I just played the game(v0.27), I waited until good amount of content piled up. I followed game development before the release. Also, I tried to read some reviews occasionally. There were/are many people bash character models and game as far as I can see in these threads. Too vanilla(no incest,beastialty especially when you think about early NLT works), models looks plastics etc. Honestly, it got me worried because I loved ToN and Lust Epidemic.
After, I played the game my I noticed many of my fear were not true at all. I was having very bad day when I played too which is rise my mood pretty well(ty NLT). But, there are somethings I didn't like at all and somethings I liked. And they are intertwined with each other.
Things I liked:
1-Models are mainly nice. I am into milfs and game delivers pretty good milf models; Heather, Carol, Kimura, Nellie(she is hot af). Plus, Melissa and Erica are good looking.
2-A really good vanilla content. I understand people here because I miss good old incest themes in the games but vanilla content in the game is pretty nice, for me at least. Especially when you think amount of cuck/ntr shitty content popping up everywhere these days, this game is a blessing.
Actually, when, you think about it there are not that vanilla moment in the game too. Fucking streamer chick in front of her biggest fan, banging Nellie right after learned she is Father Solomon ex-wife and he learned Tasha might be his daughter.
I cannot blame NLT or any other content creator for incest and beast content to be honest. They are in this job for money and patreon, paypal are full of shit. They are responsible for why we get so much cuck content because it is only kink they didn't ban. I personally wanted to see hot incest theme too, like NLT did in the past, but when we consider this things NLT doing incredible job with their current content.
3-Animations and renders are eye catching. I don't have any problem with stills but animations greatly improve your immersion.
4-Quailty of production. Nothing bad can be said here I believe.
5-Finally MC can cum inside girls in early game and not waiting for %90 of the game to be finished for some creampie. Not a fan of forced cumshots and this is good change.
6-Funny writing of some characters/scenes. For exp, Hannah didn't know what bukkake is but now she is taking load of semen on her face every scene.
Now things I disliked:
1-Models. Like I said, I am into milf and I am pretty sure many NLT fans too. Younger character models off putting. Hannah is okayish but others just nope for me. Especially Chloe and Judy can stay away from me. Their facial expressions gave me nightmares.
Also, for the love of god why all milf have saggy tits? We can get perfect 3D looking younger characters but when it comes to milfs it needs to be all saggy and realistic for some reason. Plus, amount of milf character scene is incredible low. Yet, younger characters are everywhere. Its beginning of the game but I really don't want to see Hannah, Chloe and Judy anymore.
2-Vanilla content. I think game is trying too hard to be vanilla many times, it is kind of break your immersion.
Hannah jumps on MC every scene she is in but Chloe and Carol don't give a shit. Chloe clearly in love with MC but she was getting finger action with Judy in same bed. I understand this is harem type but at least some jealousy writing would have helped more deep characters and better sex scenes. These characters just walking mindless toys for MC, waiting to be fucked with same animation poses over and over again. Like I said I can't blame them for incest content but at least they could write characters and scenes way,way better.
My other complain is, many sex scenes felt really flat. At least there could be rough/hardcore fucking. Every character says how muscular and strong MC is but MC having sex with them like he is a fragile piece of wood. I will really disappointed if we cannot fuck Melissa really rough/hardcore. Plus I hope there won't be any femdom. MC is already agreeing everything he has been told, I can't take femdom action on top of that.
This game needs better character dynamic, hardcore sex and non-same looking sex scenes asap.
3-Story. It repeat itself over and over again. I am not saying it is following same formula as ToN. I am saying that MC and some other characters keep circle around same thing over and over again. Go to mansion then go to police station then go to mansion again and so on. I quit the game multiple times and took a break because of this.
Many main characters are one dimensional. Ironically side characters much deeper and fun to interact with; for exp, Father Solomon, David, Bobby etc. Melissa and Hannah only two main characters have some personality so far.
4-Finding things in the game is awful and tiresome. Most of the time Seraph told you what to do but when its come to finding more minor things like keys and side quests things are becoming pretty painful quickly.
TL;DR It is a quality game and you won't be sorry for playing it but it needs major improvements as soon as possible.
