Glad to see I'm not the only one getting a "This is turning into BS" Vibe.
Personally, I am of the opinion that sexual relations with people outside of the Harem, is Cheating/NTR/Cucking (use whatever term you want). I don't care that it's two girls, gender isn't important.
If the fucking around its between harem members, thats one thing, but outside of the Harem isn't something I enjoy playing/reading (and yes, I know that Abby will eventually be drawn into the Harem, It doesn't matter as she isn't a part of it right now).
Still, I probably should have expected this from this Dev given that;
- Game starts with NTR, which while not my favorite plot devices, or in any way original, I can at least understand it as a jumping off point.
&
- Dev makes a whole NTR arc to the game, but dodges the Tag by putting that CANON chapter of the story in a separate download.
Sadly, this latest update is kind of a final stray for me.
I've gone from $upporting this game (until the Lillith NTR chapter),
To just playing it every couple of updates,
To probably just ignoring it from now on.
The Dev can and should make whatever game they want. While I think this is very well written, I don't enjoy the direction that writing is going.
I can just imagine an update where Frank (MC) sits back and watches the girls have some kind of gangbang/strapon orgy, while he sips a cafe, and has an existential crisis, pondering if it's ok for him to enjoy it.
Again if that's the direction that the Dev wants to go, all the power to them.
But I for one am done following.
\Drunk rant over\
I agree completely...

Oh... it happens, thankfully it's not canon....YET, but there was a Halloween/holiday special 'What-if?' game where not only is there full-blown NTR (the P-in-V kind), but there is also said lesbian strap on orgy as Lilly and Becca dp Abby.
Wish I could unsee that.
I don't have a problem with Nessa and Beth, other than I wish Nessa was also bi/bi-curious and not a gold star lesbian. I also tried to avoid having sex with Beth for as long as possible, but it seems like my choices mean nothing because it's clear the dev not only belongs in the "girl x girl = so hawt" camp but that it's also canon to have a sexual relationship with Beth. The more I ignored her, the more the dialogue was written to act as if I was having sex with her. This is a convenient setup as a way for our neurotic, hypocrite, know-it-all with a magic D, Frank, to give said lesbian couple the baby they so badly need.
But, I digress... I think it's clear that all the 'main LIs' will someday be in a poly-relationship with Frank, I disagree it's a harem unless you mean it is Lilly's harem and Lilly is the actual MC all along. While I accepted the sisters-with-benefits relationship, I was fine with it staying that way until Lilly finally got over her possessiveness of Abby and Abby joined
Frank's harem. I was even elated when Abby turned down Lilly's first love confession, as it meant Lilly could devote herself being Frank's girlfriend.
With Frank pushing and pushing them to be together, while simultaneously feeling sick with jealousy and guilt over lusting over Abby and not wanting to see/hear/know about them having sex, it's pretty hypocritical of Lilly wanting to keep her secret relationship with Frank while now just starting a new, official relationship with Abby as her girlfriend. A lie out of omission is still cheating, even if we all know eventually Abby will find out, forgive them both, and then join the 'harem.'
My last issue with the direction of this story is by making Lilly and Abby a couple, you take away the whole idea of this being Frank's harem if we have not 1, but 2 lesbian couples/relationships. Frank is not at the top or center of any so-called harem, and is instead given permission to 'share' one of the girls from both couples while the other is off limits... and yes, I know obviously Abby will be allowed to have sex with him too but that is obviously not happening any time soon. When you have 2 established couples having sex with other people... that is sharing/swinging and not a harem.
