IF Seal: Is it OK to make a romanceable character a Sexy Boy?
hello seal!!!! hope you are doing good! i have a problem ive deemed a not-problem in my head but i still cant seem to get past it so i was hoping youd help; in my IF there is a character who is death. due to some magical shenanigans the concept of desth has been turned mostly human. now i am an ardent enjoyer of Sexcy Boys. so for me i made it so that death (not particularly interested yet making an identity because it is something humans have) stole the identity of a man. BUT. i dont want the woman enjoyers to feel left out!!!!! they should be able to enjoy their death as a sexcy woman as well ! which is a bit complicated in this story of mine because i made it so there's no gender changeable characters. like. it is a particular choice I made going into writing this. maybe death as a character is special enough to warrent such a choice?? well, anyway, i thought id take in a second opinion so this would stop eating my brain
Dear Sexy-Boy-Enjoying Friend,
This has been in my inbox for a long while and I apologise for the delay. Let's get to it!
It is my fervent belief that if you are excited about a Sexy Boy character, it is fine for them to be a Sexy Boy. So please, go with my blessing as you wish.
The only factor that might complicate such things is: do you feel this is the most exciting romanceable character in your game? Or the only one? Are there other Sexy Girl Characters or Sexy Nonbinary Characters who are extremely thrilling and attractive, along with this deliciously deathlike character?
If not, I would suggest either making this character selectable, especially if they are one of the more major figures in the story, or bringing up the other romanceable characters to their level of Hot.
(By the way, if the sexy death boy is the only romanceable character that is OK! - it is a less popular setup in general for these types of games, but I would honestly rather see that than a sexy boy romanceable character who happens to be the hottest and most important compared to romanceable characters of other genders.)
Thank you very much indeed for your question, and may we all find the sexy or nonsexy connections in games that we wish for.
