Such an fantastic game, bravo! The scope and ambition of New Coral City is nonpareil and unmatched in almost every category, in terms of the characters, their designs, the interweaving stories, in the amount of choices, and the respectable length. The characters are all so realistic in their amoral sensibilities, sheer vanity, and ostentatiousness. They're dislikable individuals, but they're hot and attractive, so it balances out, just like in real life.
NCC is also the only game I can think of where the setting plays a big part in the enjoyment, the amount of characters, and the branching stories and plotlines, that overwhelming feeling of being alone in a new city is present throughout in trying to hustle for work and maintain relationships. The 'small photographer in a big city' aspect in NCC is conveyed so convincingly, the dev must have some experience in dealing with these types of individuals in similar situations. The premise thankfully isn't some generic wish fulfillment harem fantasy, and doesn't shy away from depicting the complexity of dating, hooking up, friends with benefits relationships, and freaky sexual encounters.
Only downside about NCC is how it must be an utter nightmare to code; so many variations, attributes, and characters to keep track of. It's also a long game, so the script isn't as tight and cohesive as a shorter one might be, and the sex scenes lack in certain areas. Overall, however, the strengths of this game, and what it's trying to accomplish is so ballsy and ambitious, I can't help but admire the assuredness and the interesting direction this game is heading toward. I can't wait for the new update, and wish the developer every success in this regard.
