May i be as bold and perhaps a bit rude to say this:
I believe you should have Salvor DEEP embrace the oblivious MMC (Male Main Character) with the NTR approach. Considering you have gone the Kind-of-NTR direction already. As i noticed people, especially your Discord, being conflicted with each other and the direction of Situational/Taste (i am using DLSite filter terminology) NTR content. Been trying to pay attention on your Discord Server and the Salvor-DEEP channel, but man, they talk A LOT, sometimes about the weird water creature on a fairly long basis.
Yes. I know it is not ACTUALLY NTR. You are not truly in a relationship with Salvor Babe, but you still date her at some point. Yes, i know you use Echo Graph to see what is happening, but how i think of it, based on MMCs reactions, does not see or barely see something but no idea what, on the Echo Graph. Unless i am missing something here or confusing myself...
It is not healthy when your Customers and Fans become conflicted with your Content, and they start to do their whole "Rabble" thing over not clearly defined Situation/Taste direction.
Please do not take this poorly. I am only a bit worried with how bothered they are by this and have been talking also on F95 Thread of this game. Not that F95 is something as trustworthy as your own Discord where most likely actual paying customers are on. But even so...
Take care!
