This game is very repetitive and there is a lot of grinding. Also, a huge pet peeve of mine in sandbox games is where a dev will set up the majority of the tasks at the same time of day. So for this game - most of the tasks are triggered in the afternoon. You will have 2-3 LI's who's story can only be advanced in the afternoon. So you fast forward to afternoon, complete a task for one of the LI's, then go home and sleep until the next afternoon. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat .........................
Then to make this boring ass grind even more boring - some of the tasks can only be completed on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon. Others can only be completed on Sunday afternoon.
Additionally - in many most cases you are completing the exact same scene 3-4 times. The only dialogue that changes is - from the 1st time to the 2nd time, the word 'again' gets added.
1st time: so you want me to jerk you off
2nd time: so you want me to jerk you off again
3rd time, 4th time, 5th time: same dialogue as the 2nd time
It's just so fucking stupid!!!
What is the point of making players do 1 task per day, then fast forwarding to the next day?
So I can't talk to my teacher in the morning, my neighbor in the afternoon and my mom at night? Sometimes you are able to do that, but most of the time you are stuck in this bottleneck where most of your tasks all occur in the afternoon.
In addition to the grind - the artwork isn't really all that great. Sure it's cartoony but that doesn't make it bad. It's just not great cartoon illustrations. Also the characters look completely different from scene to scene. In some drawing the mom looks super hot in other drawings she looks totally different.
The only reason I went with 2 stars, instead of 1 is some of the dialogue is kind of witty. The witty dialogue was just enough to keep me playing.
This is one of those games where I kept asking myself 'should I quit and delete this game?'. I kept telling myself 'keep going, maybe it will start to get better as it progresses'
Here, I will save everyone that hasn't played it the suspense - it doesn't get better.
I totally respect that everyone has different interests and likes/dislikes, but I am really trying to figure out how so many people reviewed this game as 5 stars.
I am really not trying to piss all over this dev's game. If the dev were to go back through and alter the tasks, so that like 75% of them don't have to be completed in the afternoon - this could actually be to somewhat fun game. It still wouldn't be a 5 star game, but it could be a solid 3 star maybe even 4 star game.
