In general, most story tellers feel that stories require conflict of some kind to be good stories. If there's nothing left for the characters to overcome, or challenge their lives then there's nothing that really entices them to grow. I think that's why the drama is there.Appreciated the wins in terms of Stacy (fuck yes), Natalie (again, fuck yes), but man, some of the story development is just becoming, I don't know, weird for me. Like, this is a harem game, and I don't typically enjoy those kinds of games that much. Knew that going in.
I initially was down with it due to the characters and the quality of the eye candy. That kept me going for a while and I was a big advocate for this game, telling everyone and anyone they should play it. Admittedly, I like the peripheral characters more just due to the fact that they were given some attention, and I defo play with the trans characters because of...reasons.
I'm not sure anymore though. I still enjoy the game, though I kind of find the writing to be inching in on shit territory. Like the DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA thing...and believe me, I realize this is fantasy land...has gotten kind of tiring for me.
I'm not meaning to be a downer on anyone. Everything I just said is simply the opinion of this fuckup . Bailey still is one of the hottest pieces of ass in video games. LOL. Anyways, carry on. Hope y'all are well.
Now, that does not at all mean that you have to like the way that conflict was added to the story. What a person likes is very subjective, and individual. There are a lot of potential ways to add that conflict to this story, without all the drama. It would be easier to have different sources of conflict if the main character had not already been written to be amazing at so many things.
That being said, I don't personally have an issue with the current writing. I like the way the story is developing. The character being amazing at the things they're amazing at doesn't bother me. The drama doesn't bother me. In fact, the stuff with Millie seems pretty unavoidable for someone just starting college very publicly starting up a harem, even in an age where polyamory is more accepted.
I guess it helps me to keep in mind what the possible intended purpose of the drama is (I can't know for sure if that's correct, since I'm not the writer).
