Regarding NTR in MA (Patreon)

Making this one public as it needs to be addressed publicly right away.

So first off, briefly as a summary. Every since the reboot, possibly even before that. Back at the start of this year, we've been receiving plenty of complaints about NTR/cheating elements in the game. Hopefully this won't come to any surprise, but this revolves around Bridget and Lola only.

It would seem nearly each update released, mainly heard from our public crowd of fans. The dislike of said elements, while some offered useful and helpful feedback to ensure we could try our best to adjust some things or be more clear on our end. Others felt more like troll related responses that seemed only to try to spread misinformation.

With that said, we asked our supporters a few days ago in a voting poll about update 0.14 regarding Lola's NTR elements. Trying not to spoil it, but it seems like it would be best overall if we removed all cases of NTR/cheating elements in the game completely. I can't say if by doing this, if we'd see a big jump in support or more fans even, etc. But it just seems like for everyone who does support and enjoy the game regardless if they support or not. That it would be best for everyone.

So the goal in mind is to try keeping things with Bridget and Lola intact, but remove said elements. Below is how I see this happening and what amount of fixing or adjusting is needed.

Bridget luckily from the looks of it only has 2 areas in her content for the game that give off the feeling that she's willing to cheat or do things with other people. So it shouldn't be too bad to fix up the little content for her and for her personal story. It will still stay intact.

Lola is the rough one, as she has about 5 areas in her content for the game that give off that feeling of doing stuff with others, etc. Along with this sadly part of her character story will be changing a little bit to adjust for the changes. Her personality isn't changing or anything major like that, but we'll be changing how things play out with her and John. I don't want to spoil the interesting thing to make things work out, but just know that it'll feel fitting for her character and also no worrying of NTR/cheating.

With that said, I'd like to fix these up for update 0.15's release on October 5th. But since there is a bit of content to fix up and adjust related to this. I'll be doing what I call "Bandaid" fixes, where it's going to be quick little fixes to ensure the NTR/cheating aspects are removed, but still try to roughly keep things intact for their events unless it's really needed to be changed and for those areas that need changed more heavier. We'll try to do it in a fitting way to work out with the scenarios going on, etc.

So hopefully this will be seen as a good change for MA for our fans and possibly future fans or those who were on the fence about playing the game before. Like I said, I don't expect this change to suddenly pull in a bunch of new support or fans. But for everyone who does support and enjoys our game but avoid said content, it seems right to open everything up for everyone.

For those who do like NTR/cheating elements I am truly sorry if you find this change terrible. It's just that the vocal side of dislike for NTR/cheating content has been very vocal. While those who might enjoy said content has been very very quiet, which isn't exactly bad. But even for voting polls, it just seems like NTR/cheating is more harmful for MA even if it's related to those two characters.

Either way, I hope everyone understands and by all means if you have thoughts on this. Please I'd be very open to hearing from either sides, just more information really.
