The tag would attract players specifically interested in NTR, yet they would not find what they expect in the game, judging from its description in a message above.
Meh, Karryn's Prison exist.
I don't fuck with NTR in the slightest but I've at least played Karryn's Prison and that game has like the most unobtrusive barely there but ever present NTR I've ever seen. I feel like it's a spectrum.
In this game literally all bad ends are either the heroine's love being stolen from her or by her.
There's even NTR in the main story where the heroine NTR's a man away from that man's girlfriend.
Tag your game with it, and as long as it's there I don't see why the fans of that content would be disappointed? Especially when all bad ends have it present?
The gray zone is broad, yet as the genre is already based on emotional laceration, many people would naturally prefer to steer clear from any remotely related elements. Perhaps the opposition between perspectives would compromise on proliferation of cases where borderline-NTR games get the NTR tag, regardless of whether they are NTR ot not.
Devs are retarded.
NTR is a strong element. Even in small doses it affects the product.
It's like gay content. If your game has some gay content, you should add the yaoi tag. If your game has some futa content you should add the futa tag. It doesn't need to be the majority of content. Circle Teckua's games are NOT majority futa, and yet they still tag their games futa.
Why develop a game where every bad end, the heroine's love is stolen from her, and then not give it an NTR tag? It makes no sense. It's almost like they developed an NTR game by accident, not realizing what they were doing, which takes an extra level of idiocy in my opinion.
Though not always, there was a similar discussion here about DREAMLAND, whether it was NTR or not, and that succubi game was a much weirder case. Its thread did have a blue NTR tag at one point, later removed.
I don't know about that. I remember a discussion on Bestiality in Dreamland but not NTR specifically...
On that note, regarding Circle Tekua, their Succubus Tower 2 seemed more of a NTR game than this one. Simply due to a single bad ending, where the succubus-turned girlfriend of the MC kills him, then bursts into tears over his dying body as she discovers that he was still wearing a medallion she had once made for him. That single bad end from the dying MC's perspective, along with an explicit emphasis that, after his death, his despaired self-blaming girlfriend, as now a succubus, will endlessly mate with numberless men, was quite NTR-ish
Bro that's reaching. She fucking killed him. You can't cuck the dead.
Also I didn't even know that was possible. You can't die in the game after all. That sounds sad tho ngl.

Either way, back to the game.
If this game has many less-intense NTR-ish endings (even if they are from FMC's perspective), that could make it more of NTR.
There's 2 endings out of I think 8 where the heroine winds up with the person she likes. (And in 1 of those endings he's an invalid)
Every other ending where she doesn't it's implied that her love is never fulfilled, and his romantic expectations are never resolved, with her just slutting around or dead.
The Male LI
ain't shit in this story I won't lie. The fact that he exists actively ruins the eroticism of the story, by adding the NTR angle in the first place, but it's clear in the best ending that he did have romantic attachments for the main heroine, so the feelings go both ways. He must be on the spectrum or something because he has a hard time realizing it and coming to terms with his own desires.
And off the top of my head,
1. Inuko is raped by an incubus which gives the stereotypical NTR banged kiss with a cocky grin. After fucking Inuko gets impregnated and cries. Cause she failed the exam and there's no way her feelings will get realized like that.
2. She gets raped by bandits, then overwhelms the bandits sexually. She becomes the bandits leaders, and continues to fuck the bandits forever.
3. She gets raped by an orc lord, but has too much sexual stamina. The orc lord take her back home, and rape her for as much as he wants in front of his orc army, and she mentions to herself that she wishes she could've been with her master instead and she just forgets about her original love as the orc lord fills her up.
4. She gets raped by a plant monster and forgets about her original goal, never fulfilling anything.
5. She gets raped by a slime, and falls in love with the pleasure. She falls head over heels in love with the slime and doesn't think about leaving it.
In ending 6 there's a chance she might fulfill her feelings, since it's left open ended, but it's a lesbian assault scene. It could go either way.
In ending 7, the master gets what he wants and he gives all his magic to Inuko and becomes an invalid. Inuko basically kills her master in this ending and she's depressed at what she did.
In ending 8. It's a happy end, where they both verify each other's feelings for each other (Missionary end)
Does this not sound like an NTR game? Am I being crazy here? And don't forget that's JUST the endings. I also mentioned the content that happens while playing the game.
