I don't know if this comment counts as a spoiler, but consider yourself warned.
Gerard is basically the main villain, he's taken over Joel's body and is living out all his fantasies in the first few days. We're not supposed to relate to him, Joel needs to deal with him if he wants to take his own body back over
The story is basically about Joel facing some very weird consequences for what he does in the Prologue and then having to clean up the mess this causes in his own life. The reason we named Gerard and Joel separately will become clear over the following days in the story.
I hope this clears up some of the issues. I can't go into more detail right now without reaching outright spoiler territory, but we're really thankful for the feedback you guys are giving us.
Okay, but the main question (which I believe more people have too), is if in the first sexual intercourse, it would be with the mind of the mc or the old man.
But I want to make it very clear, I'm not suggesting you change the script or anything like that, make the game you imagined, what you idealized. Don't keep changing the script based on other people's suggestions, because it will end up in a mess, and distance yourself from what you imagined.
I made these comments (questions), because I've been through this a few times, we like a game, we support the developer, and up front he changes the whole course of the story (sometimes for money, that stuff), and ends up putting something that we don't like, which generates frustration and indignation.
So I believe that to avoid confusion, endless arguments, it would be good for you to make this clear, if you will have these scenes with the old man in charge.
I know this will be a spoiler, but you should know that not all surprises are good.
And if we come across these scenes (which, yes, will be considered ntr by most), there will be a flood of negative comments here.
Anyway, make your game, but if possible, warn in advance about possible tags that generate confusion and divide opinions.
In my case, I will follow the game through the comments, I don't want to be disappointed (if any) again.
