    This is my first review ever on this site, and I'm quite disappointed that it's negative, but from my perspective, it's absolutely necessary. It has such absurd flaws that I wonder if the developer isn't a complete novice in the field and slapped this game together in less than a week (or less). My review is going to sound hateful, but I have some points to highlight to support my point.

    - The movement is weird; the character seems to slide on the ground.

    - The clothing clipping is horrible; the more you play, the more your clothes clip onto your skin.

    - At the beginning, there are quite a few choices in the personality options, but nothing works for the colors. Why did they even include them?

    - The fights just aren't finished.

    But for me the worst is the use of AI, and mind you, I usually don't care, but this is not possible. The images of the NPCs during dialogue are AI (and what's more, they don't match their models). And even the voices are done by AI, and on Eleven Labs, in my opinion, because the Japanese of the NPCs is horrible, you can feel the AI trying so hard to speak Japanese, but their English accent takes over, which is what made me personally leave the game.
    And I'm not talking about the choice options being cut off because they're too long, the main character opening his mouth when he walks, we don't know why, the NPCs with Looney Tunes-esque animations when you talk to them. I couldn't last more than 15 minutes because of these flaws, and yet it's marked as "Completed" and in version 1.12, I think, so it looks more like a game in the prototype stage, and I'm still weighing my words. Once again, this is my first review and I think the dev thought that making a NSFW game shouldn't be too hard and that people wouldn't be demanding but if I myself am a dev and at the same time a consumer and assume that the NSFW community wouldn't be demanding and provide this kind of game it is the ultimate proof that this game was not made out of passion and it's a shame because we are sorely lacking in real NSFW RPG games.

    This one is a mess of AI slop that is pretty much unplayable. Here is the list of things that I noticed in my admittedly brief time with this:

    - Models and animations are sloppy with bad clipping.

    -AI generated voices that slip from one accent to another when reading lines. The second character I ran into sounded like she was speaking back and forth French and Japanese.

    -Choices are cut off after the first couple words of description making it so you don't know what you are even selecting.

    -Movement feels terrible with the normal walk being very slow, the run sucking up stamina stupidly fast even when not in combat, while stamina recovery is unbearably slow.

    -Game froze/crashed in the 3rd dialogue I ran into as soon as the choices popped up.

    This was what I noticed in the first 15 minutes. I didn't bother to try again, promptly got my steam refund, and felt the need to warn others to just stay away.

    Sloppy and awful! I was dropped into the middle of a total mess. At first, talking to an NPC gave me a directional guide, but then it just disappeared, leaving me with no idea where to go. The whole thing feels so bare-bones—the physics are terrible, the controls are clunky, and there aren't even any sensitivity settings. Characters' bodies and hair clip right through their clothes, and the voice acting is just painful; it sounds like a bad AI or someone who's terrible at Japanese. I couldn't even stand to play for more than 15 minutes. I can't imagine how anyone could have the patience to stick with this until the end.
