While it's weird in its presentation (also why on earth are you replacing "fuck" with "fu$k", this is a forum for porn games), I take it primarily to be your character wanting to establish some interest before fucking her. Really, they probably could let you ask for sex while skipping the flirting, because it feels like it's just your character not acting rather than Cait refusing anything. Hell, if you drink the penis potion in the tutorial, she sucks you off right there in the middle of a cold mountain path even as her kidnapped sister is about to get sacrificed. I don't think it's Cait who's holding out on sex.
Honestly appreciate that warning, it saves a whole lot of a headache moving forward for anyone that wants to romance her not expecting/wanting that kinda thing.
force of habit lol, now that you've said that it's even weirder, They just got (potentially) done bumping uglies with a demon on sight and foes that they know nothing about but won't smash a cute girl even if she's down? I'll chalk it up to an under-site, things can slip from ppl sometimes.
This isn't the rp boards so it's not surprising people take what ya said seriously. (it doesn't sound like rp at all either) >.>''''God forbid I try to roleplay
Using mindless grinding as a fix is never good, that's the fastest way to have anyone switch up. It might not be the intent but it does look weird, you don't see the disconnect between telling her to fuck strangers which she'll do at the drop of a dime, her fucking anyone she fancies, and having to wait through a bunch of texts for it? It ain't deep (a lot in this game isn't deep, except the quest variation, those are mint asf) but the details matter, I said it before, someone in the Dev team just didn't think it through enough.
When someone says they look at you differently when you've done something they don't approve of, what does that imply? If the intent of the talk scenes are to subtly convey she's hypocritical with sex, cool that adds depth to her character, but I don't think that's the case because other character moments and events don't acknowledge or use this fact. And you don't either because of what you said.
I think calling it mindless grinding here is a bit much Melancholy. I hate grinding in games, but this will take you all of about 30 seconds if you want to blitz right through that, it's not a hassle at all. Is it a bit odd that this needs to occur in the first place? Perhaps, I don't have many personal thoughts on it at the moment, but when I think unhealthy grinding I think of the shitty 30% drop rates on Succubus Milk, which you need 9 or so of to recruit Viv if you banished the fiendish blue cat-thing from your Wayfort and can't just buy them.
I believe they meant rp as in getting a bit more in-character whilst playing the game, getting a bit more immersed and actual roleplay are too completely different ballparks and the former is something I imagine a lot of people do to some extent given this is a text based smut game with a bit more emphasis placed on writing and world than most.
Oh I see now, you have to talk to her again right after to not do that. My bad, It didn't occur to me to talk to her again after our chat just stopped and I always went back to Lumia and she wouldn't continue without her.
Christ, that's ruff. Never occurred to me to send the big blue merchant away even as a pure boi. Not all the quests are hits but when they hit it's a home run.
True, but that wasn't my beef; if you look at the problem it undermines both ways of play. According to @Tide Hunter our character is the one holding out (which is true, I checked), which is even worst than my first point. It breaks immersion because our character is down to fuck anything at any time, yet he wants to wait with Cait even tho they are still willing to have others fuck her. Then from a roleplaying perspective, it takes already limited control from the player by saying their character thinks this, what if the player that created the PC doesn't agree with that?
Harvest valley is right there bruh.
Maybe it looks weird to some. But "The Dev Team" you're talking about is Savin who straight up had Cait state that because of where she came from and her upbringing that casual sex is normal for her and she makes that clear to you when you approach her. You're not the one telling her to fuck strangers, she was. Cait is allowed to fuck anyone she fancies just like the PC is. Savin wrote her personal quest (not the one involving Calla, her initial character quest), which is literally you going from Evergreen to Barley and then boom. And all you get is an actual (casual, open mind you, just like she stated) relationship and anal sex, which outside the latter there's nothing different in your relationship with her outside of it being official. If you have a problem with Cait tell him so that he can ignore ya.
Who are you even implying with that first question? Because atm I only have seen Ryn brought up in that sort of thing around here because I haven't played the damn game further than what I'm used to in a looooong time bruh. (At least let me take my time so that I can get context, dang /sarcasm)
Don't even bring that up, I didn't even realize Zo gave away abilities until entering Khor'minos. Grinding will always be uninteresting unless there are major differences in the scenario you are grinding in, the thing you are grinding for is big in reward, or it has a lasting impact throughout the game. I'm not going to bash Harvest Valley because it was one of the early lvls when they were figuring out quest design (which is weird to me since Foothills was the first and it has excellent quest design). It is what it is.
I don't think you understand or you are twisting my words, so let me break down. I do not care that she fucks other ppl, what I'm wondering is why my PC is made to wait in line/grind dialogue when both characters are randy and ready to fuck at any point. It does not make sense or serve a function. This "dialogue gate" makes both characters look weird and it isn't implemented right because both characters aren't given any development outside of this moment that indicates they would wait to fuck someone. From the pc's perspective, the warning is good but the gate should go unless it serves another purpose.
Okay, I'll say it in a simpler way, because maybe I'm too stupid to understand what you're getting at (because I have a hard time getting things):
In hindsight, Foothills is a bit rough, but they were starting to find the grooves of their quest design. A good fix for Arona and Berry is to have sex scenes unlock gradually to signify progress. They had splits in the narrative and last consequences down tho.
In my opinion it seems majority of the clothing and armor is written for women.
