Remove But Thou Must - But Thou Must is not applicable. The trope is when a game offers you the illusion of choice. There is no illusion here (e.g. dialogue choices that all lead to the same place), the story just progresses. Also made additions.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: There are many things you can do to [[TitleDrop be a dick]] to other characters in this game:
** If you bought the spicy option from Quinn's "restaurant" in Episode 1, Quinn will taunt you that Camila was close to going all the way with you. You can tell her that Camila ''did'' actually do that to get under her skin, and she'll threaten to punish Camila in Episode 3 for giving you more than what you paid for.
** You can steal Jill's money when you're raiding the Alpha Nu Omega mansion with Derek in Episode 2.
** During your first visit to the Pink Rose, you can put a finger in Lily's butt, which results in her slapping and hating you. At least it counts for the slapping task.
** When you find Ron peeping in on Arieth sleeping with someone else in Episode 4, you can kick Ron through the door, which results in Arieth and the guy she was with chasing Ron out and him running away screaming for his life.
** One of the biggest examples of this is sharing your sex video with Jade to the [=DIKs=] to fulfill the task of sleeping with a teacher and a feminist, ignoring her warning that you absolutely do not share it with anyone else since she's cheating on Stephen by sleeping with you.
** In Episode 7, you can outright say to Lily that you like her bikini better than Josy's while the latter is standing right there.
** At the HOT party with the alphas in Episode 7, you can make every alpha leave (or you'll be forced to do so if you have permanent DIK affinity.) While most of the things you do to accomplish this aren't outright cruel, the exception comes when you push Dawe into the pool while he's off brooding by himself.
** During Episode 7's tennis match against Jill and Tybalt, you can aim your tennis balls at Tybalt. Hit him all three times, and he'll lose his prosthetic teeth, resulting in his speech becoming slurred, which carries over into his presentation.
** You may have the option of punching Patrick in Episode 10 when you walk in on [[spoiler:him grabbing Maya by the wrist.]]
** If you successfully tried for something more with Josy and Maya in Episode 4 but want to pursue a relationship with Jill, Sage, or Isabella instead in Episode 8, you'll have to break up with Josy and Maya at the end of Episode 9. You spend all of Episode 9 avoiding them, as you won't have the option to take a picture with them or vote for them for the costume contest, and you don't get to talk to them while they’re investigating the "murder mystery" in Rusty's room. Once you finally break up with them, Maya is understandably sad, but Josy takes the news even worse. By Episode 10, while Maya is still willing to patch things up with you after some time, Josy will coldly brush you off, still upset at your decision and wanting nothing to do with you, and both of the girls won't comment on your Clucks.
** Breaking up with Jill to commit to either Josy and Maya or Sage after going on a dinner date with her in Episode 8 is cruel enough, as she takes the breakup far harsher than if you hadn't done so. But it gets even ''worse'' if you decide to commit to Isabella, her best friend.

* VideoGameCrueltyPunishment: Some of your more dickish actions will result in you losing relationship points with the main girls, Derek, the [=DIKs=], or other notable consequences:

Needless to say, she's not happy with your actions, as you'll lose a whopping ''five'' relationship points with her, and if you’re on her route, she won't come stay with you in the DIK mansion for the night. She also won't come stay with you if you broke up with Josy and Maya.
** Lily will charge you extra for her lewd scene in Episode 5 if you put a finger in her butt in Episode 3, with no way to reduce the price.
** If you shared your sextape with Jade to the [=DIKs=] in Episode 4, [[spoiler: her husband, Stephen, will reveal at the end of Episode 6 that someone leaked it to him. He uses that video in Episode 10 to blackmail her into letting him keep almost all of his assets when he files to divorce her.]]
** If you make Patrick too suspicious of you during the Thanksgiving dinner with the Bailey family in Episode 10, ''especially'' by punching him, [[spoiler:he'll take back the keys to his private office from Derek, preventing you from stealing the loan contract.]]

* {{Stripperiffic}}: All over the place, as expected. Besides the strippers' costumes ([[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin unsurprisingly]]), the most notable example is the [=HOTs=]' outfit, which combines a tiny spaghetti-strapped crop top and a very short skirt. Notably, it is lampshaded during the first [=HOTs=] party after the new sisters have been accepted into HOT: Josy says that wearing it makes her feel she's wearing nothing and Camila says that she has to wear it at night to get used to it; hilariously, fellow new sister and professional stripper Lily retorts that she would be fired for being overdressed if she wore something like this to work. It also shows up during the Dungeons and Gremlins game (though the visuals for that, admittedly, are taking place in the MC's imagination) and [[SexyWhateverOutfit the Halloween party]] in "Vixens".
* ThanksForTheMammary: After playing tennis during their date in "When Worlds Collide", the MC and Jill learn that the women's bathroom is closed for repairs, which means the men's bathroom has been temporarily divided into two parts. If the MC has CHICK affinity, she can agree to shower at the same time as him, with the two in adjacent stalls (notably, choosing to shower at the same time improves your relationship with her, while choosing to shower alone reduces it). While comparing the water in their showers, Jill reaches into the MC's shower, saying that hers is better. If he chooses to reach into her shower in response, he does this just as she is walking out of the shower, leading to him getting a good handful. Jill is mortified, but not enraged, given that it was both an obvious accident ''and'' that Jill is developing a major crush on him.

** Although the MC hopes for the shenanigans to end after Hell Week, the [=DIKs=] continue to engage in quite a bit of these, especially given that [[spoiler:their house is in disarray following the tri-alphas trashing the place]]; most notably, this includes "vodka fanny bullets", Derek's [[SarcasmMode genius]] idea of placing tampons in vodka and [[AssShove inserting it rectally for maximum (alleged) alcohol dispersal]].

Family will help you grow. Family doesn't give up on you in times of need. Family are the ones who love you for you...whoever that may be. Even if you lose your family...or if your family loses you. Don't stop. Find new ones to love and somewhere else to call home.''

** The game opens with the MC being insulted by Steve, who calls him a "fuckface". The MC responds to him by saying, "My name isn't fuckface, it's...", after which the player can enter their name. If the player enters the name "fuckface", however, the MC embarrassedly notes that that is in fact his name.

** In a route-specific example, if the MC is dating Jill and chooses to commit to someone else in Episode 8, he does not tell her and end their relationship until some time before the Halloween party (as seen in the flashback in Episode 9). While this isn't as much of a problem if you commit to the throuple or Sage (apart from the heartbreak inherent to a breakup, obviously), it leads to significant problems if you commit to Isabella: this route has Jill find out about their relationship in the worst way, where she visits Bella's house only to see the two of them having sex on the dining table.
