Proof of Life #334: Yet more info on the NTR2 Ending (Patreon)

Hey guys, gals, and everyone in between! How are you doing this fine morning/afternoon/evening? Would you care for some more NTR Ending news to brighten your day? Because I’ve got some for you~

We’re nearing the end of Segment 1 of the NTR2 Ending, with just one scene left to go. As I mentioned in a previous PoL, this final scene wasn’t originally in the script, but I felt it would be a nice way to wrap up the first part, among other things.

To be honest, since this is a "town bicycle" ending, the antagonists have had little to no action so far, and the scenes have heavily focused on the main questline's heroines with different partners. Still, I wanted the antagonists to get some screen time. I also wanted Haylen and Lily, who I initially only planned to include in the freeroam portion, to take part in at least one scene.

Originally, I intended to do three smaller scenes in different locations (one with Rose & Cyanna, one with Lily, and one with Haylen) so I could easily “cut” them if a player hadn't completed Lily or Haylen's content. However, I decided against that. Instead, it felt better to create two versions of a single scene: one featuring only Rose and Cyanna (+ their respective antagonists), and another featuring all four women at once, all in the same place.

This change means two things:

1) Prerequisites: Players will need to finish both Haylen and Lily’s questlines to unlock the 4-woman version. Creating four separate variations based on whether a player completed only Lily's, only Haylen's, both, or neither would simply take too long. That’s why it's either four women or only two.

2) Pacing: The scene itself will be on the shorter side. Even with this streamlined approach, balancing versions with either four or eight total participants (counting the antagonists) still requires a ton of work.

As for the tone of the ending itself, it’s not shaping up to be quite as heartbreaking or shocking as your typical NTR route, but I certainly wouldn't call it a happy ending either. It sits somewhere in the middle. Honestly, I’m not entirely sure how to classify it yet.

Anyway, I’ve rambled enough for today, so it’s time to wrap up this PoL. I’ll see you all again next Monday, as always~

Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful week!
