To anybody who heard my enthusiasm over the story of The Last Sovereign, and wants to give it a shot here's some advice:
Use a walkthrough. Seriously, there's a lot going on, and you can easily miss stuff or get confused.
If you don't really care too much for the RPG style mechanics, use an RPGmaker save editor and give yourself a little boost when you need it. I say a little boost, because the game occasionally has checks, and will give you worse results than what your stats say you should get if you are blatantly over leveled, or buy something that is literally impossible to buy at that stage of the game.
You don't have to worry too much about levels, because there are no random encounters, and no way to farm xp. The game is balanced based on these limited encounters, and so long as you understand basics of the combat system, you will be fine.
Seriously, though, use a walkthrough.

For me it depends on how slow we are talking about. If the game is in development for > 6 months to a year and there are no adult scenes its a no thank you for me. I refuse to play slow burn games that are still ongoing because I think they have a very high probability of being abandoned. The wait is worth it only if there is a payoff at the end and in most cases you are never going to get to see that payoff. I am not going to wait 2 years just to see a render of a boob. I also dont like games that are slow for the sake of being slow - I can understand things like teenage romance take time to setup properly but when we are dealing with older characters that act like kids and beat around the bush I find it annoying. The second highest rated game currently on this website after Eternum is Pale Carnations which is set in a brothel - if that was a slow burn (its not) it would make 0 sense to me given the setting. So it also depends on the setting and the characters. Without the sex scenes an adult VN is the equivalent of a romance fanfic. If plain romance is what I wanted to read I would watch a romance based movie or tv show or just read a book - you can find content that is 100x better in those mediums.
I think a VN such as this needs to find the right balance between adult content and character development. I think this VN is doing a fairly decent job of it so far - versions 1-3 were a bit slow and had good buildup and I expect things to pick up in the next few updates similar to once in a lifetime.
Same - its a real shame that it is a porn game. I would have loved to share it with some friends.

I mean, kinda? Kelly has actual muscles tho
Btw am I the only one that recognized Annie wearing 2B's outfit and weapons while Luna was wearing Triss Merigold's outfit? I find it weird that they dont even make a mention of it in game while they do mention stuff like Microsoft and Disney properties.

I maintain the belief that Eternum (in universe game) has rights to use, if not outright owns, other video game stuff. Similar to Disney buying Pixar and Marvel, Ulysses has perhaps bought the rights, if not outright bought the company, to other IPs such as Witcher, Destiney, etc. Seeing something from the Witcher in Eternum is no more worth mentioning than seeing a Captain America Shield on a shirt in the Dr. Strange Movie.I mean, kinda?

That is just my working theory for the in-universe reason.
It is also possible that the assets just are what they are and Caribdis just doesn't want to make a big deal out of it just because he liked an outfit and used it for that scene.
And it's long, really long, like 80+ hours RPG long, and quite complicated too with a whole lot of variables to keep track of if you want to get the best outcomes... and it's not even completed yet, that's just for the content released so far.

I'm a fantasy fan and in my teen years I believe I played all the fantasy games in existance at the time. Even the worst crap.
The last sovereign is the best fantasy game with the best story I've ever played and I can't talk about it to anyone because it's also porn. Fml.
The way you can shape the whole world is something I've never seen anywhere else. It's beautiful.

On the one hand, I would agree with you, but on the other hand, I simply cannot put any of the main characters above the rest. Seriously, having played hundreds of completely different games, this is probably the only one in which I do not have a favorite. All the characters are so interesting, beautiful and wonderfully written that it's hard to believe.

Okay but Nova is best girl though
Best girl has changed every update for me. In v1 it was annie, v2 it was nova and in v3 it is penny. Its probably going to change again in v4 based on the in game events.
