Ren'Py - What a Legend! [v0.7.03] [MagicNuts]

fanastic writing, interesting characters, animations to further immerse me, intruging story and plots, that stopped me from ever skipping..

beautiful art too! both the writing, story, characters, personalities, the world, the humour, the art style, the animations so beautifully done!
will say sex SFX is definately one that i feel would enhance the scenes. not even moans, but sex sounds, (you get what i mean)

just an all round great game!!

now the reason its not five stars is for these reason(s)

1. i would love repeatable scenes, and sure we have the journal to revisit them, but id love to keep myself immersed in its world and be able to just directly speak to the person i want a specific something off of.

2. lack of variety in body types. all the girls bar the hag are victorias secret models. i want some average, god even some fear boner worthy women to fool around with. i am in a fantasy world, lemme smash some fucking strange things, some UGLY things, some HIDEOUS things, some SCARY things.

3. every damn woman in a medevil fantasy world has a shaved pussy? doesnt feel right, i dont mind some being shaved, but i like variety, and its hard to believe a woman posing as a drunk homeless woman had the time to shave her muff. also the princess (yet to see her pussy), but i wouldnt be surprised if she was shaved, even though it makes zero sense as she never had access to her chasity. point is, id love the partners i have to have a diverse range of pube options, some shaved, some stubble, some landing strip, some 70s bush, and some full on hairy body, pits, pussy, legs, ass etc.. i want that realism dependant on the character for it to make sense, nobles sure i can see them potentially doing it.. however commoners, orcs, old folk etc. variety.

4. variety of partners, im BI so i like variety both male, female, trap, trans etc. however, if thats off the table, gimme some monster ladies, and by god dont make all of em look like pretty lil things, i want to be confused and turned on. not everyone needs to be pleasant to look at, or stick thin with a perfect body. i want some fat ladies with proper rolls, pouches etc, i want skinny asf ladies, i want OLD ASF ladies, ranging from pretty GILFS to dead ass ugly mfs. i want variety in the pussy i explore (or ass?).. if everyone of them looks like pretty models, it makes the immersion less, and therefor i dont believe it, if that makes sense? munters need love too! aka lemme fuck celestina in all her horrid glory without the spec, anal, ass eating, ass job, blowy etc. lemme have a toggle of with or without the glassses. xD freaky deaky shit

5. more options for sex, paired with repeatable IN GAMEPLAY features.. ass licking, pussy licking, fingering, spreading, deep throat with tears, anal and more ass stuff (yeah im an ass dude)..

6. give us a morality system, allow us to do questionable shit, non con? god even just fucking questionable people. lemme choose what i fall into. loved the ONLY but brief scene where you basically creep on Lana is her name? when shes drunk asleep. was hoping for more night invasions or creep scenes. as after all tis a game, a safe space to explore what GAMES of this genre have to offer.

7. wishlist: Trans women, Femboys, dudes. repeatable scenes you can just do in game via dialogue rather than having to refer to a menu. more anal and ass options. more pube options and body types. more characters ranging from sexy asf, hideous, ugly, to scary. diverse age ranges, from young (legal), to middle aged, to pretty gilf, to OLD ASF. and maybe some more creep scenes that we can repeat, expand on that, from scenes like sleep or passed out BJS, anal etc.

anyways, cringe request out the way. this is a cracking game with alot of potential! its not often i load a hentai game up and not skip it. this hooked me in! from my understanding its a couple that devs this? if im right and ive not got my games mixed up.. then GG to both of you! hopefully this isnt another GEM that is lacking regular content cycles, and i end up waiting an age for minimal content. SUPPORT THESE DEVS. i will in time, the only thing for me is 1. how often updates come out and how chonky are these updates. and 2. if you take our suggestions seriously.

gonna keep an eye on this one

I don't fully feel comfortable with this rating.
A part of me wants to give it a 5, because of how good the artwork and aesthetic is, however in terms of actual enjoyment, I should give it a 2/3. Hear me out...

The story is pretty fun, had a nice while during my playthough... but it tends to extend some things that should be shorter .
The controls can become very tiring at some point, in my case quite quickly, and then there's my biggest complain. The scenes just don't cut it for me. There is some good erotism at some points, but mostly I think it is lacking, or at least it doesn't hit me.

In the end, i'm left thinking that this dev can create some amazing things in the future. But What a Legend wasnt precisely my cup of tea, I wish I liked it more.

Sets out what it wants to accomplish. Nice light hearted game with good art. Writing is also good, and the pacing seems to be just right. Would recommend to play as one of the better games out there. Only concern with the game is whether or not it gets completed in a satisfactory manner. While a couple of the LI's have tons of content, one of the cover characters is only in a single scene.

Edit: Took from 5* to 1*. Unfortunately this game has gone the way of being milked. There is no way this ever getting completed, going on two years since last update and one of the cover characters is only in a single scene.

As it is, there's little to no content for most of the girls within the game. Maybe 2-3 girls have more than 1-2 scenes. For how long this has been in dev, that's an abysmal pace and it needs to be addressed.

My only gripe with the gameplay is. . the. . constant. . need. . to. . tap. . twice. . to. . advance. . text. You know, so they can load that facial expression change. That's totally how renpy works, guys. Only, the dev knows it's not, cause randomly you DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT. SO YOU MISS DIALOGUE. BECAUSE YOU'RE USED TO THE GAME BEING ASS AT TRANSITIONS. WHY.

People suck this game's nutsack constantly so I checked it out and honestly, for what's actually here...it's a big nothing burger for me. Average at best as it is at the moment.

V0. 6

I base my reviews on 4 things.
Art, gameplay, story and amount of content.

Art 10/10.
The art in this game is super high quality. Id even say its the best in the porn game industry.
Looks hand-drawn with alot of details even the backgrounds are super well made.

Gameplay 5/10.
There is little to no actual gameplay.
Still more than the avarage VN.

Story 9/10.
Id call this a comedy, its funny and its not taking itself seriously.
The MC is a horny dumbass (common) but unlike the usual idiot MC, this one is actually funny.

Content 8/10.
There is a good amount of high quality H content.
Sadly development is slow but that is expected with this kind of quality.

This game is a must play for VN players who prefer this art style over 3d models.
If you want gameplay its a pass.
Porn wise its great but it lacks common fetishes.
And a big plus for me at least - no NTR

Might be the best 2d artstyle on this site right now! The story is captivating and funny, it's just all around a pleasant game to play. Ofcourse the H-scenes are nice too. Creators usually tend to self insert themselfes in their art, this is true for this game too. However unlike a lot of other developers you can tell that they have a healty view on sex and sexual relations. Good stuff!

Holy crap this is a masterpiece.

The visuals are just stunning, arguably the best I've seen since they are so unique.

Story is pleasingly straightforward, good characters.

But the humor and subtle hints are just elevating this to a new level. I absolutely lost it at the perfect weeb tribute.

Very easily among best 5 games of all of them.

TL;DR: surprisingly boring.

1) While the art is beautiful, it doesn't really fit for a porn game, i.e. it's not really that sexy. As an example you can look at Myrtle bending over near a window in previews. Notice how you can't really see any curves (no buttocks) and it looks flat. This problem is prevalent in most sex scenes art in this game. It's just not that arousing. I wonder if the art for sex scenes is simplified on purpose to easier animate it. I'd honestly prefer it to be static (just a few changing pictures as you progress the scene) if it meant having more details, but maybe I'm wrong and it's just that the art is like that. Also the animations themselves are twitchy and not fluid.

2) While the story is fine for the most part, often it feels like it's stretched out on purpose (if you played the quests in this game like trying to get into the city - you know what I mean). On top of that, there are no real choices to affect story.

3) Not likeable MC. It's really hard to relate to this kind of character (a really stupid kind, with no real good qualities to compensate except maybe a big dick). But what's worse, he really sours the main aspect of any porn game.

4) "The Meat" aka "sexy times". Because of the overall tone of the game and MC being who he is, it's really hard for him to have good interactions with LIs in the game. You wouldn't even believe that half of them can get it on with a guy like that.
The game being really vanilla also doesn't help with that. And by being vanilla I don't even mean not having some extreme fetishes. Just the overall vibe of most of the sex scenes is really tame. There's no passion, no "spark" in them. The positions are boring, no spicy dialog etc. Combined with what I wrote earlier about the art in porn scenes being flat and it makes the overall experience rather unsatisfactory (at least for me).

I still have hopes for some characters (specifically for Gomira and Simmone; I hope they will be more assertive/dominant LIs that will be able to "carry" the sex scenes on their own; Lana was a disappointment in that regard). But those are just hopes and as of version 0.6 it's a rather dull game for me.

Great game, plot is excellent and flows well, side characters are good too
I'm waiting for more updates but for now its really good
I like the game play with hidden renders, scenes are amazing.
Great character designs, some moments were quite funny

I love the art style of this game. Cartoonish but adorable and playful. Girls are genuine, beautiful and cute. Facial expressions are done well also. For the art, I would gladly dish out 5 stars..

However,
Scenes are a bit repetitive but since it has to be drawn every time, I imagine it's harder to show various angles or perspectives than 3d games, so I can understand some repetitive scenes and lack of variety in sex scenes.

The story.. is SLOOOOW. In order to advance in the main story line, mandatory side quests need to be completed. And while there are abundant side quests available, they are meek and uninspiring. You just slowly get nowhere.
Boring dialogs are a big reason to this lack of interest. They are repetitive and bland. Just empty banters going back and forth that just feels like it's stalling for content.

Lack of music seems like a missed opportunity since the atmosphere of the game is perfect for some light hearted music. There are games that can do without music but in this case, music feels like a must and the game feels empty and half-finished without it.

The final major downfall of the game is the MC. The dude is a moron. I feel bad I'm supposed to be this guy in the story. Abundance of WTF decisions and stupid expressions just rubs me the wrong way to the point that I have to save and quit the game to cool off before continuing. Maybe a first person perspective would have been better, I don't know, anything but his stupid face.

I felt really good about this game when I started, but the experience turned sour pretty quickly. Hope the game improves with time so I can genuinely enjoy it again.

Beautiful art and a fun story!
I like the different characters and the buildup of the story so far. Definitely want more of Gomira!
As a side note, you might consider some sfx/ voices for the actual sex scenes. Not too much, but to give it that sense of dynamism
keep up the good work

Unbiased What a Legend review

Firstly you're wondering how the hell is this unbiased!?
Let me break it down as a ex patreon backer.

Pros
-Amazing writing and dialogue, very witty sense of comedy that suits a fantasy/adventure VN nicely.

-Art is godlike, say less.

-Game is not buggy at all and everything is very polished. The only sandbox style game that I approve of.

-Easily the top 2D game on this site.


Cons
-Unjustifiable waiting times, you are looking at 1 update per year.
Last update featuring the gypsy lady was also not that good, it felt very short.

-One update clears one Li at a time base off patreon votes. Currently this game will not be finished until 2040 given the ensemble size.

-Sex scenes needs more variety in terms of angles and animation. Right now its just undressings. Not worth waiting for when your Li gets only like 4 variations of the same scene.


Overall this game excels in what it does but as 2D games go development takes longer. However, you deserve to read an honest review and right now this game's updates are atrociously long without the content to justify for it. Currently we are over a year already with nothing to show. But let the delusional community get on your ass the moment you speak the truth.

I've essentially stopped backing because if you are that is about paying $4-6 (depending on your tier) and upwards per month for 12 months. That is basically almost paying $40-70 a year just for one more girl to be playable for 10 more minutes. Keep in mind Magicnuts have a patreon income of €7940 (euros) per month! All that money for 1 Li per 9-12months is highway robbery.

This game is very bad.

The gameplay and quests are terrible, it is far too linear for a sandbox game and there are too little locations, the quest are always too long and are moatly juat go there to get that item so a fetch quest awful.

The main and side stories are very badly written and just boring and predictable.

The characters are all very boring and I couldn´t connect with any of them. The main character is also just the worst I really hate him and his whole plan is to go tothe big city to lose his virginity this one of the worst character motivations I have ever seen and that from the main character how should I like him? He is also too dumb and weak and he has the cliche that he is the "chosen one".

The art is very boring almost all character try to look too realistic and just look boring because of that, there were some characters that looked nice, lord hammerdick looks very cartoonishly evil which is fitting, the guards have very good eyes, and my favorite design is the wish tree he looks like a old disney character but everyone else boring.

The sex scenes are total garbish the animations look very robotic and they are far too short and good dirty tals doesn´t exist either, they are also very vanilla.


I really don´t like this game, atleast it isn´t too long or complicated so atleast everyone can try it.

What a Legend! is definitely a legendary game, just like its name says. It has it all, an interesting and unique story, wholesome and witty characters, charming surroundings, and beautiful, sexy models. The artwork is top notch, very original, and gives the game an overall dreamy feel. The game mechanics are simple, the writing is very realistic and humorous, making the plot very easy to follow. It's not hard getting into this game because of the general high-quality of the design and production. I have been enjoying it some time, and I am looking forward to future updates.

If I wanted to sum up this game in one sentence, it would be: "I came for the porn and stayed for the plot (and the porn)."
Welcome to the world of What A Legend, where our heroic protagonist will find himself on an unexpected adventure that will lead him to discover a new world and his destiny, as well as a plethora of charming female characters that our hero will help in various troubles and seduce. Although the game is incomplete, the amount of content currently playable is truly remarkable, as well as the amount of characters and erotic content to unlock. The game itself is the classic vn, where our only freedom will be to choose whether to continue the main story or one of the many side-stories (and in what order the latter): so don't expect anything in the gameplay. On the other hand, the narration, the dialogues, the jokes and the rhythm of the adventures of our hero and his companions will never bore us and indeed will always be ready to surprise and amuse. All capped off by a wonderful art department and delightful erotic scenes. The only weak point of the game is the music, which is very banal and repetitive, but even this can be neglected if desired. To conclude, What a Legend is an experience that is worth living and enjoying and if you can, support the developers, who are doing a really good job.

really impressive game. gorgeous drawings, humorous scripts i've never seen before here. other systems also look very clear. definitely worth keep watching Artwork is great and I found it to be pretty entertaining. Had a few good chuckles at some of the scenes. Will definitely keep an eye on this one.

This game is great all around, the artwork is god-tier and the sex scenes are hot af.
The humor is great and the story is both funny and captivating.
The gameplay is just point and clicking, but that's enough, , my only complain would be that there is not more of it.

WHAT A LEGEND! REVIEW
I saw that everyone was talking about this game, so I decided to give it a go. I had a couple of hours of fun gameplay, and I enjoyed the overall dreaminess of this game.
I will be reviewing the game in the three following sections:
1) The content
The game has a whole fictional kingdom and realm. The details in this game are remarkable, and the story is nice, so it kind of reminds me of some fantasy cartoon. The characters are nice, and even the ones who are not the main ones have their own story. The story is light, and the writing is humorous, so I really like how they've done it.
2) The visuals
Although I am not really a fan of 2d games, this one was very original and detailed, so I was really invested in the gameplay. I love the surroundings and the characters, although there is not much sex. Those scenes are not so creative, in my opinion.
3) The playability
This is a really fun game that can get you a relaxed playing experience. The topic is light, the story is simple, but interesting. I like the game mechanics and the possibility of creating your own avatar. Everything seems developed and makes the game easy to follow and play. It has some sounds and music, and I like how the dialogue was written. Still, the choices don't lead you into any direction, at least that's how it seemed to me.

Only one sex position per scene, very disapointing for a 2d game
The game just seems silent, hardly any game sounds or music, Just a bird chirp here and there
extremely long wait times for a 2d game to continue the story.
The story isnt really original, people are overhyping this game

Overall, I love how the game was designed and written. The dialogue is realistic, and it has the flow that it needs.

The characters are varied, with most of them being witty and humorous, just like MC. You can interact with numerous characters and go to different locations. Still, you have to be patient to get lewd scenes, but I didn’t mind that.

One thing that is a possible turn-off is the fact that the choices you make don’t really interfere with the story – it always leads you into the same direction.

The game also has nice music and sound effects, but the attention and care given to the details is what blew me away—the little things like clicking on the notice board near the well in the village, which allows you to see different ads that the villagers put online, and the foxes that are hiding in the bush in the forest (yes, you can pet them afterwards).

Planned tags: Pregnancy (optional), Furry, Monster Girl, Footjob, Harem.

There is no NTR in the game.
