That has to be tagged under NTR.
Yes, it's not really correct, but F95 only has two tags. Cheating and NTR. Cheating is, simply put, for all the not negative stuff (jealousy doesn't exist, and the character is not a potential sexual partner for you), whereas NTR focuses on the negative emotions. BSS, from your description, falls under what on F95 is tagged NTR.
Not tagging it means all the people that don't like that negative experience won't be warned away, which will lead to them complaining about NTR all the time forever and ever until you tag it NTR.
Good luck with your game!
If you put yourself in the shoes of the cuckolded man's perspective, then it is indeed very negative.
But the MC is the one who cuckolded someone else, and that's only good.
Maybe my wording caused you to misunderstand?
Just sandbox in general. I don't mind free roam (like in BaDiK) but having to search a whole map to find a new scene and having to grind stats or watching the same scene multiple times just to advance the story is not for me. (As an example for the latter, look at Power Vacuum for example).
Then you don't have to worry.
This game's sandbox is just a way for me to freely add plot and characters. In addition to that, you can enjoy the daily interaction with your character.
There won't be any repetitive events, no money or various stats, just one stat to record how many events the character has reached.
Probably like Max'life, this game has a huge number of events and a built-in guide to tell you which location to go to next.
When I was working on version 0.05, I was thinking entirely from the MC's point of view about what he would think and what actions he would take.
But obviously I made the mistake that I did not have the story serve the player.
The MC is the character that the player plays and we will feel differently from him. I should create what the player wants, not what only the MC would do.
So I adjusted my thinking for the rest of the story, thinking more about how to make the player happy, or at least make me feel happy when I am a player.
With that in mind I wrote version 0.1 and I can't speak for everyone, but for me at least, the new storyline is just too damn enjoyable.
I would still maintain the characterisation of the MC, his personality and experience dictate that he doesn't act like a brat at any point.
But there are ways I can make him have to care about something, and there are ways I can get things done by portraying other characters more.

A very unusual and interesting story. I like it.
Considering that the game seriously relies on the plot and dialogue, I would advise the author to improve the translation. It was pretty hard to read.
Otherwise, the impressions are very positive. A pretty unique game in terms of lore and plot.
The main thing is not trying to please anyone and make the game you want.

Thank you, I have been worried that my story would not be to the taste of different regions. Your affirmation of my story is very encouraging to me.

He is an ordinary nerd with almost no social skills, living with one goal - to get his wife back (at least from my point of view)
Personally, I don't see him as some kind of alpha-chad, and honestly, I wouldn't want a harem here as it devalues his main goal.
I regret that my lack of ability caused my characterisation to fail to get to the heart of the character.
What I was trying to convey was that the MC, as a member of a god-like civilisation, in his eyes, those people are as small as dust to him and he doesn't care about them at all.
As for socialising, it has nothing to do with social skills, why would he need to socialise? Does he need to deliberately say things to make people happy to gain their approval?
Most of all, the MC has been a man of terrible indifference since the beginning. And some experiences during the 200 years have made him even more extreme.
You can think back to the scene where he and Aisha meet again and he has no emotion or desire to have her back.
I wasn't going to explain all this because the first conversation with Aisha when MC was young, Aisha made it clear that MC was a very cold person.
I hope you can understand that not wanting to socialise and not being good at socialising are not the same thing.
So that's basically why he wouldn't care about others trying to push him around is what i'm gathering. As in he just doesn't see the point of even caring to retaliate against those he views as beneath him?

I'm sorry that my comment sounded like criticism because it's not)
I like the character.
In my understanding, his whole life is study and working on how to get his wife back. This is the purpose of life.
Everything else for him is unimportant or secondary. He doesn't care about anyone's attitude towards him.
Therefore, I don’t see him as some kind of "alpha-chad" (and I don’t want him to be like that), and it seems to me that the harem is not very suitable here, as it conflicts with his character and the purpose of his life.
It's because I didn't explain the situation clearly. This led players to wrongly assume that the MC did not resist when he had the conditions and ability to resist.
Even Kirito didn't go smoothly all the way.
But my original idea of "retaliate" was too late, the MC does not care, but as a player will care.
So I arranged a few very good "retaliate" in the 0.1 version. I believe it is enough to make people satisfied.

Whatever you want to do with your story, do it. Listening to criticism is important too, but don't let is sway you off whatever path you want the story to be on. Good luck with your project.

Sounds like the game isn't going to have romance with the LIs, so I don't think I'm interested.
