This an many other games would benefit from a half star system as its currently objectively above "average" but a few things keep it from being "good".
You can tell by the previews if you think the renders are good enough (they should be) for example there is attention paid to lighting/shadows, the menus offer way more than usual in terms of things you can customize (fonts, opacity etc) which again show the dev cares more than "just putting something out", and the LIs are more than just the same 3 models in every daz game with different hair colors.
Somehow despite these positives the game "trying to tell a serious story" is its biggest weakness since it still falls into so many tropes of the AVN genre. Forced sex (via flash forward) in the intro to show animations, MC being thrust into a situation he has no right to be involved in (in this case the idea MC was even wanted at all is laughable), a "sister" who needs to be written in a way that patreon wont remove, forced "drama" that is on the surface weird and a bit illogical but when you dig into it any sense of in universe logic is tossed aside.
This game is good to "look at" but depending on how much you "read it" you can easily get into average or below average. Too serious (as in the story and amount of work dev has put in) for a "fap game", while falling into too many trappings to be considered a "game i for sure read for the real plot i swear"
