This game started really good in terms of story (even the renders improved over time) ... but right now I can not longer ignore the "bad" turns it has taken. Usually a player identifies himself to a certain level with the MC during playing, but the decisions the MC made where so far out of the comfort zone for me that I can not longer see the MC played ("steered") by me.
First - there would be NO WAY IN HELL or whatsoever that the killer of MC´s mother would survive my wrath, not after he (the MC) witnessed all close up and the killer stood in front of the MC smiling in such psychopathic way. No LI/friend/or whatever could stop me - especially since the player has the power to do so.
Secondly to simply abandon his (3!) LI´s without even trying to join him on his chosen path - another no-go for myself.
Third, even if I would let go the LI´s simply in such a asshole-ish way, this decision would be a final one for me (as player) and irreversible. I would never reach out to them again and therefore they would be excluded from a possible harem - not a path I (as player) would go.
3 reason for me to say good-bye for now ... such a shame. BUT I still have hope and therefore I keep this thread bookmarked and now and then I gonna come back reading here - hoping for a story change I could identify myself as player with (at least to a certain level^^).
For example I can kill the killer in a spectacular way and let him suffer (really suffer) for all the lives he has taken. And the abandoned LI´s following the MC on his path out of their own will later the game. Seeing his flourishing, cleaned and rightful rebel group is the way they wanna go instead of those outdated traditionalists (dictatorial ans stuck-up) who only see and accept their own way and are acting aggressive against others maybe better ways.
to much BS from my side? maybe ... but I play games to relax & enjoy and not get upset & annoyed.
No joy -> no play ...
NoobPROGames nonetheless I wish you good luck with your project. It has still a little potential. Hopefully you make the best out of it ^^
