You wrote a pretty thorough post last night, and I read it all, of course, but I was just too tired to write anything more than a few lines. But since you took the time and gave us a lot of good feedback, I think I owe you a second try.

Just played the latest update. I was pretty excited about it, as Myrtle is mah gurl.

In the end... eh. The sex scenes themselves hadn't that spark I was expecting. My take on her, from the previous update, is that she was resigned to her life without a husband and the MC would change that a bit. He did it, but it felt... dunno, not how I thought it would be.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first part - Junior's help and the escalation of Myrtle's bravery. I liked that they both helped each other to fight off the wolf; it's pretty rare to see it in stories. The link with Rose and the toy-making was refreshing for a porn game and it was clear both girls had some sexual tension between themselves (at that moment, I knew there would be a scene between them and the MC in the future). It was nice to see so many customers at her door!
But the blowjob being 'not sex'... c'mon, that's pretty much wrong. Myrtle is not that innocent! That really broke the suspension of disbelief. She still had feelings for her hubby and I sincerely doubt she'd do that (or, even worse, the handjobs later). Still, a game is a game, so let's carry on.

The last part was the weakest one, I feel. It's basically a collection of sex scenes with a bit of flavor text. A great visual reward, but after a quite well-thought storyline, the 'ending' felt a bit lacking. There could have been more conversation. As others have said, the 'harem' acceptance doesn't strike me as Myrtle's type at all. X-Men Evolution: Rogue-Like deals with it a bit more... feasibly (can't say 'realistic', of course ). Well, it's a harem game, but I guess she could be more... jealous? That would make it more believable - differently of Rose or Lana, which I'm certain wouldn't care if you're with other girls. Holly, on the other hand, seems to be closer to Myrtle and a more jealous girl (in fact, suggestion: Myrtle and Holly could have each some special sex scene after they get wind you've been with other girls earlier in the day )

1. Now that's a nightgown! Wouldn't mind seeing a girl every night in that
I know it looks great. But it was a nightmare posing the scenes with a different outfit. I get to learn the attributes of characters I'm posing, but with Myrtle, I was constantly mixing their sprites attributes and had to do a lot of debugging to have it all ready. Still, I'm happy that at least it was appreciated, and people found it sexy.


That said, there is something really sad and the worst crime of all in this update:
The MC barely plays with Myrtle's breasts! COME ON!
I wanted to see those melons kissed, sucked, grabbed, and motorboated as much as possible! How can we get just a single scene with them getting interacted with?!?

I know there's a titfuck scene in the works, but that's not the same thing...

I've said it before but I'll gladly say it again:

I LOVE all of the women we currently have so no matter who is featured in an update I will be happy. I know pregnancy is still very far away (probably) but I can't wait to have many children with all of those beauties when the time comes. Some might wanna settle down with only one woman which is totally fine but I personally could never choose unless I'm forced really hard.

I just hope pregnancy won't be just an ending but an actual gameplay mechanic that will be introduced later. I'm sure Chestnut and Pistachio will come up with something amazing as they always do.

Until then, keep up the amazing work and take as much time as you guys need (even tho the waiting is really painful haha).

I want to preface this by saying I'm a huge fan of the game, so I'm not just being a hater by saying this.

It's a little weird and off-putting the way the MC constantly uses "pretty" as a nickname for Myrtle. Maybe it's the repetition that's throwing me off. Once or twice would probably be fine.

But it's usage as a noun instead of an adjective just reminds me of the Wicked Witch of the West, and because he kept saying it, the image got reinforced, and now I can't not hear the Wicked Witch's voice whenever I read MC calling Myrtle "pretty".
Damn!
I use its Spanish equivalent all the time, and didn't pause to think that I've never heard it in English. I don't mind if something is a bit odd, but the Wicked Witch? Damn, I'm sorry it spoiled it for you that badly! :LOL:

Hahaha! Your sores are our delights! :ROFLMAO:
But I believe Myrtle has found many new fans - and the nightgown certainly was a bit part of it!

Thank you for reading through my review, Mr. Nuts! Hope I didn't sound offensive or aggressive - I just have special care about that curvy blonde, that's all! :love:
And I can't wait for the next update!

It was toward the end of the release, and when we had almost concluded all of the sex scenes when we noticed that the MC hadn't paid nearly enough attention to her boobs. We had decided to have a sleep sex event in the future, but scrapped that in favor of the titfuck, and this time it will have a proper build-up, which means a lot of involvement with her breasts.

I fucking knew it!
On the plus side, translating that part to Spanish should be very easy for you!

Muchas Gracias (Thank you)! And yes, we're Spanish.

Simply put, this game is amazing, story is funny yet enticing, characters are very likable and not only because of their physique, animations, while not otherworldly are very fine... seriously, can't wait to see the next update, I don't know if the game developer will see that, but take your time, it's worth it ! (and you got another Patreon)

I'm so saddened by the message board poster that our orc girl Gomira escaped prison.. Really hoped we got to break her out of jail. :cry:

The world creation is absolutely amazing, you guys make everything feel so alive with the art and animations everywhere.
And I get this is a personal taste and others might even enjoy it, but if I get to compliment the writing on anything it's the fine balance of the dim-witted MC and the illusion of choices here and there. Like with Lana and the bottle or more recently Myrtle her eyes or boobs. It's the same outcome and in my opinion not necessarily the best but somehow everything seems to fit better than I would expect, it's tolerable and funny at the same time on the verge of cringe it's an extremely well done balancing act which (oddly enough for me) is even enjoyable so far more than it is frustrating? I guess so again well done! Although I wonder how long that "trope" will work.

With the latest update, and from what I gather here its a conscious decision to focus on the "girls" stories a bit first now?
It feels a little off in relation to the previous version where it seemed like we got a good start in the main story and I was all excited about the maze and the stuff happening in town. I guess my point being is that I would expect everything to develop more gradually instead of focusing on one route? from a story telling perspective at least..

Other then some personal taste things. What A Legend is exactly that. The becoming of a legendary well put together game.
from the story to the technical things of the menus and scene replays all so well implemented and the hilarious curriculum vitae ( hopefully someday steam achievements :ROFLMAO: ) the attention to detail is amazing so far and hope you guys keep up the astounding work. Hyped for future updates.

Goddamn! Great update, and I appreciate the decision to stick with one character for the update and finish a story arc (although it helps that Myrtle was at the top of my list). Now the torture of waiting several months for the next one. Argh! Hope Gretta gets some love soon, can't wait for Waldo to blow a gasket, even though it looks like he barely notices her.

Seriously, some awesome jokes in there, as well. Blizzard Entertainment?! Class. Please don't tell me you guys are killing it like this in your second language, that'd be... legendary, actually.

After playing version 0.4 I realized that Myrtle actually doesn't wear shoes... ever. I mean it's normal to not wear any when you're at home but I was still surprised to see that she's always barefooted even when walking around outside on all kinds of surfaces. I don't mind it of course, it's just a little detail I noticed while playing.

Another detail that I actually really love but not all games do, is the fact that the various women all have differnet heights. Serena and Celestina for example are quite tall and are about the same height as the MC himself. Myrtle and Rose on the other hand are both like half a head shorter than the MC which is quite interesting.

It's little things like this that add up and create the amazing immersion of this game that I love so much. I could praise the game all day but we all know how awesome it is at this point so I'll leave it at that.

I didn't read this thread between 0.4 being released and my finishing it. So I just skimmed through like ten pages of posts. Sorry if I repeat anything.

I love this game. I've loved it since 0.1. I remember when we first met saying words to the effect of, "It's going to be fun to look back and say, 'I knew them back when...'" You are wonderful artists/writers/developers, and, more importantly, you're wonderful people. 4 episodes in, you just keep getting better and better, earning time and time again the praise of your players and your peers, all while staying grounded and humble. <hugs>

I know how hard you've been working on this, but everyone else should know as well. It shows. There's a ton of content in this episode, and, I believe, it actually manages to improve on the quality that has been so prevalent in the rest of the game. Bravo. Extremely well done.

I'm a big fan of Myrtle in her pink lingerie. Nudity is fine and all, but lingerie is incredibly sexy.

Myrtle's story arc was extremely satisfying. Watching her grow in confidence and independence was heartwarming.

MC's treatment of Myrtle was equally heartwarming. I've seen people complain about him being dumb. I don't see it at all. He's caring and thoughtful and a great guy. I'd take him over an action film star any day.

The "sexual ramp" was really well done. I appreciated how they move from hugs and bum squeezes all the way to anal sex in a logical progression.

The art ... omg Chestnut. The facial expressions are fantastic. Yeah, fine, boobs. Guys play this. But we're humans, and faces are everything. The scene where you go upstairs and Myrtle hadn't slept much. You could see that in her face before she said anything! Even the wolf's expressions were emotive. <bows in awe>

I liked the UI changes. Clicking the time wheel in the upper left corner to advance time is very helpful. And I feel that the hidden pictures were perfect this time. I used the "map" hints to tell me which screen to look in, and found them then. It was the right balance between feeling a sense of achievement and not being frustrated.

The problems were few and far between:
A tiny number of the lines were a bit awkward in English, but were dialog, so didn't really matter. That you can write this much outside of your native language and get it this right is shocking.

There were a few times where something on a character's face switched sides when the character turned. It happened when MC's face was scratched and it happened with a line of cum. This did nothing to hurt my enjoyment of the game. It kind of made me smile and say, "Oh, good, those two are actually human..."

One thing that bugged me a little bit was that you used the image of MC taking off his shirt when he was putting on his shirt. You don't put on a shirt in the reverse of the way you take it off. So, every time I say that, some part of my head said, "Wait, wasn't his shirt just off?" And then in the next frame it was, "And now it's on?" Again, a minor thing. Way better to spend the time doing all the other stuff you did than fixing that.

Storyline wise, it's a bit hasty that Myrtle jumped from being so faithful to her husband to thinking it's okay that MC can sleep with anyone he wants. I know you have to do this, since it's a harem game, but it's a challenge here. (It made total sense with Holly in 0.3, though.) I don't suggest you change anything, more thoughts for future character arcs. When they talked to Rose, she kind of implied that she had relations with MC. Maybe if Myrtle had been taken aback by this and maybe talked with them about it a bit, then had some mental dialog over the course of the rest of the game coming to grips with it. We don't need much. Just show that she's thought it through and worked it out over time.

Fantastic work through and through!

Co-sign. He's just about silly/awkward enough for some of the jokes to work, which is a good balance. It'd get tiring if he had to play the straight man throughout. Plus, he's quite proactive when it comes to the ladies, whether it's taking the edge off Holly's prickly demeanor, encouraging Myrtle's dormant sexuality, or even keeping bigshots like Madeline and Serena on their toes.

OOOOOOOH BOY. YES!
*Bows* You and all your team are scholars and gentlemen/ladies. Thank you!!
Hope I wasn't too pushy with that :unsure:

Ah, yeah. I've forgotten those lines.
And yeah, her wet t-shirt cutscene is, IMO, the best Myrtle scene of all. It's right there that I saw them making a connection and it was quite sexy AND classy.

After playing version 0.4 I realized that Myrtle actually doesn't wear shoes... ever. I mean it's normal to not wear any when you're at home but I was still surprised to see that she's always barefooted even when walking around outside on all kinds of surfaces. I don't mind it of course, it's just a little detail I noticed while playing.
Lol, I've noticed that too. At the start, her feet showed up here and there (but she was at home). Then, she travels... barefoot? It seems dangerous! But her feet are quite pretty.
Or she's a giant-size hobbit, which would only make her even cuter.

Storyline wise, it's a bit hasty that Myrtle jumped from being so faithful to her husband to thinking it's okay that MC can sleep with anyone he wants. I know you have to do this, since it's a harem game, but it's a challenge here. (It made total sense with Holly in 0.3, though.)

A good observation! I completely agree.
