What part of it felt grindy to you? Was it having to sleep and going through the day cycle?

not grindy, time system dont like it. 10 minutes, 1 minute. even 1 hour . What`s that for? why not make it easier and more pleasant
It allows for the creation of events that don't take a lot of time, like going to the bathroom, etc. It's just a different approach than the one used in other visual novels. I don't think it's inherently bad.

why complicate gameplay, to place different charecters every minute in various places. more convenient morning - day - evening . just 3 timelines. i think its main reason why this game is low in ratings. also stupid dialogue system. how did he get this genious idea

It's a better system. It reads more like a book. In other games, you have to click for every new lines, that's way stupider.

If you have bigger chunks of time, that can cause it's own problems. If it's just morning, day, evening, night say, you then have to have some events that take no time while others do. Which is confusing.

Because otherwise, you get problems like having to skip a whole day just to get another evening turn because you can only do one thing. So if you have a watch porn scene and a bath scene to do in the evening, you have to burn through a whole other day after seeing one to get another evening to do the other.

Although don't really need the minutes for that. Maybe once it's fully fleshed out that would have more purpose if there were real time restrictions. Like needing to take a taxi instead of walking, which costs money, which means you have to do something else for money (or other penalty). But right now the minute and 10 minute are just buttons you can mostly ignore, which isn't a biggie.

The low score is also because he stopped making Big Brother, which was very popular. And this isn't a remake of that (well partially), so you're just going to have some bitter reviews for that. And a switch from male to female protag for the bulk of the current material.

Edit: I actually like the dialog system, as opposed to have dialog appear line by line. It allow me to dump all the text at once, go to the top and read at my own speed. As opposed to hitting fast forward (if that's even an option) with the risk of missing some line of text.

The minutes are stupid idea no matter how we look at it.The hour system from BB was more than enough.Not to mention even with that system we have plenty of hours with nothing to do.

Yeah, as I said the 1 and 10 buttons are not really needed. I mentioned it as did notice there is that taxi and walk option, which is different in money and time. So could see some potential or what they were thinking, even if it doesn't matter currently which it doesn't. But having two buttons you don't use on the screen is something I personally don't need to complain about.

I'd take skipping an hour, or using the rest, over having to burn through multiple days because I have to do couch events, bath events, Julie room events etc. during a one 'evening' time slot.

Well, each to their own. In due time i liked BB. Kira is amazing. but now this gameplay is exhausting me. i just cant bring myself play it after much better projects .

maybe author needs to rethink development and start smthing new. So far ideal formula of gameplay and VN for me is Being a dik. example for others .

Glamour is exactly that, a new system to deliver content in visual novels. Being a dik is just a run of the mill visual novel. It has the advantage of having animations, other than that the story is a total borefest.
