The first is pretty generic.
The second .... ain't bad for a headpat simulator. A bit of melodrama, but a solid artisan's story with basic RPGM gameplay.
Also headpats, did I talk about that?
I actually enjoyed the first way more than the second, but I never really get into the "wholesome headpat simulator" type of HRPGs that a lot of other users here really enjoy (and fair enough, to each their own!). It's just not really my thing, and I honestly found the second game quite dull compared to the first but I do tend to enjoy HRPGs with "darker" undertones.
- Gran Ende 1 was a mostly depraved slow burn corruption game with a female protagonist who starts off prudish and ends up boning the entire town.
- Gran Ende 2 was a mostly wholesome headpat simulator with a good guy male protagonist who just wanted to take care of the girls around him.
- Gran Ende 3 looks like it will be a mostly depraved slow burn corruption game with two female protagonists who start off prudish and end up boning the entire town.
It's interesting that the developers have flip flopped between genres every time they've released a sequel to this franchise. Wonder if the second game didn't sell as well or something?
IN SUMMARY: If you liked the first Gran Ende but didn't care for the second, I have a feeling you will enjoy this third installment.
