I think games like this, and say other games like Bright Past and The Tyrant, ruin the enjoyment of playing it with the convoluted, confusing, and ultra time consuming grind. I personally do not understand the point in making it so difficult/confusing content wise. You get to a point where you are just confused and if you don't play for a few days or week you come back forgetting where you where and what thing need needed to do at a CERTAIN time on a CERTAIN day after doing a CERTAIN thing correctly. I think that just ruins the game, it's not enjoyable. However, games like Echoes of Lust do it, but it is VERY clear on when, where, and what you need to do by having a well done guide/task within the game. So, if you are going to go the route of all this time/event gated content, then make a VERY easy to understand and precise task guide in your game. I do not want to wander around for a hour in the game to try and figure out why in the hell the things I am trying to do are not happening even though I am following a walkthrough guide. Have you seen the walkthrough guide for Bright Past? It's absolutely RIDICULOUS.I love how people complain about grind in this game while comparing it to original game where grind was like 10 tims worse because you had to grind persuasion/stealth/massage skills and keeping ladies mood was even harder.
I agree though that overall grind should be a little smaller
IT doesn't really. Dev seems to expand original plot rather than go with something else like Glamour changing it heavily.
I have the original of this game, and played it for hours and hours, I finally gave up. It just got too convoluted. So, I thought hey, they did a renpy remake, it should be easier. But, I am not having much of an easier time. Memories aren't unlocking, even though I have done them, content is not happening, etc. And, I am following TWO guides. I pretty much spent my entire night off playing it and it just made my head hurt (not joking, I had a splitting headache when I finally stopped) trying to figure out when and where and what time on what day the next thing will happen, and WHY its NOT happening when it should. It's just not enjoyable and I fail to see the point in making a "game" so convoluted. Even the save files people are sending me is not unlocking all the Memories, which at this point is all I want to see, so something is clearly off somewhere. I just want a "Unlock all Memories and Photo's" mod (HINT HINT) so I can view them and be done until, or if, the game is ever completed.
