I spent 80 hours completing this game, and I have a few things to say.
TL;DR: Time wasted. The game is rated 2.5-3/5. If you're still planning on playing it, don't waste your time grinding quests or using Intimacy Mode (there's a Petting Ring later in the game that speeds up vulnerability growth). There are few H-scenes. They're uncensored, but 50% of them are just repeats. Additionally, some scenes aren't great. The first half or third of the game feels more polished and interesting than the second half. Also, there are some very annoying bugs.
Now for the details, without spoilers.
Story. It was average for me—5/10. Initially, it was intriguing to follow along, but as the game progressed, the story became increasingly chaotic, and "plot twists" didn't help either. Many girls' stories are introduced only to be forgotten by the end of the game. If not for the last third, my rating would've been higher. Some plotlines also remain unresolved, possibly waiting for DLC, which I'll never know. The transition moment for the best girl in the game (Altisia) is horribly made. Big dislike for that.
Overall Gameplay. Honestly, the foundation is good, but otherwise, it's quite empty—5/10.
- The mechanic of resetting back to level 1 while retaining progression is nice but could use improvement. Considering how quickly you regain levels, it seems like there's room for refinement.
- Combat is weak too. Weapons have attributes against certain enemies, but nowhere does it specify which ones they affect. Some enemies absorb damage equally regardless of weapon type, which might be a bug, I'm not sure.
- Grinding isn't fun. This refers to fully completing the game—finishing all item collection quests, girls' quests, and field items to unlock new purchaseable items. Certain aspects really frustrate me. Adding features like turning off specific loot pickups, auto-killing weak enemies, and showing new loot drops in an area would have saved me dozens of hours and made the experience much smoother.
H-Scenes and Girls. 5/10
There are 10 romanceable girls of different archetypes, and I like them all. Each has one scene initially, with others unlocked through the story. Yes, the scenes are uncensored, but they're lower quality compared to character sprites. After full completion, all scenes become available, so there's no point in grinding them. There's no special fetish content; mostly classic stuff and rape/ntr.
Bugs.
They exist and hinder 100% game completion. Main bugs include: missing floor icons; missing monster loot that should drop but doesn't under any circumstance; game crashes; and missing textures.
If you encounter a bug where the screen freezes (you can tell the game hasn't crashed because sounds continue), here's a fix:
The problem is related to using the integrated graphics processor in the CPU. Nvidia drivers automatically select the use of the integrated graphics processor in the CPU instead of the dedicated GPU for the game. When I changed it in the Nvidia Control Panel from using the integrated CPU graphics to the GPU (GTX 1650), the problem disappeared, and the game started working better.
