Even better if he decides to add different races to the like orcs and stuff, you could have a female from a race of giants or some other race that is very big and the only way the MC can have sex with her is if he drinks a potion that makes his penis larger.
even better if he just switches to rpgmv..that way we could have another Peasants Quest, yep?

That would be a nightmare, the rpgm controls, the quality of the renders, the performances, the impossibility to resize the window like you want or to save whenever you want.

Ren'py master race.

We were recently told that What a Legend is mistagged since it is neither a sandbox nor a dating sim.

That confused us. And so, we got in touch with one of the moderators who confirmed that the tags are correct.

However, since each person might have somewhat different definitions of these concepts, some players are bound to be misled. And that's really not what we want.

Therefore, we've decided to remove both "dating sim" and "sandbox" tags until we have a bit more of these elements (probably in 0.3).

Good decision! But I do hope that the game will be later on both tags or at least sandbox ;-)

Dating sim, maybe since people can't fathom how a 1st release won't have 99%+ content already in it and then come out crying their lives are wasted waiting a few months for more stuff

Sandbox is harder to question since you can do anything in any order with any girl without a time limit nor "real" end-game objective to "win the game". But people being people, especially in here .............. :unsure:

The "person" is me. It's ok to tag me, by the way. If you want a discussion, that is.

While there are no rigid definitions (which is true for any genre, but more so with sandbox), sandbox games have some defining features and gameplay patterns that Legend decidedly lacks at least right now, and so anyone expecting those will not find any them here, repeating for emphasis, right now. We could go over the list of these patterns if someone's interested. So this isn't about a certain % or absolute amount of content being available in the first version, but rather some mechanics being at least somewhat functional.

By that logic and since it's 1st release, there should be like 3-4 tags max .....

I did not tag anyone in particular because the issue of mistagging had been raised by others before.

But those were several weeks ago, and we hadn't give it much thought since.

After reading your review, we agreed that the tags might be misleading. Overpromising and appearing to be using sleazy promotional tactics weren't what we had intended. So thanks for pointing it out, and I'm sorry if you felt misled.

On a different but related topic:
We also agree with some of the other issues you pointed out:
  • The bland writing of the sex scenes was a complete miss that several members here had raised as well. We have already added more writing for 0.2.
  • Our world may appear too large to be realizable. But designing it and coming up with stories to make it come to life is what we've had the most fun doing. It has been one of our biggest motivators. You have a valid point, but game-dev could be tough, and we wanted to make the process as enjoyable as possible.

Thanks again for taking the time to raise these issues. Hopefully, it will help us improve the game.

... and there's nothing wrong with that. Well, 3 tags is a bit of an exaggeration but 6-7? Yes. In fact, a lot of games are just like that. A lot of completed games are also like that if they aren't catering to multiple fetishes.

Ah, I see you're a worldbuilder as well. ;)

I certainly wish you best of luck in pursuing your passion. It's just, being a bit of a pessimist, I am worried. Burning out halfway through completion is a not so rare a problem and, for obvious reasons, it happens more often to grand epics rather than short stories. Heck, we know several professional writers that are failing to finish their magna opera.
