I really like the dialogue between the male lead and the girls, and the art is nice, but the comedy falls completely flat for me, and when it gets to the “drama”, for lack of a better term, I just feel like tearing my hair out. It was OK for these rich assholes to be pulling their little tricks when it was for shits and giggles, and to justify an item shop, etc., but now I’m getting towards the end of the game (I assume?), and this stunt with Rick fucking up Andrea’s garden is infuriating—and not in a “I love to hate this guy” way. What the hell is this “You got no proof” thing? Proof to show who? The courts? Even if they had no proof, they don’t fucking need any: he’s outnumbered fourteen to one on a deserted island. Has this not crossed anyone’s mind? The MC just takes all his shit and walks away! Look, I get it if you don’t want the male lead to be a coldblooded killer and have him bash Rick’s skull in with his crowbar—though he really should—but for Christ’s sake, he couldn’t even threaten him with exile or anything? I can understand why the stuck-up billionaire doesn’t realize the creek he’s in, but everyone else?
I’m sure there’s something in store for him, but I’m convinced the writers behind these romantic arcs and dialogue can do a lot better for drama. As is, this part in particular really feels forced. Comedy that relies on an “idiot plot” is one thing, but drama is another.
Pretty good game overall, though. I think the gameplay elements need a little work too.
