Im starting to like this more cartoony 3D style more and more. Not aiming for realism avoids the problem of uncanny valley entirely.
Fantastic game all round, and unlike 90% of the games with great potential, this one actually was and is finished.
The story is good, intriguing and even though the ending is nothing mindblowing, it's really the journey that matters, as cliché as it is to say that. (Not true universally tho e.g. GoT) The game does not drag on and knows when it should close the story.
The characters are vibrant and unique, even if everyone has pretty much the same body. Some, admittedly, were better fleshed out than others, but I prefer that and the game being finished over the game being stuck on v0.49 or something for eternity, because the author revises and remakes every minor detail about each character, never making any progress towards actually finishing the game.
The only negatives I can think of is firstly, there is a LOT of scrollwheel action if you want to get the best possible outcomes. For this reason, I would strongly recommend installing the walkthrough mod, even if it kind of trivializes any "challenge" (its a VN
) in the game.
Best of luck to the dev with ETERNUM and any other future ventures.
5/5 Game, felt that since I did not pay a dime for the game, the least I could do was leave a glowing review.
