I guess to your first paragraph, maybe it is up to reader interpretation - for me it leans heavily towards coercion and brainwashing of the girls. The girls in the sanctuary you have literal ownership over - and your only real interactions with them is that they unwillingly have to give sexual services (ok, two are more accepting of it as they have ever only known sexual slavery) . If that’s not sexual slavery, I don’t know what is - I guess I’m not sure why now you’re sugar coating the relationships you have with the girls. Anyway- it’s your prerogative.
To your last paragraph, I guess you are right, I would say my complaint would be that the update story is getting too long and disproportionate to the sex scenes. For me it’s a sex game and I’d keep coming back for that content, but if it moves towards 3-1, I’ll lose interest. In future updates. Last update I had to skip through the whole boat and elf island scene, the wedding scene, etc. so it seems like wasted effort when I’d rather just have 5 new girls or elf’s to corrupt.
Again, it’s your story and your game - so you do you. I’m appreciative for all you’ve done, and your listening to this feedback. You’re a great dev!
