    TLDR: The game has little potential. It shows glimpses of it. The story itself seems to be a pretty decent concept. It’s just a lot of stuff that needs to be reworked and added onto. Some of the render issues(clipping and such) can be excused to a point. It was too much to excuse it so often. Bella looks really good. One character seems to be constantly looking in a different direction. This is my first review. Ever. I've played MANY games. I felt obligated to say something. The "ending" (if you can even call it that) sent me to the menu mid conversation. Didn't even see a "save here now" screen.


    I’m at a loss for words honestly. Not in a good way either. There hasn't been really any AVN I’ve played where I’ve been more confused about what was going on and seeing random things that just ruin the renders. I like the idea of a vampire AVN. This was barely one of those. We see them actually drink blood maybe 3 times possibly 4. I also noticed a few typos as well but those happen anyways. There was one instance where the DEV just straight up used the wrong word. It was supposed to be “kneel” but he put “Neil”.... I thought it was his name at first but then the next render was him “neiling” down. I can maybe under if English wasn't their first language but everything else seemed to be ok other than some typos.

    I would say maybe 95% of the entire time I was extremely confused on what was going on. MC gets sent to college then takes a phone call in the middle of class and just learns his parents are dead and then he is like “Oh no!...anyways” and then starts training to be a sniper. The person he went to for comfort(I think. I'm not even sure tbh) was some girl named Beth and then we never see her again. Ever. The only other time that name shows up is when you have a “choice” of which girl to see. I picked seeing Beth because the entire time I kept thinking “Where’s Beth” and “Who even was Beth”. Then when I actually picked it, It went to Bella?!?! That’s not even the best part of that choice. Bella was like “Nah go see her” and pretty much kicked you out. It was a pointless choice lol. Same when we had to choose between finding a bench or talking to the roommate. You’re going to that bench regardless. We go from one thing to another without any explanation. When MC goes and trains it was mentioned that it was going to be for 10 years. Then a few lines go by and then it says a few years? Then the screen says “months later” then one of the girls says it's been a good 4 years. We got 4 different lengths of time in about 2 minutes. One render we’re cuddling and then the Queen sends someone to pick you up and then the Queen says Lillith went on a bloodthirsty rampage 3 days ago. We were with her the past 5 years or months or weeks or however longs it been. Then you’re sent to kill her(which ig now we’re contract killers that used to be a sniper?) and then when you see Lilith again she's at some house(we just left a cuddle session btw) and then is scared to see you? The last time you see her was when we were cuddling up next to her. After that, she says the MC has been gone for a long time?? Did we not just come from some office that we only went to cause someone picked MC up MID cuddle session? HUH?? Then the roomie shows up and takes her(she can teleport now ig) then on top of that was the plan of the MC all along? She tells Lilith that the MC told her to teleport her away? WHEN DID THAT EVEN HAPPEN?? I don’t understand what’s happening. No, I don’t understand the why on things happening. Another thing is that people can just make guns appear as well. “Oh they’re magic” Yeah well how was I supposed to know? It was never really explained at all.
    Every character goes from being mad at the MC or some other character (for what seems to no reason at times) to “ok whatever” and being completely fine within 3 lines. Doesn’t really make sense to me at least.

    Onto the weird things in renders. The hair clipping is to be expected somewhat. That doesnt really bother me most of the time. However when there’s one render of a character squatting down and it looks like she has the most hairy armpits of all time is a little much imo. I’m not sure how the hair works in DAZ but i’ve never seen that before. One of the first things we see that’s just a “wtf” moment is when we first see alexandria(roomie) and when she puts on a shirt. The shirt was just floating between the camera and her. Her arms didnt move like she was putting on a shirt. Then before that fight it looks like her pants are just some PNG image over her legs. There were also a few renders where the arms were just straight up going through their own ribcage. The pose was supposed to have their arm BEHIND their back it went through them instead.There was also a few renders when characters were standing next to each other the one behind didnt seem to have an arm. The poses were just off. Enough that the Dev should’ve gone “oh wait hold on let me fix that”.

    They skipped a sex scene. Not just any scene, the ONLY “scene”. It essentially went from “oh ig we’re doing this” to “alright well it’s done lets sleep”.....This was like 1200 to maybe 1400 renders in too. It’s not even like it was at the start or the end. It was so far into the game and it skipped it. I was actually hoping to see a scene as somewhat of a reward so far.

    The ending? What was that? I can stand cliff hangars but that wasnt even that. It was just an end. It seemed like it ended in the middle of a sentence as well. Didnt even have the normal “ save your game here” or “end of this update” it just put me back to the menu.

    The game has potential. It shows glimpses of it. The story itself seems to be pretty decent. It’s just a lot of stuff that needs to be reworked and added onto. Some of the render issues(clipping and such) can be excused to a point. It was too much to excuse it so often.

    No, just no.

    I swear telling chatgpt to write a novel would give you a 1000x better result than whatever the fuck this is.

    The protagonist is pathetic, dude doesnt even get the justification of being a retarded "teenager" for that, since he is an old vampire. Living with mom and dad (LMAO) , gets kicked out and goes to college. why? Who the fuck knows.

    The MC acts like an autistic redditor, weak, pathetic, everything that happens in this is so utterly stupid and silly that I couldnt even finish playing it. I guess having such a moron as a MC is necessary if the game needs him to get cucked later on, but if you want to have a romance/harem stoiry as well, then it just doesnt work. But really that is only one of the issues, this is just so bad it has no chance either way, renders are awfully mediocre as well so not even good to just jack off.

    version: prologue
    this was promising initially but then it goes and forces you to choose a LI you barely know, declaring 'shes the one and I knew from the first moment' The protagonist has zero facial expressions for anything
    he's as interesting as a block of wood an twice as stiff
    the writing needs polish
    the characters need real motivations and personalities
    the project needs the kinetic tag at least for now as there are zero choices
    the protagonist needs to be explored in the prologue so we resonate with him and understand him.... this does NOT occur in any form
    file size is already almost 3gb an its just the first installment, that needs to be reigned in hard.
    renders arent bad but they arent really GOOD either.
    at least on my monitor many scenes were a bit too dark

    Theres some good ideas here and something of a foundation but it needs a serious amount of work before it becomes something worthwhile.

    An 80 year old vampire who is kicked out of the house by his parents. That's the way this story starts. Wait, it gets worse. He begs his mommy to let him stay saying, "I don't want to go". Daddy tells him his packed bags are waiting at the door and to hit the road. Yep, he's out on his own now. Where is he headed? College. The renders are too dark and the posing is marginal at best. The dialogue reads like something an average 10 year old would write. The protagonist is a weak and timid dweeb who gets bullied by the first person he meets; his female roommate. Trust me. Things only go downhill from there.

    If you like poor graphic art and stories about simps, this one is definitely a must read.

    Writing this at the prologue release

    Decent first release overall, girls look good and the story is different than the other vampire type ones that I've played. Only had a few things here and there that I might change but they aren't super major. One of them was the pacing of the first week of college, felt like that could be expanded a bit more with the relationships of the MC and girls instead of just leaving it behind within 10 minutes. That might make it feel more real when they say they've never stopped thinking about him (Yes ik love at first sight exists but still). The other was a witty remark MC made in his fight against Talon (Don't feel like MC would really say that based on his personality, but that may just be me).
