This game in some way is better that a lot of games here. I really want to like the game, I feel like the devs have a great story to tell but the writing is not good enough to handle it.
The prologue wasnt interesting. Its extremely important and was supposed to be amazing in order to draw people's attention and to keep ppl playing ( or reading if it is a book). The video was okay i guess, but the writing? Fate and life wasn't something new, you need a genius to make it interesting enough for a prologue.
Then it came the introduction of MC. To start with place, age, name, occupation... was just so boring.
Its like if you want to tell ppl it is winter, the most boring way is to say directly it is winter. You could describe the snow, the trees, or the sound kids having a snowball fight or maybe a snowball hits the MC etc. Just why would you choose the most boring way when its the beginning of your game?
If the newspaper and MC's flashback at the beginning of the game was more interesting, why not start with her reading the newspaper and flashback, then talk about her later when the its the right moment. Its like you have a great story to tell, but you never thought about how to organize and write it in a captivating way.
Sometimes the choice of word seems strange (to me, at least). "Her analytical prowess was known to all, and when she delved into the nuances of human behavior, her observations were never taken lightly." Obviously her observation skills(keen eyes?) and knowledge in psychology were used to analyze Mason's behavior. Analytical prowess is such a wide ranging skill, it includes data collection(observation here?), data analyses , problem solving etc. I don't know how to say but "Analytical prowess" just doesn't feel accurate(?). About "her observations were never taken lightly" I've seen warnings, rules, decisions, words etc used with taken lightly but "observations"? Also, should it be her "observation" or "analysis" that shouldn't be taken lightly? I understand every word used in the sentence yet they feel strange when put together. There were quite a few times I have to pause to think as I was confused by the choice of words.
I do like the vast amount of erotic scenes although porn logic is hard to avoid when sex scenes are everywhere
. I do hope there are more build up and better, meaningful choices, but again this will require some good writing skills...
