Review for [v0.11]
Honestly, a fantastic beginning to an AVN, and I think the best contributor to it's quality is that it isn't over-enthusiastic. It isn't promising us the world or delivering this amazing and in-depth beginning that is totally unsustainable for a full release. The expectations are set, and they're contained, which gives me hope that this won't be one of the dozens of initially good projects where the development slows to an absolute crawl, or is swiftly abandoned after the dev realises they bit off more than they could chew.
Now, what do I mean by these expectations? The story is set that you're a small-time pickpocket who ends up accidentally killing a noble and ends up replacing him for personal gain. This isn't some "omg you're the chosen one, born to defeat the ultimate evil!" It's "you're a crook who gets lucky". The good news as well is that in a medieval setting, his position DOES allow him more privileges than most, so his actions in many circumstances are valid. They work for the world. Many women would want to cozy up to a man who's the son of a baron (even if only the third son). It also gives potential for the future, with the chance for interacting with other baronies, royalty, as well as the family of the man he's impersonating. You see the potential for the future, and so you find what is happening NOW as interesting.
Speaking of the now,what's on display is a good package. Is it amazing? No. But I don't think it claims to be. Airplane isn't Schindler's List, but that doesn't mean it isn't an amazing film. It (for the time being) absolutely meets the expectations. The description I have is: simple, yet effective. Visually it's good, the girls are hot, dialogue isn't bad, the choices make sense, the choice system is easy to comprehend, it's a solid package.
I am happy to see this come out, and within it's first 6 months it's doing well. I hope that the progress for the AVN continues and it gets the support it needs, and I recommend anyone else who's looking for a project to support to support this one (obviously, I have literally zero personal interest, I am just a dude who reads porn games). If it fails I'm certainly gonna be disappointed.
