It's good, but the fights are shit. It has luck involved where some hits land and some don't which makes no sense. I got boosted 5 times and still died. My stats were like 3x theirs but they could still hit me and take chunks out of my health. It's like if Luffy fought Goku and actually managed to not only hit him but damage him as well even though that would be impossible. So I can't play this when there's no good way to grind stats before these fights. If it gets added in, I wouldn't want to start over just to get better stats either.

It's not entirely about luck, you need to learn what each stat does. Agility is what allows you to hit and dodge, with defense also playing a big part but only for melee physical attacks, the tooltips in the phone status should explain all of that.
So, unless you're severely underlevelled (which I don't think it's possible, you should still have 400-500 on each stat), you might try doing promotion to knight, then boost.
If you cannot boost before you get killed, you can promote to knight, checkmate, promote to queen, then you'll have enough mobility to run around while you maximize your boost.
But yeah, battles are entirely optional. Also, the training methods that'll get added in will be retroactive, so no need to restart.

I think I know what he means. It's how she's drawn, not a bug.
To be honest, she looks like she's been smoking dope all day. Or like maybe she just woke up and isn't fully awake yet. Same difference.
She appears to be hunched forward a little bit, her left eye is open more than her right, but both seem a little sleepy. It's especially noticeable when Asia or Rias or on screen at the same time as her stance and expression comes off different to either of them.
When her eyes are closed it is much less noticeable, although her posture could still use improvement.
Come on girl, with those things on your chest you need to learn to stand up straight or your back is going to kill you when you get older!
Joking aside, her posture is off., she does look a little hunched forward. Again its just a question of how she's drawn compared to Asia and Rias that makes it so noticeable.

Hm... I'll note it down and just redraw the sprite, it's an older one (same time as Rias') so it'll probably look better as redone anyway

Not a bad idea. I didn't want to outright suggest redrawing it, just report what I saw. But if you want to redo it, I think you could definitely improve on it.
I also want to clarify that it's just the regular sprite that seems off, her other images look fine to me.
BTW: I noticed that after Xenovia joins the ORC and Rias' brother shows up, she suddenly goes back to wearing her robes for the rest of that scene (i.e. the wrong sprite is being used). This is in R15, so I don't know if you already fixed that in R16.
Xenovia is given the summer uniform first because she joins late at (almost) summer. The others will be wearing the winter uniform a while longer. I think it's meant to happen, but if Rias is the only one with the winter uniform, let me know and I'll double check the script.

No, not the summer uniform which she starts the scene in, that was sort of explained and made sense for her to be issued the summer uniform if there is only a day or two until summer starts. I mean she is suddenly back in her robes that she wore while a member of the church! As I said, it happens after Sirzechs shows up, I briefly thought it was deliberate, but then realized it didn't make any sense.
Ohh, you mean Xenovia. Yeah, that's very likely a bug. Thank you for letting me know.

After playing through all of the game for the 1st time, I can say I love it. The rewrite of Issei realizing his trauma and dealing with it sooner, going straight to a establish relationship with the girls that had made it blatant they loved him was peak. I also generally like how you made Issei, still his core as a perv is there, but with some nuances like openly considering Kiba a friend.
Btw, Sera-tan is peak Maou Shoujo and deserved that highlight and so much more. Too bad we didn't get to see an illustration of Gabriel, the fem Archangel that's accompanying Michael. Still, it's nice to see her mentioned at least.

Glad you've enjoyed the game so far!
The reason why Gabriel doesn't appear at the summit is because I didn't realize the beautiful angel mentioned in the LN was Gabriel. In the anime they put Irina, so I just assumed it was a random angel, but now I realize it was most likely Gabriel as that makes the most sense.
Not sure if I'll "fix" it as she wouldn't have much interaction at that point. I might just hint at it instead, but for now I'll just note it down so I can think about it.
All the way, and there are even some animations tied to the achievements. However, it's just with Rias and Asia.
While Akeno has some scenes, it's just simple ones. Akeno will be the third girlfriend, with Xenovia quickly becoming the fourth in future updates.

I mean, you can literally boost after moving 1 space each time. By the time you reach the other side, you're insanely overpowered and basically dodge every non big boss of the game, as long as you max Agility first.
The only boss I have trouble where I should probably try to reach the other side and promote to Queen, and move while boosting, is against the Fallen Angel leader, but even then, dude basically takes all of the team before Issei gets there.
You're meant to lose that fight, just like in the source material. It's more to show the new heights the player has to reach, with some teasing with Vali's fight, until the player can manually use the power to balance breaker without any special event.
Of course I don't go out of my way to make the player auto-lose the fight, I even set a reward for winning that fight, but it's basically impossible.
