Why pick? From the very beginning it is written as a harem game. There is likely not going to be any drama either.
Everyone is different but for me, just because it is a harem doesn't mean I will look at them all the same (at least in my experience), because I just can't help it; there's always one or two that throws me off or rub me the wrong way. Which is why this game is challenging me to go against this belief. I am actually impressed and thankful that the dev created these well written characters!
Same here. Honey Select is the worst shit and an author have to be damn good to make up for this flaw. Caribdis is one of these authors. On top he knows how to make good graphics with HS. It shows it's all about the dev if you want to play a good VN. I can't understand the kiddies who values a VN only about the quantity on lewd scenes or if there is some fetish content in them like incest or pregnancy.
I have nothing but good things to say about Caribdis so far. Definitely agree that it is up to the dev to make a game great, especially with Honey Select. So far, I've found almost no grammatical errors in the script which is RARE because you'd be surprised how many out there that have it even though they claim to have been "proofread". I'm nitpicking because it really does take away from the immersion a bit when the script is off, often due to these errors.*
Furthermore, the plot and the world that is being built have so much potential and he could do a lot with it, which is why I am excited to see which direction he decides to take with the story. Having some Greek mythology/references are just icing on the cake for me because I am a sucker for that stuff.
*Dev if you are reading this, I just want to point out a little typo made in Annie's first scene with the word "nervous" being typed "nervious". Not trying to be a grammar Nazi, I just want to help out make the game as best as it could be, because you are doing an awesome job already so far.
