You're making the assumption, there's absolutely no reason to come to this conclusion. There are plenty of people agreeing with you and plenty agreeing with me, so why be pedantic? If I qualified the use of "we" as though I'd said, "we, every last person in this thread", I could understand - but you're literally arguing over nothing with no basis in the use of English language. I invite now as the time for you to provide evidence from a recognized authority on English to prove what you're saying. You can't. Please don't lecture people on a language you don't understand.
You "dislike the way of trying to sound impactful"? Aren't you familiar with the ways language is used to express ideas? I don't understand why this would upset you so much.
to be enough people concerned about it if you'd just read the thread.
Oh, I am not upset. I may be pedantic - gotta admit that - but not upset as such.
Any pronoun needs something to refer to somebody/a group of people by definition, that is why it is a
pronoun. "He is hungry" is useless if you don't know who "he" is. Same with "we". There is no "I and some others" unless you specify it. If you use it without context it falls back to default which here is everybody who could be in it, i. e. all.
I never said or implied "fucky-fucky" creates a narrative. It's a porn game
I am gonna stop you right there because it has been said multiple times that it isn't. It is an adult game. Which means it contains porn but it isn't about porn as the main driving factor.
In my opinion (if that wasn't clear enough), and I can express my opinion as can anyone else in this DISCUSSION thread: the wheels are coming off and this story is racing into boredom and irrelevance because it doesn't reconcile fucking with story.
Firstly, this includes my opinion as well as yours, so I am just as much allowed to voice it as you are. Secondly, your opinion that the game is boring is perfectly fine, as already said, but you are judging the game on some metrics it does not want to meet. Sure, you can consider the music of Beyoncé boring because it is just generic pop without impact, and I would be with you all the way, however, she isn't going for the music we like, so we would only be allowed to judge actual quality aspects. We can say we consider it boring but it would be pointless because what we want is not what she is going for.
I can complain all I like and so can anybody else, nothing about that is moot because this is the exact place for that kind of dialogue. If you want to worship devs and not have reasonable discussions, Discord is the place for you, not this pirate forum.
Again, you are complaining that you do not like the cake because you wanted a steak. Which would be perfectly reasonable if you had been promised a steak but you haven't. If you don't want to have the promises on the inside of your eyelids, I am happy to remind you.
why don't you tell me why porn is in this narrative-focused game at all? Because now you're talking like the game isn't meant to be titillating and that makes no sense whatsoever. Don't you understand that pay-off for characters in the game is about having a narrative that makes sense of the sex scenes? Not just going on and on forever? Who apart from you is calling that a moot point? In fact, there seems to be enough people concerned about it if you'd just read the thread.
Why is porn in a narrative focused game at all? Because why not? There is no reason to only have one or the other. And there is no reason, if you want to have one of them in it to go to any extreme.
And yes, the game is titillating, however not everybody has the same preferences as you and preferences in terms of speed of development (I mean of the stories, not of updates here) and wants for background on a character before going into action differ. I would guess even within the same person, depending on how much they get involved with the storyline and how they feel on a certain day.
And while I will not disagree with "pay-off for characters in the game is about having a narrative that makes sense of the sex scenes", I will disagree with the order of what you say - not every story is "narrative so the sex makes sense but we're here for the sex", there is "sex is a part of the narrative, since it comes to it". But yes, I do want those scenes to happen in the end. But stuff can be easily the conclusion to a story without it being the main focus.
As to "who apart from me is calling" and so forth: I will not claim to be able to speak for others but from this thread I very much gather that most of the regulars are happy with the way the story develops (if not with the release schedule). I mean, that's why they're regulars. Would
JJJ84 ask as many questions about characters' backgrounds if he was only here for the fap? Would
whichone take stances as he does? How about
Abhai or
Ayhsel or
c3p0?
Of course they might disagree. Or even if they agree we might be the victims of group think. But there are enough people who chose this very game and follow it because they are happy with how it is done. And, to repeat a point, how it is intended to be done.
