RPGM - Completed - Melphias: Azure and Crimson Verge [v1.226] [dorgel]

-The plot is good enough to keep you entertained. I explored mainly the NTR routes and are quite good.
-The art is immaculate, one of the best I've seen.
-The battlefucks are solid, even some of them are better than cinematics. They aren't that annoying like other games and give you great and creative angles and postures.
-You can choose between the two of the main heroines and end up alone or succumb to pleasure of cuckolding and get the NTR ending with the ugly bastards.

One of the most complete RPGM games I've played, with a outstanding art and good mechanics. Maybe if you want to just complete the game quickly, it's gonna be a pain in the ass, but if you want to play at a normal pace, this game is for you. I only rate it with 4 stars because I feel there's something missing, like the CG are great but I think could've been even better, like Melphi being fucked by Matsunaga, I was even waiting for that scene to happen when I started the story but never happened.

The main perk of the game is the attention given to the worldbuilding, the use of different assets and the cyberpunk atmosphere that works well.

The H scenes are somewhat hot and with a bit of animation, but it lacks originality. Very NTR oriented, it appears every girl in the world is attracted to the MC, which makes it all much less impactful imo. It feels like the story was there and at the end, the dev just chose to make it ntr in every way. Doesn't feel necessary to me.
And why does the MC looks like a child? It's not a shota thing, it's just an adult that looks like a child, like so many other female characters. That bothers me.

Also the fights are okay but tend to lack progression and balance. One chapter feels super easy, the next really hard. I didn't finished the game.

Overall I really like the H content, and the game itself does some pretty cool things for an RPG Maker game. You can really tell the dev(s) put in a lot of work. But the gameplay is a garbage grind-fest with little to no direction. The game tries so hard to be many things but ends up boring most of the time.

Wow, I'm glad I endure the painful start of the game, it looked like any RPG maker game with a bit more quality, but the first maze, the puzzles and the walking around searching for the right way almost made me stop playing...
But after that the experience was good, gameplay is standard turn based with some gimmicks in some sections of the game, the art, animations and scenes are impressive, the story is nice if you can engage and enjoy the choices, provided some of them don't really change the story, but some still do and I'm happy.
Still hate NTR, I want to help both, but even if don't do anything they will get jealous, FUKKK...

If you somehow get engaged with the story or gameplay I could see you having a good time. I didn't. The story is pretty random, doesn't feel well-built. There's a lot of poor excuses for NTR and characters act like robots or plot devices. The combat is okay at first but some later bosses are ridiculous until you figure out a trick to beat them. Some maps are too large to be fun and unnecessarily confusing.

Im honestly suprised how well this game is made. There are so much new stuff like the bike/helicopter fights. Cant believe its still RPGM. I played most of the RPGM games and this is easly top 3. I just wanted to breeze through it but seeing how much effort dev put it the game im gonna take it slow and enjoy.

a very solid ntr h game. mechanically plays good and looks high quality too! The story and worlds are surprisingly detailed for an H game. Probably up there in the top 30 ive played. (Apparently this site needs reviews to be VERY long to be accepted, so here's some fluff text. But seriously, the game is very good.

I had a very fun time playing through this game a couple of times. I haven't done the Queen non-ntr playthrough yet but I plan to. I liked the art style and attention to small details that make this game a new favorite of mine. All of the females are different and have their own agendas and desires. I almost wish there was a harem since I really enjoyed the interactions with all the girls. My only minor criticisms would be the confusing level design and lack of quest log or dialog history.

I dont know guys,after plays a lot of RPG games,this maybe the best game I ever play and especally it can play on my weak androi phone,no lagging

Art 5/5
Of course

Story 4/5

I wish they more forcusing on NTR content,more scene and voyeurism but sadly they have scene beween battle instead
Anyway,it a good experienced
Rate:5/5

It is an enhanced RPGM experience, elevated to an 11/10, combat isn't tiresome, there are battle-fuck scenes and it is overall enjoyable. The h-scenes are really good, it shows that the entire project is very high-calliber in terms of development, music is impecable and not too annoying and the story very easy to follow. What pisses me off to no extend is that the choices are all punishing the player for taking them. Literally the entire point of choices is to punish you by turning the characters irrationable and easily manipulated by elements, there is no "right" choice, only a "fuck you, you chose h-event on an h-game so here is NTR" which isn't just NTR it is a entire derrail from the main story.

Players are here to EXPERIENCE the game, I can get behind some choices having an impact on the story, but to the extend of COMPLETE derrailment and breakdown of the character, this isn't how choices are playedout in stories and it shouldn't be, especially in an RPGM game where the save sessions are annoying and back-peddaling what was said or implied is severely tiresome. You need to understand that spending an hour on a chapter going through dialogues and character development again and again per choice u've made on RPGM where the entire event session is literally 10 mins long is not a viable way to implementing such a system. This is my only and severe grip with the game which hurts my perception of it.

Gameplay is standard rpgm game. But some chapter got something unique, and weak mobs can be run down and insta-kill which is nice and less grinding.
The art style is cute.
Plenty of battle-fuck scenes. Although it could be better if there're mechanic like lust gauge, buff-debuff effect from getting fucked or whatever, aside from cloth tearing.
The plot is okay. Better than most h-rpg out there. And could be worth for re-run if you want to collect all the ending.
I'll still give it 5/5 because I'm bias toward white hair girl.

Overall this is a very high production value game. The story is actually pretty good, although a bit confusing as well. One of the best stories for H games. Gameplay is interesting, not too grindy. H element is pretty decent.

Plot twist at the end is really interesting.

The game basically plays like an RPG, you fight, gain levels, push the story, etc. H element is nice touch. Girls are pretty cute as well.

Well, two stars for the dedication and hardwork into the game's art. 1 star for the plot. I understand we came for H but if you're trying to get people invest in your story, don't make a Walking Dead-type of story telling for god's sake. The choices given doesn't matter other than those first scene. Haven't checked Melphi's NTR yet but Queen's one is, in a sense, horrible. She got jealous way too quickly and her NTR is locked the moment you see her first NTR scene. Makes me wonder what is the meaning of the other red choices other than to try leading you into NTR path again... Then comes the next problem. Villains in NTR route got way too much leverage. In normal end one is useless and the other is barely noticable. Last but not least, the main heroines. Should've been millennia-old vampires and both have the intelligence of 15 year olds. Well, at least if you go through the normal end, those plot holes won't be too easy to spot. But then again, most scenes are NTR so what's even the point then?
Anyway, better than a scene collector yet worse than trash RPGM with decent stories. That's all.

I think a lot of the 3-stars are people who have forgotten what actual 3-stars looks like. Call my tastes Flowers for Algernon'd but this is WAY better than the average 3-stars. Production quality is frankly off the charts, with really smooth use of effects that is rarely seen in any RPG Maker, even when running from Wine.

The H could be better, I agree with that. I think they could add two more H chains for Melphi and Queen both, especially as Queen feels tacked on otherwise. And yeah, the Q_NTR CG is ehhh. But OTOH all of the scenes we do have are hot, especially Melphi bar cheating and public service scenes, as well Queen virginity loss scene.

Gameplay is pretty good too. Lots of flair that makes it feel dynamic, but none of it overstayed its welcome (aside for Moon Phase mechanic). Having both "touch and it dies" for EXP farming and normal encounter you can fight normally makes it balanced - if I want to do some battle fucks (and there's a lot of that) then I can, but if I just want to get EXP I just walk around.

Story is pretty good. The premise is good, atmosphere is phenomenal, and pacing stays steady until the ending. The ending is a bit of and ehh, as it wants to put all the reveals in the ending segments, and that creates some confusing stuff (like Matsunaga's entire shtick) but overall my only real complaints are that there isn't more endings, particularly NTR endings.

I give it 5/5 because taken as a whole, it is great. It likely won't be in my pile of quick use side dishes, but it was great nonetheless.

I have tried some ntr games and i don't really know how to explain it well but i just don't consider this a good ntr game imo. The characters are alright, nothing special. I like melfi, she's cute, and caring and has some secrets which make her has more depth. While queen seems bland to me (maybe because she doesn't have alot of screentime), which just doesn't make me care during her ntr scenes. Another aspect is that the relationship betweent the mc and the main heroines iseems scuffed and unpolished, of course especially the queen. Usually in a good ntr game for me, I feel like i want to save the girl, I feel pity and anger. But this one? I feel nothing, just feels like a normal h game while the love interest of the mc is getting fucked by someone else

Don't get me wrong the game is great. The production quality is insane, the music is amazing, the story is decent. But it's not a great game as an ntr for me

A really solid game. 4/5

Plenty of content, good story and bunch of well developed characters that make those important moments worth it.

Map exploration is the standard. There is not much hand holding, and it lets you explore it to find those "secret" H events. Map is small. however, but that may also be a plus for some people that do not want to waste too much time.

Battle-gameplay has 2 types of monsters, first type that pulls you into traditional turn-based gameplay for those that like that, and second type that you just run over for XP, which is amazing if you just want to follow the story.

Base art, at least for me, is the biggest downside of this game, since it kinda hangs on the average when it comes to quality of it. HOWEVER, usage of it is really good. So even if art and artstyle are not really up to my tastes, they are still of high enough quality to be enjoyed.

Variety of H scenes is also solid, but story that surrounds them is what makes them really good.

Type of NTR presented is meh, since they is no buildup for it, and they kinda just jump into it willingly. No trickery, or proper time for corruption , just plap fiesta. But again, it is really well done, so you'll enjoy it even if there isn't much buildup overall.

Conclusion: 4/5

It hangs in the upper parts of RPGM NTR genre, with really good overall quality.

That was a ride ngl. There's a lack of the queen scenes but overall it's absolutely good, normally i got bored 2 hours in and just skip to the recollection but i play it till the end. I did get the normal ending for one of the girls but nevertheless. I will absolutely replay it again for the other endings.

Gameplay 4/5 solid kinda grindy especially for But nevertheless you can beat them pretty easily.

Scene (NSFW and SFW) 4/5 Super lagy especially the h-scene and custom introduction. But it's still bearable.

Story 4/5 easy to understand atleast for me.

A very polished and well made disappointment.

Amazing art and beautifly animated sex scenes. This game would have been much better off just going full vanilla. The NTR is poor at best. From the onset you only get the NTR when you specifically choose the color coded NTR options. This completely nullifies the feel for anything other then netorase imo.

The game also has way too much combat, you will be fighting pretty much non stop. All while navigating maze maps that eat up your time with forced backtracking.

I play NTR games for the NTR, and while the two main antagonists were set up decent enough, the game failed to establish a proper relationship from the MC to the girls that felt satisfying. With adding that the only way to trigger NTR was to pick teh NTR color coded options that also initiated the MC to cheat.

Ultimately the writer of this just didn't understand any form of NTR, as I dont think this will please many on the story alone. Just comes off as being NTR because NTR is popular, and they wanted to capitalise.

But as a game, its solid if you like the basic RPGM combat. The art and sex scenes are very well done, the the game runs smoothly without issues. It was just an average experience overall for me. Just felt it missed every shot it tried to take story wise.

If this wasn't a porn game it would be a very good game. A lot of work looks to have gone into this game. It's production value is insane. However the porn side of things is very underwhelming. As someone who enjoys NTR games the NTR just doesn't really hit especially in the Queen NTR ending where the only sex visual is ruined by Matsunaga's face taking up the screen. As a game it's pretty decent but as a porn game it falls short at least in my opinion.

Honestly, it's one of the most impressive RPGM games I've played. Some of the shots it's able to set up are really impressive and feels like you're watching an anime at times. You can tell the devs had a clear vision and a love for the story they wanted to tell with their attention to detail. I wouldn't say it's a perfect game though.

The story is on the darker, more serious side like something you'd see in a Cli Pick game, although not quite as dark. Which is great imo. The set and setting are easily 5/5. All of my issues pretty much come with how the game implements it's systems and some of it's pacing.

For example, there is a phone system in the game. Early on, you feel like you'll be able to call different characters and/or maybe catch them in the act because you can travel separately but this never materialized for me. With Melphi, the only person I was able to ever call was Shizuma ( MC ) for example. I think there is the bones of a great system here though and could be better implemented in future games.

Also...

My only other issue with it is pacing. Some parts get a little grindy, especially towards the end and that last dungeon was an absolute chore to get through. Luckily you don't have to actually go through random battles though if you don't want as you can just farm the 1 shot enemies for xp.

Overall though, since half points can't be given ( 4.5 ), I'd give it a 5/5. Because the visuals are unmatched really for an RPGM game, the storytelling and worldbuilding is great and I think it sets an incredible base game for what will be no doubt be one of the best devs going forward.

And the game is selling great on DLSite. It's good to see a dev that puts this much love, effort and attention to detail into it's game seeing great success. Congrats to the dorgel team, they made a banger!
