Recommending Western Sharing Games List

And guess what Esoterika has unavoidable NTR

News to me, thanks. If you know of any other western games with unavoidable or hard to avoid NTR please let me know.

It’s an interesting debate
From the perspective of a Vanilla fan, an NTR game is illogical. Conversely, from the viewpoint of an NTR fan, a Harem game makes no sense...
Both sides present valid arguments, though counter-examples exist for both—meaning high-quality games can be found in either genre...
However, this suggests that, on average, Sharing games are more logical and believable than those strictly focused on NTR or Vanilla. This is because they depict a world where other men are active participants, yet the Main Character can still emerge successful, much like in real life. To be clear, I am referring to the well-executed examples of Sharing games

Who the fuck said realistic? It's completely ridiculous that strippers are only doing it for one guy in the whole town. What a stupid setting for an avn just to appease all the sexist male avn enjoyers.

Ren'Py - Shared Desires [v0.1] [CasaliusAfterDark]
Another for the to watch list...
Planned Tags look promising and it's ok so far, has potential.

>BBC
>kinetic

an easy skip

As a player I can say that I generally don't mind kinetic storytelling (and often even prefer it), but in sharing games the ability to say NO is a big part of immersion for me. Without that I do feel a bit like in an NTR game where 'it' happens regardless of your agency. Like yeah, technically the MC agrees, but I, the player, don't, and I can not convince myself otherwise. Hence the immersion of being in control, of being the one who approves, is ruined.

Ok, so dropping In-Security from my play list. After talking more with the dev, it's not working for me. The only two potential sharing/cheating partners are Cade (creepy boss) or Darius (cringe BBC). He said they may add more male characters down the road.

I also asked about Finn being more involved with Luna's escapades, like having him participate with her, he said that is not planned as of now.

So, if you like creepy bosses, BBCs or cuck stuff - Joshy, it's for you. Not for me.

I come down with Joshy here though I try and be civil as i said on last page, problem isnt that it's not realistic, it's that it's not realistic in a setting that most of its supporters hate.

After looking through a few pages of debate, here are my thoughts..... Are you guys seriously fighting over this game? "Realistic" or "believable settings" or whatever terms to be used here, imo the game at its current stage was too boring to even worth the amount arguments it caused here.

I stand by that comment. It doesn’t make sense at all because what’s another person having sex with your SO going to do to save your marriage? I know these are games, but a lot of them start off with, “my SO and I aren’t having sex anymore because “insert mundane reason” and it’s bothering me. Why not just look up cucking/sharing my SO/opening our relationship so that our marriage could be saved? I much prefer games where the protagonist is already interested in the topic and brings it up in a way that isn’t just, “please I’m begging you to do this for me, for us.”

And guess what Esoterika has unavoidable NTR

I just finished the current update of Esoterika and didn't get NTRd. I see that in the description the dev claims the game will explore or have unavoidable NTR but until it does that's counting your chickens before they hatch given how frequently games get abandoned or change direction. At the rate it's going - after a year and a half MC just got his first bj/hj from the LI and she briefly kissed another man- it seems like it might take a very long time to get there.

Totally with you here, I said it repeatedly myself - sharing in an already fragile relationship is a terrible idea and always end up in a cuckold story. Well, it's already cuckold, because to save their marriage the husband should let his wife fuck other men - it's as cuckold as you can get. So yeah, I haven't played this game, but everything (BBC, kinetic, fragile marriage) points at that the story will have a very cuckold vibe.

Yeah, I think the whole saving the marriage thing is either a misunderstanding or poor escalation of the original trope of spicing things up. The marriage itself shouldn't be in danger, but the sex life has become boring so let's try [insert any number of fetishes] to keep things exciting/new.

I just finished this game
Although the developer didn't mention cheating in the planned tags—referencing 'sharing/hotwife/stagvixen' instead—the game did, in fact, contain cheating
In a flashback, back when Helen and James weren't married yet but were still dating, Helen is with a man named Arnold. While Helen is completely naked, they share two passionate kisses, and at that moment, Arnold fondles Helen’s bare backside
While the definition of cheating can vary from person to person, I personally consider this to be cheating
I’m mentioning this so that the members here who are fans of sharing content are made aware

I'm glad to have some kindred spirits in this thread. I'm also strongly anti-kinetic novel. Honestly, no matter how good the writing and renders might be, if I have absolutely no control over the pacing, no choices, and its just an endless one-directional narrative, I have a hard time keeping my interest. There are several non-sharing games on here that honestly check most of my boxes of what I want, but because of the format, I'll "read" them for a while (next page/next/next/etc) and eventually stop and give up and do something else. When a game has a format where I'm in control of the pacing, and especially if a "chapter" is condensed to visiting one person or area, I keep up with it and am into it so much more strongly. Even if the actual meaningful content is exactly the same.

It's my fault...

Agree. That flashback irritated me, and killed the 'mood' of the story fast...
It's in development, so dev can make changes, but won't hold my breath.

From what I've seen, the sharing/swinging lifestyle can wreck a good marriage if either partner didn't think it through before starting. If that's the case, how on earth would a troubled marriage hope to do well?

Not trashing the lifestyle, just saying that for it to work the couple needs love, trust, open honest communication, and mutual respect. How many troubled marriages have all 4 of these qualities going for them?

Flashbacks, or "future views" are f'n annoying to me.
Unless dev is actually trying to portray a mistake that a character made in the past, or a warning about the possible consequences of one, they are only appropriate for me, if its part of a redemption arc, with the character (MC or FMC) saying "I will not go down this road" again or in future.
Otherwise it's just one big plot-kill usually. Telling me my choices are in vain, and I am most likely being rail-roaded.

The ones that don't annoy me, and the ones I do like, are when a character (or both) comes back home and relates the story as part of a damn hot after-care spicy-as-hell fuck session...straight after, not 3 weeks later... yeah, those I don't mind

Exactly. I want to highlight that last line of yours
I really dislike it when the FMC—under the pretext of 'tension' or 'teasing' or whatever—doesn't tell the MC about something that happened today in the absence of both the MC and the player (meaning they didn't even show us the scene), only to reveal it to the MC days later after hours of gameplay
Fortunately, this behavior is very rarely seen in Western sharing games; it’s mostly a characteristic of Japanese-style games

I want to apologise to everyone for being so salty and rude the other day. I shouldn't lash out like that. I generally agree with most of what's said in this thread and I like the people here so I wanted to apologise.
