I'm having a hard time getting into this game. Thought I'd pop in here to ask if this is one of those "just get past the early game, it gets better" scenarios.
Specifically I'm interested in a character driven experience. A good example would be SEQUEL Awake which had dialog points all throughout the maps as well as the base of operations between the characters. I haven't really seen much of this so far. I have a few girls in my party but I hardly know a thing about them because they never have a chance to say very much.
So judging by the fact you said "I have a few girls in my party". Iirc there are 9 girls (& 2 guys but who cares can't do anything with 'em) that you can get as your "Main Group" aka party. All of which have multiple character story quests & scenes. Some more than others.
Then you have 16 girls for Central, 31 for Non-Humans, 32(?) for Monster Girls, 31(?) for Elves, 28 for Begus, 20 for Others, & 4 for Dorgania (all of which have quests of some kind). If you look at the walkthrough there are 39 pages of quests. You can also get dozens of these girls pregnant which most likely will have some sort of meaning near the ending of the game or even now (I personally haven't seen anything yet so it might not be included at the current patch).
Idk man... I think the game is going pretty well for not being anywhere (assuming) near complete. Even for an almost complete game (assuming again) it'd be pretty damn good since most games release with almost no content.
