So, question:
I see a lot of people bring up something involving an "old" game or two with a character named Valentina and how this one is an inferior copy or some shit along those lines, but I was wondering if that's even supposed to be the intent? There's something telling me that it's a little more on the coincidental side, and just happens to feature a girl named Valentina because the dev thinks it's a pretty name or something. I feel like most of the scenarios just happen to be fairly common to this type of game, I've seen similar stuff in Coming of Age for example. (Kinda like how "elves living in a forest" is just a common element of fantasy just adopted from Tolkien's writing.) The Valentina of this game also looks nothing like the one from "Valentina's Story" that was linked on Page 6 in this thread which furthers my doubts. (Given the not-so-great English in this game, I also wouldn't be surprised if Valentina is just a normal-enough name in the dev's home country/language for them to consider using it.)
Since I haven't played the "old" ones due to it not being my kind of content (only played this briefly for the lesbian stuff and was sorely disappointed), is there any actual evidence to support this being some kind of... attempt at a clone?
