i'll be honest, i want to love this game- i already do in so many ways. as a proud monsterfucker this game has basically everything i want: monstergirls who arent afraid to actually make monstergirls proper, but also with pregnancy and offspring to boot. but i just struggle very deeply with analysis paralysis when it comes to the paths of waifu picking in this game, as well as the almost prohibitive cost of time investment that it takes. either of these things in a vacuum would be less of a problem. but together they make the perfect storm of my personal pet peeves.
i want dragons, kobolds, doggirls, goblins, all of that to all be riding my virtual dick. i get that the setup isnt meant for that, really, i do. but i also very badly want to not have to use workarounds like putting kobold princess away just to get access to dog princess, and THEN have to go on a whole quest/wild goose chase for a magic collar to make her mellow the fuck out so i she doesnt murder the rest of the party for daring to waft their estrogen my way like its an insult to her entire heritage- only to have all that be meaningless because i also wanna make sweet love to some such other princess.
most of the systems in this game have this problem, I want my kobold wife to fatten up to get her tig ol bitties to be even bigger? i need so much food that threatens to bankrupt me, and i have to fight an uphill battle with time and the very fast-lowering meter bar itself. i want to turn the sexy bunny princess into a super broodmama? either not in the game yet, or i have to jump through so many hoops i get frustrated, or spend more hours questing like an honest to God almighty hedge-knight to have even a crumb of her cooch, and even then i have to be weary of accidently stumbling upon a path incident that i cant walk back from and return to later (looking at you Dog princess) and have no choice but to default to a save from hours ago, and not just 1 or 2 from enjoying myself. no, i mean getting dangerously close to getting halfway passed the 4 hour mark. again, i must stress, this is especially bad with mechanics like trying to thicken up your waifu(r)s using food.
this game has the curse of Bungie. an immaculate, pristine and perfectly conceived idea, with execution after execution of these ideas fumbling juuuuust hard enough to be conflicting and divisive both in aggregate and internally to an individual. its deeply frustrating, and while i love this game and its ideas, i wouldnt have executed them in the way Towerfag and co has, and i also cant in good conscience because of that give it a higher score, even if i really... REALLY would have liked to.
im sure there's probably a perfect route where i can get all of what i want out of this game somehow, but as i said, the world being crafted has kind of reached a critical mass of time/effort investment requirement that this has become very hard. maybe in another age i will return to this game and become king of monstergirl-gondor and become the great genetic lynchpin of the whole realm like how most Englishmen are very, very distantly but nonetheless directly related to the first king of England and marry off my daughters to all of you absolute legends who took the time reading this tangent. but today isnt that day.
5/10, it could be so much more
