VN - Ren'Py - WVM [S2 Ch. 1 Ep. 13 B4] [Braindrop]

Very good game, with an excellent story. Characters with a good background and good development so far. The game introduces a mix of romance and sex, along with drama that doesn't make VN too repetitive.

This game is a general microcosm of the world we live in. Everyone gets a participation trophy, everyone is special, success is guaranteed and there are no consequences to your actions. VNs all have a degree of escapism and separation from reality but this takes it to another level. Every woman is docile, willing to sacrifice her very personality at the altar of sex. The MC has no flaws, overcomes all issues and is a general plank of wood.

I know the response to this is that it is one of the most popular VNs out there so I have to be an idiot to not like it. I actually see all the popularity in this game as a symptom to the bigger problem of a world where no expectations and instant gratification is all that matters.

I will say the initial story had somewhat of a decent hook but now it is just plain garbage. Renders are cute and unique so it was worthy of 2 stars but man people, develop some standards and stop throwing money at garbage you only incentivize more garbage.

This game is just fantastic. I had no idea what I was getting into when I started it up the first time, but it became one of those games that was impossible to put down , like a good book. I don't know at what point I stopped even caring about the amount of sex in the game (and there is a lot) and became engrossed with the story.

Anyone giving this game a bad review is doing so based on very specific complaints because the overall package is one of the best ive played on this site.

It's not going to win any awards for "most realistic" scenario, but the amount of heart in this game makes it stand out from the pack.

That seems like an odd thing to say about a porn game but at some point I stopped viewing it as a porn game and just got wrapped up in all the characters and how heartwarming and uplifting the way they interact with each other was.

Found myself genuinely caring about each of the girls and the MC is just an all around great guy which was refreshing. yes there are a lot of women throwing themselves at him, yes its unrealistic, but the MC is likeable enough that you can suspend your disbelief. Just the three in the promo graphic at the top of the page are enough to make this game special.

And Jaime, at first was rolling my eyes a bit "oh here we go, stuck up prude girlfriend" and then bam out of nowhere she is winning "Best Girlfriend Ever" contests all over the place. Just absolutely the best girlfriend character in any game ive played on this site.

Shauna is also just adorable as fuck, could totally understand why she is the MCs best friend (and more), shes the kind of girl anyone would be lucky to have in their life and that most people would hunt down and kill anyone who hurt her.

and Azel (hated the name so changed it) is just the most caring, selfless, loyal, kindhearted and warm character that its impossible not to feel what the MC feels for her. if everyone had a mom like her the world would be a better place.

The game just makes you feel good after playing it, the characters are lovable and the story is upbeat and happy even when dealing with some heavy subjects. Yes there is a lot of suspension of disbelief required over certain topics. like im pretty sure the game is set on Mars given how long the days appear to be based on how much you fit into each day. but after about 15 minutes into the game you stop caring.

This game was nothing that I was expecting when I downloaded it and has become one of my favorites to date. with so many characters you would think it would be confusing to follow them all or easy to find a favorite, but each one of the girls is easy to find loveable and memorable in their own way even the more side character ones who have had some time to develop are lovely.

Just such a refreshing upbeat heartwarming change from all the darker and grittier stories a lot of the better games on this site go with. Not something I generally expect in an adult VN

The Most Overrated Adult VN on Patreon(and here) PERIOD

Given how insane amount of money the Dev makes and how much people love this game almost unanimously; I had to write this review knowing that people won't like my views at all. Well everyone has their free will.

The game started off as a bit rough at release, specially the renders and facial expressions. But I understand that this is Dev's first project so I overlooked those. Since then the renders have become a lot better in recent releases. Dev has learned a lot and the twin Titan RTXs help. Now the renders really shine and that's why my rating is not one star but two.

Now onto why the other 3 stars are missing unlike almost every other review.

1. Every single girl/woman in every single render has one expression. Puppy eyed brainwashed face looking for the master to throw a bone. It creeps the hell out of me. I wish it had magical mind control in story to justify that but no; it's just MC's personality and his dick. The Earth revolves around the latter.

2. Zero consequences. Seriously, this is not a game of choices. The only decision making this game offers is whether or not you want to sleep with a girl. THAT'S IT. And speaking of consequences, SPOILER ALERT; MC's starting GF and later childhood friend turned GF, both become Pimps. There's no other way to put it when they literally ask you which girls you wanna bang and they are super excited for that to happen. Only the money transactions are missing. Oh wait! MC impregnates women for money. Ah Doi!

3. So you got every single girl and everyone is happy with you banging literally(Wait, not literally cause read later points) everyone else. YAY! Awesome. My counter is that every Honey select based Japanese style Harem game does it hundred times better with a mild sense of believability sprinkled in. Here, please turn off your brain and imagine you live in a different galaxy where all women live only to please you. You are the Alpha and the Omega. The only girl I liked was the purple haired girl that was bitch to MC at start but then she became MC's sister and her character was murdered and turned into a mindless drone like every other girl in the game. People talking about different girls having different personalities is the biggest load of crap I've ever read in my life. Also a harem which now seems with 20+ girls??? MC having sex with 5-6 different girls in one evening, even though he was physically injured and recovering? YUP YUP YUP! Absolutely believable.

4. STOP overly sexualising the two mothers and long lost sister if you are adamant on following Patreon rules. Those kisses are not innocent. They are getting creepier each time they do it. And what's with focusing on their boobs and butts all the time if you are not doing incest at all. Reminds me of Will Ferrell making out with his Dad in Daddy's Home 2. I guess the game needs a Comedy Tag.

5. Finally the story. Well nuts to that. I started skipping when I realized nothing matters. When the game started I had so many theories running in my mind. "Is MC gonna cheat with his best friend?" "What will be the consequences?" "Will his first GF leave?" "Is this going to be cheating vs being good guy kind of game?" dot dot dot As I said, nothing matters. Add a Princess who lives in a basement and whom you'll bang in future cause that's exciting, right? Also what's up with all women sleeping with mc on one bed clothed? The mother of a kid you once played basketball with is there too? Is it just the craving for warm flesh grinding on top of MC? I had wet dreams like those when I was five. Here again, it's just creepy. And that's the one word I can describe this whole game with, "CREEPY". Not a single older woman has a husband(or they don't care) and all younger women unlocked their chastity belt just for MC. So cool.

Conclusion: This is the VN equivalent of "TWILIGHT" or "Fifty Shades of Grey". Sex sells and people pay for it more when it's overdone. The game is popular in the same way "Billionaire Handsome Vampire/Warewolf" based romantic books make the highest amount of money cause women love those. Same principle is applied here. I guess this is what men(and also some women) like. Sigh!

This game started very nicely, ive been playing since the first release and it was one of the few ones i waited anxiously for the next update; but lately quality dropped a lot and more than that, it became really boring. Some scenes from the recent updates are laughable; plus every girl throw themselves at the mc like he is the only male on planet, everyone loves him and cant live without him after a couple days.
Recent updates made this game below average and forgettable.

Brilliant VN game.
Just Amazing! This is now my 2nd favorite just behind Being A Dik but has way more sex scenes.
So many girls, what's not to love? Thankfully the MC has unlimited energy so no one gets left out.
Great story and great girls!
Anyone who doesn't rate this 5 stars seriously needs to re-evaluate why they play these games. I'm sick of people complaining about lack of realism, if I wanted boring real life and an average penis I'd just look at myself in the mirror. This is highly enjoyable escapism at it's very best.
I salute the dev BD, you are a genius!
Can't wait for the next update.

- Diversity of models (for all tastes ) i really appreciate this
- Great characters (Each one with his own style and personality)
- Good story
- Overall Excellent game for me

Excited for future updates.
(Hoping for some action with Azel, Harper or Wendy )

Best harem game right now, hand down.

Realistic? Nah, but provides great variety and decent story/sex balance.
Good options to choose, would be great if there was more kinks or if you could go down slightly a darker path at least with some girls (mc be far to mr.nice guy imo) but yeah all around should be higher rated. Enjoy

I dont really mind games where the protagonist can have more than one interest, but if the number of girls is so numerous that its impossible to remember all of their names its probably too much. There are a lot of very different girls and basically everyone will find some that fancy their interest, but you wont get close with any of the side characters.

I started playing this game since version 9.4 and have generally liked it. HOWEVER, the further you go in the game, the more stagnant the game becomes and the more turned off by the game I become.

As for the renders, they are good. I have no issue with this. Actually, the only issue I did have was fixed by the developer by recreating the look of the character. The story....oh the story. It seems like it has taken a huge left turn from what the game was once centered on (which was college basketball). This backdrop seems to not even exist anymore. The massive amounts of girls in this game also leaves me baffled. I have just become numb trying to remember everyone and their story. I am fine with harems...BUT...there is no option to reject the girls. The MC is stuck with them. If the MC could gain the choice of rejecting girls, then my rating would go up.

This game has LOTS of potential. This is why I gave it an average review. It isn't horrible. Its simply irritating.

Pros

Unabashed sexual fantasy, slower pacing allowing as much 'action' as possible, unbridled seduction allows for some novel and interesting story developments and relationships, renders are very good, models very attractive and have attractive facial features and are unique looking, the hair of models is very nice, Thoughtful 'progression' system with courting the sexual partners,

Cons

Environments feels lifeless making the MC's college Harem feel like it exists in a vaccum, 'Harpers' skin is too dark, it has a certain wow factor because of the never-ending Harem but it eventually becomes stale because there is literally nothing you can do to not end up fucking all the women, the story is also pretty lack-lustre and that feeds into the lifeless environments.... obviously most VN's have a pretty bare-bones story as it just provides a backdrop to the funky-times but there's bare bones and then there is this. There is nothing that suggests this isn't 100% babe fantasy which doesn't offer much dynamism to the experience.

If this site had a list of "Greatest Hits" like PS2 games did this one deserves to be on it.

The women are all 10/10, storyline 8.5/10 and no grinding or hoping and waiting for something new to happen. Only issue is the women I think are the sexiest are taking the longest to fuck lol

I very rarely write reviews, but as I've probably spent more time playing this game than any other game on here, I figured I'd give it a shot. I've followed this VN pretty much from the start, and was a long-time patron. Braindrop is clearly a hard-working dev, and is as interactive with his supporters as any I've seen. Had I left a review of this game 12 months ago, it might have been a 5 star rating, but as each new update has come out, the appeal of the game for me has slowly but steadily dropped.

First, I'll offer what I find to be the game's major PROs:
* The main premise of the story. I found the main story - the MC being a massively hyped athlete attending a small school where he is put on a pedestal - interesting and engaging from the start. In most of the games I've played with a school setting, the MC is an anonymous nobody, if not viewed by his peers as a wimpy loser. Having the MC as an admired and respected character is a nice change of pace from those other games.
* The MC is likeable. Yes, some people may find him to be too much of a God-like character, where everybody immediately loves him and wants to have sex with him, but I prefer it to how so many other games give us an MC that is a creepy pervert who tries to manipulate the women around him into his sexual desires. This MC is neither a pushover nor an asshole, and has genuine concern for the feelings of those around him, including the few characters he's not actively having sex with.
* The renders and animations, for the most part, are very good. There are a massive amount of female characters, and most of them are very attractive.
* The writing is clear and understandable. While I'll address some of my specific issues with Braindrop's writing below, I appreciate that the massive amounts of text and dialog are grammatically correct and in perfect English, with only a handful of typos sprinkled in. It's clear that the dev has consistently taken the time to proofread everything before publishing, something not enough devs do.
* The balance of plot and sex scenes. I think for most games, one of the hardest things to do is find the right balance of sex and story. I think Braindrop has done this better than most, as this game has a ton of very high quality sex scenes, and rather than simply throw them in with no lead-up, for the most part there is plenty of dialog and story in between.

There are a couple things which somehow are both PROs and CONs:
* The number of characters. The dev is incredibly ambitious with the sheer number of characters in this game. As it's the epitome of a harem game, having a lot of different women/sexual partners is generally a big plus. However, and let me preface this with saying that I know plenty of people disagree, for me there are simply too many characters. It's difficult to keep track of who each of the girls are, and what their backstories are. With each update, I find myself having to replay large portions of the game again simply to try to remember who is who. Possibly adding a tab or button in the game that displays a roster of characters and brief synopses of their backstory/relationship with MC would remedy this particular issue.
* The numerous sub-plots. I like that there is significant depth to the story, that there is not merely one single plot line, and that multiple characters are having to deal with particular challenges or conflicts. However, much like the previous bullet point, due to the sheer number of characters, it becomes difficult to track each storyline, as there are often hours of gameplay between a plot point being mentioned. For example, I honestly am having a hard time remembering when the last time anything related to actually playing basketball, which is presumably the main theme, has occurred.

The CONs:
* Many of the story lines are either absurd or stupid, or both. For me, the MC's back-story, aside from testing our ability to suspend belief, is both convoluted and simply not interesting. I don't expect a porn game, especially a harem one, to be particularly realistic. If I did, as someone else cleverly pointed out, the title should be changed to "NCAA Violations: the Game."
However, the fact that a number of people from MC's past, who he had barely any memories of, somehow came back into his life independently and through sheer luck within a couple of days, and immediately are constantly telling each other how much they love one another, is hard to get past.
The one story line that I have the biggest issue with is MC's decision to try to have a baby with Jamie. To be fair, I am not somebody who has a pregnancy/breeding fetish (whether that's because I have a child, and am well aware of all of the non-sexy aspects of pregnancy, I can't say for certain), though I generally have no issues with pregnancy in these kinds of games. That said, the sub-plot where the MC is being paid by Rachael to knock up her clients works well for this game IMO. Similarly, if one of the older characters, like Rachael or Veronica, etc., wanted MC to impregnate them, I think that would work fine for the plot. However, I just can't get over how ridiculous it is that two teenagers with no jobs who are in their first week of college think it's a great idea to try to have a baby right away, and that nobody seems to think there is anything wrong with this plan. Even with all of this, if the pregnancy route was optional, I'd be able to overlook the absurdity of it. I am fine with this VN being linear and having few meaningful options, but I wish this was a storyline that could be avoided.
FWIW, I also think the Talisma plot-line is pretty stupid and annoying, but that may just be me.
* The often mind-numbing repetitiveness. At least with the last few updates, the advancing of the game has been a series of virtually identical conversations and events. The MC is with a group of girls, asks one of the girls if they can talk in private (or vice versa), gets halfway through their conversation, and then gets interrupted by another girl who wants to talk (and who usually has been already told that the MC wants to have a conversation with the previous girl and will talk to her later).
Similarly, in the last update, the MC's insistence on trying to get each of the girls to declare that they are officially his girlfriend seemed both repetitive and childish.
* Trying to distinguish between characters. As I mentioned above, the sheer number of girls can be difficult to keep track of. What makes it exponentially harder is that for some reason, the dev has decided to have all the girls wear identical outfits. I don't know whether Braindrop simply didn't want to have to spend the time rendering different clothing for each girl, or wants there to effectively be a uniform for all the members of the harem, but it makes things slightly confusing.
* The incredibly cringy dialog. Honestly, all the "BruBru" and "Cedey" dialog is so painful to get through it has made me want to delete the game. Similarly, if I go through the rest of my life without having to read "Mwah," it'll be too soon. Additionally, the fact that MC's primary girlfriends have to constantly come up to him, give him a kiss and tell him that they love him and he's the best boyfriend ever, has gotten beyond tedious.
* Certain characters' appearances. While I acknowledge that it has to be difficult to create so many different characters and try to make them look different enough that they are distinguishable, and I think by and large Braindrop has made the girls look good, a few of them look weird to me. I know this may not be a popular opinion, but Jamie in particular, with her cartoonishly large eyes and bizarrely shaped lips, is off-putting.

Ultimately, for me this game is much like a TV show (like GOT, for example) that started off really strong and got you hooked, then stagnated or petered out in quality in later seasons. But, since you've already invested so much time into watching, you find yourself compelled to stick with it until the finale, just to see how things get wrapped up. I still find the game interesting and worth playing, and will likely continue to play as updates come out in the future, but I am not nearly as high on this game as I was in the earlier chapters.

I have followed the game since the beginning and due to the dissappointment I have experienced recently I decided to write a review.
First, it is important to say that the game started really good and looked promising! The game has great renders, had an interesting story and some interesting characters as well as decissions that appeared to affect the story.
However, there has been a huge downfall in the quality of the story starting by the main issue, there are too many girls cbeing constantly introduced to the point in which is impossible to remember all of their names. On top of that none of the recent additions really bring anything of value to the story. What this causes is a visual novel with a weird pacing in which no girl really shines or has a deep development outside of the "main" 2 girls.
After a while playing it also became clear that choices not had a real impact on the story outside of whether you wanted to bang a girl or not which is another upsetting characteritic of the game.
Finally, the story has totally lost its focus due to immense amount of girls that it has, its been more than a year and the mc has yet to play his first friendly basketball with the team (which is the focus on the story at the beginning)
If you dislike games in which the character is some kind of magic enthity which makes all the girls around him attracted to his giant dick without getting to know him better than that, please save your time and dont play this game.

Starting out this was a pretty good game, with amazing animations even though there were 1 or 2 I wasn't so fond of as characters, but given as the 2 I didn't like play a huge part in the overall plot they have a lot more development than others, its as the game expands the character list expands to an insane degree for a visual novel & they just seem to be there not adding much to the story itself other than another character for the protagonist to cheat on his 2 gfs with which is a shame because as I said at the beginning this was a promising game but with a growing character list that you don't care for it takes away from the plot which is actually interesting but is bogged down by random characters popping up which holts the plot from moving forward.

A number of my reviews have been taken down despite falling well within the guidelines as this is a legit review/critique of the game with ZERO "inappropriate" content or wording I stand by this review.

First of all, the game starts very well, the scenario is very good.

Then comes a point where we start to no longer support the attitude of the MC (Forgive and forget ...especially when we are betrayed regardless of the reasons...) And I would have preferred that we would have the choice whether or not we want to talk to the traitor (Besides, now that I think about it, do our choices really matter ? )

Not to mention that we start to have the impression that it becomes unmanageable with all these girls ( I know what it is a harem but this is abused ...)

Personal note: I didn't like Emiko's change of look in a bimbo ...
( No need to make everyone perfect )

I may be severe but it only deserves 3 stars...

One of the Best VN's out there. Its quality is unparalleled by any other. From the renders to the script down to the entirety of the story no other game I have ever played has managed not only to enthrall me with simple dialogue but also its lewd scenes. I know it's going to go into a weird face where much more will begin to be covered as it turns into each day encompassing several days but even if it takes 6 months in between updates if they are half as good as a single day in the game it will be worth an entire walkthrough each time. BD has clearly outdone himself as a top-tier developer and story maker.

The dialogue is cheesy, the story is confusing and nonsensical, and there are way too many characters to keep track of, but the women are so hot and sexy that "WVM" is, for me, a must-play experience.

This is a harem game cranked up to 11. Every girl the MC has or ever will know wants to have sex with him instantly and is also understanding of the fact that every other girl must want to, too. It's ridiculous, of course, but being the center of the universe for 25+ (I've lost count) super hot chicks is, I suppose, the ultimate hetero male fantasy, so ridiculousness is to be expected.

I only rate it a 3 because I find the dialogue so cringeworthy that I can't read most of it. Most of the conversations are simply characters asking each other if they're OK, promising to spend time with each other "soon," and occasionally diving into some backstory that reveals they're either related to the MC or are a long lost friend. It's idiotic. But, like I said, the women are just so damned hot and many of the sex scenarios are so erotic that I grin and bear it.

Another (sexually) frustrating aspect of "WVM" is that there is no incest (yet?), despite the fact that the MC's mom, stepmom, and sister seem desperate to join the harem. They are constantly napping with, kissing, and otherwise fondling the MC. Braindrop has written that there will not be incest in the game. If that's true, then why have all these relatives coming out of the woodwork and acting like they want to join the harem? It's either a move to tease the hell out of people who want incest or a set up for someone to make a mod? Regardless of the motive, I--for one--would love to see some incest content added.

First of all, love the game, even the "duck lips," they're adorable and they make the game a touch more distinctive.

A lot of the criticisms of this game are completely valid, the most recent update was like the first fifteen minutes of a sequel, loads of recap, loads of conversation, "figuring out" of the relationships between the MC and the harem. I get it, I didn't replay the whole game in prep for this update so the recap was nice, but it took a LONG time to get through. Loads of psychologizing trying to back up the notion that the MC is a golden boy who everybody loves.

All of that is valid. It is sometimes a slog to get through the verbiage to get to the sex.

Also valid is the criticism that this is not a realistic portrait of life on this planet, anywhere, concerning anyone, ever, period. The messiah figure in this, with the completely debauched girlfriend who encourages him to fuck his brains out in whatever direction strikes his fancy, to a completely agreeable population of sexy women, that doesn't happen.

This. Is. A. Porn. VN.

You want reality? Read Don DeLillo and quit complaining that contrived circumstances lead to contrived outcomes.

Plus, after any number of abusive MCs in these VNs, some folks might like to inhabit the persona of someone who seems genuinely to be a good dude. God knows there's not enough of them in the real world.

Thought the butts in the latest update could have done with another editorial look-see, but the renders are nice, the girls attractive and diverse in body-type. They're also very agreeable to the sex while each having some kind of story (I trust BD to fill in the missing bits as the story goes along).

The animations have improved over the span of the project and I am hopeful that, responsive to some of the legitimate criticisms leveled, that this will go on to be a fruitful and enjoyable project.

If not for the wordiness, this would have been 5/5

Okay so first of all i will start off by saying i have followed this game since the beginning, and i am very fond of it. Buuuuuuuut

There are some very glaring issues that I was hoping would get better in following updates, but sadly if anything have been getting worse over time.

ONE: the writing will sap your will to live. Not that it is bad, because it is not. It is written in very good English, grammatically correct in every way. That being said, it plays out as if the writer (self-inserting as the mc) is a 1st year psychology student with a Jesus complex. You are stuck in a loop (girl has minor problem ---> mc starts blabbering about analyzing feelings and how conversation will fix it ---> suffer through it for 20 minutes ----> girl walks away problem resolved and all anxiety apparently resolved by mc ----> enter next girl with minor issues ----> repeat endlessly while inserting pointless sex scenes randomly).

TWO: Unrealistic expectations. I love harem games, and i don't even particularly mind if they are somewhat "sappy". I prefer to "date" vn girls who have a strong emotional attachment to mc. This game does do a good job of conveying the girls feelings. However, As pointed out by other reviewers, the sheer number of girls that join the harem for little to no reason whatsoever, and the total lack of jealousy from any of them... just feels off to say the least.

to summarize: by writing the story as if your readers were little children that needed to be explained what support groups are and evaluating feelings and discussing them to deconstruct anxiety ... you insult your readers dude. Just write a story where people act in such a way that a reader understands the feelings involved without your explicit explanation.
