Oh ffs.

The biggest complaint amongst fans is the lack of authentic mono routes that don't revolve around, or feel centred around a poly dynamic. That's literally all they're asking for, just *one* authentic mono route and yet...???

Hopefully we get a new character that's not a forced Polly like the rest, so far all we have is Hazel 🙄 Yet her whole story pretty much get's swallowed by Milo/Mal too so...? Guess that leaves Pen who barely has any scenes, wonder how long until they're forced into some kind of poly dynamic too.

The Author originally claimed you could romance Milo solo, then after releasing it and people began to realise that *wasn't* true and the story was clearly setting up a poly route she then backtracked and added a disclaimer *after* people already bought it. Now it's gone even further and she's making Mal/Milo a locked Poly that stay together no matter what, which just confirms the fact so may fans have been saying, that they're "meant to be together" while you, the MC are... just not as important to them. 

This is proven by the fact that unless you forgive Milo for murdering and betraying you... then you're locked out of Mal's route too, because he will choose to stay with Milo over you, he will defend Milo over you, and since there's no platonic route and Pen's romance hasn't been written then there's literally nothing you can do.

Seems like the author wanted to write a book, but changed it into an IF at the last minute and added a self insert with barely any agency. It's not a story about MC, it's a story about two couples and we just happen to be there to watch the drama.

I don't care if this sounds harsh, Actually I hope it does considering the way people are treated for showing the *slightest* bit of criticism. I've seen people who *paid* for the story try to give valid points and make detailed reviews and yet what did the author do...? run to Tumblr and complain about the reviews, then make condescending statements on her Patreon about fans who bring this up, and if that wasn't enough her other fans will just do the same and dogpile you into leaving.

Calling comments that bring up issues within the story or any slight critique as "inconsiderate" is absolutely pathetic, even more so when you tell the author to actively ignore people who literally *paid* for the game.

You're forgetting that many people paid for the first book, and if they have critiques then that's completely valid, especially since it wasn't until "inconsiderate" comments brought up the fact that the author originally hid Milo's poly route and even claimed he had a solo route.

If it wasn't for those "inconsiderate" comments, the author never would have put up the disclaimer to make fans aware.

if it wasn't for those "inconsiderate" comments, more people would have paid out of their own pocket for a game that doesn't deliver on what it claims.

it's all well and good saying this now that the author *eventually* put up a disclaimer and framing it as "inconsiderate" but fans were well within their rights to get a clear answer from the author especially when they *paid* for something.

The fact that you and the authors fans on Tumblr pretty much just tell them to "ignore" any criticism really says a lot.

Lmao, ur going to hate the new update then, authors forcing them to be poly regardless, pretty much proves that Milo and Mal are meant to be together while our chaarcter just tags along.

Nope, author now switched up again and said him and milo are beig a poly only option, so now anyone who doesnt want to get with the dude that lied to you constantly, killed you and betrayed you... well, you lose out on two romances... guess all thats left is the women, (sucks if uou're gay) or gabriel, whos still obviously in love with bella 

U should put this on there steam, suprised you've not got a dozen people giving you shit for this review, but I doubt the author cares anywya, theyre getting their money now, screw the fans huh 

Lmao, judging from the drop in fandom and the downvotes you're getting, the majority made itself clear.
The only way the author can recover the fanbase it once have is with the new characters, but considering how theyve handled everything else I doubt any of them will be solo either, not to mention the sheer lack of content those characters will have compared to the others from book one.

Well... looks like most of us have to just accept that we payed money for soemthing thats never going to happen... i payed for the first book before the author added in that little bit about milo being a poly only option, had hoped he would atleast have a mono option, but from the authors tumblr they're making him a forced poly.

i wanted to romance mal instead, couldnt stand milo after what he did and the cosntant 'woe is me' bullshit, yet now i have to give up on two romances... it's been obvious from day one most of the fanbase would love a mono milo/malcom option, but instead of being upfront from the start the author basiclly waited months/years after everyone already bought the game and then just changed it at the last second, and if anyone dares criticise them they get dopiled,.

can't even express urself in this 'fandom' without being dogpiled by people...

Nah, it just depends on what level of 'poly' you want.

gabe is obviously still in love with Bella, pretty much jumps at the chance to accept her into the relationship, so his is more 'dont' acknowlege the fact he's always open to being ina  poly... and Milo is straight up forced poly, author originilly hid that from people before it got complaints.

author basiclly guaranteed that you can't be in a relationship with two of the characters if you arent ok or forgive the dude that literally stabbed you, murderer youand betrayed you because he and malcom are forced polly.

pretty sure hazel is the only full mono relationship... and even then a dozen of her conversations lead back t Milo/Mal. Pretty sure there's even a moment in book one where she's all "they're made for eachother" like??
