MTL is pretty meh. Don't know why you'd even bother anymore if you don't want to spring for an AI translation.
Either way, the game just looks... okay? I played a few days past the prologue and lost interest. The girls in the first game were a lot hotter. And more interesting in general. This one is leaning too hard into them being weird/quirky/wacky/lolsorandom or whatever. "This one's a lazy vampire princess! This one's a yandere demon who wants you to become the demon king! This one's an alien! This one's a cult member! This one's a pirate! This one's... really boring? This one's a thousand year old loli!" Eh.
Girls show up and are like 'Yeah, we want you to father the destroyer to fight your other hero child' and he's like "Perfectly balanced, as all things should be" and gets to work. The first game certainly wasn't Shakespeare, but I could actually feel braincells dying trying to wrap my head around why he's going along with this.
