RPGM - Completed - Kurenkisho Quolta Emeraude EG [v1.15] [kudarizaka guardrail]

Really great game. This is visually an upgrade to its previous title, keeps the gameplay similar which is what makes this game great. The levels are ]lesser tedious. Tho there is a problem with the game due to lag. There is a bugfix provided in the thread but this is definitely a downside. The protagonist so much more beautiful & likeable. The maps are scaled down to enough size to explore completely.

A huge downgrade from the original game,it offers nothing new and improve save for bugs and somehow worse mechanics and everything is noticably slower and more chaotic,honestly this game shouldn't just be a carbon copy of the original,the dev was mistaken to do this,should have made this game unique on its own and learned something from the last,cant recomend it unlike the original.

This game is pretty similar to Jumble Strikers (and the previous game, Amadeus, in the Kurenkisho Quolta series), but it compares quite unfavourably to that one. For one, in Emeraude, regardless of whether you have the lewd status effects and body changes or not, combat is quite slow. It is common to get restrained by an enemy and have to endure 10-15 hits before breaking the restrain. It's ridiculous and a huge time-waster.

The story is really generic. Succubus captures people and tortures them with pleasure. Why? Why not, I guess... And our heroes, or really just Emeraude since everyone else is defeated by Misty and her friends and are used as obstacles to Emeraude instead, has to go through hordes of goons and too-large maps to beat some bosses before the game ends and sends you to basically a debug map where you can fight any monster you want.

As for the porn...well, the art is fine. Not great, but not bad. But seeing Emeraude enduring lewd attacks...just isn't hot. I had this problem with the developers last game too. I think part of it is the slow combat, the art not quite being good enough, and lack of variation in facial expression, and climax not feeling impactful enough. It would have been better if, like in Karryn's Prison, Emeraude could engage more with the sex battles instead of just standing around while others touch her. Currently you play for 3-4 hours and it just feels like a waste of time.

I very much like the idea of this where you are having a protagonist face enemies that corrupt them and it manifests in gameplay mechanics. However either due to AI translation or bad design, you're either forced to just kinda watch the same thing over and over to where said 'corruption mechanics' just drag out the game rather than really unlocking something new and interesting.
Still I like(d) what I did see, it's just that I stopped liking it about halfway through however far I got into the game. You can easily get yourself 'stuck' not in the sense that you can't progress, but if you get one of the curses/corruption mechanics that the game explains in broken english how to fix and none of the things you 'think' it infers to do to get rid of it works. Good job, you just wasted a bunch of time trying to waste less time.
Maybe if this gets a proper translation or at least a lookover to fix some of the problems in the translation this could be decent. Right now it feels like it's barely functioning. (Especially with how the 'skip' or 'speed up' function in battle almost makes the engine shit itself with slowdown. but the normal speed is already dial-up connection levels of pacing.)

Especially average is the right way to describe this game. It is just okay. I almost didn't try this because I had some frustrations with the previous game of this series. But the art is decent. Story is super generic and basically a copy of the previous game, Amadeus. The two games play exactly the same, and have many of the same issues. Tedious uninteresting dialogue that is barely english because MTL. Atleast on Normal you can just spam the AOE TP ability and 1 shot most fights, so combat isn't interesting. You're able to completely ignore magic until the last stage with succubi.

Personally my biggest issue is one both these games share - 95% of the sexy content in these games are just teasing. There is very little penetration in the game - iirc 2 actual penetrations with people (1 futa which I don't mind but some do) and 2 with toys. And those all comes from defeat scenes. Which is another thing - it takes SO long to actually lose in combat and get a defeat scene. I did eventually notice you go get an auto-lose potion, so you can do that, but I've always preferred to lose naturally... so I just wanted until I unlocked the gallery to see those scenes. So unless you are REALLY into teasing with broken english, most of the game just isn't that sexy imo. The corruption isn't even that good as very few scenes actually see changed dialogue depending on if you have certain bad states like a lewd crest.

I would give this game a 2.5 if I could, straight down the middle. But since I can't, I leaned toward 3 because it does have a decent gallery. My only complaint with it is you can't see defeat scenes in your untransformed state - you can only see those by losing out in the world.
