... people seem to get worse and worse after each update. ...
Speaking only for myself, I just don't have faith that this game will ever be finished as the scope just keeps getting bigger while we still don't have even 1 complete route for any character. I just want to see a completed story in the next five years but it seems unlikely.
Not even counting the useless quest journal, the finicky time system that requires cheats to get real progress, the slow movement that makes teleporting feel so much better, the poorly written phone guide that needs a notepad to keep track of the many interconnected steps to unlock scenes, the lack of a gallery that replays the scenes with dialog/story context, and the long grind for money so that you can buy items that are needed to repeat scenes to grind for other scenes.
The animations are great and the story is decent, the game is just bogged down by so many problems and each update that goes by reduces my confidence that they will ever be addressed.
