There wont be any changed in The Haunting Nightmare. Dev will only pile down her bitchy attitude because he wants her to portray as a victim, you can read this on his latest post in his game thread. But I agree with what you said. We dont really know why she cheated on MC, but if its just because of lust and malice I dont think this game has much of a future. Dont get me wrong, for a simple revenge story, like this one, suits well a simple reason for it. But it still will leave the player with a distasteful taste in your mouth for the rest of the playthrough...at least for me.I did play THN, actually. Speaking of, looks like there will be changes to that Ex's story again. But yea, they're different in that; THN ExGF cheated for self-preservation at the cost of the MC (I made a post there about how I understand but don't forgive her for what she did), while this (soon to be) ExGF seems to have done it out of lust and malice. In THN's case, I just simply wished to move on and not take her picture which seems to maybe lead to blackmail in the future? In TV's case, I want revenge. The difference is in why they cheated. The relationship is over in either case - cheating is cheating, there is no salvation on that road - but the MC's actions moving forward are driven by that 'why'.
I'm not sure that there won't be a love path in this, though. There seems to be options to take the moral high ground, which seem weird given that the MC's powers are definitely not saintly. The power he has seems inherently immoral given that it is based in corruption, however mild it may be. I have no ill-will towards the boss' wife or daughter, but unfortunately if you give me a revenge story I will play it as if the MC has lost his moral compass and there are no innocents on the path to revenge (if given the options, anyway). I'm a true sucker for revenge stories done right. I'm a slut for revenge - it's really the only time I can get into a corruption arc, at least.
well i spoke to soon.but hey at least this one doesnt seem to be a rape victim.
i'm mostly OK with her Kink but her watching MC's ex does kind of ruin it. and i dont think she was aware that she was MC's ex. but even then it doesnt help much. overall her being a closet perv was somehow cute.That scene with Rei alone made me want to drop this game, whole thing about her getting off to people fucking in the office doesn't sit right with me. Just knowing that she was watching the MC's ex being fucked by his boss is weird as fuck.
I'm not opposed to voyeurism content, more so how she herself goes about it. I wasn't trying to insinuate that she was aware of the boss fucking MC's ex and more so the player (us) knowing. Just weird imo.i'm mostly OK with her Kink but her watching MC's ex does kind of ruin it. and i dont think she was aware that she was MC's ex. but even then it doesnt help much. overall her being a closet perv was somehow cute.
yeah being a voyeur is tricky in this case. i mean it's pretty common that the scenarios are either spy on people via spycam or they just happen to be getting it on when you look out the window, doorway, etc. however i guess in the future she can watch mc get it on.I'm not opposed to voyeurism content, more so how she herself goes about it.

But yeah her being a shy closet pervert isn't anything I'm against, her introduction is what left a bad taste in my mouth. Cheers.
