So, I gave this one another look after I last read it when it was on Episode 3. There are a couple things I'd like to say.
Firstly, at some point (don't remember when) there's some conversation about something that happened at Janet's pool, which I found confusing since I have no idea who the fuck that even is. That might be something for the dev to look at...
Also, there was something about Nora referencing "what happened last night". IIRC that would reference the night the MC and her go to the restaurant. But absolutely nothing happened that night, beyond food and wine. So once again: Huh??
Now, I like a harem game as much as the next guy who spends way too much time playing games that can be found here, but! I also think an important part of them is, well, choice. Maybe most importantly, the choice who to fuck and who to leave by the wayside. And after playing this I can report that there is no such thing here.
Seriously, I've tried to avoid Nora as best I could, which seemed to work well enough, until it didn't. I tried avoiding and discouraging Eva, because by god, I do not like her. But no. The best I could do was not fuck her right in front of her son. I told Chloe we're not having sex anymore, but then it happened again. And when presented with the choice to say "I love you" to Lily, the other option is to still say it, but not mean it, and then proceed to fuck her either way.
Now, I'm not saying I want to go through this game avoiding all the content, but I think it should be possible to have a say in who you want to pursue. It's the reason I like VNs and hate Kinetic Novels (the ones without choices). And despite lots of choices in this game, it kinda feels like there aren't any. Because half the choices are between sex and sex, and the other half is getting largely ignored (like what I described with Chloe).
Right. Sorry if I rambled a bit there. Don't get me wrong, I liked the game fine up till Episode 7. When it became clear that I wasn't gonna get out of messing with Eva, I kinda started fast-forwarding through the rest. The nice thing about VNs is that you can put yourself in the MC's shoes. But playing this game long enough, it seems like many of the choices I make alter the flow of the game at all, at least not for long.
