much begin to chill out immediately.
Do you disagree? If so, how about you tell me what the "point of the game is"? I'd love to hear it from the expert.
"Incidentally, that nothing bad will happen to Alexia is a wild assumption, and the idea that you have total control over the events is even wilder."
I've played a chunk and I've not only been able to make the choice to not have Alexia get fucked, but I've also had the choice to prevent other people from raping other characters. So, no, it's not a wild assumption. Either Alexia gets fucked on your say-so, or she gets left pretty much entirely alone.

Well you kind of right but writes have to compromise to make everyone happy.
Game is clearly leaning to fairytalish fantasy sub-genre now at the begging it was more dark moody fantasy but they backtrack on that.

I'm not.
People who react with that type of comment are usually the ones who are one hurt "fee-fee" away from a tantrum though.
You made a point of raising an entirely optional mechanic as being contributory to your dislike of the game. That it exists was enough of a negative for you, that it had to be in your complaint.
Emotional... I experienced emotion, that of amused ambivelance at someone saying some so incredibly short-sighted and simultaneously stupid.
You made a post of generic troll-bait whining, mentioning something that exists purely as an optional mechanic, and continue to raise it as being the main problem...
The last part of your sentence alone shows that you barely played the game.
The game's plot is not about whether or not Alexia gets fucked by someone/thing other than Rowan.
You are yet another monumental failure of a troll, succeeding in only showing that you're just desperate for attention. You shall receive no more from me.

You wrote a paragraph in direct reply for every sentence I wrote, didn't even make a single argument, but I'm the one triggered?
Sad, lol.

Well... There's a sensation of "control" that Venus Noire Team create, but, if you want to rage, remember, choose for Rowan to search for his wife it doesn't matter because the narrative need that Rowan give a strike to Jezera when she's alone in the most senseless act of foolishness ever seen for a person who's called & considered vital in the last War against Twin's Father...You control both Rowan and Alexia's choices. Without a lot of rape scenes I don't think there's much wiggle room to ignore player choice and control when it comes to sexual scenes or consequences. People would grow annoyed a char they supposedly control is doing shit they did not want them to; potentially with chars they have zero interest in.
As you said it's a design choice which like most cannot satisfy everyone. I can only imagine the rage on this thread if Rowan or Alexia fucked people without the players control
It doesn't matter that Rowan and Alexia looks no less than 35 years old, when the narrative tells you he was the abandoned son of a hunter, raised by another peasant who was an Elder Village, that in their youth this couple meet for the first time, that the last war had a duration of 10 years and when the story begin has passed 8 years, so, perhaps Rowan and Alexia could have met with 17 years old and soon after the war began, but a commoner in ten years achieve more than any in the nobility who are raised into the management of weapons, strategy, battle... Fuck...
I don't think it matters much if put NTR Off, the game just save the player to see the NTR but it doesn't mean that don't happens... Or it will be impossible to corrupt Alexia by turning off NTR? Never tested myself, but don't buy it, if the choice that allows NTR appears and you don't see the scene, internally Alexia have been corrupted by another's cock, as simple as that.
But in the end it doesn't matter if the narrative makes complete sense to you or if in reality Alexia can be corrupted without NTR, Rein wants the player's suffering, that's what you can count
.I want to see her as a degraded sex toy.
So ya know. Let people like what they like, and choose the route that doesn't have it, or get stuffed.

Player choice is fine, but it should be limited. With this game, you have full control over what happens to either party with no pushback whatsoever. Basically, you get to choose your consequences. That takes all conflict out of the narrative, which is already mediocre by its writing quality a lone. Either play as Alexia, or Rowan, and make a proper choice and consequence game where its not clear where your choice will lead. This design has led to many critically acclaimed games, such as Wolf Among Us.You control both Rowan and Alexia's choices. Without a lot of rape scenes I don't think there's much wiggle room to ignore player choice and control when it comes to sexual scenes or consequences. People would grow annoyed a char they supposedly control is doing shit they did not want them to; potentially with chars they have zero interest in.

I don't see why I or the dev should care that people here get mad. That's their own problem. The Rance series makes a tonne of people mad by its existence alone, but it has a strong and devoted fanbase. As a writer, you should focus on them, not try and make a game that pleases a wide margin of people.
Then again, he's been plenty profitable doing so.
It is limited if the player specifies they're okay with it being limited. Are you seriously complaining that there's NTR toggle instead of making it mandatory? Like, why do you even give a shit about someone else's experience?

No. I'm not. I'm saying that even if you toggle NTR on, you have full control over what happens to both Alexia and Rowan. I near enough stated as much, so I dunno how you got confused.
You have control within limits provided by the game. You can make choices, but there's no say these choices aren't going to have negative consequences down the road. So far, these consequences might've been largely limited to 3rd parties, but it does not mean things are going to stay this way forever.
