I personally regard this game very highly, but i concede that you have some solid points here.I just played through this game and got the Linda ending. While I enjoyed it well enough the story in the latter half derailed and any romance side-lined for the heavy drama and then a bizarre last chapter that was all over the place. For example going to Kira's farm to sort that out instead of spending time with chosen chick after the drama sequence is just weird.
Save it for the route IMO.
I know we're here for story but the game is clearly using the sex sells framework as well and the sex aspect falls flat from what I've seen.
The author can write neverending at times tedious amounts of heartwrenching melodramatic dialogue but is seemingly incapable of writing anything romantic or tittillating.
Characters are interesting but only a couple are fleshed out. Should've removed the illusion of choice and just made a kinetic novel focusing on Cece.
I've played many VNs over the years with the last being BaDIK and I do not see why LoF is so highly regarded.
Not trying to piss people off I've just done some searching online and this game is so beloved it shocks me.
Maybe I'm too old and have seen enough real tragedy that I'm somewhat hardened to the emotional aspects of this game though I was moved a couple times.
Or maybe I'm well read enough that it just falls flat for me IDK.
Feel free to flame me for incorrect opinions now. I'm just left feeling frustrated after investing several hours into a story I kept waiting to do something.
