Time to put in my two cents for this update. I expected it to be buggy and short, so I guess he delivered. After all, its a full rework. As the for the quantity of the update, I dont really care. If feel its much more important that what content thats coming is meeting a standard. New content is irrelevant, if the quality of the content is not good enough. And while the 3d have some upsides, there are some issues here. Many of the expressions looks cartoony or uncanny, which put you out of the game and breaks immersion. And the how the pictures transition also looks off. Something needs to be improved here, or it will be hard for many to invest or care about the characters at all, not matter how well written it is.
Which brings me to the next point, the writing. There are grammar issues and weird translations all over the place. What takes me most out of it is the way slang is used, it often dont fit or break a translation who up to the point where much more propper. Im not sure if that is cause of translation, but the writing takes you out of the immersion as it dosnt feel like a character is talking, when the theme of how they express them self change.
The interface is sluggish. It takes way to long between each scene to start clicking though the text. And you cant click on the text which in my mind is the most logical place to click. Thats annoying.
And speaking of the interface. The way stats is placed now looks terrible. Im sorry, but both the earlier versions where it showed your friendship/love/dominance looked so much better. Now I can hardly see it or notice when they change. I can not for the life of me understand why the old ones werent used here as they did the job well. This one looks like a temporary asset, lets hope it is.
The dialog options. Maybe this is just me, or just cause of the things I talked about here takes me out of the game and its hard to see the stats change with the new interface, but I feel like the dialogue options are way less relevant than they used to be. In the original train sequence, what you said mattered a lot. For each choice, you got different stats (and some modifiers) that radically impacted where you could take the game. You had to choose what stats/routes you went for, as you could not do it all. It made it feel like every choice mattered and insted of being able to do everything at once there were several ways to play the game. Right now it feel like its just a couple of choices that give points, and mostly its about choosing the options that give points with one or two others that dosnt give anything. And you go though more or less the same dialog without to much branching. I find this sad as this was one of the major things that made it interesting. But I guess the people who didnt like you had to choose right to get enough points with Lindsey in end (which included skipping the jerk off scene at the station to get the right amount of points) won out. It feel so much more linear right now, hopefully it will not be like that.
When it comes to bugs, obviously the fact that the game freezes when you try and get of at the station is there, but I am wondering, have anyone gotten the dream sex sequence with the sister and her friend, cause I dont get the alternative to do so when I bring their picture to the bathroom. I also have not experiences the bald pervert trying to take the picture of Anny, as we have seen could happen from the video he posted a while back. If anyone have gotten this things, please tell me how.
EDIT: Also, for the love of god, let us turn down the volume on the menu music. Its so loud compare to everything else.
