Is there anything, anything at all, that you guys didn't like in the game/story?
I've got two minor complaints. I'm sure I'll still love the game even if Weird does the absolute opposite of what I'd like to see, but sometimes it's good to vent at length like a freaking madman.
#1: Power/evolution level increasingly seems to trump everything else and that's a little boring.
Superhuman has in my opinion the best fight scenes in any VN and it isn't even close. If I had to name my absolute favorites, I'd go with Michael vs Oscar, the MC vs Danica, Michael vs Leigong, and the MC vs Valravn. One thing these fights all have in common is that they're all mismatches of some sort. The MC and Michael have to strategize, get creative, and show great resolve and perseverance to get the win against what are basically stronger opponents. They outwit and outhustle because they can't outpower. A big part of what makes those battles so enjoyable is not so much the outcome as it is seeing just how our guys manage to pull off the improbable after setbacks and much suffering.
On the other hand, fights where the tide turns because someone evolves and gets a sudden surge of power seem a little gimmicky/overly convenient and less interesting to me. I sadly even have to include the Klaus fight in my lower tier fight list even though it gave us some important information about the process of evolution and the flashback scene is absolutely amazing storytelling.
Level 5 superhumans (not to mention the Numbered) seem so powerful that it is essentially impossible for them to be defeated by someone who isn't a near peer. I can accept that the MC can't beat Ella until he gets much stronger because she is such an integral part of the story that she can't just vanish like Jake or Danica, but it's equally hard for me to imagine the MC defeating any of the captains or Nico any time soon. The power gap between them is almost unfathomably immense at this point. We saw just how poorly Duncan fared against Ella even though he is just about the hardest working, most powerful level 3 imaginable. Even that one tough monster from the last update would've been far too difficult for the MC without Nico's help likely regardless of how he approached the fight.
When the MC and his friends have caught up evolution-wise, hopefully we'll get back to strategy, creativity, and perseverance winning fights, but in the near term this seems like the game's Age of Power.
#2: Porn and harem logic gets in the way of the game's characterization at times.
I think Superhuman has generally great character development. Everyone in the game has a backstory and a personality. They generally do things that make sense for who they are as people. Some like Ella have rather complex motives and even villains like Klaus tend to retain a measure of their humanity.
That's why I find it a little jarring that the MC's ladies tend to be more or less OK with his slutty ways. Really, what I would like to see is a range of reactions based on who the character is. It makes total sense that Liz wouldn't care too much about fidelity because she doesn't care very much about most things. Tiffany is the complete opposite of a romantic. Angelina certainly doesn't need to become a jealous yandere because her relationship with the MC has always been on the casual side. On the other hand, it would make total sense to me that Alice, Amber, Emily, and Mia might want something more than to just be another member of the harem given their personalities. With Alice, it made sense initially she wouldn't mind the MC sleeping around given she was so reluctant to become the MC's girlfriend because she's spread so thin and isn't the most romantic type, but I think it would make sense for her attitude to change now that the relationship has grown more serious.
I'd love to see some of the characters demand fidelity and get furious if they find out the MC's been cheating. It would add a completely different element to the game. Imagine a faithful MC going on romantic dates with his special someone or an unfaithful one trying to cover up his tracks to avoid being discovered. I think it'd make the characters seem more real, give the relationships more depth, and be fun as well.
