I was initially turned off by the Honey Select 2 graphics, which suffer from all the problems with it, like the sameface problem coming from only three head models being supplied with the game, and so the studio.
However, the graphics hide behind them a decently deep game with some really good writing and, um... "compelling" scenes.
The management aspect has an effect on the game and doesn't feel like busywork, unlike with many other games. Instead, it actually feels like it belongs there. The characters are likeable, have personalities and the dialogue is at parts excellent.
I actually played through all the available content, which I wouldn't for your typical HS2 fare. The only thing that'd make this better would be pregnancy content, but I'm not going to substract a point for it, obviously because that's just my preference.
What I am going to substract one for, are the HS2 graphics. The dev makes a heroic effort at times to avoid the samefaceitis, but it can't be completely avoided, and I foresee the limited clothing and other assets in HS2 becoming a problem for him at some point, if they aren't already.
