Is the game good? Fuck yes. Do I recommend it? Abso-fucking-lutely.
Amazing. That's how I would describe all 3 games. The game does start off slow and a bit clichéd with the whole Goddess telling our MC Luka that he's the hero that's going to save the world from the evil Monster Lord and all the evil monsters but then one fateful day our hero stumbled upon a monster who is not so evil as the people zealously believe them to be.
From then on, it subverts the template the story was heading in and all for the better. The side quests you go through do tend to follow certain tropes like having to fight a final boss right away or the bad guys really being good guys but the journey is still entertaining because of 2 things: Luka and Alice.
Our hero and heroine are like water and oil, a human worshipping the Goddess Ilias who believes all monsters to be evil and a monster that has a story, wants and dreams of her much like any other human. Although vastly different, they both learn that they have much in common and that's part of what makes their journey so entertaining.
Throughout their travels, they meet all kinds of characters with quests that are well-written, becoming even better as you go through Parts 1 to 3. These characters are all well made too with the recurring ones having more of their stories told that are compelling. I really don't want to name names but characters like Chrome, Amira and her friends, and Erubetie have made me blind away tears for different kinds of reasons (iykyk) because of how good they were.
Now comes the gameplay which I believe is the trilogy's weakest part. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it because I definitely did. I just believe that it is weakest part and that's because this is a website with a mainly Western audience. Where's the problem with that?
The thing is, I grew up playing JRPGs on the PS1 so turn-based RPG or RPGMaker games are never an issue with me but the same can't be said for others. Other people are so turned off with turn-based combat that no matter how good a game is, they just won't give it a chance and I am hoping that this review of mine can convince those people that they should give the game a shot regardless.
Yes, the game is a turn-based RPG. Yes, the combat does get repetitive especially whenever you learn from text prompts during battle that enemies have patterns. Yes, there is some bullshit RNG factor in battle.
Even with all of that, I believe that the story, its characters and their quests still outweigh how stupid the combat can be. I don't know if the download links here include the walkthrough for each fight for the whole trilogy but where I originally downloaded the game from, it included a text file detailing how each fights go and the moves you should make.
So the bottom line is, this is one of the best games I've ever played. And that's not, "This is one of the best H-Games I've played". No, this is on the list of ALL games I've played.
Go ahead and play it, you're seriously missing out. Some of the scenes may have fetishes that are not up your alley but they are still worth seeing because of how well made they are.
