RPGM - Completed - The Genesis Order [v1.05] [NLT Media]

While it can be quite long and windy, this game is high quality and interesting. The gameplay while not unbelievable is quite interesting and some of the puzzles are a delight. While I hoped for slightly more freedom and harder puzzle possibilities that could have come from that, the game was satisfying to play through

This is my first disappointment in adult games. At first I didn't believe all bad reviews but indeed they turned out to be truthful. I am a fan of LE and ToN and comparing to them TGO is trash.
1. Can't say much about plot. It is there, a bit boring and worse than in ToN

2. I personally dislike the maid girl and the nun. They are useless after the 1st third of the game and are unappealing.

3. Most other characters are dull and poorly written. Unlike in ToN here I didn't care about the LIs.

4. With the great number of sex scenes comes the repeatability and lack of imagination from the authors. From time to time I had to skip boring sex scenes in order to return to plot.

5. No sense of achievement that you conquered the girl because she is eager to have sex almost since your first meeting.

6. Awful dialogues which drove me mad. Constant unbearable repetitions of phrases "You're so tight" and "So good" during sex.

7. Lastly, that's not really a drawback but rather a personal attitude:
By the 3rd game I got sick of how vanilla sex in NLT is:
Each LI is an absolute virgin even milfs and actual moms. The girls always squirt after sex and the MC always cums after them. His cumshots are always excessive as if he has been saving for weeks.
There is a sex virus in the world, females are obsessed with sex, yet it concerns only the MC since the girls jump only on his cock and not on random guys from the streets. Like always the MC is the only guy with a dick in the world.

1 extra star is for good models, sex scenes and animations.

And of course I have to give credit to NLT. They manage to produce good amount of content delivering it in time according to the timetable twice a month.

Enjoyed it
the game was fun,
animation is excellent detailed smooth, mini games are fun
recommend to play also played treasure of Nadia kinda hard to compare it as you know first one was a masterpiece

I've never written a review but this game is so exceptionally awful that it must be done. The MC is totally unlikable, the story is shit, and you will be railroaded constantly. Do not play this game unless you enjoy predictable story beats and a narrative that has zero substance. Total waste of time.

TLDR;
This is a porn game where I was actively cheering for the MC to never have sex again because he is as pathetic as he is incompetent.

---

The MC is the most cocky fool on the planet, but does not back it up at all. He constantly asks like he is 14 years old while talking about how he can't relate to another character because he 'grew up' and she did not. He constantly lies to his boss and doesn't do his actual job while complaining that she never listen to him and that he is a great detective. He can't manage to keep his mouth shut about his cases (that aren't even his, because, again, he isn't doing his actual job). He constantly acts like he is the best thing in the world, but balks when a women wants to fuck him. MC is all flaws and no good qualities. Our character should be a balance (he also thinks completely with his dick 100% of the time, but we can forgive that one considering the game), but the writers of this game have no idea what balance is. Let me give them a hint. It is not "Say he has good qualities, but only have him act on the bad ones."

If you can ignore 99% of what the MC says, he sex is good, the other characters are fun, and the plot is a good time. The gameplay is what you expect from the devs. Be prepared to use the in game hints a lot.

*edit* Fucking Christ. Dropping this from three to two based entirely on the MC being even worse than I thought. He literally assaults his boss, yells at his boss, and is in general someone how would be not only fired, but blackballed at best, or in jail at worst. Of course they still fuck because the writer of this game is an incel red piller. I can't think of anyone else who would think this MC isn't the worst person in any game these devs have created. Still no redeeming qualities, and he is even worse at his job than I previously thought.

I love this game because the puzzle element of this game is really fun! I would probably play this game if there were no lewd elements in it! And that's why I like to play this game when I get bored with typical renpy dating sims. It's so refreshing! :3 As for the lewd scenes, in the first quarter of the game I always felt they could be better, and bang! They're actually starting to get really nice, around the 25% mark! (so wait for it if you're someone who is not satisfied with the quality of lewd scenes <3)

The same evaluation I made for Nadia applies to Genesis Order, also because the games are practically identical and follow the continuation of the same story. What I like about NTL is that it respects the players by creating each chapter with a story that begins and ends. The players are not left with a story in the middle and you can easily start from the chapter you want. Recommended product.

Genesis Order is the third game in the NLT Media game series and its the best one yet. Many great sex scenes, some of the best for any porn game. The story was intriguing with always something interesting happening. The characters are pretty one dimensional, it's not a deep game, but the love interests are still interesting. I liked the protagonist, William, more than I did Brad and Henry from the previous games; he is more mature and serious.

Now this is a 10/10 game for me, but there is one major bad part to this game, and I think it's the reason why Genesis Order has a lower score on this site compared to Treasure of Nadia and Lust Epidemic. The gameplay is slightly different from previous games, much less intuitive and more akin to point 'n click games where you are constantly stuck and backtracking to find out how to progress the story. I like playing with a guide, but I can see how going in blind would be frustrating. An example: to get the final cutscene you need to get all collectibles, and some of them are hidden behind invisible walls you would never think to look behind.

Overall its one of the best porn games out there, but the gameplay drags it down, even though the previous games had fun gameplay.

The Genesis Order is a great game, it had everything to be a 5-star game like its predecessor, but the gameplay and the inconsistency of the protagonist and the story are the worst aspects of this game.

STORY 4/5:
The story consists of a detective (MC) who investigates the death of a rich man, which then extends to the investigation of the Eclipse Guild and Madelyn (the antagonists of ToN). The story has many inconsistencies, but it has its good side.
POSITIVE:
• The relationships are more direct and realistic. In some cases, if the girl and the protagonist are attracted to each other, they will have sex without any provocation or "crumbs of sex", of course, there is still that, but it is with specific girls.
• The story is MUCH longer than ToN.
• It has depth because of ToN, which makes the story richer.
• Has interaction with Henry, Diana and Tasha (ToN characters)

INCONSISTENCIES:
• The protagonist is 27 years old, but he is treated like a teenager and he acts like one;
• He is portrayed as a strong and muscular guy, but he can't climb a wall, push a block of hay or lift a small stone without having to invent something extraordinary to do so;
• He is also portrayed as a great detective, but he can never keep his mouth shut and right at the beginning, all the girls and characters already knew what he was investigating;

GAMEPLAY 1/5:
The gameplay is the same as ToN, only more linear and with more grind. There is absolutely nothing good about the gameplay.
• The protagonist can't DO ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING without having to create an item or something extraordinary, for example: the girls made a mess in the kitchen? You have to create a cleaning product to help them, then you go there to collect items that are annoying to find.
Spiders upstairs? You have to create something to kill them. Then you go to the city to hunt for these items that are hard to find. And this cycle repeats itself throughout the ENTIRE GAME! I barely got 2% of the way through the game and I already find myself frustrated with this. In the previous game, this was very cleverly integrated and was part of the game's theme, but in TGO, this is TOO MUCH!
• In the previous game, there were MUCH MORE PUZZLES, but in this game, which has a detective theme, there are almost none.
• Repetition of the treasure collection mechanics, as in the previous game, has nothing to do with the theme of this game.

PROTAGONIST 3/5:
In terms of personality, he is the same as Henry from ToN, nothing special. However, the negative points are his previously mentioned inconsistencies.

CHARACTERS 5/5:
The girls and other characters are all realistic, diverse, with different personalities and if we take away the disgusting grind of this game, they are interesting to interact with and what brings depth is the previous game.

SEX SCENES/GRAPHICS 5/5:
The graphics and sex scenes of this game are excellent and of a very high level, NLT knows how to do an excellent job in these parts.

SETTING 5/5:
The city is well made, detailed, every corner has its details, and there are also small missions that can be done, along with secrets and collectibles.

WOULD I RECOMMEND IT?
I definitely recommend it.
However, you'll have to REALLY like this style of gameplay, otherwise you'll get bored of it quickly.

The game has great graphics, that's the only redeeming quality.
The characters are shallow, they jump into bed without any build up.
There's no game play other than just moving between 6--7 locations and watching the scenes.
It's in essence a VN disguised as a game.
And to top it off, they choose to put HORRENDOUS mini-games that can't be skipped and can't be passed with less than stellar vision. (The shooting gallery specifically )
You play until a certain point and cannot proceed.
Never again.

This one is honestly kind of ehhhh, but my issues with it are entirely personal preference. Objectively its very good.

This comes from a series of exceptional games, (all of which I have purchased on steam) so my review will largely be addressing where I felt the game fell short in terms of series expectations, so if I come across as excessively negative I apologize.

From a technical standpoint the game is great. It runs well and I experienced no major bugs, it was a very solidly built game.

Content wise... I'm not as keen. I don't like church stuff, at least when it comes to erotic or story content, and while this game actually has very little to do with real world Christianity, the superficial presentation of its content are all very much catholic themed. You've got nuns and priests and a lot of your time is spent inside a gothic church discussing demons, sins and the comparative ethics of angels versus demons. I found it boring.

In addition, this game's atmosphere is quite dreary, you spend most of the game in oppressive environments - churches, gothic mansions, old gnarled woods, swamps, caves, hell, etc. While not a series first, it was certainly less fun.

Character wise this is one of the weakest. The MC looks like he's in his mid to late 30's, and sometimes the way he's depicted gives him a really weird uncanny valley look. I dont remember ever thinking he looked good, usually he looked sort of neutral and in some cases very ugly.
The girls were also a mixed bag, while we have some of the most attractive girls in the series, we also got Nellie who looks like she smells like stale cigarette smoke.

The writing was also weaker in general. The author was clearly focused on the plot, but the individual character writing suffered as a result. Very little of the writing was dedicated to the inherent drama or weirdness of what was happening to the characters on a personal level. Relationships just sorta jumped forward without any real build up or flow, and almost none of the characters talked to each other about what the dramatic shifts in their relationships meant for them going forward. In fact most of the relationships werent very romantic at all, I'd say only 2 really had any sort of real romance behind them and even then it was pretty weak. The complete lack of dramatic or romantic tension left the eventual sex scenes feeling meaningless and empty. This was almost more like a casual sex simulator than a harem game. Significant portions of the female cast dont even stick around after the game is over.

For a game with its origins in relationship based harem and pregnancy endings I found this game to be a disappointing deviation.

P.S - oh god I forgot about the minigames, the minigames were awful. That shooting minigame was just terrible, where it showed the target had almost no relationship to where the hit box actually was. and the imps THE IMPS, ffs those mf's were so janky that even with knowing the solution I ended up having to spend hours and hours on those puzzles, purely due to the blue imps not taking my inputs.

The Genesis Order is a thrilling blend of mystery, adventure, and romance, packed with stunning visuals and an engaging storyline. The characters are well-developed, and the puzzles keep you hooked. The immersive world and captivating plot twists make it a must-play for fans of the genre!

"I absolutely love this game! The graphics, gameplay, and overall experience are just amazing. Every time I play, I get completely immersed in the world, and I can't get enough of it. The developers have done a fantastic job creating an engaging and exciting environment that keeps players coming back for more.

One thing I really appreciate is how smooth the controls are, making it easy to enjoy every moment. The updates so far have been great, adding new features, characters, and challenges that make the game even more fun. I hope the developers continue to release more updates and add even more exciting content.

It would be awesome to have more links to different versions of the game, including special editions or early access to new features. More game modes, maps, and customization options would also make the experience even better.

I truly appreciate all the effort that goes into maintaining and improving the game. Please keep up the great work and continue to bring us more updates. I can't wait to see what’s next! Looking forward to more exciting content, and I’ll definitely keep playing and supporting the game!"

It's hard to rate it low, just due to the amount of work and polish, but my interest is waning. These used to be the gold standard, but the formula is getting pretty stale at this point.

Top tier models and animation have always been the hallmark here. They're still pretty good - and plentiful, as always - but they're starting to fall behind. It's not enough to carry the game anymore.

I don't mind some thoughtful grind in a game at all, but they haven't done anything to innovate here. It's the same, over and over, and tedious. I sometimes do prefer this RPG format over a straight up visual novel, but the problem is they often play out like a kinetic novel - you have freedom to explore, but it's just a checklist to move to the next scene, and there's no deviation is story. There are no meaningful choices.

On a more subjective note, the characters are generally all shallow and unappealing, except for some of your 'close friends' which do have a little more thoughtfulness and organic growth. Generally though, there's no real character development or relationships, it's just a paint-by-numbers transactional thing where you are owed the next sex scene. And the variety of personalities generally boils down to either a bitch (boring), or a child-like idiot (gross).

So, what you have is a really lengthy game that is entirely dependent on the quantity and quality of visuals. It offers little else. I'm not saying it isn't worth playing, but a talented team like this should be capable of so much more, and the failure to evolve is becoming pretty disappointing.

Worst in the series. Characters just seem to get more and more stupid as time goes on. None of them act like they are really in a dangerous situation with a demon, none of them have a sense of urgency, and there is no reason for THIS main character in specific to "get ahead" as much as he does other than "main character syndrome".

He's a complete MORON who literally thinks with his dick and can't do the most BASIC of jobs properly, yet can't be fired because "plot armor". The author is either such a moron that they think this character is actually smart - based on how everyone keeps saying how smart the character is IN SPITE of his basic imbecility - or it's intended yet played as if it isn't.

Just... a terrible addition to the series in general. Also, can the focus of the sex scenes be the fucking SEX instead of the goddamn cumshots?

There is more to sex than your stupid ass cumshot fetish!

designs are 10-10 but the story is worst, next game just make some interesting stories, this is so boring, just make a game like summertime saga but with your design it would be 10-10 or desert stalker has a great story too this shit has just repeatable story and why the fuck main charachter doesnt want any girl its so stupid to play that character

TL/DR: Vapid, fetch-quest riddled, laughably sanguine title. It is pretty, but the characters are super-generic and feature almost no personality. A bot would be able to write a more interesting story if it was only allowed to use a 20th of the English language. The puzzles were fun.

+ Smooth and beautiful animations.
+ Great multi-girl animations
+ Puzzles were dope.
+ UI is decent.
+ Lot of things to do.
+ Meaningful sense of progression
+ Getting sexual power-ups from artifacts is kinda fun concept. It was not used very creatively though.

- The characters were hollow and uninteresting.
-MC was a shrimp except for his mega-cock. Amusingly, it is still the most manly of the various reedy-wimps this set of developers usually feature in their titles.
- Despite being a lil hommie, the LI all praised the protagonist constantly for being jacked and manly despite most of them being 30-50 % bigger than the lad. Maybe the devs were going for a mommy/son vibe with a lot of characters and he was their biggest best special boy? Either way, it didn't work for me, as the options were either 1) suspending my disbelief about the constant praise. 2) Leaning into a the m/s kink I'm not into.
- Not sure what the point of making the game "open world" was when the progression was painfully linear.
- No choices. This is a killer for an RPG on its own TBH.
-MC has basically no personality.

typical NLT harem quality game imo.
would recommend unless you're bothered by MC having a large dick.
going back to finish the last 5-10% or whatever. i keep returning to see more content. it's not a super high priority, but i always check back a few times a year to see how it's been progressing and enjoy the new content.

This game has become a real pain! I want to go back to the first game in the series to explain why I feel this way. Lust Epidemic was the best game in this series, but with each new game, the quality has dropped; I suspect this is due to commercial concerns. Each new game has become worse than the last.

What was great about Lust Epidemic? The story was cohesive, the writing was better, and the game mechanics didn’t just aim to artificially extend playtime. Instead, they drew the player into the game, moving beyond a simple visual novel experience to offer short yet effective gameplay. The mechanics didn’t require needlessly long journeys, avoided artificially extending the game time, and provided a smooth, enjoyable experience without causing fatigue.

Now let’s talk about Treasure of Nadia: The story was still strong, but this time, the addition of crafting and treasure-hunting mechanics became somewhat tedious in the later stages. Still, they managed to deliver an enjoyable experience overall by the end. However, when it comes to the latest game, things have completely gone off the rails. The story is so scattered that following the events has turned into a chore. I'm sure most players eventually started skimming through the dialogue. I found it difficult to finish the game, and I don’t even know how the story ends because I was so bored that I skipped most of the dialogue.

The "I need this, go find it for me" cliché in this game has reached a new level. The treasure-hunting mechanic introduced in Treasure of Nadia feels like it was added here just for the sake of using it, as if they thought, "We already made it; might as well use it again." I've completely lost interest in the story, and I doubt I'll play the next game. A series can only go downhill this much. Instead of improving with each installment, they’ve somehow managed to make it worse every step of the way.
