I don't know who really needs this, VN is out for quite a while, but i might as well give my 2 cents. I played only netori path since NTR isn't my thing, so if you are looking for an input for this particular thing, that's the part i will be talking about.
Game got some good things going for it, but is severely undermined by couple things that murder it's potential in cold blood. There are issues with writing, dialogues and characters but somehow the thing that was missing the most was Caring despite the name of the game.
The way i see it netori very broadly falls into two categories, either the character enjoys the fact of stealing and going behind the partner, or he geniunely loves/cares for the person and it just happens that the person is already taken and the rest is nature taking it's course. With this game it kinda falls into the cracks in-between, where it happens in plain sight and partners don't really care, and MC doesn't really have any strong feelings or care for other girls. There are some EXTREMELY feeble attempts at times like Holly confiding that Carlo spends too much time at work, but they are so incredibly watered down it's barely notable. Even after you get everyone pregnant MC's only reaction can be summed by "huh, that's neat i guess". Everyone is a complete unhinged slut sleeping with anyone around so it's kind of hard to care about characters and their relationships under those circumstances.
With biggest issue out of the way, second problem is the writing, which i can only describe as juvenile. It's not a super short game and i think i could count a show of intelligence and emotions under 10 times total, the rest of times it falls under dreaded "hehe, fuck that's hot" banner. Language itself is not pleasurable to read, most conversations and thoughts are extremely surface level and it's overall very underwhelming as a story.
There are also issues with some content being there for what feels like no reason, the subway girl, the prostitute we helped to get into the college, the goddamn Council (why is it even a thing?). Game's structure with 3 separate paths also becomes an issue with characters having to be plain enough to be molded into 3 different ones based on what you pick and some dialogues making no sense since they setup another route, instead it would be much better to focus on one route but do it much better.
Visuals are fine, animations are fine, scene direction is bad, sounds are not amazing but nice, so i don't have issues with technical side.
That said, once you realise how shallow this entire VN is, it's still a decently enjoyable experience, while netori implementation is in my opinion among the worst i've seen due to aforementioned issues, the genre itself is so scarsely populated that it still kinda worth to read.
