i think this game was the closest illusion ever got to a really good game. expect for the fact that i haven't played the games that came out before this one. i did play all that came after though. for people simply looking for a quick fap, of course, the newer stuff, except for the atrocious "ai girl", is a blessing due to nice graphics and big variety of animations. but this game offered the freedom of messing around with characters so much that you could actually end up having a complex relationship throughout the whole class that was always dynamic, and there was a lot of fun in that aspect. also the mod support was tremendous, i don't think the later illusion games were as heavily modded as this one, it was not just some costumes and animations, people were writing new scrips, adding new gameplay mechanics that were fun to play around with, or giving you more freedom in your actions, it's just that because of all the variety of mods it's very difficult to get tired of this game. it had only one problem - bad graphics and optimization, and one flaw - the relationship system wasn't complex enough and diverse enough. to my mind, a sequel to this game would have needed to do just one thing - create a true rp system with more complex dialogue and dynamic character traits - and it would have been an absolute blast. sadly though, we will never get this, because every year illusion demonstrates ever prominently that it will never learn game design basics (aka - how to make a game FUN (i'm looking at you, "ai girl")) and how to put more effort that needed for jap otakus to mass buy another release every year. they focus in all their recent games on story modes, and even those that are supposedly not a VN with hentai intersections, they also have "optional" stories. so okay, they decided to go full on VN with most of their games, but they have an ATROCIOUS writing. of course, hentai isn't commonly known for "good writing", but how do they even bother if it's outright boring??
