So, you didn't play the game yet, you just saw a picture of money and a counter for how many times you've kissed someone and assume so hard it's a grindfest that you want to argue it?

Increasing stats just unlocks more of the related content. If you have sex 10 times, you unlock more advanced sex. At least half those points you gain from story content for each character. There's no need to grind. That would be bad game design for a story driven VN.

It's like you did a search for the word "repeatable" but couldn't read what the content actually is. They're sex scenes. You don't have to grind them if you don't want to, they're only there so you can go to a girl's room and ask to fuck her again instead of loading up an old save or using the gallery. The clothes are for using in those same scenes, and also completely skippable.

The sex scenes are repeatable, you can go to the characters rooms and talk to them, it's repeatable.

The actual story is a linear VN, with no grinding at all. The stuff you listed are more or less bonus content, you don't actually have to do any of it.

So, a grind refers to doing something mundane repeatedly. Such as killing low level enemies for weeks to get an item you want.

In Harem Hotel, you can optionally fuck someone 10 times so they gain experience to fuck better.

Or, with buying upgrades and outfits, you just use the money you passively gain from being a hotel manager.

Using your own metaphor, you are literally calling something red that is purple. In fact, you haven't even witnessed red or purple yet to judge.

Look, if you don't like the game, don't play it. I didn't make this for you. You could even play it and still think there's too much stuff you have to do and not like it. That's fine. We're just saying that you're completely wrong about it being a sandbox or a grindfest, and it makes you look silly for arguing it when you don't even have the experience to have an opinion.

I have no control over this thread. The moderators add the tags. While HH does have sandbox elements, the moderators will not allow a game to be tagged both VN and Sandbox. As HH is primarily a visual novel, it is tagged as such.

Having money does not make something a sandbox. A sandbox refers to "Do whatever you want to make your own fun." HH is not open ended like that, you just cannot play the game that way, it is a linear story.

I would say while linear it sits in between VN and sandbox to an extent due still having some agency, and I want to mention how much I appreciate repeatable events, you have no idea how lively that makes a game for me, specially the exhibitionism ones hehe

I tried it now and retract everything i said is literally an open world game is not only with some sandbox elements everything is a sandbox here what u on about i don't think u even understand the concept of VN or what it means it literally tells u at the start u can't continue the story if u don't raise the stats with some charactaers go and try Fate series and see what VN means
This is Sandbox VN and which means is not "linear" ....i am glad i checked i already knew what ill see day and night cycle click this click that talk with this charachter do this do that and he says linear is nothing linear here DEv there not even a hint system i need to roam all over the place to find the characters and he says is a vn pfff yea right until u find what u need to do i am gonna give u props for the renders though and the characters ...the guy with the experience :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: oh man...

Definitely not HH.

You're thinking old school visual novels. Old guard visual novels. Like the Fate series, as you mentioned, first released in 2004. Or Grisaia. Or Katawa Shoujo. Visual novels have evolved since then, as new computers and new software opens up more possibilities.

Runey's definitely not the old guard; 3D animations + integrated gameplay. But still, it's a visual novel. A modern-day visual novel, to be precise.

Also, kinda funny to think that HH would literally have cost billions of dollars if it was made back in the early 2000s lol :LOL: We've come so much since then

You're technically right on the grinding element, but it's misleading. This game is part dating simulator, you repeat actions such as dating or sex (although the actual content differs each time). If you want to call that grinding, fine, that's the textbook definition.

But grinding in popular culture has come to be synonymous with excessive grinding. HH is not like that. Sure, you need stats, but it'll take you a few minutes tops. If that gets you pissed, oh boy, you're a modern kid. I remember grinding for 150 hours to get the best gear in Dragon Quest IV, back in the days.

Also, if you just want porn, choose another game. This game is played for the story, not the porn
