I'm not one to complain, but I honestly feel just a little bit let down by this update. Many parts of the game were unnecessarily animated in my opinion. These animations are causing the length between updates to be significantly longer than they could have been as opposed to how much shorter it would have been if the animations were only used when necessary. Basically, animating everything will of course make this game take longer to update. If the updates have this much space between them, with so little content(plot-wise), then I'm not sure how many of us will stick around in the long run. I'm all for being patient when it comes to updates, but the number of unnecessary animations made this game longer to get through as well as a bit tedious to play.
Game mechanics aside, Gina hasn't broken up with Scott yet. MC is still being forced to sleep around. Now I'm not saying that there has to be clean, vanilla romance in this story, but at least clarify that part. It's almost as if the MC forgot that Gina's in a relationship. It's almost as if Gina herself forgot that she's in a relationship. So what now? Is she cheating on her partner? I'm just wondering if there will ever be some clarity in that area. Is she or is she not with him? Is she single, in a relationship, or on a break? Also, will continuing the MC's relationships with other characters be mandatory to continue her story?
I'll be honest and say that while I have been patient when it came to the update, I have lost a significant amount of interest in this game(can't exactly call it a VN), and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Replaying it... a lot of things are different. Some for better and some for worse. The spark I had my first time playing this is not there anymore. The dialogue, probably due to the translation, sounded much too cliché and/or cheesy in my opinion. The conversations between MC and Gina showed that there was some effort put there, but it was a bit too cliche/cheesy in the end. This along with the game mechanics are my only problems with this game... along with the bugs that frequently come along with the animations lol.
This game overall is ok. It's better than a lot of other sandbox-styled adult games on this site, but that's not really a high bar to reach when you can only count the good ones on one hand. I'm no longer a patreon supporter, but I still have some hope for this game. Good luck with future updates!
