Yeah, the first mini-game has a lot of flaws, I'll admit. (The second one too, actually, since it's a bit unfun, but at least there are more scenes to unlock there!)
For 2.5 there's a mini-game in the style of the jobs but more interactive and imo more fun than the two other, so I can't wait to hear whether you guys like it or not !
Honestly i wouldn't say they're not fun. They rely on an idea that i think is great: glimpses of life through every day work. Most video game don't even bother thinking it through; MC is working they make the player work
There's mostly nothing else beyond. RPGM porn game needed karyn prison to even think to bring the porn inside turn based fights
The real issue about the work phase is mostly the amount of content i guess. It gets repetitive cause there is simply not much scene right now.
Also, they all kinda happen the same way.
Those two things put together make it a bit unrealistic i dare say. I mean the repetitivity is making it not believable that the work phase is actualy happening within the story.
On the matter the first phase game is doing it better, since the thing you do within the minigame makes things happens outside of it. And since phase two is triggered as soon as you've completed phase one content, i personnaly did not even have time to fully understand shit before it was finished, let alonefor it to feel boring
Also, one could argue that despite a well refined UI, some little thing are a bit annoying like checking out on which camera a scene is happening or wherever a girl already did a task or not.
I for one think those mini games are great and are already a lot better than your usual porn mini-game. And let's be real, there's no way each and every task you give a girl have his own arc.
On another note, it makes me think, that would be so much fun if the inspirationnal game would spell meaningfull thing toward the story like "Girlfriend cheating on you" or whatnot
may be they already are honestly i am so bad at it i didn't played much
