WARNING:
STUPID, POINTLESS DEGENERATE WHINE-POST INCOMING:
This is one I'll keep an eye on. I'll play non-incest games and, if the story and sex and/or violence are good, I'll enjoy it. I'll play incest games, as that's my biggest fetish, and even if the story and sex scenes aren't that great, if the fetish is catered to decently I'll still have a gay old time. But 'step' is that crevice between the two that I just can't fit into. It's the tofu turkey, vegan cheesecake, Sugar-Free Coke, guilt-free substitute "I Can't Believe It's Not Incest" incest, and I have an unnecessary, aggressively negative reaction everytime I see the word 'step' used in this context.
Darper graciously made a mod that fixes it for whiney, entitled li'l bitches such as myself, but unfortunately this is also a points based game, and one that mentions at the beginning, you won't see scenes if you just focus on raising your score. So if I want to see what the game has to offer, I'll need a walkthrough (or dedicate an amount of time testing branches that I'm not willing to divert away from other perverse ventures).
RIC0H, always dependable, has kindly made that walkthrough, but had to remove the incest patch early on because updates were fucking it up, so as to maintain the integrity of the walkthrough itself. So I can either play through the game as a step, not paying attention to any of the text, only learning the routes from RIC0H's walkthrough, THEN switch it out and play through properly with Darper's, hoping that his mod doesn't break with further updates.
Or I can simply wait for the game to be finished and hope that at some point afterwards, it's modded to support both green text goodness to guide the way, and removes any mention of step. And that is what I'll do.
This small mountain of stupid does not deserve to be a review, especially since I haven't played through all the content currently available, so I'll just leave it here as a comment to annoy random passersby, and also add that while the environments are a bit too heavy on grain and the music is VERY present, almost overbearingly so, the girls are cute, well designed, the writing appears to get the job done and the fact that there is music at all is nice. I genuinely wish the dev luck, and to everyone that possesses the ability to enjoy the game as is, I hope it continues to do well, and that you have a great time with it.
