RPGM - Completed - My friend’s Girlfriend Becomes My Girlfriend [v1.0] [milkseki]

Absolutely foul translation makes the game nigh-unplayable, most UI elements are untranslated, much of the text is incomprehensible, I don't even understand what the characters are saying the entire time I tried playing. And all of this ignoring the gamebreaking bugs. No thanks.

Cool game, its a shame you just steal the GF from people around you
huge con would be taking 1st girl with a blackmail
there is also a lot of scenes of forcing consent rather than organically let relation develop whole thing is rushed

Game is rather easy to play, but not exactly
you need to navigate poorly translated panel
and rooms don't have all the rooms in selection
i spend a lot of time looking fo music room

Summary:
if you like PNG sex with sound effects and big tits, try it

The art is nice that's about it.

The actual game is crap and it's not just the translation. Plot is extremely basic NTR blackmail scenarios except you play as the rape man. The cucks, like normal NTR stories, are completely disposable non-entities even though one is your actual brother and disappear after they're not needed. They basically don't exist outside of letting you know you cucked someone. The girls are braindead non-characters and go along with everything pretty easy and unlike usual netori stories the game doesn't try to justify the MC's deplorable actions. In that sense it's actually closer to a netorare story with how the homewrecker and women in the story are portrayed.

It's not that interesting though because the game is just a bare bones scene collector. You go around and talk to all the NPCs that repeat the same line of where you're supposed to go. You go to place, see scene, go home, sleep and repeat. The menu and emails aren't translated but you can get a basic gist with Google translate pointed at the screen. The dialogue translation is easy enough to understand what's going on in this basic story and it's mostly the usual pronoun problems. The game is also prone to soft locking so save often and be careful messing with the menus.

Though really if you have to play this you might as well just unlock the gallery from the pause menu with one of the untranslated buttons then feel around with another untranslated button on the click menu to go to the gallery. The walking around parts are a waste of time anyways and don't actually add meaningful context. Total waste of 2 hours.

Milkseki game with a surprising degree of heroine plot development. Usually the developer cucks the protagonist's main love interest as a form of balancing. But, this game, which starts with a single protag; surprisingly excludes this implementation, putting the main focus on just netori. I could do with more of this. I can see that not all of the heroines got the attention they deserved for their routes, but even with that criterion, this game is still great for what it is. Maho was good as a starter heroine but I would've preferred some genuine rapport, character exploration, and an alternative route where blackmail wasn't needed. Ayame's route was interesting enough but lacking in emotional attachment and my personal preference warrants an alternative route for genuine pursuit. Mimi was done dirty. Sort've felt like her route was left half-finished, lacking in any sort've finality or weight to interactions. Kana: my favorite route. I have no complaints. It has all the elements I take to in these types of games: stealing hearts, defiance of social constructs, pride over matter, allusions to past deeds, and more. Except, maybe the translation could be redone to better express how I believe every other heroine's route should've been. Finally, I believe a set of afterstories would've been nice for further plot development as well as a big fat fin or the end to wrap things up. Overall, this game isn't perfect, but which one is? There's always space for development. This work gave me the inspiration to dream of IFRoute, and that's saying a lot compared to some dumpster fires. Although it has a lot to do with self-satisfaction, I wish Milkseki for more.

The art is good. That's about it.

Even with the translation/fix patch, it's a barely formatted game with tons of jank and bugginess. But I can tolerate a certain amount of j-jank.

However, the story is psychotic. You play an incel guy who makes a "bachelor pact" with your buddy due to you both being single. Then your friend gets a girlfriend and you immediately start committing felonies. At first it seems like you might be a cunning manipulator, getting in the good graces with the girlfriend and showing up your friend by being more charming/athletic, but no. By like day 2 you drug her, strip her and sexually assault her, and take blackmail pictures. I turned the game off there.

I'm not some moral guardian here, but it's a pacing issue and jarring tonally. It's like burning down your work buddy's house if they got a better job. I don't wanna pathologize the game but it's so out of pocket cruel that I think this is made for and by psychos. I'm all for a good revenge type story even if it gets morally depraved, but there has to an appropriate set up with a justifiable response. There's no set up or build up here, just straight into some psycho incel shit right away. If you're into that, well, then you go have some fun, I guess.

It just rubbed me the wrong way, on top of being a barely translated, poorly programmed piece of tech.

~2-hour game of Netori and a bit of Incest. Didn't run into any bugs. The game isn't entirely translated, mainly images of text or some menu buttons. However, the buttons are easy to figure out. Some overlapping text, text running off the screen, and grammar issues, but doesn't affect gameplay. Favorite feature: Talk to any NPC to know where to go in conjunction with the teleport menu.

Main Gameplay isn't translated and there's a game-breaking bug that doesn't allow you to progress very far anyway. Translator likely half assed the playtesting (meaning it was never playtested) and didn't realize the improper application of the translations broke scripts.
