I really enjoy this game. I played until the end of day 24, when I decided to apply the incest patch and restart. The story gets a very different vibe when suddenly words like "brother", "sister" and "mother" are thrown around. Incest is not my thing, but that doesn't impact the fun I had so far.
In general, I like the story very much. I like that the heaviest moment so far, was Brody throwing a punch in MC's direction and I really hope it doesn't make a turn to the darker side (looking at Acting Lessons). Another positive is, that I am surprised how many fetishes are provided. And even better, the more hardcore ones are optional. Since I am more of the soft side, I can't bring myself to blackmail Bella and I have only started the Discreet Inc. path on the second playthrough. Though the scenes I have seen there aren't as bad as I expected.
Regarding the characters, it feels like all relationships are different, which is a good thing. Favourite main characters are Bella and Rachel.
- Rachel
I didn't think I would like Rachel as much as I do now, as freckles are not at the top of my list. But I enjoyed her character and how she is acting. And even more her enemy Mrs. Steel (is that how she is written?). Here I hope the story on this situation is expanded and the MC gets the chance to put that woman in her place. It would atleast add a bit of drama to the storyline. I'm also looking forward what might come regarding her friends Ana and Alina, since she "shares everything with them" (or something like that. She said that ingame somewhere).
-Bella
The relationship between MC and Bella makes much more sense with the incest patch enabled. I can really see how those to threw insults at eachother when they were little. I feel like dialouge between them is very organic, how they couldn't stand eachother, like a brother is annoyed by their sister. But now that they have both matured it's more like a friendly battle between them. Atleast that is what is conveyed to me. And Bella gradually opening up to the MC is also written out nicely. Again, I haven't played past Day 24 so I might miss some development in her character.
Another thing about this game are the side characters. Having those gives a nice flavour and also makes the world feel less empty (somehow). The top 3 of my favourite side characters are Ana, Alina and Nia (and Riley, Nia and Riley basically share their spot).
-Alina
When I started out, I didn't expect the relationship with her to go that far. I have to admit that I would like to see more of her private life. Some substory to expand her character, even though she is only side character. I like the obedience of Alina, even though I'm not a fan of the brutal sex she craves, but I have to admit it is kind of hot. That is also why it surprises me why she is my favourite side character. I would like to find out more about her, why she has that fetish of being brutally dominated. And maybe a route where you can be less rough and more romantic with her(Yes, I am soft and writing this now I realize that all the side characters are written like they know what they want, which seems to be the MC's dick. So there might not be the option for this softer route).
-Ana and Nia
I have not much to say about them other then that I like their exotic look. That is something that I can absolutely get behind. Again I would like to see more of both of them, since they look quite hot. Nia especially.
Oh and with the incest patch enabled, James creeps me out a bit. But that's just because I can't imagine to be hot for my sister. On the other hand he seems to be a good friend.
-Riley
As for her I could see a substory where you meet her strict family. It might even tie into the main story with this complicated named government division.
All this comes from a person who has only a little idea what amount of work went into this project so far and I don't know if it's my place to make any suggestions at all, but if the author only draws a little inspiration out of my text (or even reads...), that would make me quite happy.
I already suggested a little regarding the side characters, but there is also something general that caught my eye.
In the earlier days there are "animations" during lewd scenes. I know those are just renders switching back and forth, but I think they brought a bit more life into the scene. I'm not sure if it's just my feeling but after a certain point this stopped. I don't know if there is a reason why, but I would like to see this "feature" reintroduced in lewd scenes.
Another thing is, that it sometimes feels like the characters are missing a change in facial expression. Like a character is telling the MC something serious and looks worried and during the dialogue the situation lightens up a little, but the facial expression stays worried for a while longer until a more drastic change in the situation appears (like objects changing in the scene).
This is closely related to the next point, where I feel that in some scenes an additional render would have illustrated the scene more. An example would be the arrival in the apartment on the island. Bella is telling the MC that there are not enough beds, but in the picture only Liza and the mother are visible. Another example is the departure from the holiday. Visible are the families suitcases and described is how they leave with a taxi, enter the plain, leave the plain and the next render shows the family in the living room. I believe another scene would have illustrated the travelling better.
To sum this up, I would like to see more facial expression and sometimes a little more of the world.
Again, I don't know how much work this would entail and I am perfectly fine with how it looks right now, but I am certain the game would improve with that.
As closing words I would like to thank the author of this game for what he is doing. I would definitely put some financial support into this if my current situation would allow it. I am looking very much forward to the days I haven't played yet. I hope there is still a long way and a lot of content left for Sisterly Lust and that it only improves on the way to the end. Thank you to anyone who read this thing and I hope I didn't waste anyone's time.
