Your feedback is completely fine and valid, since it's what you want out of a game. But please understand that what you want is not the same as what everyone wants. I'm not looking for RPG statbuilding or a combat system in my romantic games. I do play RPGs and shooters and strategy games on my Xbox, but that's not what I'm looking for in a romantic/erotic game. Your feedback feels to me like suggesting that the movie "Sleepless in Seattle" needed a high speed chase scene and explosions. I do love me some explosions, but not in EVERY movie.

I like WaL the way it is. It's an erotic adventure game that I can enjoy without devoting too much of my scarcest resource (time) to it. I'll get my RPG combat out of Legacy of the Beast...

Point and click adventures haven't been popular for years so they might not know of the genre. Monkey Sword or Broken Island might not be games they've ever played. There is probably a whole decade of casual gaming people who know nothing but GTA, COD and Fortnite so soon every Dev is going to get swamped with "I want to shoot people" no matter the game setting or style.

I have literally never, ever seen this complaint for a porn game even once in my entire life. Not once. Maybe it is my lack of time spent looking at feedback (as generally looking at other people's opinions on a third party's projects are kind of irrelevant to me anyway), but I reckon it doesn't really happen.

Also, what planet do you live on? With Steam and GOG and whatnot, the indie gaming scene (which includes a lot of point-and-click adventures) is literally in a golden age, and besides that, porn games in general get much more money (especially money that goes directly in the pockets of the people putting in the effort to making them) than the people involved in the development of regular games, which includes regular indie games that don't include the extra enticing option of pornographic content (and, trust me, there is no easier way to get people to give you money for a minimum amount of effort than adding porn to it), yet those still keep getting made, sometimes to the outright monetary detriment of the developers. Some people just like to do what they do and are fine with appealing to smaller demographics in general.

At the end of the day, whether MagicNuts deserve more remuneration for the game or not is a separate issue, but I don't think the project is starving of monetary compensation (admittedly, I guess this depends on where the developers live and how their living costs are, and if they are struggling, then I'll rescind most of what I've said in this post) and I can promise you that the people that come to this forum or find out about What a Legend from somewhere else and/or stumble upon their Patreon are definitely (and I mean this to apply nigh-universally) not looking for a CoD or a Fortnite or to shoot people. Nobody ties the fun and test of skill of a shooter game to their horniness, unless they are in such an insignificant sect of psychopathy that nobody needs to (or should) cater to them anyway.

Why only Myrtle content reeeeeeeeeeee

Art's fuckin' bangin' though.
Only? You have more erotic scenes here than in all previous updates[...]

Mate, if you didn't understand the meaning of "only Myrtle" in my comment, then I don't know what to tell you. I thought what I wrote wasn't ambiguous in any way. I think this game is fantastic, and I'm not one of those people who's going to give shit to such a great developer (unless they abandon the project completely), but that wasn't the point of my comment at all. Just a little personal nod to the fact that Myrtle's far from my favourite girl in the game, that's all.

Lol I thought my post was quite obviously a joke but it allowed you to vent 3 paragraphs so I'm glad it was helpful to your mental well being.

I enjoy writing on a keyboard, what can I say.

Also, my mental well-being's pretty good, especially when I know that I am at least capable of making better jokes than you (and I say "better" rhetorically; your comment wasn't - nor did it come off - as a joke in any way, shape or form, and you're just deflecting after you were called out for a shit comment), so thanks for that, buddy. Points still stand; maybe next time you make humourless jokes that put forth a contention, you'll do better than just needlessly insult people.

Lol use your super brain to re read the game names, maybe that will tip you off because the obviously exaggerated tone of the rest of the post was lost on you.

I didn't get my point across well, sorry. I don't mean to suggest that the game completely changes to suit my wishes. However when I compare this game to Sensual Realms or the new build of Goddess Realm I realize that those games have less writing, but through small "rpgey" choices in the dialogue it keeps me interested through out and I don't really skip. And I feel a little called out by the mention of point and click adventures. The thing is Games like Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis made you feel like you figured something out, that you put the pieces together. Small Puzzles would also be fun. But my experience with the game stands. I think it would be better if there would be more reason to engage with it and I say this because I really think parts of the game are very much better than so many other games, so it's criticism stemming from adoration.
Have you played Long Live The Princess? If you haven't, I think it would appeal greatly to you.

As for this game, if it ain't broke, don't break it! By making the changes you suggest, more people might enjoy it, but some people might also stop playing.

I think they are on the right track here, and what you would like added is NOT a minor tweak.

Oh yeah, those and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Grim Fandango... ahh the good old Amiga and early PC days... how I miss them...
Ever play Toonstruck? As a kid thinking "hey its the guy from back to the future" I wasn't expecting the game to be quite so odd and adult in themes. The scarecrow is probably a hate crime these days.

Hello @magicnuts,

love your game, it's really nice!! Nice artwork, very sexy, tasteful and charming!! But I've seen anal in upcoming content. Can you PLEASE make this optional? I find it disgusting and it's not skippable in almost any other porn game.

Great work!

There's already anal sex in the current content, entirely optional. So I guess that will be the trend

A simple RPG progression with a turn-based combat system might really be fun. Choices that matter in dialogue and in general more focused and denser writing are hard to do I know and it's kinda cheap criticism, but here I am. As of now, it's mostly "click the hotspots to see the pretty pictures", and I think it can be better! Great even.
...
Mate, you're in the wrong forum. Very few erotic games have RPG elements, because that's not the focus here. If you have found some that cater to that interest of yours - then great. But please don't 'criticize' a game for having a completely unrelated concept. You're trying to do what a lot of people attempt, by pushing for games to conform to their fetishes or expectations instead of finding ones that already do.

On a logical level your suggestion also fails, because any combat system in this engine would still be just clicking on hotspots. This isn't RPG maker, and I personally think games in that engine are horrible. Plus other than padding out the playing time, those features would add nothing to the game. Like a wise man once said "That's just slavery with extra steps".

Pretty good game, that art is fucking amazing. I love Lana lol
kinda sad it is still "green". Got to the end of the version with all characters and the story in less than 4 hours i could say.
Hoping for having more content with Holly, she's toxic and I like it

No, but read about it in a magazine (and a demo was on the companion CD), but couldn't get it to work on my first PC so never got it later.
