Just got the last chapter to play later today but man I just have to say so far this game is so good. It feels like a S tier game for sure to me not quite sure if it's top 10 worthy for me but damn it is close to it.

some of us don't play these games for a quick fap you know, we just like the medium. If you don't like, there are porn games out there you can play instead. This is not one of them
You are right and I lean towards it too. The game looks good, but some games spend too much time 'developing' story lines (etc) and then the developers abandon those game because "there is no enough interest in our game".

I wish you best of luck and hopefully it will not happen to this beautiful game.

I hope my messages did not cause any distress to anybody. This forum is supposed to be a happy place.

After playing this for the first time this feel like a top 5 - 10 game for sure not quite sure where im going to rank it on my personal list yet but high spot for sure. It's almost good enough to beat my favorite. The family is for sure the best part of this game I wish more games did that without the need for the MC to have sex with them. It creates such a fun dynamic I love it. I was expecting chapter 3 to be short when I got to it from comments I read but still took me close to 2 hrs to finish. This for sure one of those games I cant wait for an update and not many AVN's make me feel like that anymore maybe only 20 out of the 75 ive played.

When it comes to LI wow serious this dev has done a great job. Not to many LI in this game but could be 1 or 2 less for sure. Seen some say there is to many girls in this game you meet too quickly I didn't feel that at all since most of the girls come across as SG's so it's fine to include alot if they are more side girls that arent going be around to often. Hard to say without doing a direct comparison to other games but the girls in this game feel prettier than any other AVN so far or at least top 3 or so for me.

I want to like Emily the most for some reason no idea why and Kiara the least but nope I don't.

Out of the LI im interested in I like them in this order
Kiara - I feel bad for her the most
Meera
Emily -
Catherine
Mina ( Not interested in her for a dumb reason she reminds me to much of another LI in another AVN I friendzone cause she looks exactly the same)

I'm assuming the other cheerleaders are gonna be side girls but man I like Eve and Vivian alot ( think that's her name the redhead with the crazy eyes)

Also I want Kiara and Emily to make up and be friends again haha I like them both alot so sucks to see some of my favorite LI fight but it. I hope Chapter 4 gets a good amount of Emily content feels like she needs it the most right now to me.

Will post a proper review later.

It's not a fuck up it's a choice. With all due respect why should the Dev care if the incest crowd are triggered? This isn't an incest game. The story is centered around a realistic and wholesome portrayal of sibling relationships. The sister doesn't need to be butt ass ugly.

All three of the siblings are intelligent, attractive and athletic or fit. That's part of their appeal as a power trio. It's not just the MC being Superman and his friends and no Li family being Jimmy Olsen.
lol "realistic" this game has some of the corniest dialog and unrealistic situations of any game I've ever played, and you want to talk about realistic? Have you ever had any real human interactions? If this is so realistic why does nobody in this "college" act "realistic" or like normal people? The drama was so forced, just like all the Lis interest in the MC.

I think this is a matter of perspective in all honestly. I never thought anything was corny and I'm another one that thinks the dialogue comes across as wholesome and realistic for the most part. There might of been times it doesn't sure but i'm sure you can say that for just about any AVN as well even the top tier well known ones. I played in the moment so I never really sat there and thought about the dialogue outside of the context of what is being said or happening in a scene all that much as I was enjoying the game and that's all that matters.

But that's just my personal point of view and opinion no one is going to see something the same especially when it comes dialogue , writing or interpretations of a scene in AVN's in general . I do agree the drama is forced but well you can say that about just any game that has drama in it or tv show in all honestly.

" Have you ever had any real human interactions?" Have you? because you can disagree with someone without acting like a child and insulting them. That's something you learn from growing up in the real world.

I don't see what was so corny or forced about the drama. That's your perspective and opinion and not everyone will share your point of view.

It's just what you call a slow burn. Unfortunately, in this industry, "slow" means "fucking slooooooooooooooooow! :eek:"

If the project was finished, it wouldn't matter, because after several hours of getting to know characters and forming relationships, the payoff would be deep and painful anal sex with the virginal school princess. Unfortunately we're in the development cycle, that "several hours" translates to literally several years!

A lot of devs get around this by putting in side girls that you can fuck consequence free, but we all know are just there for distraction.

But yeah, generating interest is the key requirement, and hopefully done without completely compromising the dev's initial intent.
100% (and I really mean 100%) agree: if the game is finished or almost finished - it is not a problem to go through the relationship building and etc, but if you don't know if the game will be finished (initial stages) - it is a bit hard to justify spending hours and hours (and then half a year later trying to remember what happened before)

And you are absolutely right about some 'side girls'. For me personally, it is very anoying that MC has to have sex with some 'aunt/grandma/below average girl' instead of the beatiful girls that are parading themselves half-naked in front of MC.

I never really liked this 'you can look, but cannot touch' thing.
