Can somebody tell me what The Genesis Order is actually about?
I get that it's a RPG and so involve collecting things, trading, going on quests and such like but can't work out what the plot of the game is. Most RPG have a goal like the player becoming a king, magician, rich, powerful or vanquishing something evil or whatever but can't see for the life of me what's going on in The Genesis Order.
The main character is a detective who does little or no police work and keeps blundering into random sexual encounters with attractive females for next to reason, e.g., the Detective bumps into some girl, who he hardly knows. The girl drops a coin, stoops to pick it up and while bent over looks up at the detective and says: "Your cock appears to be hard. This is bad for your health and you need to cum. While I'm down here shall I take care of you, give you a sloppy blowjob, and make you nice and comfortable?"
This ultra-basic sex scene with minor variations gets replayed over and over and over again in The Genesis Order.
Treasure on Nadia had fascinating and bizarre characters like Sofia and Madalyn, details concerning being drip fed to players over a long period and only slowly revealed, and fictional histories about the Ticpac/Casula, Fire Pirates, Church of Cambion, shamanism, magic, lost treasure and curses, basically loads of stuff between the lines to keep the interest going, whereas The Genesis Order appears to have nothing similar going for it even though it is definitely graphically superior. (The characters in the animations have better facial expressions, articulation and movement for example.) I think that the reason The Genesis Order seems flat and less engaging than Treasure of Nadia is because it lacks the mystery and intrigue that Treasure of Nadia had in bucket loads early on even though it sort of collapsed under its own weight and fizzled out later.
Maybe I'm missing something but that's the way things seem to me.
How NLT Media are going to be able to stretch this one out to the end of 2023 I can't imagine.
