Ugh I really want to like this its a frustrating experience though
spent an hour getting to the scene where you choose between Pool or Katie in the showers after following Rose
Random chance is killer, feels much worse than the previous version
Saves are still somewhat broken
-several "in between scenes" (scenes between decisions) for lack of a bettername, cause me to reset from the beginning
example shower scene with Katie after 15 straight retries my stealth skill finally worked before pushing my luck I saved
however i started at the beginning same thing happens between the 2nd stealth and 3 choice deception restarts back to
the scene between the first stealth choice and the 2nd stealth choice. If that makes any sense
-several in between scenes have a bugged "Save Menu" text
ex first scene with Rose, if you aren't confident you can successful deceive her and choose to save, the scene resets AND
the Save Menu appears but the options Save Load etc etc appears briefly before fading leaving you with the Save Menu box. The X button is there but it doesn't close it, it just forwards the text (unless its decision time, to which it does nothing)
I don't know if you can make multiple save files, doesn't seem like it
previous save auto restarts from the beginning
so when the latter issue happens you have to alt f4 and start a new game since using continue will herald the same results.
kills me inside that
oh and with the first girl the gym person/escort, i can't remember at what point this happened but if you save at one of the in between scenes and load back to it the screen is black, the choices and texts still come up, but it remains like this until you finish talking with your Auntie
previous version gameplay felt much smoother in some ways
in the sense that I didn't have to retry the first scene roughly 8 times to get deception and another like 10 times because i had to reset the game itself due to the Roselyn scene save bug.
at the same time i think the new save system is somewhat of an improvement upon the last
i can't really imagine how difficult it is to fix these things, but it is getting better at least it feels like it is.
tl:dr I personally think random chance is way too rough at all early stages of the game, not very rewarding
and coupled with these few bugs the game still feels unplayable
