VN - Ren'Py - Elleria [v1.3.3 - Wheel of Fate] [M.C Games]

I really like the game so far, off to a great start. I enjoy the writing, the story seems interesting and I like the characters and renders as well. Animations could be better but I don't really mind them in a game that's more story-focused. Looking forward to how this one progresses.

Well, the first of all the highlight of this game is the writing. It is very polished and cohesive. I often try to find AVNs produced as mature visual novels with mature writing and not just as fapping material. I want some stories to engage in deep philosophical questions for some refreshments and variety. This is one that I have found which scratches that itch.

The writing on a lighter background is a little hard to read.

I won't question the characters' personalities because I liked the MC, and their dynamic was also enjoyable.

Also, the theme is medieval times and fantasy, which is used so much yet we can't seem to get more of it. So another kudos to you for producing another enjoyable fantasy and medieval-themed AVN.

But the only thing, not a complaint, is the intro is quite short, and before I could realize, I have finished the VN. Though it is short, I gave it 5 stars because I see it developing quite well in the future. So best of luck, dev!

I gave this 5 stars, not just because of this intro but because from experience I know that Mystic CRO writes great stories. In this intro the renders are also the best I have seen from him. I have confidence that this will be a really good story as it continues.

Allright, you can already notice from the very start that this dev has some experience under his belt.

At the beginning of the intro, nice back ground music and sound effects, off to a good start!

Writing style and quality is nice and easy to read. Though on some lighter back grounds, the text itself is sometimes a little harder to read.

The character of the mc is very compasionate albeit in his own way. He doesn't care about racism or that he's being shunned by human-kind for being "an elf lover".

Also the story itself presents an interesting philosophical and metaphysical question; What is faith? Is faith blindly following the oracles of gods? Or is faith tested by adversary and suffering?

In summary; This is a very good initial release. Albeit a little short, the quality itself makes more than up for it. The story is very interesting and got me hooked pretty good. Looking forward to future updates for sure!

If I could give half stars, I would've given this 4.5 out of 5, since I don't think that little detail with the text should cost 1 entire star =P
