Yeah, that’s why I did add the edits.
That part seems right. Well, I’ll stay on the lookout.
No, that’s not it… That kind of MC may or may not know they’ll probably like a woman or a man, or more likely don’t care about the gender. For the sake of simplicity, let’s say they would be pansexual (though they doesn’t have to). They basically know there is one person they may like, and that person alone. That means they’ve never been attracted to anyone, never had sexual urges, never felt like they wanted a relationship for the sake of it. But they DO know they’d like romance and sex with that ONE specific partner once they find it.
I guess I’m basically talking about a kind of demisexuality, or well, at least something else on the greysexuality spectrum that would be close to demisexuality (if that’s too specific, then let’s settle on regular demisexuality). That’s why I don’t really think it would need that much work compared to a virgin MC. Basically, changing some dialogues here and there - the obvious preference/sexuality choice, and them saying something about how they finally found their other half to their partner. Maybe the ability, if the game is mature, to refuse getting physical, but adding another choice where the MC would say they are not sure yet that the RO is their one and only, so they’d like to wait - instead of just being ace and not wanting it, period.
I don’t really see it as a coming of age theme, for the reasons I’ve explained. At least, not more than having a virgin MC who’d have their first experience with the RO the player would select. Demisexual people tend to know they are demisexual (or other variations of greysexuality), and they can very well have preferences as to the genders they could be attracted to. I honestly think it would be easier to write than a genderfluid character, for example. And I’ve seen that. I mean, sure, genderfluid is about gender not sexuality, but the point stands.
Though, even if the exact thing is hard to find, I’d be grateful if you (or anyone else) know of games that allow you to select things like: “I never liked anyone before / never have been with anyone before, but I know I like men/women/any/other” that would already be something. I’m kind of tired of sexuality choice where the MC is oogling someone of a specific gender, or who reminisces of previous relationships, or talking about “that sexy guy/girl/person” they saw the other day.
I really prefer MCs without previous experiences and who’re not starved for it, but who are of age to be in a serious and physical relationship. Cause well, usually if you have virgin / innocent MCs, they are teens, and I’m looking for adults, but who don’t care at all about these things, and never had any romance before, but still can fall in love with the right person and desire physical intimacy with them.
