I mostly agree with this and I may just postpone putting any review up for awhile - just to give Buu a chance to get back on track. The concept for the story is good. The elements of the story that are good is MC's relationship with Eliza, MC and Eliza (together) seeking revenge against Taron, and MC's semi-secret origin (who/what he is). And that's all, any deviation from those elements and the game gets weaker. A bit of comic relief or a small side quest is fine but Buu seems to be spending more and more time away from the only elements of the story that work.

If I wrote the review right now, the art would be a strong A-/B+ ... somewhere in there. The story would be a D - good concept but weak execution and the Characters would be a C (thanks to Eliza ... without whom ... D ... possibly an F) .. which would put the overall score at about a C - which is going to impress no one, so maybe I just hold off and see if it gets better later next year? IDK

This overall was an easy A/B+ for me up until the chalice arc. Slipped into B-/C territory there and since coming back, probably even lower. I'm optimistic (delusional) this "grand journey" will bring back some of the early love I had for it. If not...well, there's thousands of VNs here.

Yeah ... even once he came back from the Chalice Arc and Eliza was a vampire now I had had hope because I thought ow she's powerful enough to keep up with him, and together they are close to unstoppable. Unfortunately, since then, they are rarely together except for the occasional lewd scene and I'm not sure why or what Buu is trying to accomplish because there aren't any other characters in Eliza's league. There aren't any other Lis who might end up in Eliza's league. I don't think sending MC away and introducing even more Lis is going to change that. There is one S tier Li and about 20 C and D tier Lis. I don't think we need more of them.

I did put a review awhile ago but I think for me it heavily depends on the path now . Full harem I would rate the story lower ( to many lewds with side girls and not enough main girl progression). Just Eliza id give the story a higher score. Where we differ tho is the characters I think Eliza still brings the character score for me to like around an A or B. Since for me Amelia is showing signs should could be as good as Eliza before the vampire, Also Luna is quite decent and likeable for me. Then there are others I like that need love Like Peral and Alice.

Cool, good for you. I'm putting up a website that I hope will attract the shyer side of the AVN market - people who are interested but are too timid for F95 and don't know what they're looking for. I'm hoping that if I can start them out with some really solid games that it will draw them further in - maybe not to F95 but at least to Patreon and buying things on Itch and Steam. So that's what I'm writing reviews for (a long with supplemental pages like a glossary, and a Game Hall of Fame (for completed things) and Li Hall of Fame ... that kind of stuff. So that's what I'm writing reviews for. I want to get 20-30 good games on there before I even do the soft launch. I don't really review things for F95 - my impression is that people don't pay much attention to those anyway.

Saw some hero talk a few pages back and mention of Kira and Pearl, If It's right back to the pirates all I want Is to see Brenda and the asshole dad of the the other girl(forget her name atm) being brutally murdered and then forgotten and never mentioned again. Also, how Is Eliza? Hope she's doing good.

For what It's worth, I may not hate Pearl but I am not even close to liking her. Kira wore me down because I am weak with red heads, I do like her a fair bit but she can't ever be on the same level as Eliza.

I normally have a thing for redheads too but Kira never came close to wearing me down. I didn't like her from the start and then had to keep batting her away - over and over again to the point where I wanted MC to get mad about it. "How many times do I have to tell you I'm not interested?!?"

I wanted MC to get mad at Alice too - you just got Eliza back, she's wounded and you're ready to go scorched Earth on all of creation to make her well again and destroy those responsible - you're laying in bed with her, and Alice is like "so ... you wanna fool around?" I would have kicked her out and never spoken to her again.

I was turning her down at every point before the cave, after she tried to protect MC from the skeletons I changed my mind about her. I could have done without the sex scene though, would have much preferred to be nice to her without that since I was way more concerned about Eliza and fucking someone else in a cave just seemed wrong.

Yeah ... well I didn't change my mind about her (or her sister) but I just kept thinking "I need to get what I came for and get back to Eliza, I don't have time to get involved in the lives of smelly pirate hookers."

this is a weird scene for me. I kind of put the blame on both the MC and Alice tbh. Alice was sleeping naked but with Eliza which is already weird but maybe not in their culture so I give that a pass then the MC jumps in bed naked with her being naked. This is where I shift blame to the MC. Then when she ask to sleep against the MC I don't entirely blame her cause she does have a crush on the MC and the situation probably giving her mixed idea's or signals. But this is where I also shift blame back to Alice because she should still have some self control here.

So for me I blame both equally for doing something uncalled for and in bad taste in such a situation. Tho if I have to pick one yeah id probably blame Alice a little more cause she lacks self control.

I just re-read my post, fucked It. Meant to ask If there was an update since I saw "hero" talk and got side tracked with my hatred of Brenda and whats-her-face's dad.
