Overview:
In Daughter of Essence, you play as Mercy a young woman who just wants to be free. Free from obligation, free from the oppressive watchfulness of her family, and free from the harsh laws of the empire. As one of the only living daughters of essence, however, freedom is not so simple. The Oldlight empire and the Church both want her captured, and countless other factions want her strange gifts for their own gain.
To be truly free, you must be willing to sacrifice.

saw some other pics on another site aswell. I think it has more potential than some of the other recent newcomer. But the art seems still kinda inconsistent, considering the main character. Its like its a complete different person sometimes. Maybe new and old art mixed. i dont know... ( ' - ')

From the Patreon - commissioned art, multiple artists...hopefully more consistency of character art in the future if things work out...

Our belief is that a game can be good and titillating--that quality gameplay and eroticism aren't mutually-exclusive, and that the game itself should not merely be a vehicle for quick, meaningless flings for the player to mash through.

On an immediate impression, gameplay and story is interesting. Story follows along a character who stands wholly apart, though seems to vary from time to time, not sure exactly why, in any case this is far more interesting and indepth. The downside I'll immediately put forward is that its difficult, you have a character faced with low level encounters which are exceedingly difficult off the bat. And you have limited resources and money to start.

A challenge yes, but kind of annoying at they very start of the game. Also the minigames are not endearing in any way shape or form, they're ungodly fucking frustrating, especially for the fishing part. That took a good 30 minutes to get through and I kid you not, I wanted to bash my computer screen to pieces after the first five. If the developer wanted to make a challenge, then you have exceeded all expectations. If they wanted to piss people off, then they've got that in spades.

For future reference, for the love of all things, think about how complex and how difficult you want to make this for people who play this game, since there is no tutorial on the fishing minigame it just throws you at it with random levels of difficulty.
That's the same thing with combat, people who initially start the game are going to have a really bad time playing when they don't have fast reactions or have computers which don't register keystrokes immediately. That'll suck a lot worse for them.

I might have encountered some form of bug but this game consumes huge amount of resources in my computer particularly CPU & GPU. It is equivalent to playing DA:Inquisition at medium settings which I think is a bit much for RPGM game.
