I always want to be bossy and playful, but it sometimes feels like MCs can only be bossy x mean or meek x sweet. Have you played the demos for Ebon Light or Changeling? The former has chooseable personality types (charming, cunning, and tenacious) and a fair amount of teasing (but little flustering so far), while the latter forced me to break my "no more high school games" rule because the MC is amazing (as well as the rest of the cast). She's super snarky but more funny than mean (err by my standards anyway), and I'm pretty sure she's not going to go timid on us anytime soon.
The kind options were pretty sweet, but still good. I liked how they felt more diplomatic/mature than meek. I was happy with them until I learned I could harass the boys in fierce mode. I played kind mode with Neil first, but I haven't been able to be anything but fierce with Dimitri yet. Even being fierce, there are still some very sweet moments. I think people will like one or the other at least, and I see a lot of praise for games with tougher MCs. Your's is a bit unique in that she's both tough and very feminine, which goes well with running a boutique. I also like how neither feels like the default mode. Sometimes personality choices in games can lead to feeling like I'm choosing the wrong one, but both felt really natural in TT.
Are you considering any make-up options? Or more face options in general? OH! I forgot to mention how giddy I was when I saw the addition of boots. I'm a great fan of boots. <3
It's never too late to add the MC question!
