Don't know how to leave reviews so will just type it out here lol. This isn't usually my kind of game for a few reasons but it seemed interesting enough to try so I just spent a good 3-4 hours playing and the current state of things was mind boggling enough that I felt compelled to write this.
When I first loaded in and saw the character customization I could tell the game was going to be reasonably high-effort. Figured I'd make a male so I could run around hitting on all the girls or catching them in the wild for fun. Upon talking to that assistant Paw at the dock I found the conversation to be enjoyable. She wasn't reacting too well to all my [Flirt] choices but I assume that's just because early game?
After that I then explored the town. The lack of NPCs became immediately apparent. It also wasn't too obvious which buildings could be entered or not. Anyway between the log book and a couple conversations I was able to figure out where to get my weapon and then begin the rope/wood quests.
This is where I started noticing some major problems that should have some reasonably simple fixes but is surprising for a game that has come this far. The rope/wood quests each needed at least 900 coin to buy the items. Not a problem and encourages the player to look for money but it was very confusing at first where do I make money? I had to resort to a map posted on the forums to find chests with items that could be sold to raise the funds. Not bad but it took quite some time to walk to these chests and that's knowing exactly where they were. Not to mention when I got to their locations many were well hidden so for someone not using a map it's nearly an impossible grind.
At this point I had the items and with the help of a treasure map the grind wasn't that bad but I was a bit frustrated that every girl I flirted with along the way turned me down one way or another. Even the woodworker girl who seemed to suggest she'd service me after the deal never delivered. :< Maybe I made the wrong choices? idk...
Anyway, once the ship was fixed I traveled to the Kizan island and omg that place looks amazing. Being in the jungle is incredibly immersive. This is very professional map design, just wish there was more to discover even if it's small items here and there. Also when I first arrived I finally managed to find a girl willing to fuck (the fox at the dock). The dialogue was great as usual. The writing is definitely one of the best parts of the game.
Eventually I found the Kizan tribe and I talked to them a bit but couldn't manage to bang any of the girls so took a break to write this.
In many ways this game is essentially Skyrim with only beast races and sex mods. Drawing on inspiration from some of the other systems in that game could improve the player experience dramatically.
Things that I would STRONGLY suggest the developer consider prioritizing:
1) Add climax to sex. I seriously do not understand how a porn game can come this far without it. Even some kind of crappy particle system would do for now. Considering it's Unity you could probably grab something off the asset store and have it implemented within a few days.
2) A faster way to travel. Either an upgrade you get at some point in the game or some kind of limited fast travel back to major cities or even some kind of dedicated teleport 'shrines' scattered in strategic locations like ESO or New World does. This seems to be the single biggest complaint I see from literally everyone and if it were addressed you'd be seeing so much more positive feedback.
3) Add more chests scattered throughout the world. You want players to feel rewarded for exploring even if most of the items inside them are cheaper to maintain balance. This will at least somewhat alleviate the problem of a huge map with almost nothing on it.
4) Add some kind of compass like Skyrim and many other RPG games have on their HUD. When you are within X range of a point of interest have it marked grey/slight transparent so you know which direction to travel to get there. Once discovered, the marker can change solid and remain marked on the map. This encourages exploring and feels rewarding as you find new POIs. The compass could also display markers for prey ahead of you.
5) Similar to 4, add a minimap. It would be the same map as when you hit M but just cropped smaller and in a corner of the screen. Have it toggle with a key (possibly a 3rd state for M). Should be incredibly easy to implement. Additionally, when within a certain proximity of chests they should appear on the minimap so you're alerted to their presence.
6) For follower sex in the wild there should be a few animation toggles from a pool based on where the animation occurs. I guess some specific locations might be stuck with 1 but a bunch of the ones where you're lying on the ground for example could easily switch up like in the showroom. And there should always be a climax option.
Additional QoL that would be nice but less of a priority:
7) More NPCs in towns. Even if they can't be talked to this should help add immersion. If there's a fear it could be confusing finding intractable NPCs just put a small marker over their head so you know they can be interacted with.
8) The ratio of dick girls to actual girls is a bit concerning. I understand why they're in the game but maybe it could be made into an option or something? There just isn't enough vagina you can fuck outside of prey and flirting with women so rarely succeeds yet the dick girls seem super thirsty.
9) Harvesting wild flowers/berries etc. Could be sold very cheap but be abundant in the wild. Would offer more to do and reasons to explore. IMO it's just as important as 3 but the system would need to be developed so I'd consider it of lower priority than simply adding more chest locations.
Honestly, aside from some of those things above this game seems to be in a really good direction with a lot to show. It's mostly just a handful of basic QoL improvements that absolutely baffle me to not see in a game that's been developed for this long. I strongly believe if these issues get fixed this game will go from something people are getting frustrated with to one of the best.
