I'll be honest, I'm British, we leave High School at
16. I thought I'd Americanise it because everything asset wise is American, and I thought you could get held back and have 18 Year Olds still in school this way, whereas normally they'd be too old.
Secondly to teach in a school here you have to a degree in teaching, so by making them failures forced to do gym as just a non-examined credit it would enable me to explain why exactly a cop is being given that job without the right qualifications.
I also had planned two of the characters being incredibly embarrassed about even being at school as they were supposed to graduate top of their class the year before, and this would lead to a bullying path by the other girls with non-intervention.
I'll take it onboard and have a think though, like I said, it's not in the game yet, so can be changed.
On another note, to answer the other questions, you cannot violently rape anybody in this game, nor is there any femdom (there will be lesdom if a certain route is followed, but not of the MC). I have about 20 renders left before the next update, hope to have it out by the end of the weekend.
