RPGM Sword Art Online: The Trap of Breath Concealed Magic [Part 2 v0.702] [Fujino]

Thanks, dude! Glad to see some opinions on the game from outside the SAO bubble. I tend to agree on the weak NTR aspects—I get the feeling that people are so used to seeing Asuna and Kirito as a strong couple that they often overlook how poorly their relationship is actually portrayed in the game.

Also, seems like a little Sinon cult is forming.

In fact, it is. If you're familiar with the SAO universe, you don't pay attention to how awkward and fake Kirito and Asuna's relationship looks in this game. In the first part, their relationship looked quite realistic (except that Asuna was fiercely protective of fat Inoda, but apparently the situation demanded it.). In the second part, I also didn't pay attention until 0.55 - an awkward date and a brothel. Then I decided to try the game over again and realized that all the communication between Asuna and Kirito in the second part is very different from a couple, much less a bride and groom. Rather, it looks like Kirito is in love with Asuna and stalks her, and Asuna keeps Kirito in a friend zone with privileges because he is a good player in the virtual world. At the moment, Asuna's status says that she loves Kirito and is ready to marry him, but damn it, I don't believe it. I think Fujino, in order to justify the "NTR" tag, continues to drag this rubber with this extremely rotten relationship, but in my opinion, everything that happened between Asuna and Kirito ended at 0.55, then it looks like love on ALV, just click the button and it will die.

I mean, if you're 100% knowledgeable about SAO beyond just surface watching the anime, it actually HAS been 'badly written' from the beginning, really...even Part 1, the pair were written as a 'good couple' but not as "Kirito and Asuna good" in the slightest...even putting aside the NTR-convenient issues of tiny dick 0 sexual skill Kirito, which already contradict canon, the mere fact Asuna gave them so much important secretly that it let her to be easily deceived by Inoda is already massively against their Canon SAO relationship which has more retcons than the whole of others in the series put together and constantly expanded to be made even more perfect usually at the cost of the other characters XP Then add to the fact that no matter how bad Asuna would feel for someone she would NEVER have agreed to spend even remotely as much time as she did 'taking care' of Inoda, let alone agreeing to even the most innocent of his requests, it was really 'bad' from the beginning, it was mostly the 'illusion' of them being Kirito and Asuna what enhanced the NTR

All that happened in Part 2 is that Fujino started trying less and less to portray their relationship well by a mix of wanting Part 1 to not have been worthless after the 'soft reset' AND hurrying things up even more after the whole thing with the game surpassing the RPG Maker limits increasing his workload even more and he refusing to split the game again because of his 'corruption' system, and so it feels even less realistic at all even before we start adding the other characters all around XD

not been following updates too closely but any hints on what events it looks like we’re getting this February? My last memory was we were expecting something like irl cosplay outfits and no sex in game so any confirmed events along those lines yet?

Ok, I know nothing about Sword Art Online. Or its characters, and ofc which characters are from there. So I'm completely blind (I even didn't know Kirito or Asuna before play this game) and don't have any idea how these characters follow their original ones. Neither I care though.

As far as I remember I first tried this game last year, and that time I actually was looking for fap material and I hated that how game uses message bubbles to show their moods every time in-game when characters say something. And naturally got bored and didn't finished game.

And some time later, I saw how this thread is busy everytime in forums and decided to try the game again. But I was looking to play it and enjoy, not looking for a fap material. And man, this one is really good! I know we should treat this game as a NTR game, but surprisingly it fails when it comes to NTR. It just feels like some kind of harem game. Still a great game though, with its character dynamics and relationships, this game is easily beats most of other games.

Totally agree that NTR part of the game is weak in chapter 2. I think this is just another pacing issue with updates every month, dev just don't have time to make some decent Kirito x Asuna interactions and this new hotel arc doesn't help at all
