That's pretty understandable. The first half of the game with the visitor was my favorite part and I was hoping he'd stick around longer. I kinda thought his character was going to go somewhere since he felt like a perverted dumbass but he never had any bad intentions. That along with his history with Kaede made me want to see him break her cold exterior and show a different side of her but he bailed too quickly. When the coach came into the story I had a lot of mixed feelings. On one hand, I felt that he was going to be in the story since he played a major role in the first game. His actual scenes and character in this game are actually pretty good, especially with the call backs and parallels to the previous games. The mixed feelings mostly came from the MC's decision making and how rapidly his mental faculties dropped off of a cliff. I was pretty sympathetic towards him throughout most of the game and even after he made his stupid decision to get the coach involved I was hoping he would snap out of it. The real point where I gave up on him was the first time skip. After the hot spring inn scene where he revealed himself to Kaede I was hoping that common sense would kick in and he'd call everything off or at least make Kaede stop seeing the coach. Instead he made Kaede marry the damn dude. At that point I lost all respect for the MC and seeing Kaede suffer like this kinda killed my vibes. It didn't really even feel like netorase or even NTR, it just felt like the MC was forcing her to prostitute herself. It was still entertaining to me, but less in a hot way and more in a 'Jesus Christ this is fucked up but I want to see where this goes' kinda way. I think if the dev made a happier ending or at least one where the MC snaps back to reality and makes the coach back off then the ending we got wouldn't be that bad. I said before that with how the game ends, there's some ambiguity in that Kaede still loves the MC and its still possible for him to save the relationship so an update that takes place after that would be interesting but the MC's character's already hit rock bottom so that'll be unlikely.
Nahh, MC is too fucked up, any happy ending would require external help, like for example have the visitor come back and see the whole situation (this would be an alternate route before pregnancy i think) and basically become the hero of the story, other "happy" ending would be Kaede falling as in stop caring for the MC, i for once would love to see an ending where Kaede gets feed up with him and embrasses the coach fully, while telling the MC that he is some piece of shit, hell have Aya come back too for the same reason.
Btw is it clear he told Kaede to marry the old guy or was it just that he didn't stop it?
