I always keep an open mind, so I tried this even though I've never played a game tagged with "humiliation" before, 'cause I thought the goth girl could be cute and had potential.
I am now 100% certain that not all kinks and fetishes are equal. This "humiliation" thing is pretty weird and unappealing.
P.S. Unless, of course, this is considered an extreme representation even among the "humiliation" genre. 'Cause it wasn't sexy or playful, it was entirely malicious and insulting.
This is extreme stuff! There's the "humiliation play", that combo very well with femdom and NTS. That "oh, he's so much bigger than you! You tiny dick trash!", but that is keeped between four walls and a closed door! It's just a couple play, with limits and duration! When the play ends, normal lives proceeds! And mainly, with respect!
Here, we dont even see a "couple" properly speaking, because the "gf" doesn't even recognize the MC as her boyfriend. For her, he's just a "plaything", "something for her entertainment". A fool who gives her all the money he gets only to have her attention. Someone "gross", "pathetic", "stupid", "who is inferior to everyone else", and that she absolutely refuses to respect, even if she's living in his house, and being propped up by him!
This was evident when she demanded to know Jim at the office, where she not only openly flirted with him, but also induced him to grope her, and set A DATE with the guy she just met, in front of everyone in the office! And only becoming aware of her "boyfriend" to diminish, humiliate, belittle and disqualify him! This wasn't just lack of respect! It's as if she refuses to see him as a human being, with a complete absense of any shred of empathy!
The relationship of those two lacks all qualities of human relationship! It's more like the relation between a selfish and spoiled brat and her toy! She does whatever she wants with him, and he only accepts all! Until comes the day she gets tired, or breaks him, and simply discards him over "a new toy". Does someone see Cid Phillips with tits here as well?
As for him, the relationship is even more concerning. For some reason, he developed an emotional and psychological dependence over her! This way, no matter what she does to him, he is "too afraid to lose her", so he simply takes it all and endures. With her psychological manipulation (in which she's very good, must give her that), she uses his fears, insecurity and helplessness to convince him that the abuse is his "natural state", and that he actually "enjoy" being abused!
For him, she's like an hypnotic, brain-washing, highly destructive but also highly addictive drug! Once he enters her vicious circle, it's almost impossible to get out!
So you see, this is the impecable example of toxic relationship! And toxic for both of them. He'll keep himself an "abuse junky". And she'll never have a standard of normal human relationship. She'll treat everybody else who gets close to her like this. And not everyone is "abuse junky" material. So, in the end, she'll be alone, except for people who's as nocive and venomous as her! In the last, she'll feel empty, and see her life was senseless, since she build all her life above sand!
I ALMOST feel bad for her! ALMOST!
And I'll not even start with the other characters, who are even worst, because if I keep up this'll end up being a book.
All this only to say: Bullyoukos, you're right. Not all fetishes are equal!
