How's the time limit in this game? In the first game, the time limit was until the end of the year but in this game there's no calendar.

I was surprised that the other rooms in Sayuri's house is skipped, so from the front gate it's directly to her room. Unlike Kozue's house in the first game where she can also visit the other rooms besides her bedroom.

I also remembered you cannot sell items in the first game.

Unli time. Downside though is the Dev made the sequel extremely GRINDY. You can grind all relationships and stats to max (except party members and certain characters) once you get free roam, but it will TAKE such a long time, IDK what the fck the dev was thinking making it so grindy/ take long. It would have been so great if there is no time limit and the grind to max out relationships does not take a monotonous amount of time (example would be certain NPCs appear only on certain timeframe like night only so per day you can only increase their relationship by 1/5 every day) granted days are unlimited it will still get tedious. Item prices/skill upgrades also are through the roof, even with discounts from max relationship you'll still be spamming jobs to keep up with the high prices.

One example is it took me 6 hours+ to max out most relationships/ social stats in the game (for discounts). That is not engaging gameplay, just pressing talk over and over again (even skipping). The dialogue of NPCs are also mostly generic even when increasing their relationship levels (only certain unique npcs have unique dialogue like party members).

Is there any missable stuff? Like in the first game if you screwed up, you'll fail to recruit one of the girls for the current loop. I forgot her name, she's the rightmost girl in the cover. Also do the two girls from Eris' kingdom in the first game also return here?

Any penalty if you lose in the most battles?

I still have not finished the game but I've grinded all available (95%) relationships to max and social stats to max. So far it seems there is nothing missable. H-Events that require you to lose will keep repeating until you lose, etc.

Man, that's so unfortunate. I wonder how long us preggo nuts have to wait till we actually see an incredibly well thought-out pregnancy system in a game that's preferably not text-based. Pregnancy in general always seems to either be a lazy ending-only scene or it's a mechanic that's half assed as hell. It annoys me how you can never really keep your kids and there's always some magical orphanage or the government conveniently takes them away. But oh well... beggars can't be choosers as they say.
Might I recommend checking out Collars Rebirth if you haven't yet? Not only do all the girls have full pregnancies, but you get to keep the kids and watch them grow some. Games still in development, and the art won't be to everyone's tastes but still worth checking out. I think the F95 version might be old so you'd want to nab if from the games site or discord.

Yea that would probably be a game I would enjoy... unfortunately, my weak ass laptop can't even handle the game, embarrassingly enough.

Ditto. Maybe you could make one?

It's not. It has a decent base as a structure but the game is extremely grindy in terms of mechanics. Everything takes too damn long, it's like the dev's primary motivation in making the game is wasting player time. THE CG/ Art is pretty good though and the gameplay (combat) is decent but gets monotonous due to how heavily escalating the stats of the enemies which forces you to grind further in order to keep up. This is from someone who plays a shit ton of RPG H games (even mediocre ones) and I loved all the other games of this dev, this is the only game I've dropped (did not feel like finishing) at about 30% of the game due to the grindy nature. I guess CHEATING to get max stats is one way but that's not officially playing the game as the dev intended.

Even the first game didn't have that much grinding?

Quite disappointing the dev gave up in some scenes/recycled and didn't finish or add others

Still don't know why Kagura went with "Kozue" instead of Sayuri's Strange journey

Maybe so people know it's from the same dev? Who actually disappeared
Yeah I'm kinda disappointed too.
Sayuri was really the only character I really just flat out was not into in the original game and here this time she's the main character. I liked Kozue, and Mui, was not really a fan of Sayuri.

I'm gonna try it but it really wrecks it for me.

Is there anyway to restore/add the content they ended up cutting? The cg on sadpanda implies that Letina and Kozue's genderbent little brother would have been party members though Letina's cg seems far more unfinished then the later.

No.

Long answer, no because the dev never does dlc/content update

Also right now he's been called out because he's still getting money from dumb supporters since he mentioned he was going to release a demo of their new game, "surprisingly" nothing at all yet
