(Prefacing - this comment is long and I'm very dyslexic. I tried to make sure it's all good, but you know how it is :p)

The page says everything is avoidable, but it's not. At least not in a really good way. On top of the tags not being the most accurate.

If you get a blowjob from Hazel in the beginning, you have to get a footjob at the restaurant. You don't exactly get a choice about it, which feels... shitty? A blowjob in the bathroom of a cafe that is temporarily closed and a footjob in the middle of a busy restaurant are two very different things. I get that you can't just make a billion different paths for every little thing, but promising in the page that 'everything is avoidable', that creates assumption that you can back out of certain kinks and scenarios that aren't particularly up to your liking without any issues. 

I'm not trying to be that guy, but if you have to completely avoid all NSFW content up to a certain point to avoid a specific scene that doesn't really feel like advertising that everything is avoidable is the most honest. You have no way of knowing what path you're on until Hazels feet are on your dick.

Also - I think it would've been quite important to have it tagged that Hazel would call you daddy in the game at some point. 

And another thing, I would argue that being flashed is dub-con at least. As it happens in the Mrs. Jones videocall, it is your choice whether you stay or not, but even if you do control what buttons you press, the main character in the game was not aware it was going to happen, and could not possibly in any way consent to it. Dubious, at least. I do not mind it, but someone out there might be upset by it.

This isn't hate, I just really want better tagging of stuff like this. The only way you can find what you like, and avoice what you don't, is by accurate and robust tagging. You don't have to go word for word, line by line, and add literally everything, but things like flashing, daddy kinks, et cetera, are important to know before they happen, and I would rethink whether or not everything can really be considered avoidable.

Hey, I appreciate the lengthy feedback!

I want to preface by saying, this build is a year and a half old, and I don't remember exactly what is in it, but!

Everything is avoidable. We even have an NSFW warning option, so you know if a choice will lead to porn or not.

I agree that you can't back out of certain sexual encounters once you have agreed to one. It's not well done. There are a few scenes that assume that since you're into (insert character), you're down for more.

I, however, do disagree with a "daddy" tag. Calling your sexual partner "Daddy" or "Baby" during sex is extremely commonplace. It would be like expecting a shooter game to tag "Pistols"; you should expect them to be there. It's not a "Father" or "Daddy" kink, but just... something people shout during sex.

Yeah, Mrs. Jones coming on to you in the call and exposing herself is a bit sketchy. Not knowing it was going to happen is sort of the point of the scene, since later you meet that character and (hopefully) understand her desperation to do anything to get out of her situation. I do my best to let people avoid it, but the scene is sudden and shocking on purpose. It serves the narrative.

All that being said, since the game is currently restarting, many of these issues won't be problems anymore, as they are shortcomings I have noticed, and that partially led me to restart my game.

As for tagging, I honestly don't know what people want tagged and what they don't. I would never think to tag "Daddy." Maybe the community can just call it out when it happens, and I'll add it. But then there is also the problem of something happening once, getting tagged, and people thinking the whole game will be like that. For instance, you, as the player in this build, can cheat on a date. So, tag cheating. Then I get people asking if the whole game is you cheating, being cheated on, getting cucked, NTR'd, etc etc. All for one scene.

So, it's tough and weird because people will jump to wild conclusions.
