to my mind, a real VN is indeed just that. visual novel. not some thrown together words but structure. a read that includes imagery. you don't buy a story driven game and then expect no story, unless your a bit of a twat.
Taboo university seems at first glance, and indeed with that name, to be yet another college fuckfest that will have fappers strengthening those wrists, but it is much better.
the plot and writing are mature enough that all signs point to thought and rewrites being used to create a full story pre-production. the characters actually dialogue as young adults and not the early teens most write them as. this leads to an easy read that is interesting, if not outright intriguing for some, and very immersive.
there are a few moments i thought MC would update with someone that didn't happen (avoiding spoilers) that had me scratching my head, but i already look forward to the completed tag and my consequent purchase on steam just on the writing's strength alone.
the imagery is better than their previous game. not a strong one for the imagery side of things myself, i have little to say on the subject, but the imagery was pleasing on the eye. no weird stuff going on and didn't in any way detract from immersion with odd poses or hollywood movie angles with the intimate stuff. all solid.
very surprised at how good this is. perfect design choice as nothing pulls me from the read, and with this being a very well structured and delivered story, a hat doff for the lack of design shenanigans others punt for.
fair enough if the writing is lacking but when it is this well crafted, it doesn't need the distractions.
my initial reservations/expectations were knocked into the stands for a six leaving me humbled.
looking forward to seeing this on my steam library list
