i really hate ashley, she's so annoying, i hope there would be choises to reject some girls
Viewing post in Harem Hotel (18+) NEW UPDATE! comments
I've completed the story several times. Allow me to elaborate on that!
Ash is annoying to some (including me) because of she being extraordinarily needy and clingy. Not only that, but she does some... questionable things to put it mildly (for example, when she pulls a knife on Maria) that would pretty much get her ejected from most reasonable settings realistically. Some of us get really annoyed at a clingy, needy psycho who seemingly has minimal if any consequences for all of her negative traits.
That being said, her personality does reform to an extent, and removing her would necessitate the rewriting of extraordinarily large amounts in other story lines as well, not to mention it is addressed that her behaviour is out of line at times (like the knife situation is addressed), so I'd rather keep and ignore her.
TL;DR is that Ash has a personality that clashes poorly with some players. And this could be said for every other character. (If I begin to rant about Autumn I'll burst a blood vessel, she is a very well written religious person, and I fucking hate religion, so it's a me problem, not a criticism.)
Though I usually hate yandere types and of course have a strong disdain for people who have a strong tendency for...unwanted sex, like Ashley, I disliked her at first as well but playing through the game she got a hell of a lot better and fits what Runey is trying to do. I see where he's coming from, if you look at the behavior of all the girls in the hotel as is, they all fit a certain personality, if we applied her personality to anyone else you'd feel the same way and like the "new Ashley".
tl;dr you don't hate Ashley, you just hate the personality she has but it's necessary part of the game as each girl stereotypes a personality.
This theme in Ashley's story certainly needs to be refined, especially the peak of her craziness. Her "mask" is a coping mechanism, and that's supposed to be something you don't like, and can see behind. As you advance her story she uses that mask much less as she has no reason to rely on it anymore.
Mercer, people are the personality they have, dumbfuck. Saying I hate Ashley and that I hate her personality is a distinction without a difference. Besides, no, you can't read my mind, and I don't appreciate self-proclaimed psykers. You just can't stand that people have different opinions about stuff so you must rationalize and strawman every dissenting opinion until you think you all agree. See how this mindreading through the internet doesn't work, dipshit?
What Runey does or does not attempt is less than irrelevant, it's a red herring right now. And it's not like Ashleys episodes introduce massive plotholes later like why didn't Android tore her arm clean off when she pulled that knife, or why doesn't Android save MC from literal rape, no, let's just bloody ignore that, because muh where she coming from, *BARF*
Rapeapologia twists my nipple something fierce, as you can see, I'm really not happy to talk to apes like you...
