Playing a game lets call it 'Cinder Sella Phenome', its an otome about people being cursed with 'reverse fairytail' curses. so our main character started out a princess but is turned into a begger

(that is not what cinderella is about but okay)

and the logic in t he game (as well as the opinion ive heard everyone have when talking about it) is that the main character is a villainess, is cruel and evil and that this curse will turn her into a better person and they are happy to see her grow

ive barely started it, im like 2 hours in, on chapter 3

and im full of so much impotent rage

in WHAT way is she a fucking villain?? because shes rude to the father that she consistantly says hates her? the father that recently murdered a fuckton of witches (when we are told that many witches are good)? the father that refuses to hug her after her mom died and left for several months alone afterwards?

this girl whos mother was abusive and controlling to the point that she convinced her everyone wants to kill and hurt her? who never let her leave the castle after she was 4?

because she wouldnt call her stepmon 'mother' even though she only married in a year ago and the mc is 18?

because he wouldnt lie to her stepsister and pretend to have left the castle to hang out with her when actually her father ordered her to do it?

the only proof anyone has that shes evil is that she fired a maid for damaging one of her dolls. wow! so evil! that doll was literally a witch in disguise and the mc is so isolated that she talks to the dolls and refers to them as her only friends!

like 5 characters have told her she needs to smile more because 'good people smile because it makes other people happy'. like literally one of the things that makes her a bad person is that she doesnt smile. that character literally says 'i dont owe people a smile' and they just brushed it off and said she should do ti anyways

like damn sorry this traumatized emotionally abused isolated depressed grieving and terrified girl doesnt smile for you, fucker, i guess that mustve ruined your fuckin day

they keep saying she doesnt have enough faith in people but people are literally constantly plotting in open air about how she should lose her title and her new stepsister should be the corwn princess because shes-- what? prettier? because she smiles more??

the 'good' witch literally ripped her family and name and title from her and dropped her shoeless in the road and everyone in town was nasty to her and wouldnt let her buy food because she looked too poor. she got chased down and injured so badly she was unconcious for days. couldnt eat even though she had money, couldnt walk because the witch took her shoes. after shes injured the witch puts her up in her hotel for cursed people and says 'you can stay here but you have to work to earn your keep' and threatens to throw her in the street again (specifying 'without shoes') in order to make her work. then enchants a broom to force her to clean whenever there is dirt on the floor.. of a MEDEVIL TAVERN.

shes been there for MONTHS at this point but people still refuse to tell her why everyone hates her so much, even though other people in the curse house have shown themselves ready to beat her the fuck up for NO REASON. she says 'i have only left the castle twice in my entire life, i dont know why they hate me'

absolutely sickening <3

and then it turns out i cant even romance the 2 male leads that were nice to me (though they BOTH said i should smile more....) until i romance 2 of the shitty assholes.

wild writing

people keep trigger warning this game because you have the OPTION to romance your step brother (again, they only married into the family 1 year ago its not a big deal and also he wants me dead and is purposely refusing to help me get my family back so there is no familiar feelings there) but no one is trigger warning the insane abuse from the mother or the way the entire game is 'you deserve all the pain and wounds and mocking and punishment you get because you arent a warm enough person after your mother manipulated you'

tw 'you CAN date your stepbrother' no tw for 'physical mental financial emotional abuse from parental figures AND the LIs AND the 'good witch' of the story'

#long post #she is not making money working 12 hour days in this tavern and working her hands until they bleed #and has repeatedly said that she doesnt knwo how she will have time to try to break this curse when she workss constantly #they specifically chose the cleaning job for her because they thought a princess sweeping floors was funny #maam you are 100% earning more money for them with the waitressing and errands and cleaning than room and board costs #this is just a slave labour racket. they curse people and take all their resources and then force them to work for fear of death #it also doesnt make sense lorewise so im forced to assume they are lying #this girl specified 'when my father saw me as a homeless stranger he looked at me more kindly than he ever did in my life as his daughter'#like DAMN then shes not IMAGINING it #you cant fucking tell me she sucks because shes not nice enough to her dad when it says THAT #this game does not give the impression of having a twist where the witch turns out to be evil later on #so this seems fully earnest and heinous #luckily it was free though #i am forced to keep playing because i need to see the MC be happy at the ending #otherwise i wont have closure
