You do realize that within hours of the open relationship decision, MC had sex with Victoria, right? How many "lewds" did Nicole get in those few hours?

I love it when people comment without playing the update and look clueless in the process.
MC has already fucked someone else.
Because they weren’t given the alternate option to end it.
I also think it’s extremely stupid logic to have a character advocating sleeping around But then saying don’t worry we won’t bother following that through to its natural conclusion.

From what i read there was mention of possible harem being added in. I will wait for a while more before playing to see if this happens because being forced to open relationship then end a relationship if this is a later possibility would mean a restart of the game as it is. This may have even been just a referenced possibility for DMD instead so i could be wrong but the mention was there and DMD is pretty far along and it hasnt happened there yet. I would love to see them put out a well written harem game and this one could fit the bill as the perfect candidate.

I feel your frustration, but one thing to keep in mind is that the people who were triggered by the video call options were probably not the same people who came down on "giving in" to those complaints. Catering to one camp will usually upset another.
For the record, though I'm not condemning the team for "giving in so easily," I would have preferred to see the game as originally intended.
Whenever I see fans/consumer trying to dictate what the author should do with their characters, I am reminded of Misery...

Exactly. Since this MC is not going to cheat, it was necessary. I, for one, feel that it would have been too sudden to break up with Nicole after only a couple of weeks apart. That would have raised the ire of another contingent.

Interesting. So you just started commenting on a game you're not playing in order add fuel to the fire?

I think it's less about a hatred of Nicole, rather than their fear of being triggered by any reference to her being with someone other than the MC. I get a bit tired of the double standard and "cuckphobia" I see in most of the forums (here and on the various Discord groups).

>yfw Jeff fashioned a noose out of his equality bullshit, put it around this game's neck and kicked the stool
Hope it was worth it.

I think the problem is that some people see Love Interests playing with any other men as NTR, even if they are not leaving you for the other guy.

Nice one, I like it! But my point was, if some of these cuckphobes hated Nicole and wanted to break up with her there and then, they are obviously not invested in her as a character. So why should they fear any cucking (which she wasn’t going to do anyway), if they’re not attached to her in the first place? Disregarding the whole sexist double standard that the male character can build a harem out of every girl he meets but all these girls can only sit on his dick.

Given that Nicole has no one in mind, but MC has at least 10 potential partners, not much of an NTR vibe there.

Even worse, some people just do not like to see NPC's having sex without MC there, lesbian or otherwise. Whether it is NTR or not, somehow for some weird reason they immerse into the MC in a male protagonist game and want to play his story and not mainly the sex life of other NPC's.
In this case though we are talking about a MC that has been faithful to his girlfriend to a fault, who is being told suddenly out of the blue that she wants an open relationship for whatever reason and that if she finds someone better as him during that, that she is moving on. Yeah talking about equal rights ........ and a fair option to refuse with no consequences.
Now that he has 10 ladies around that the devs of the game want him to spend time with, has no bearing on the fact that that is what happened to MC in the story as was told.

I have almost same fun with guys like him, claiming that they are playing each Mr.Dots game since the beginning.
Really easy to unmask them with a question or two.

No, but in this case she's the business partner / future employee who gives her expert opinion on the tools that she wants to work with.
The butthurt is strong with this one but we still love you.
The main point of the shitstorm was the lack of a proper choice given to players.
Instead of fuelling the shitstorm with trolling and condescending asshat comments the solution to nip this in the bud was pretty obvious - ditch the "stay loyal" choice and replace it with "break off".
There was no need to change anything significant in planned content because the "stay loyal" choice was a dead-end anyway.
But no that was too much for the team's fragile egos and your need for asshattery so you all needed to create more drama.
Good job, guess Mr. Dots realized too late he needed to ball-gag Jeff and you.

Yes, I agree that that is part of my own confusion/frustration. I could understand the reaction if Sister was still having sex with Brodie, the sister is a major, developing love interest. At this stage, Nicole is fast becoming a former love interest.
I remember having a friend who was very covetous of my time and energy. Even though she and I were not intimate, she was threatened by the possibility of me seeking a lover. It wasn't long before she found some guy she was sexually interested in and moved all of her attention to him. I didn't feel "cucked" in the least. I was happy to be free of her demands in a win/win solution.
The double standard reminds me of Mordred's song from Camelot, the Seven Deadly Virtues. He sings that "fidelity is only something for your mate."
I don't know if there will be ntr, cheats or anything else. But what is true is that this decision on open relationship has led to several dozen pages talking about it. With what in a very short time this game has doubled the number of comments it had. Planned or not, it is a success
