Well, it helps that they aren't pandering to an specific crowd. Plus, the bar is set lower than the Grand Canyon, in this case.
ValiDate - an upcoming (and unsurprisingly racist) visual novel made by SJW's, for SJW's. Currently MIA.

Calling it now, white boy will become the fan favorite, and this will piss the devs off enough that they'll go on a 4000-tweet-long tirade about all the RAYCISS people giving them their money that finally ends in something out of the African translation of Mein Kampf.

Based on this fanart he looks like the kind of character Twitterites would simp over. They might claim to be so WOKE and progressive but they still thirst over edgy white guys.
The devs really fucked themselves over by inadvertently hyping up the fucking white male's character reveal, maybe they'll claim it was a social experiment to prove people really are racist because they like him the most.

That's the bad end to the intro section.

I can't tell if they're going to go the "woke white ally, probably some flavour of trans" route with this guy, or the "ignorant bully" route. I'm suspecting the former, but hoping for the latter. I mean, Malik or whatever his name was turned out to be the latter, and he's been the most likeable character so far.
Hoping that whiteboy ends up a favourite, and the dev team get so pissed off with it that they make him as problematic as they can.

Yeah, but it's not a real route, just a "Go back and pick one of the girls this time dumbass, you fucked up." ending that gets Hisao killed.

How 'bout, NO.
Seems they got 1,200 backers...
More unfunny meme shit.

I like how they made every character except the white guy show their face in at least some way. REAL subtle, there.

>white guy doesn't show his face on the poster, when everyone else does
>instantly making him more visually distinct, mysterious (and therefore desirable) to a visual novel-playing demographic
They can't even dunk on him correctly, lmao
If they didn't have such a hangup about whitey then he'd just be one more face in the crowd. But the way they're singling him out in the marketing makes him look like the most important character in the game. Someone used to typical anime/vn tropes might even look at that poster and think the white guy is the self-insert protagonist because he's literally in the top spot.
Can't wait to see them seethe when he becomes the most popular character in the game and gets a bunch of sexy fanart. He's like a reverse Abby from TLOU2, where she was worshiped in game and by the creators but hated by the fans.

Would you look at that, the characters all look like they belong in the same game. IT'S A MIRACLE WHAT CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY DRAWING THEM ALL IN THE SAME ARTSTYLE.

Wow at least the cast is in a consistent artstyle. Other than the e-thot and (mysterious "back facing audience pose" ooooo )wytdevil, the cast still looks African black instead of their supposedly"mixed" heritage.
devs, just make them African-American, it's a wasted effort if the only ethnicity people can recognize is African.

All the genderspecials still look completely insufferable, but for the first time Ashli looks like a human being, and I'm here for the inevitable parodies where she's just a raging bitch to all the other characters.
Parodies, because we know the writers would never let their uwu self-inserts face any criticism that they can't immediately dismiss as bigotry. Also, they seem to think that Ashli calling out all the other characters for being cunts and ending up with none of them is a bad ending, rather than beneficial.
(Malik doesn't care. He's happy doing his thing. The white guy too, though I wouldn't be surprised if they made him a date-rapist or something out of spite/racism.)

The demo was recently updated to add another route, and it's very exciting - finally we get to play as shitlord Malik, hero of the people, as he pursues whiny trans man Arihi! What's with the recurring pattern of this team continuing to promote and focus on the boring cis dudes who are supposed to be the villains? Anyway, here's the summary (tl;dr it's just Arihi's route again but more boring and with even more gender shit somehow).
Not two lines in and there's already a fried chicken reference.
Apparently Malik visited the BVS to buy diapers because lol deadbeat dad. He's convinced his ex "just wanted money to get her nails done" because the kid is nearly 3 and should be potty trained by now. We get the info that his grandmother is dead, he has a total of two children, and his friends are shitty and rely on him to save them too much. Jesus this man is such a fucking stereotype, almost every text box works in rapping or baby mamas somehow.
"attractive". We have a lot of really forced misgendering as Malik thinks of Arihi as a they before correcting to "his?", then continues to use they. What a monster, not being able to instantly determine the gender of this true and honest man at a glance. Sudden appearance of the native tranny to remind him of an important life lesson, that there is no such thing as looking masculine or feminine (???) and assuming someone's gender is very bad. I guess this means all the routes are canon simultaneously?
Arihi is apparently so damn hot that Malik is questioning his sexuality within two minutes of speaking to him. Arihi refuses a fist bump because of hygiene concerns (haha topical) and Malik just keeps internally debating about whether this person identifies as a dude or not. He tries to hand over a mixtape but Arihi is really fucking rude and basically calls him ghetto trash, which triggers Malik because his dad was disappointed in him dropping out of education to pursue music instead of becoming a doctor. He fights back by flirting with this abhorrent individual but gets called a "closet case", causing him to lament about how hard it is to explore his fluid sexuality. End scene.
Baby mama ends up getting Malik's money because bitch be crazy. Arihi shows up at Bop-eye's - there's been a running joke of Malik calling him an e-boy which is pretty funny. Arihi continues to be an absolute raging cunt and we get a groundbreaking lore revelation - Malik DOES NOT LIKE BOP-EYE'S FRIED CHICKEN. My god. Malik sexually harasses Arihi with a joke involving how many Masters (degrees) are under his belt and laughs about how he's the manager so he can't be reported. He then decides to ease up because he correctly assumes he's dealing with a big ol autist with no friends, gets the dude his chicken. At this point you can choose to have him go seethe in confused sexuality in his office, but you'll still get rerouted back out to deliver the chicken personally anyway.
I'm skipping now because this route is so fucking long and boring, it's just Arihi's route again but padded out with shit about rapping and whether or not this is gay. Malik steals a bit of meat that fell on Arihi's leg (?? or is that a double entendre) and they actually start to get along a bit, Arihi agrees to listen to the mix tape and finally gives his name, Malik goes back to his job and reveals he wrote his number on the tape, route ends. There were only 2 choices in this whole thing.
I went back to get the bad ends only to find that there's only one. If you choose to have Malik flip out at Arihi it doesn't actually do anything, he just rants internally about this "jackass of indeterminate gender" (lol). Going to the office after that will cause Malik to finally snap to his senses and stop caring about this dude who has done nothing but insult and belittle him constantly, and go get some therapy. Hooray.
10/10 perfect quote, this game in a goddamn nutshell.

I know that this has been talked to death, but for anyone who's been to CVS knows that those images were ran through an filter.
And dude never heard of condoms, apparently. They sell those at CVS.
