This needs really an overhaul of the writing
You can say that again. Couldn't remember much of the story, so had to begin with Ep1 again. The art and models make this one stand above the majority of VN's but man, the dialogue and English are beyond cringe level.
Then there's the brandnames that change from "sounds like" to actual brands halfway through the game...
Nevermind the weird scene jumps, e.g. one moment you're in a cabin in the middle of the woods with a thunderstorm raging and apparently a killer on the loose, next moment you wake up back at home in your own bed... and that must be at least two or more days later, because the sheriff told him the road into town was flooded and the dirt road the car was parked on turned into a mud pool... go figure...
I'll stick with it for now just out of curiosity how it'll unfold, but this one could have been soooo much better if only...
EDIT: Just finished Ep5... and something has to happen soon with Nicole or I'll ditch this one... apart from the crazy bad English and beyond cringe level dialogue, the frequent black screens are irritating as feck... so are the mismatches between dialogue and scenes ... so many places where dialogue says one thing and the scene showing something totally different like:
"forgot the wine glasses" (glasses showing on the table)
"let me poor the wine" (bottle with red liquid on table, glasses filled with a clear colorless liquid)
"let me change out of these stiletto's" (wearing sky high heels in the club)
and that's only from the last quarter of ep5...
Nevertheless, still curious where it'll go, but Nicole better gets railed in the next episode
Don't know if anyone noticed, but while the MC is in the club with Erica, there's a bit of narration dialogue about dancing... This must have been copy/pasted from someplace as that's the first and only part where the used English is perfect.
