Well, finally through with the initial playthrough and I have to admit there is much to like, which I have come to expect from MrDots across the years.
Of course, this being their fourth game you can see some sort of "Best of" of their previous characters, all blended into new ones looks-wise. I think I've seen Melody in them once or twice, Sister from SL definitely was in there and some "outside inspirations". Mom gives me Casey Wilson from Happy Endings vibes and Zora viewed from the side at the end of her workout scene reminds me a bit of Aloy from Horizon. Speaking of the latter, I can't help but wonder if her model changed from the first episode to the second; she did not seem that plump when we first met her. But all in all the team did a very good job this time, even the petite ones are pretty and having a BBW as love interest is definitely new.
Speaking of new, at first I had no clue how to earn hearts, but it cleared up at the first summary. However, currently there is no way of knowing if you missed some or still have full marks. I am a bit worried since I did not earn any with Bella and Mom in Episode 2. (Current Standings: Ariel 3, Bella / "Barbara" 2, Mom / "Vivi" 2, Megan 0, Juliet 1 and Zora 1.) And YAY!, Harem points. Finally!
Story is definitely different this time, with the MC definitely not being as timid as the ones before, however, his bad luck turns it a bit into comedy and undermines him IMO. Dad is easily identified as the resident A-hole and my bet is that in the end we will somehow make him spent time in the slammer while we ride off into the sunset with one or more of the girls. Maybe we will choose between a family harem of one or more of the girls or get involved with Zora for a rich future (after robbing Daddy-in-Law's bank). I feel the big choice will be to either continue a crime career or giving it up for the love interest.
Finally, while I appreciate that we are getting scenes early, even including a threesome, the final one with the tattoo girl in the alley seemed a bit weird and out of place. Maybe the MC was robbed again, I don't know, but for now it did not serve any purpose IMO. Anyway, I am curious to find out how the story continues.
