Very impressive for an initial release. Most importantly, this little gem of a first game shows that the dev really has potential, as it is both unique and good. True, the game as it is still leaves something to be desired;for instance, the game mechanic, while unique, might quickly become monotonous once the novelty wears off. But I have high hopes for this game. And I wish the very best for the dev to keep learning and improving.
Can one get a review taken down? I hate retrofire's review. The main complaint is that you're a hapless bystander.... so? Who fucking cares. Sometimes that's how life works. You don't get to control everything. I applaud the dev for their brazenness. I need to leave a review shortly to combat this nonsense...
You can report a review for being unfair. If you include a compelling argument the mods will take action.
That's the most in depth, informative, and objective review out of the whole bunch. His handling of that criticism was completely level headed and reasonable. Why would they remove it?
Pretty darn good. Really enoy NTR when it's just one or a small group of people after the girl and there can be no hint of sharing or prostitution. The drugs are a bit... ehh, but given the sanity of the man after six years in isolation it makes sense he'd do everything to get his jollies off. Any sense of right or wrong is long gone, and his personal needs/wants are his chief priority, beyond even survival. I have to wonder though if it can be called a game. Kinetic Novel sounds more accurate, as others have said. Unless there are plans to allow you some leeway in how quickly/deeply the FMC is corrupted? Or your general survival?
He's complaining that the game isn't something that game wasn't meant to be. Not objective, subjective. The story literally tells you why you're unable to spend time with your girlfriend to enhance your relationship. 1) You're given instructions to fix shit far away. B) The drugs that she's being given make her crash at night so when they could actually strengthen their relationship, they're unable to. Also! Literally says NTR is unavoidable so what the fuck did that person think they were going to get? Not level-headed, single-minded.
"For example, NTR being unavoidable is fine, but giving the MC agency to decide whether or not it was netorase, becomes a sharing arrangement, or a mission to save his relationship, even if it's doomed to fail would have provided a better avenue for player investment, in my opinion." Not the point of the game and it doesn't suit their needs so that is *drum roll* subjective. They don't like what's being offered and are faulting the game because of their personal opinions. Shit review. I like most of what they have to say, but I take umbrage with the shit that's clearly based on what they want vs. what the game actually is.
From what I've seen it just enhances NTR scenes, like when she's performing sexual acts and the MC calls. It doesn't strengthen the relationship or anything.
...why wouldn't I? In my own reviews I put a neutral / subjective section which doesn't impact my overall rating but refer to things that I wish were or weren't in the game.
