This is a weird one to rate. I appreciate very much dev's diligence in keeping us updated on all phases of development, and the fact that releases have been consistent. Those factors are important, IMO. In fact, the reason I rate it a 4 instead of 3.
Because, I have to say, the LI dynamics are screwy. Graphically, romantically, lewdly, whatever.
Yes, the graphics are old-school -- and I accepted this to start. I was excited by the D&D premise, the whole immersion vibe. What a compelling storyline! Each character acted within their own distinctive parameters, and I was intrigued to see where the story would lead me.
But as it went... it dragged, I have to say. The distinctive characters became stock characters -- the sharp-tongued warrior girl who was sour on everything; the shy mind-maiden who intuited; the GF who became --what??
That was another thing -- the GF. Okay, she accepted MC as manwhore with all her friends, even her own sister -- after all it is a porn VP -- but then she gets all jealous when it's about meeting up witth the goddess who's been helping them the whole way through?
And that scene really threw me to question so much -- the Goddess asks the MC to meet her -- and the MC decides, with no help from ME that's for sure, and no warning -- that oh he's inviting his wife-to-be. WTF??!
Kinda said "Fuck This"after that.
Dev needs to up his game on making MC's LI a gotta-have LI. Not happening as of now.
And too much banter! Jeez. A lot of "Can we get back to the main thing?" -and - "I can't talk about that right now.."
A lot of the dialogue seems like an 80's sit-com. Zing! Oh, we might die, but -zing!
