Ep1 v2
Well, there's not that much to say, honestly, this game has some solid strengths, and some weaknesses.
Starting with the strong, by far, the animation quality, this is some really good stuff right here, not a dick simply clipping into a female model, you see the physics at work, it truly sets it apart from many other games in this aspect, this is the animation quality I wish to see, great work.
What does feel slightly weird sometimes are the camera changes, specially those that don't loop back and take you to a set beginning, those I don't really fancy much, but I'm willing to ignore in exchange of the quality.
A little addition at the animations is that it'd be nice to have more sounds with them, the flavour text is good enough, but some sounds to complete the atmosphere I believe would be very welcome.
Continuing on, grammar-wise it's been improving, especially while comparing the newest releases with the first ones. It's still rough around some edges, but it's been getting there at a good pace, props on it.
Now, going into the story, I think there's been far too many time-skips, I do get behind the why, to avoid story stagnation, but I still believe that there were far too many back to back time-skips in comparison with what was actually experienced by us. Yes, the MC got to meet and live with his family, but it was a lot of behind the scenes stuff, we as players barely had any direct interaction with them as to form any sort of attachment to the other residents, and then before we knew it, it was already another skip of 6 months of which we pretty much know nothing aside being turned into Captain America, we don't even know nothing about a "main girl" we were supposed to learn about and interact with at the place, we just get some random points depending on our stats and that's it, and that doesn't fit well with me.
It doesn't really rub me the right way either how easily all this stuff that is thrown at the MC is accepted by him, it's just way too ideal and perfect of a response for someone with the lack of spine he had at the beginning, nothing bad with lacking some courage though, don't get me wrong, it feels far out of character for him at that point accepting as easily and without hesitation as he did.
The other thing I have mixed feelings about is the amount of meme content this game has, I welcome some good placed humour, a joke thrown in between the lines here and there, I like the Boa moments a lot because they're specific, concise and well placed, and most importantly they don't bother an on-going scene, but then it goes to the other side and instead of people saying "boobs" or "tits", everyone says "booba", dude, just no. It's funny the first time at the "booba lab", but after that it quickly devolves into an unfunny and honestly cringe joke, specially at the yacht, that was a pain to go through. I hope the game stays away from this sort of humour devices moving forward or at the very least uses it in a much more restrained and thoughtful manner.
The game has a very good direction, but I can't help think the humour and memes are a bit far too deep into it, especially taking into account how the game tries decently hard to stay serious with more "shady and real" stuff.
Edit: I came to realize I forgot about the rest of the cast, lol. I like the girls, they have unique personalities and their own motivations, at least the ones we care about, and it's welcome they're for the most part physically unique, especially the faces.
Regarding the dudes, I do like a lot Sa "bottle" mir, he's probably the reason our guy will achieve what he wants at the end, making him learn the real stuff. Jason isn't exactly my cup of tea, again, being mostly a meme character and plus lack of screen time.
All in all, I like the game, I'm rating 4/5, but it's honestly more of an 3.5/5 than anything.
The story is interesting enough and has good places to grow to given how the world is being depicted, but we were left out of a lot at the beginning. It already has it's work cut out with the animation quality which in my opinion is the hardest thing, so hard props on that. I just hope to see some improvements regarding the metric tons of memes.
Nevertheless, it's a game I can recommend, perhaps not wholeheartedly at the moment, but still, I really hope I can see it improve and become one hell of a game.
