Unity - Completed - Seasons of Loss [v1.0] [NTRMAN]

Now before we go on, please keep in mind that I am not a fan of NTR nor a hater, I'm just a casual enjoyer once in a while. That being said, while I'm here mostly for the art, I am surprised to find myself turned off by the flat characters and how quickly everything goes downhill. I'm guessing if you're a big fan of NTR, especially a slow burn NTR/Corruption, you might be disappointed to find that this game doesn't have that. The only saving grace is the art.

Pros:
-Art.
-Animation.

Cons:
-Characters.
-Plot.
-Quick burn Corruptions (even for NTR standard).

The plot and characters are flat and do not really catch on. Too quickly the game descends into the casual porn. There's not enough branching for the characters. That the mother would flirt not only with teenagers but also with normal adult men.

Absolutely rushed. It isn't like it was established that she was disparate or frustrated. Yeah, she felt bad for him and whatever but she caved instantly. Could have at least given it some time. Seems to be a pattern in some of his titles. Like the one with the housewife and the uncle I believe-where there's practically no scenes with them shown until the end where the guy gets texted a bunch of scenes. Rushed.

A grown woman going from one night of sex with a boy to planning a future together is bit much. The pace of the VN was a bit weird with the writer almost in a hurry to move past the best parts of a Ntr story( slow corruption; dilemma of desiring the depravity despite the 'negative' consequences and the eventual fall from grace).

Leaving that aside, this is a competently produced work by a dev team which constantly churns out new stories. Voice work is hot, and the art is enticing. Definitely worth reading through.

Review has minor spoilers (nothing you wouldn't already know by reading the tags or story description)

Biggest Criticism: Bully fucks the MC's mom, it's a classic NTR story however in my opinion this game also falls into the single biggest trap of this type of NTR story, which is character development. How can you take a loving motherly like character and turn her into your Bully's plaything? Lover? Slut? It's possible to create a loving relationship or even a corruption Style relationship however it must be done properly with proper pacing. This author's style of games are always too short but it's the main reason why this story fails (in my opinion). I've read comics, books, and played games with this similar style of genre and this game fails in the same way that many others do as well. It just makes the corruption or love between mother and bully so unbelievable because of the poor pacing, lack of character development, and poor story decisions. A few quick examples would be the mom sleeping with the bully the very first day she meets him despite admitting that it's a betrayal of her son. No loving mother would do this, desire must be built between the bully and mother for her betrayal to make sense. Second, she accuses the son of being a wimp and having his mom fight his battles, yet SHE's the one that wanted to get involved. This (in my opinion) was a poor reason/character dialog by the mother. Why would she get involved and then blame the son?

Overall Conclusion: All in all, it's a NTRMAN game and if you played one then you played them all. It has similar length, similar images, and animations. It's a decent game but the two stars was for very poor story decisions.

its jus the same plot as the last game that was made.

no son mom love here

just that the mom is stupid enough to fall for the bulyl who CLEARY hurt her son.

art wise is great. No complaints about the graphics or gameplay

its just the plot sucks. sorry

I'm a bit torn about Seasons of Loss, because on one hand we see that NTRMANs production values are clearly improving but the writing has taken a hit. The animation and the visuals are a clear standout to most NTR Media in general but this does not mean that he should be relying on that alone. However, NTRMAN seems to be prioritizing quantity over quality with most of his works being short, and as a consequence the plots are super rushed. When Seasons of Loss was first announced, I was excited because it was going to be a multi part series. Finally, we would be able to see decent character development and plausible plot progression. However, this does not seem to be the case, as the main characters make completely ridiculous decisions and the plot is cliché from start to finish.

Within the first day of the mom meeting the antagonist, she immediately has sex with him and begs for impregnation. Her morals and character flip so fast that by the end she blames and abandons the main character for everything that has happened just because he called her a whore(which she is btw). Ironically the antagonist has been calling her a slut and other derogatory names from the beginning and she literally loves it, which further proves the point that this character development makes no sense.

The H-scenes are fantastic and if they were actually backed with solid reasoning and slow corruption this game would be 5 stars. Funnily enough, NTRMAN describes this series will be medium to heavy in terms of mood, but in reality its more like light to comedic. Multiple times I found myself laughing out loud at how quickly things escalated. I suppose the only reason why it could be considered heavy is because the poor MC is gonna be ruthlessly cucked by all his loved ones for silly reasons one after another for simple shock value and that's it.

In conclusion, I do think the game is worth your time, but it definitely shouldn't be taken too seriously. The H scenes alone are worth the time investment and honestly you could just skip to them with absolutely no consequence to your enjoyment.

(SPOILERS)

Nice ntr game, I can't wait to see how tsugumi will be taken away from satoshi on next update. I have played a couple of NTRMAN titles and this one might be my favourite so far.

It is a short game, but it have a great couple of scenes and I like the fact that you can view the mother's POV after finish the game. It let you know why she fall in love with her son's bully.

Played half-way through and couldn't do it anymore. It's a good game, and it feels like the quality of NTRMAN's games are improving, but this is his darkest story yet, and one that I wasn't even comfortable finishing to the end of the MC's mother's route.

Of course, that makes a GOOD NTR game, but there's just something about this story that was darker, and more cliché than normal coming from NTRMAN; which is something that I can't agree with. Play this if you're REALLY into NTR, because I guess if you're like me and only like some "types" of NTR...well this one might be too much for you as well.

As a connoisseur of NTR porn I decided to go ahead and try this. Part of the lure of NTR is the story, but this was just breakneck "get to fucking the bully as fast as possible". It's jarring to see a game try to set up a story with likeable characters just to immediately throw it away with awful logic.
The mother is just a huge slut that wants a "strong man" to fuck her. Completely out of left field when you are reading the story up to the sex scene from the mother's perspective.
Porn-wise, it has good art.
Story-wise, it's garbage that has the illusion of immersion.
It's short so you can get through it in less than 30 min if you skip. It's not worth endorsing if the story and pacing aren't fixed.

General evaluation
What I Didn't Like!
1-It is the last option for me to prefer multi-hero games.
I don't like games with 2-female protagonists, I don't care if there is only a female protagonist, even if it's the best game on the site.
3-People can't be anyone they want in real life anyway. It's much more painful to be a loser in the game and in a painful situation they don't want.
4-Whoever is responsible for the producer, creator or writer of the game, so-called you can enjoy your own mother being fucked by the person you hate the most, but not everyone is like that. It's a shame that you don't make a fiction that will save her mother before her character falls into this situation.
I say 5-game, but this visual novel is not involved in anything, we just watch it. If ntr happens to someone else's own lover, spouse, mistress, or someone else, it's okay, except for that character's own family. otherwise ntr hurts a lot. nomore ntr.
6- If the dialogues in visual novels are excessively long and unnecessary, they become boring and it is necessary to skip.
7-game puts an excessive load on the computer, although there are options, such a visual novel voiceover, this load should be lightened.

What I liked!
1-I like the Milf character. others are bad.
2- the animations are very successful.
3-It is positive that it has an anime style and voiceover.

The game is great in terms of art and design but needs a lot of improvement especially the story because the relationship of mother, son and bully is too fast. I like ntrman's work, hope ntrman can strengthen his game again in the future because later more ntr haters and other people will find this game ... GOOD LUCK NTRMAN FOR YOUR NEXT GAME

Update: Downgrading to 2, it runs just terrible and that seems to be getting worse. Occasional freezes or slow downs. No excuse for needing that kind of machine performance with this style of game and art unless it's poor or malignant coding (I don't suspect the latter but I do wonder about the former).

The MILF art is great, it's a Unity game that allows unrestricted text fast forward, and it has a gallery, it's got some positives.
The writing... not the strong point in this one. The performance, the game runs ... awkward. It stuttered/shut down at points. The art of the males... wow, I think maybe I'd rather have silhouettes. I'm not an NTR fan but normally it's not a deal breaker either, but damn here, if she's gonna F someone other than the MC at least don't make them so ugly/goofy it makes me have trouble focusing on the art of her, the real reason I'm playing.
I want to say 2 or 2.5 but I'll round up to 3, in hopes of more of the MILF art (and less of the goofy males in the future).

0.7 Schoolmate:
So, to balance out the previous, failed attempt of an extreme NTR moment, the developer implemented the option of a lovey-dovey route. Hopefully, it will feature NTR in the future, otherwise he has to change his name to "1/2NTRMAN" or "NTRMAN, unless I'm not".

The other half is a blackmail setup that's immediately forgotten because it's too hard to write. She's a slut. The End. Man, I really wonder how the next chapter or game looks like. Will the next woman be a slut just like that? Who knows! Everybody before that surely was. NTR, man.

0.4 Mother:
Hm. From the son's perspective, everything is as basic as you'd expect and that's quite underwhelming or becomes annoyingly obvious at times. The revelation is quite 0% to 100% (caring mother -> slut who doesn't like you) and since the son is as baffled as the player I suppose, I'm not sure where the developer wants to go with this.
The mother's perspective makes a lot more sense in the beginning and I'm actually surprised by how smoothly the first sexual switch is displayed. But it kind of goes from there - the essential purity vs. depravity dynamic is mostly missing and the revealing moment remains poor/out of place.

The "inner slut" approach can be a nice asset but it shouldn't be the entire story, that's lazy! It works if she lives two lives, it works when the son becomes a necessity of it, it works as just an element of corruption or can work as a character background, but this alone does not form an erotic story. Or at least a creative one. It's just things we've been seeing before and maybe even will, over and over again, from a certain someone who didn't have enough clarity or patience for a truly good Adelaide Inn.

Visuals are still good enough to reach 3/5, voice acting's there, presentation, gallery, a little wink at his other game. I mean he tries, I guess.

I agree with everyone on this one. The game was rushed and I felt so bad for the kid because his mom disowned him for calling her out on her actions and not being a man about it. My expression was "well that escalated quickly" because it was like that situation happened in 2 seconds and 10 seconds later she on her own thing. Had me questioning well if you didn't raise him right what makes you so sure the next one will turn out right. What if the husband do the same shit the last husband did, pack up and leave. Leaving her to raise the child all by herself. That child would grow up to be exactly like the last one. As a matter of fact she never knew how her child feels, she dosen't know how to raise children therefor she don't deserve to be a parent. I love NTRs work, but him and his team droped the ball on this one. I hope they finish it quickly and move on to the next game.

Amazing treat from the master of NTR. The animations are constantly improving, the plot is tight, the mom is sexy, the bully is surprisingly complex. I wish it had better proof reading, but other than than: Perfect.

yeah i pretty much agree with the first review here. Adelaide is truly a gem and from a personal standpoint , NTRMAN has been missing with these recent entries. I dont understand going after a new formula with the success that Adelaide had, this game feels rushed and just a total drag. I barely read the dialogue bc it was just so boring. Bring back husband being into sharing his wife and she slowly gets into it. Im pretty sick of this young kid slut mom angle its so stupid. Still love NTRMAN but i write this review bc ik hes capable of such better work, this story is just unplayably stupid even by hentai vn standards

As usual, NTRMAN’s art and animations keep improving, but the core issue remains the same: The corruption is too fast. As noted by other people, the woman falls into depravity too quickly. The only game that does this well is Urban Demons, but that’s not NTR. If he made a game with really slow burn corruption along with this quality of art, it would be GOTY.

Dear reader,

as a person who is into NTR (cuckolding) lifestyle IRL, I cannot tell you that the story was good Unfortunately it develops at the super fast paces and it's very illogical sometimes.

I liked his previous games especially The Adelaide Inn (10/10, one of the best games in the history by this moment), but this one is lacking realism.

The art is still awesome though Nice job!

I hope the story will be rewritten and more things will be added. It will make the final product including other chapters a masterpiece!

Thank you for reading my feedback and taking everything into consideration

Sincerely Yours,
Sasha

I would say give it a try but didn't like the game as much as other works of ntrman. This one feels rushed , the art is good but story and characters are weaker than his other games I hope he finishes it quick and moves on to the next game
