Yes, the main character has the standard magical dick syndrome where beautiful women want to be impaled by his magic wand at all costs. Unrealistic? Definitely. To be expected? Definitely.
But putting that aside Chasing Sunsets has one of the best written stories and dialogs that I have seen from a visual novel in the adult category. It is well thought out and well executed. I would gladly follow this just for the story. Easily in the top 20 visual novels available currently in this genera in terms of story telling and writing.
In addition to the well written prose, Chasing Sunsets features beautifully constructed images and models. There are a few minor issues with skin appearing a bit too glossy or shiny, but overall the images are top notch. The sex scenes are also well executed, and I don't think the lack of sophisticated animations really matters, especially in the later parts of the game where sex scenes are more intertwined with the story.
Chasing Sunsets is, in my opinion, a legitimate piece of art. It is clear that Stone Fox Studios is attempting to go beyond the standard confines of the genera by offering up the best quality product that they can create on all fronts. Everything from sound effects, character creation, story, and dialog show an attempt to produce the best piece of entertainment possible for the chosen genera. And to that I say, "Bravo!"
Take for instance, the story of David. A lot of time and work went into his story. It wasn't technically necessary. They could have handled this character with prose only, but instead a lot of time and energy was spent creating David's story. It ads depth to the main story and really elevates the quality of the overall work. David exists to help tell the main character's story, but in the end these vignettes with David are interesting in their own right.
Chasing Sunsets is still in the early stages, but if Stone Fox Studio can keep up the current quality as they move forward with the story then Chasing Sunsets will turn out to be the sort of VN that others will try to copy for years to come.
