_____________________________________++++++++++++________________________________________________I like slowburn games, especially incest ones since the taboo "walls" should take a while to break imo but it's been 3 years so I can sort of understand the sentiment as well. Either way there's plenty of other VNs to try out if this isn't doing it for them.
Thing about a story plot, it has its own pacing and timing. Now sometimes to tell the story it will be a slow burn depending how other events are presented.
From the beginning for a "faster" route, the story needed a back story that brough the issue up... needed some sort of catalyst so in present times things move faster.
However, no such history exists between the characters. So somehow it needs to be built into. Now you could have had a "faster" story if Kassie to have some sort of behavior disorder. But the psychopath route isn't as interesting.
All that said... it's hard to know when your main character is willing to cross a line. And it's the storyteller that has to build a plausible plot and character progression to cross that line. Yet... there is another issue with slow burn and that is content production. If you look at all the content present, imagine the amount of work it took just to get this far. So... is the current story unfolding maintaining the slow burn for the sake of slow burn, or are we to the point where the lines get crossed?
Worst or a really good thing is... there still are tropes left open. So once the main events start happening the developer can delve the audience into the complications that come with it. There still the issue of Kassie's birth control or lack thereof... there still remains any emotional baggage to present once things start happening... and there still is possible expansion of other characters and themes
