World’s Crossing Academy [v1.3.0.4] [TeamEmberWings]

I’ll point out that not behaving like an “ass” doesn’t mean let every girl emasculate or tease the fuck out of you. He’s a martial arts expert enough to have TRAINED people in the story lore; and he gets nervous about a girl that’s half his fucking size, and nowhere near his level of physical power, insisting on trying to fight him. Then he proceeds to whoop her ass, to the point she gets turned on and wants him… It’s less about being a “Beta” at that point than it is tonal dissonance. The author says one thing, then writes the character to be spineless in general. Meanwhile STILL having the ability to win fights… except against an ACTUAL asshole with a knife, who stabs him for the wrong answer. Even though if he were actually a martial artist, he should’ve been able to block the blow and take it more non-lethally…

There’s a difference between being genuinely a nice guy, and being weak. I’m not going to go around calling myself an Alpha. I am dominant minded, but that’s just who and how I am. I know it, people can recognize it, so there’s no need to advertize with words that have been factually disproven but were held for a long while as Wolf Pack ranks. You’re either going to get along with me, or you won’t. I’ll go out of my way to help a friend – but I’m not going to let people walk on me. The MC isn’t written like that.

Frankly I don’t think a stalker (especially a violent one) ever belongs in any of these games; and most definitely not in the harem genre. It doesn’t matter what gender you make them, they are not mentally stable enough to ever trust. Delusion isn’t an attractive mental trait. The fact this one seems to be trying to come to terms and better herself, isn’t a recommendation of her as written. I’m not a fan of slow burns, and if I’m honest she belongs in a mental health facility where she can get help to get over her scars FIRST. Then, maybe in about a decade, she could seek the MC out. Apologize genuinely for the scars she gave him. But this dev seems to think women just can’t do anything wrong, should never be taken into accountability, and if they’re hot enough… that should be enough. But what can you expect from someone that writes a harpy sexual assault, and considers it a “Hot Scene.”

It’s not being a dick to a girl to be firm with her. To let her know there are boundaries and you do not cross them. Not if you care about the person at all. Guys are not endlessly patient and we do have emotions. We are generally bigger, and stronger. We do have the physical advantage. As far as a gentleman never hits a lady, that’s a title. A rank, not a generalization. It doesn’t apply the either gender. Especially when the point being, they don’t get hit back. Someone punches you, it’s going to hurt – and pain is a trigger. In previous eras even not that far back, generations of women knew this. It wasn’t that they were ever scared to speak their minds, so much as they used to be taught to keep themselves safe and be polite. Appreciative of aid given, and not bitter about being pursued. Didn’t make any of them doormats. It just meant they were aware they weren’t immortal, and that there are natural consequences.

As far as the “rape victim” I must not have gotten that far, because I don’t recall any girl’s story being about gang rape thus far. However, not every guy is willing to accept if a woman has had multiple lovers. Wanted or not. In the sense that she was forced; that means scars and hesitation that will reverberate. It will be a thing he’ll have to be careful of – and no one wants to be accused of being the same sort of monster she’s faced. Not everyone wants to walk on egg-shells until she’s “ready.” It’s about what you can handle in a relationship, and how badly you want to be a part of someone’s life. However that does apply to both sides. Not just his. She’ll also have to be willing to make efforts in a romantic effect, if she does want a relationship; and she’s going to have to be ready to go through that. A rape is not a simple thing. There are scars based on nasty things said, wherein she may not understand that she didn’t “want it” just because she gets off during. It’s physical response, and again, natural consequence… but a rapist will twist it to make their victim think it was pleasure. Which will cause a deeper scarring, if she’s not capable of being strong willed, or grounded in that difference with knowledge beforehand. Most aren’t. Many of them happen in a victim’s own home, and a good few by people they thought were friends. It will hurt a significant other if it happens during a sustained relationship, just as much in a different vein, as the victim themselves. Most males are protectively inclined, and won’t like that they can’t fix X. Won’t like to have failed her. Won’t like that she’s now got knowledge of being with someone else, even if it’s not her fault. The last part maybe be forgiveable to a stoic and understanding enough partner, but it does sting the part of a male that is and should be possessive of a mate. It’s easy to forget the point it’s not just your pain when you’re focused rightly on the wound you received. It’s not as simple when you consider all points, as X person just isn’t turned on by a girl who got raped, because he found out she got raped. : /
