The plot is kinda already ntr, even if what you say about Charlie or any other males not touching any of the lis now or in the future is true.
1. Fetish or not, he blackmails the girl the mc was in love and forces her into marriage. There is already a clear steal here to a love interest, that is basically netorare. Ofc it will be worse if he touched, had sex with her, etc (you replied to me saying he won't touch any of the lis... this is a hard sell hard to believe, considering the marriage.)
2.Strategic or not doesn't matter, the mc is sending him a girl that is in love with him. Also tells one of the lis that he won't care what happens to her... Charlie says he will use her and turn her agains him instead, there is implications that will feel ntr to the player, (Again, if what you replied to me saying that no one will touch any of the girls is true, this at least can give it to you and say is not ntr... though it still gives those vibes after what both Charlie and the mc said about her.)
3.Irrelevant to the point at hand.
Btw, the whole devlog you did doesn't still address those points.
1. "Cuckoldry", like I said before, the villain in this case "Charlie" already did steal the li of the mc and forced her to marry him, that will feel like cuckoldry to the players and ntr no matter what, even if he never touched her. "Humiliation" is what the player may feel after that happened and was also put into jail.
2. This sound like you are planning for things to happen to the "girls" despite what you said before... just what kind of consequences & struggles you mean? maybe you just are bad at explaining lol. May I have you remember what you said about "Humiliation" again? fetish or not, the way you narrate and make the characters, or the players in this case like a powerless beta can still inflict those feelings despite not being "fetishes".
3 & 4, remaining points. I usually never do this but will invite you to our discord, https://discord.gg/MPTWhE9X3h though make sure to reply to this post here since it will serve other people as information in the future. We can address further points there after.

I’ve read both of your comments carefully. I realize you are both coming from the same place: you are worried about 'surprise NTR' and you want the MC to have dignity.
I want to address you both together to clear up two massive misunderstandings about the current plot:
- The 'Marriage' (Emma): You are mistaken—she did not marry the villain. I haven't revealed her full situation yet, but I can confirm right now, they are not married. The Villain has not 'won' her in the way you think. Her situation is unknown, not a lost cause.
- The 'Spy' (Lana): You view sending her as a 'tribute' or 'sharing.' It is not. She is a time bomb. The MC isn't giving her away, he is planting a weapon inside the enemy's base to destroy the man who ruined his life. It is a calculated attack, not an act of submission.
Let me tell you this, not as a developer, but as a man to another man: I hate NTR just as much as you do. I would never write a game where the MC is cucked or humiliated for the player's enjoyment.
I cannot spoil the upcoming twists here on the public page, but if you want to discuss this in detail and get real reassurance, please join our Discord. We can talk openly there.
The game is still in its early phase. Please have a little patience and let the revenge plot cook. If you still feel it’s not for you after the next update, I understand—but don't abandon it now based on a misunderstanding.
