Weird then. I have a 3060 that I'm pretty sure I didn't even configure well. What's your RAM? I have 16GB but I pretty much always play while doing other stuff, so a good quarter of that is always in use.
Well atleast Ima now in the game so i will enjoy first. few questions before start!! Is this game overall more of a cheerful slice-of-life style, or does it lean towards a dark tone filled with depression and sadness? Did the protagonist really travel through time, or is it some kind of... brainwashing or dream? (If it doesn't involve spoilers.) bruh... recently read some romance novels with bad endings, and I really need something to cure me. Especially since LIL updates almost every month or every couple of months. It feels like the creator of this game must either love it deeply or be a full-time developer. Compared to the painfully slow update pace of other similar visual novels, LIL truly a fresh air!
And since I only decide to play the KoiKatsu style novels, not much opinions i guess
The game is oppressively serious and dark. There are many wonderful slice of life moments, but the meat and bones is a dark journey. I don't think saying anything about plot is a good idea given the nature of this VN. Needless to say, years later, we have thousands of posts still trying to parse the story fully up to this point. Give it a shot, see if it clicks, and if not, no worries. For those of us that this game gets its claws into, though, its unlike anything else out there. For those that don't click with it, then its no big deal to move on. Best I can say is this:
Good Evening. Your suffering inspired me to make something terrible. I hope you hate it. (It probably has mistakes, but I gotta stop messing with it for now.)
If you're truly starting, I recommend you also install both the hints mod and the save mod, though they're optional.
Yo though, if it is indeed accurate, it ain't half bad for those of us that don't mess with URM.
Thanks, man! I’ve started playing for a bit now, and I’m really into the overall vibe and writing. No worries—I’m fully committed to diving into it. (Though, I did accidentally stumble across some pretty creepy screenshots while scrolling the thread, but hey, still within my tolerance!) Lately, I’ve been playing a lot of super lighthearted and comedic harem games in this genre, so this feels like a refreshing change of pace.
Honestly, the type of game I’m looking for right now is exactly one with interesting and thought-provoking story, filled with well-developed, multi-dimensional characters. I’m kind of tired of those shorter games that are mostly just H-content—played way too many of those and started to feel a bit burned out. Even if the story’s core is dark, I hope it gives me a sense of fulfillment and leaves me with no regrets about the experience.The game is oppressively serious and dark.

Don't go into this like an H game. Go into this expecting a story with sex in it, and any time you're given an option to make a choice, it isn't like a normal H game; its an indictment upon you and H games as whole.
Good luck on your journey! And if its not for you, no worries. If it DOES click though...we'll see you again soon...
EDTIT: Oh, and of course...Remember to Smile.
Well, its literally multiple million words long, so its a heck of a read, that's for sure. As for the creator, he got into a beef with this website, so he's gone from here, and the game doesn't show live updates anymore. His Patreon got nuked a long while back for various reasons, so if you want to see the official release, its on Subscribestar. He's a turbo douche, but he is a good writer and very devoted to his work. Here, we separate the art from the artist. Very few here like him as a person, but most, if not all of us, respect his artistry.Honestly, the type of game I’m looking for right now is exactly one with interesting and thought-provoking story, filled with well-developed, multi-dimensional characters.

Since I’m usually busy with school and work, I’ll probably only have about 1-2 hours to play in the evenings after getting home. Considering how long this game has been in development and the fact that it updates almost every month, it seems like it’ll keep me occupied for a good while
oh my, may i ask what he did? The last time I saw a strained relationship between F95 players and a developer was with the creator of Twisted World. He originally spent two years seriously working on the game(and is very good), the content had progressed to version 0.7. But despite protests from most players, they launched a Twisted World remake to rake in easy money on several subscription platforms. A year later, the remake is still stuck at version 0.15, plagued with issues like deceptive updates and negative feedback about the whole reset.
He used to be chill and helpful. But then things got weird. Money changes people. Hatred of piracy, attempting to get the game taken off the site through nonsense means and going against TOS. Creating DRM to wipe people's saves and generally being a massive dick. Its a long story, but basically it comes down to a massive ego and hatred for those that actually play his game. I wouldn't worry about it, but there's lots of posts about it and folks here who know better than I do.
That refreshing change of pace is about to hit you as bad as Ezio from AC2 went from a carefree boy to having most of his family killed in the first act of the game. If you can handle that whiplash, you might get hopelessly addicted to the game.
lmao, mere hours into finding the thread and you found some of the biggest drama. The dev got themselves banned from here, the game has been promotion banned so they don't get most of the audience searching the updates queue finding and supporting the subscribestar that Selebus uses because the content of the game got too 'spicy' for Patreon to handle (and it's only gotten 'worse' from there)
Thanks, bro! I tried installing the guide and the black style mod, then started waiting for the game to launch god... I think I’ll just reinstall the game instead.
oh shit are they ban for the Loli issue? i thought high school girls are not loli anymore
They never got an outright answer to what got it banned, but Sel gussed it was a scene where the MC may have sexually assaulted a drunk passed out high schooler. And there is definitely a scene people say is worse now.
No, they tried to get the game banned for the Loli issue, but it wasn't a thing. They pissed the mods off by being a dick about the forum rules. It isn't about the content in the game. Its about harassing the forum and being a dick. And the final straw was the DRM erasing peoples saves. You could try using the thread search function to search for "Selebus" and "banned" or other related terms, and there's lots of posts about it. The game's content isn't the issue. The creator is the issue, sadly. Hence my previous comments about separating artist from art.

Ah, I see... Well, no worries, thanks for always answering my questions with such enthusiasm, it really made my gaming experience much better! Even though English isn’t my first language, I’ve really enjoyed interacting with you all. I’m planning to finish my paper and then continue playing. I’ve noticed that after using mtool to launch the game, it’s much faster now—only takes about a minute to start, though it still feels a bit slow.
So there is actually femdom content...but considering that it is an adult woman sexually assaulting a boy, it seems to be far different from what is acceptable to the public...At the current stage of my game, I feel that the MC is pretty good so far.
A single wrong choice could affect the ending, for sure, but we're years from a final product, so there's no way to know yet for sure. I wouldn't worry about it too much for now.
There is a LOT of non-consensual acts in this game, so definitely be aware of that going forward. As for who is in control of whom when such acts occur, that is still up for debate. But I don't want to spoil anything else.
