I don't mind the rails too much (yet), but the constant tough&smart-guy-act of the MC borders on grandstanding and is a smoke and mirror show par excellence, and it's annoying as fuck.

I mean, he's a total nobody, literally on hobo-levels of not having anything going for him, yet he comes in and says "I'll take over, you work for me now, I know how this works, I can do everything better" and everybody just .. goes along with it?
And then he has literally no plan in place on how to proceed (or how anything works, for that matter), but just constantly demands, lectures (with dumb empty phrases and a pointy finger that I want to break so badly..) and demands some more. He's the asshole equivalent of an ideas guy in game production. And nobody likes or cares about those.

And this whole act kiiiinda works for Nora, but how or why Rose just doesn't send 5 guys to fuck him up and dump his body in the next lake is beyond me. Latest update she outright says, she never "felt the need for hiring muscles". Which begs the question how or why she is allowed to rub elbows with any big names of crime in the city. Which in turn makes these supposed "big players" feel like a total joke.

Which is immediately proven 5 minutes later when Graziani says "we tried dealing with her, but she wouldn't budge." .. like .. wat?! The total pushover who immediately rolled on her back for that one-man-nothing-show gave you problems? How? Why? Did you know that you're a criminal and thus can resort to violence, or did you just write her a sternly worded letter? And she owns your warehouses? How .. how did your operations ever work?! And now you plan to pay the MC for using the very things he just took from you? Wow. Just wow! Being a criminal mastermind is so fucking easy, it's all just there for the taking, easy peasy, it's free real estate!

So far, what the MC has shown us, is that he is just two things - a slightly more efficent brute than literal street trash and a spoiled brat. In short, a bully. Nothing else.
We really need a prove-yourself arc here asap, or it makes all the (honestly already pretty damn cringey and cliched) criminals of the story feel like total morons for even bothering with such a puff of bloated up hot air who is nothing but a walking family name and the whole story devolves to yet another impotent powerfantasy harem like several others..

read the codex
the conclave
there you get where the mc comes from
and from the flashbacks - his "training"
to call him a nobody is ignorant

If your ancestors practiced incest, would they be incestors and part of your incestry?

Also, are the LI's optional or just skippable? (mainly just curious, not a big deal for me either way. ) I mean are the choices in the game more about the relationships or just kind of flavor for the MC? Eh I'm gonna play anyways so I will find out I guess

Hans_ · Mar 16, 2025

The only choices in the game is to see or not to see the sex scenes?

Bgguyy1 · Mar 16, 2025

And neither is apparent to the characters in the game - neither Nora, nor Rose.

lowkey feel tiny bit bad for people making those games
so much time and effort only for me to watch pages of dialogue skip for few minutes before I close it cause I cannot stand yap dump...

I'd say 'deluca family from temu' if deluca wasn't from alibaba in the first place.

Andarilho · Mar 17, 2025

No way this asshole Mc would survive in a mafia's world without a plot armor!

I was thinking about trying more after reading this I got discouraged the worst thing about forced LIs are forced prostitute LIs, I'll wait a little and see what the future holds before trying

I have to ask, how do you see a prostitute & deem her a "Love Interest"???
She's a whore. You're not supposed to fall in love with her. Just use her for sex.

NewSeal · Mar 17, 2025

Interesting game but as stated in previous comments, feels like it takes itself way too seriously without being a serious story.
Oh well, I'm sticking around because I'm a sucker for incest. Hope the sister arc begins soon.

It's a good game but inevitable sex is really bad, it's supposed to be a game, right? So at least we have the choice of who we want to fuck or not, damn it.

sergerserj · Mar 21, 2025

Well, unbalanced game...
Too many story-telling and almost not any sex scenes (all of em terrible btw).
Not saying it's bad, character development always good, but still, a bit boring...
More action, more twist may improve game a lot.

Apart from the Italian being used like absolute gibberish—though it’s a fun read—the opening is cool, and I liked all the models—even though I saw some people complaining about them. The renders are solid and so it's the music.

The real problem is that the characters are written with the clear intent of sounding intelligent, but they just come off as pompous blowhards with severe neurological issues that like hearing themselves talking too much—especially so for the protagonist. At the start of the game he seemed a little of a crazy dog—I'm talking about the scene at the bar and the next one with Nora—and I liked that, even if was a bit off putting at times; but later on he turned into nothing more than a cesspool of repressed narcissism, constantly engaging in self-congratulatory mental masturbation, as if he were some genius descended from the heavens to teach the poor fools in the city how to be a criminal mastermind. The worst part? The other characters actually play along with his delusions. Nice. And every single character met so far is written in this way, making it even worse.

It's a shame that the character's writing is so weak because the premise is interesting, a lot, and the other things are there to make a great story. AVNs that deal with organized crime on the side of the criminal can probably be counted on one hand, so it's even more of a shame. I hope the author can turn it down a notch in the next chapter.

AnyName'llDo · Mar 23, 2025

I have a quibble about the beginning narration. Needs and necessities are the same thing. They are synonymous. Anything you need is a necessity. If you don't need something, then it's also not a necessity.
