Nice update. I really liked how Sumu date went. I just wish there were animations or at least more images in the H-scenes. And I hope we get Niwa events soon.
Some of those reviews are crazy. I guess this is why traditional story driven visual novels died off. One thing I dislike about most modern non-japanese VNs is the lack of characterization.
I will admit we have yet to get many answers we want but it's alluded that we'll get them soon.
Also a lot of games only give an illusion of choice for plot simplicity and it's crazy people don't realize that.
Edit: I'm really going on a tangent but it's like people don't realize what makes the classic story driven VNs work. Clannad (the anime, havent played the VN yet) is a great example, S1 is a bunch of character building and SoL. Then S2 is the dramaric tear jerker that relies on us liking the characters. I've seen it time and time again, people complain that they need to watch s1 of clannad. If they put Clannad and Clannad after story into only 24 episodes it would not have the status it has now. It would have horrible pacing.

I just want to say, this game rocks.
Even while playing with self voicing mode, the sandbox segments work flawlessly, usually in most games sandbox elements don't work/ are not read by self voicing, not in this game though.
So thanks for making such a very cool game, can't wait to play more.

In a world where every avn I've played has animations, my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
I would rather take default koikatsu scenes that are badly looped, low fps and has a lot of clipping issues with a warning somewhere about the animation quality than no animations at all. I probably wouldn't have started this game had I paid attention to the lack of an animation tag.
Maybe have like a toggle to enable all animations and have them be whatever you can make in x amount of time for each scene.

Cant disagree more, personally. I hate the standard kk anims, and clipping takes me right out of the mood every time.
Sorry this one wasn't to your taste though. Hope you can find something more your style!
TBH, it also surprised me, though it wasn't a dealbreaker, the game was interesting enough to get past it.
I do agree it'd enhance a few generics (CHIYO!!!)
You could also argue that seeing the animation tag would be enough to hook people in and it wouldn't be false advertisement because the game would have animations and also sufficient warning about the quality of said animations. Sometime you may ask yourself how the image would look as an animation. The game may also feel more alive and modern if there are animations included. Even more "professional", but like everything, that's up for debate.
The option to animate a few key scenes also exist, but I'm guessing that's also off the table as the problem is preparing the tools necessary to get animating is a lot of work. I never understood how people got animations into Koikatsu and skeleton works requires a whole skillset that I never had the luxury to work on (for personal reasons)
See you in x amount of time when I release my regular dose of thousands of words worth of live reactions. (few barely read those anyway)
I'm also surprised by the sheer lack of literally anything sexual in the first few hours of playing. I'm not talking nudity or scenes, but the dialogue... It really is a slow burn. It could honestly pass as a regular non ecchi visual novel at first.
You did not need to comment about your personal distaste unless I refrained from giving a toggle off suggestion for the animations. My comment was also opinion based, making it clear that others may have differing opinion, lessening the need for a reply.
"I probably wouldn't have started this game" doesn't clarify if I will continue it or not. It more likely means you will continue now that you have started.
Are anyone really sorry that someone has a problem with a "subjectively created product"?

I could have refrained from replying to this one entirely but fuck it. Might as well pretend my reply is funny(it's not).

A well made story does most of the work, but all that really does is promote reviews and score which on this site means nothing to me besides finding the game itself, not make the game look more appealing on the previews.
