TL : DR
"Why is this not a simple VN?"
You are entitled to your opinion of course... even if it seems completly missplaced here since you could have gotten the warning from reading the OP, playing any RPG or simply by going through the Game Intro.

And btw the Dev is not the kind of Person that would report a review for deletion... even one like yours.
The rateing comes from honest review, as people have different tastes.
Yours doesn't seem to be RPGs which is fine... still makes me wonder why you'd even try.
Just so you know, I've played plenty; 200 or 300 probably; of RPG, classics and recent ones, I mean real ones, this is not.
I've also played plenty of RPGMaker games, even enjoyed dozens of them.

Working in a farm and peeling potatoes aren't RPG mechanism, just MMO ones.
I don't mind these mechanisms, unless it's required to advance the plot, more so if it has to be repeated over and over.

I wonder about that... I played enough RPGs to know that the big and sccessfull ones always used mechanics in order to break from the simple Battle driven VN nature... that's a sign of low cost/low budget projects.
I certainly never played 200 or even 300 as the ones I played required month of playing to actually reach the endgame.
And repeating tasks in order to gain someones trust is also a common occurence in RPGs... atleast the successfull ones.

But let's be more specific in the prospect of this game...
You are not an enstranged hero visiting the village, you have lived there as the unsuccessfull drunkard son of the village hunter.
Your reputation is the lowest and you need to proof to the people that you changed after your live got toppled over.

The more menial labor is certainly not common in most RPGs. It is however common in most simulation games (especially life simulation ones), which this game also is. First one that's actually made that repetitive menial labor fun for me though. I don't know what it is about this game that makes me enjoy going through that grind. Usually I get bored of that stuff quickly, but I've not even cheated let alone given up from grind.

They are required to advance the plot though. Many stories are locked behind affection level before you can advance.

I just wish gathering mats isn't so save scummy a lot of the time. Mining iron ores is one of the most painful experience for me, even with level 5+ Strength.

Ok, since i'm locked out of reviewing this, here's what I think about the game.

Too many custom assets, fog and whatnot + probably too much engine customization making the game extremely sluggish.
Game mechanism aren't any good, you start with debts you have to repay.
Scenes are locked behind affection and corruption and from what I gather, you have to work (fields, kitchen and the likes) to unlock them.
Not only the working is terribly implemented but you have to repeat it over and over again.

This isn't worth wasting my time, probably not yours either if what I wrote makes sense for you.

My review probably hurt the dev's feeling, so he reported it and it was removed, that's certainly how this game get such high ratings...
If you are here not to waste your time why are you wasting, complaining about the game on a thread that is full of fans of this game?
The game mechanics aren’t good?
For me they work more than fine, you have dozen of possibilities on how to handle the beginning, all the mechanics are fair and square for an old classic rpg, from the grinding to the combat.
I can mention a ton of games that literally starts with debts to pay or in time game mechanics, what is this so different from the others?
And the game isn’t even sluggish, for me now it works fine.
And of course you have to work to gain the girls and new options, look at any other rpg, like even Peasant quest, or not porn games, stardew valley or Harvest moon they make you go grinding for days to get an upgrade, but that grinding is enganging for people that like that type of gameplay.
This is a real rpg, it is has some grinding and repetitive elements but even the most acclaimed and loved rpgs have always an element like that.

As Eva said the dev isn’t really present here, it comes once in a blue moon.
If Your review got taken down, it’s because it went against the rules.
Peace out

1. First you need to chat with the queen on the street (talk to the general before that), and then inside the mayor's mansion, crack the back door at the kitchen.
2. With a mind, first you need to get Nira to suck you off for the second portion of soup.

I can't enter the building alone, where is the kitchen door?
How do I get a second portion of soup? NYRA has a negative marker, how to convince it to yourself?

Do it RPG Style... click on everything that looks remotely like something usable... also make sure you actually play the latest Version of the game so the content and maps are updated.
If you killed Dassan in front of her she won't help you... but all of this is explained in Detail in the Walkthrough...

I wrote down what needs to be done. See how to do this either in the quest log, or download the walkthrough for game. Although sometimes it is enough to read the dialogues in the game carefully)

This button was given to me by your help ... I wouldn't ask how, according to the knowledge, what to do ...

It is impossible to enter the baron's building without knocking on the door ... and I don't remember about the soup.

MOST IMPORTANT I DON'T HAVE HOW TO READ EVERY DIALOGUE WITHOUT KNOWING THE LANGUAGE AND MINE IS NOT.

Well if you haven't even found the secret passage into the home of the mayor yet the queen shouldn't have appeared in the village either (you need to advance Frishas Quest enough to have him promoted to Baron and that's only possible after triggering certain events in his house).
And sorry to tell you, but if you can't understand the language of the game I don't even see you enjoy it, as the story is one of the major factors why this game is so good.

Man, without a common knowledge of english you can’t enjoy the game in the slightest, not only for the story but for everything else, directions, dialogues, indications et cetera.
Playing a game like this, is smashing its head against a wall, repeatedly, just take a CG rip if you are the sex scenes or search a patch with your language.
But I see it really hard to continue like this

When I was a young person, and my games were on english, with local dialects of english like "ant'cha".I didn't have a common knowledge of english.But I had a dictionary to translate some words. Today you can translate things on google, or even specialized pages where translates english to any language. The difficulty that people have today is not about language barriers, is about being lazy.

Personally I learned english by watching Series and movies with english subtitles on the net, useing a dictionary everytime I found a word I didn't know (which started with every other sentence and ended with a word in every other episode)

Literally me with videogames I learned english like this.
Paper Mario on 64, Ocarina of Time, basically n64 games.
I kept crashing the moon in Majora’s Mask like 4 times, before I decided to take the goddamn dictionary or read the lines.

If you have access to the mayor's mansion only through the front door, forget about the queen for now, let her live as she wants without GG)))
Download the walkthrough, and go through Frisha's path to the end first. It is unlikely that anyone will explain to you how and where to press which button.

Imagine then, with local dialect. Without knowing common english. For example:
"Thou the time hath come" or "Tis not of import. Thy art mortals"
"Canst sense it" means: "Can you not sense it" (The fuck?)

Haha... even knowing english makes reading older texts really hard.
Ever tried Shakespear in it's original form? now that gives you an headache.
But I think the same applies to any language that evolved from centuries ago... atleast I am certain the same applies to french and german.
