Ya know, I kind of feel the same way sometimes. Just tried this one today, and it's interesting, I like where it's going, but I tend to agree; throw a dog a bone sometime, eh? Build up is nice, but the tease makes it hard to endure the wait. The possibility that I'll end up forgetting about it is there cause there's nothing concrete and no real assurance that you'll even get it the next time. I really did the "is that it?" take at the end, too. Would have rather not known about this one until it was a more fully fleshed out initial release - keep me coming back for more, don't just build up any hope and then crush the player, kind of thing.
Despite that, I probably will come back to it again in the future, but I would also just assume ask someone else and let them tell me it's there, especially when there are many other good VN's out there I could be spending time on instead.
Don't mean to make this sound like I'm bashing the game, however. I do actually like it, but it really just goes back to the beginning and the question that needs to be answered; what exactly are we here for, and is that need being filled? even minimally? Otherwise, spend more time with it and release it when it gets to that point, imo.
