There's a lot of presumably's in this game considering that, despite this being made by a Frenchman (I think?), it's reminiscent of Russian QSP games where triggering scenes and advancing character arcs is a total crapshoot. And they tease you as well with smaller scenes such as having handy's under the table while you're cooking or what have you. Eventually they both walk around naked throughout the house, where you can just bang them in mostly every room, and (presumably) have them bang each other and be cool that there's a full blown polyamory situation going around. The gradual corruption and teasing is nicely portrayed as well, throughout the game, both your wife and babysitter start to get more and more lewdly dressed, rewarding your efforts after subjecting your tortured spirit to a QSP grind. So you do, and in the process you grind stats by cleaning the house, writing novels for money and rent, getting brownie points with your wife, and getting brownie points with your live in babysitter.Ī natural setting for smut, eventually you will get your wife back or (presumably) be kicked out of the house, and if you don't get kicked out of your house, you gradually start to snowball scenes as you thaw things out. You play in a scenario that's rather common in the QSP community, you're a father/husband that's about to lose his marriage but has one last chance to fix everything. Instead, it's more of the ramshackle nature that these games invite, despite the content they provide.Īnywho, onto to the game. It's not the grind per se, considering that luckily, this comes with a built in debug/cheat menu. Bias-wise, I rather like these kinds of games despite their difficulty. In this I'll try and be as honest as I can. Indeed, the Parthians were important, active, and powerful agents in these events, something often obscured or overlooked because of the inherent Roman focus and bias of the Graeco-Roman literary tradition and modern scholarship.In the alleyways of QSP houses and their esoteric, yet contained debauchery, I find a particular broken trigger off the wayside that offers more than it lets on. Further, this article challenges the misguided traditions that, first, describe the Parthians as feeble, passive, and duplicitous in their interactions with foreign powers and, second, that blame the incompetence or weakness of the Parthians' enemies to explain their actions and successes. The propensity of modern scholarship to villainize and criticize Crassus follows ancient propaganda and stems in part from a lack of understanding of the geopolitical realities that Parthia and Rome faced in the middle 50 s. Centuries of anti-Crassus propaganda have led most scholars to discount or overlook the critical agency of the Parthians in the conflict and the serious implications of Gabinius' actions in 56-55, while blaming Crassus for indefensible Roman aggression and greed. This article breaks from the dominate Rome-centric, anti-Crassus traditions concerning the investigation of the origins of this conflict. This article reevaluates the origins of the First Romano-Parthian War (56/5-50 BCE) to better understand the different perspectives, policies, and objectives of the various Parthian and Roman leaders in the early and middle 50 s that helped forge the great rivalry that emerged between Parthia and Rome.
