As someone who doesn't like Fetish Locator, I think this game/VN can be much more 'friendly' for all audiences.
I didn't like the idea of Fetish Locator at all. Sure it has its charm and that's why the game is so successful and the developers have a more than good fan base supporting them. But, it wasn't a game for me.
This game, on the other hand, looks like it will be. Maybe there won't be as many fetishes as in the other game, but it looks like there will be something for almost every taste. What strikes me is that it seems that the fetishes will be more because the characters want them, rather than to earn points in a mobile app. Something more natural and genuine, perhaps. So I get the impression that the player will have more freedom to accept/reject certain fetishes. For now, of the fetishes mentioned the only one I don't like very much is bondage. But I don't expect to like all the fetishes that the game will include, obviously.
The investigation part seems very attractive to me. If it can be developed well... It can turn out to be something really good.
Another positive point is the MC. I didn't like the Fetish Locator protagonist either. Well, the MC in this game seems quite the opposite and looks like he won't be intimidated by anyone and has guts. And indeed, it looks like there can be some good romances and love. Maybe this is what catches my attention the most.
Anyway... Like I said, as someone who doesn't like Fetish Locator, this game really looks like it will be able to appeal to a more general audience, including fans of the previous game. I wasn't expecting that to be the case, but I'm genuinely very interested.
And Phoebe, damn... I can already see a nice
Mommy/Incest roleplay with her.
