I sincerely don't understand why this VN is so praised and why it has such a high rating (about 5 stars with 40+ votes). In my opinion, there is absolutely nothing to praise here. I'll sort it out point by point:
1. Plot and characters - weak foundation
In my opinion, the story does n'tt stand up to criticism. Regardless of the choice between the two paths ("Bull" or "Cuckold"), it remains primitive and overflowing with unnatural coincidences (" deus ex machina moments "). The characters are sketchy and devoid of depth.
The developer is negligent even about his own installations. A striking example: at the beginning MC mentions that his friend Bob has recovered since their studies. However, in the Bull's path, when Bob shows up at the party, the same character model is used — he looks the same as always. Why introduce this detail if it isn't reflected visually in any way?
It's either graphomania, or just a disregard for small things. There are many such inconsistencies and far-fetched plot twists, which ultimately kills an already weak story. And in visual novels the plot is the foundation of the basics.
2. Gameplay
When there's no story, gameplay could pick up the slack. But it simply doesn't exist here — just a classic and extremely simple choice of answers at key moments. It is impossible to rely on this element.
3. Atmosphere: visual and sound
Maybe the game benefits from the atmosphere? Alas there is a failure here too.
• Visual: The renderers are very heterogeneous. There are a few good ones, but most of them are of average quality.
• Sound: This is probably the most annoying part. Throughout the game, regardless of what is happening on the screen, the same piano composition is played on repeat. No variety, no sound effects, no adaptive soundtrack. You either slowly go crazy from this monotonous background, or you just turn off the sound.
4. Content: even genre elements don't save
Since the game is positioned in a specific NTR genre, it would be logical to expect its strengths in this particular area. But even here there is disappointment:
• The content consists of static and often medium-quality images. There are few variations of images for a large number of scenes.
• The psychology of the characters has been worked out to zero. There is no reflection, internal struggle or development — neither on the path of the humiliating "cuckold", nor on the path of the vile "bull". Because of this, all the scenes are perceived not as dramatic moments, but as a set of mechanistic and detached pictures. There is no diving.
Bottom line:
Deep disappointment. For me this is another project in the NTR genre, which, despite high ratings, doesn't represent anything valuable.
