This is a review for Ch.1 v0.7, and if I remember I will update this as game develops. Reviews are interesting, some obvious trolls talking nonsense and some obvious fanboys/girls. But there's some truth spread across the range.
I played this when it was early on in development and nearly stopped. Render quality wasn't great, writing was fine, story was slow but because it was unusual I stuck with it. So... not a great first impression.
Fast forward to v0.7 and wow a lot has changed. Renders are good. Writing is still good. Story is still slow but lots of small things have changed as well as some big things early on. What a surprise when I get to the v0.7 content. I am really hoping this is one of those games that builds and builds in quality. I am hopeful, but not totally sold yet, and so I am hesitating with the star rating.
A quick summary or warning for others.
1) If you want to play out a fantasy as some male chad and be smooth and nail every woman, this isn't the game for you.
2) If you skip over story to get to what you think is the good stuff, this isn't the game for you.
3) If you're too stupid to realise that the protag walking into a woman-dominated world means that he will be a bit sub initially, then don't bother playing.
4) If you like slow burn and character development, and actually read the dialogue, I reckon most people will like this game. I think the haters come in expecting a smash fest because it is harem tagged, have fixed views on what they want from a game, or maybe are just a bit stupid. Not saying you have to be clever to enjoy this game, but I think it helps players to properly 'get it'. Anyway, really hope this keeps improving, the latest content in v0.7 is a major saving grace as they say. V good content after an unusual beginning to a game.
