I think one problem with female protag games is how the rewards and punishments are all flipped. Like if you assert yourself and make your own choices, the reward is less sex... in a porn game.
Can you explain anymore?

I was just playing a Wife and Mother and in one case to get what I actually wanted out of the update I had to intentionally fail an event.
Which event was this?

Make it an all-girl game.
This.

I'm obviously not the target audience here, but I can only really tolerate lesbian fem protag games. It's tolerable when the MC is a creepy jerk entirely driven by his giant cock but I can't bring myself to play as the (un)willing target of such a guy's affection.

Specifically, there are lots of scenarios in female protagonist games where you lose a bet, or do something that leads to your character getting blackmailed. Another character then decides to take advantage of you, meaning they push you to do something you don't want to do.

On a meta level you see it coming and can avoid it if you don't want your character being taken advantage of, but all that it leads to is missing out on sex content.

Chloe 18 does a good job of averting this. If you see a situation where Chloe could be taken advantage of, you can sometimes choose to have Chloe choose to take advantage of the person who was going to do that to her (though in the text of the game she never admits to actually enjoying this or being attracted to the person she's justified in taking advantage of).

It's kind of the Madonna/whore dichotomy. Where if your character succeeds in being self assertive or a "good girl" it just means you lose out on sex. And all the sex comes from a form of punishment which sucks on a meta level, because you're playing the game for the purpose of experiencing the sex.


Which event was this?
Specifically it was the music quiz, if you get all the questions right the frat boys dance with each other, if you fail it then you have to kiss your sister and it pushes you further down the lesbian/incest paths.

I want her to have a brain and be female for once.

I'm more than tired of all those female protagonists that can't think by themselves and/or are just a male in disguise. Females aren't males. Even when they are sex craving nymphomaniac sluts, they still don't act and think like males do.

Female Protagonist Game Wishlist;
(1) the option to play full on slut puppy from the start instead of being corrupted/brainwashed/blackmailed
(2) the option of a gold star lesbian route
(3) the option of a lesbian female protagonist getting "fucked straight" route
(4) female aggressors. (4a) Co-Worker or Rival who wants to ruin the female protagonist or enslave her. (4b)As a counterpoint to the second half of (3), maybe the female aggressor hates that female protagonist is straight and wants to turn her into a lesbian fuckslave.
(5) The vast majority of the female protagonist games I've played, the female protagonist has been White or "Anime White/Asian". I'm not saying it because "Representation", I just like variety and I'd like to play with a sexy as fuck Black Chick with a huge Ghetto Booty, or a Sensual Latina, etc.

"What would you like to see/want In a female Protag Game"

Probably everything from a male protag. The game I'm currently deving has both male and female MCs with significant changes depending on your anatomy, especially (ofc) sex scenes.

Quite well thought-out, rather, and aptly said. Kudos.

I think I'm one of the few devs that have character creation with non-gender locked anatomy in their game. Of course, it's a RPGM game, so it's more text heavy than visually heavy.

1. As much player agency as possible. No ero-content happens to MC without asking you first, or warning you that a route contains it. If you want to be a total prude throughout the entire game, you can be. Oh, and MC either starts out inexperienced or you have that option on character creation.

2. Lots of options for ero-content, but not much of it dependent on different, unrelated content. I've played VNs that have overall "Slut" meters or numbers, with a lot of scenes having a number requirement. It's not the worst, but it forces you to do content you may not care for, just to drive the number up for other scenes you do want. I'd rather have a really good writer, and different variations for each scene depending on MC's past experiences, rather than being locked out of them entirely. Though I realize that's not always feasible.

3. Non-con is a big no-no, but I love to see surrendered consent, where a submissive MC willingly gives up the opportunity to stop whatever happens to them next.

4. Tomboy protagonist. I'm not attracted to masculine bodies, but excessive femininity (in appearance or mannerisms) puts me off and is a downside if I'm supposed to relate to the MC. When given the option (usually in text-based games), I go with an androgynous character that has female genitalia.

One thing I often notice and kinda sick of, that they are always bi-sexual.
It's so tiring to see and how refreshing would it be to have a female MC that is straight.
Also hate that they won't cheat on their boyfriends/husbands but have no issues having sex with other women since in some creator's minds it doesn't count(I'm looking at you JOHN), it most certainly counts.

A lesbian game based on an established property like Justice League, Sailor Moon, Miraculous Ladybug, WINX Club, and Overwatch.

I'm pretty sure all women in real life are bi-sexual.
