Sounds a bit like “I hope it stays that way, because I think it’s nice for that thing that I’m not into personally to not even be an available option for all the people who are. I’m not into it. And that’s what matters.”
Though in the interest of fairness I’ll admit that there are some things that are very popular that I personally find to be stupid, annoying, or am just indifferent towards. But I don’t really see a reason to celebrate it being unavailable if it was something optional that I wouldn’t have had to partake in anyway if I didn’t want to.
Seems like it'd be kind of selfish to consider anything that you aren’t into, that gets some attention, to be a waste. If it was something more niche, or not fitting with the setting of the game then maybe. But if it’s something that’s generally popular and enjoyed by many, then why applaud its absence and others' denial of it? (Unless it was a case of the dev just not wanting to, and not caving into attacks and demands made by a bunch of fans who were being rude and abusive or something.)
In my own opinion, what makes WVM particularly of note on this matter is that besides its stand-out quality, for people with harem fantasies who also greatly enjoy girl-girl play being thrown into the mix, its in-game situation happens to be a paradise of opportunity. So I think at least some vocal frustration or inquiry is both understandable and a bit inevitable if it just doesn't happen lol.
There are some people who are full-blown cuckolds, who are into extreme humiliation and can only ever get off to NTR. There are other people who would consider it cheating and betrayal if Jaime and Shauna’s hands ever even accidentally brushed together lol. There's also a wide spectrum between the two. And it'd be both a tall order and probably detrimental in the end if a dev ever tried to satisfy everyone along that spectrum in one game. But WVM imo leans heavily towards the latter of those two groups (of which I'm glad, and would personally rather that than the other lol). And I think that "harem with optional girl-girl" still leans much more in line with that, and wouldn't feel out of place in WVM like something in the other direction would, because it is all still revolving around the MC.
But different strokes for different folks of course, and at the end of the day it is BD’s game.
I haven’t followed the game closely. So I don’t know whether or not BD is actually against MC/Jaime/Shauna ever becoming more of a throuple, and if everything involving sexual affection or even casual play is always going to be 110% solely directed towards the MC even during threesomes. But I do remember this game seeming to consistently give the player an impressive amount of freedom of choice and preferences in a lot of different areas. So personally I hope that trend continues with at least that situation as well. So those who want their polyamorous or group love/fun (with the MC's dick still being the only one ever present or desired lol) can have that, and those who want all 20 (or however many) girls in the harem to have everything in their entire universes revolve solely around the MC in an almost cult-like worship
(and joking aside, I do also see the appeal in that), can have their dream setup as well. Cheers.
