WVM (v.0.10.0) is a conventional, overhyped harem power fantasy, a game with not much to offer, outside its length. To classify WVM as a game is a stretch, as there’s no gameplay of any sort, other than deciding which girls to pursue. There might as well be a on/off switch in the beginning of the game whether the player wants to fuck every character and love interest without consequences. There’s also no music or sound to speak of, and the animations are short, jittery 2-3 second loops. The sex isn’t erotic or visually appealing in the slightest. The renders vary from dull and flat (a shot of three girls standing around a hallway talking), to borderline terrifying (the tongue-kissing and those weird, creepy duck face expressions on Jamie). The decent and diverse character designs are wasted on those warped, exaggerated faces.
An upcoming update is supposed to remedy these shortcomings, however, there isn’t a definite date on the remastering process, which is long overdue and should take first priority over any updates offering new material.
The main story concerns basketball wunderkind, Ethan Moncree, and his journey at a second-choice college. He’s the star and saving hero of the fledgling WVM campus. Early on, Ethan is involved in a relationship with his girlfriend Jamie, and is tempted to cheat on her with his childhood friend Shauna. If he sticks to Jamie, the game allows you to have sex with the other girls without the residual guilt. If he doesn’t stick with one girl, this sets him on a path of least resistance, and the sluice gates open to all the college girls of every type, shy nerds and flamboyant cheerleaders. They all want to hug him after every single interaction all the time and pepper him with indecipherable babytalk. Later, Ethan is scouted by Rachael, a blond businesswoman, and through her work, he becomes an active sperm donor and an expert at impregnating women. Jamie becomes the loyal queen in this scenario, where she recruits women to have sex with King Ethan in a one-sided polyamorous relationship starring himself. Ethan is exploited not only by the higher institution of learning, but by everyone else, but he doesn't care. There’s also drama between the characters, not getting along with each other, and a series of bizarre coincidences regarding Ethan's backstory that's meant to add up to something, but this is just for appearance’s sake; everything works out in the end.
There really isn’t a plot to this game, just a loose series of contrivances to get a certain character to meet Ethan. The sports theme has no relevance to the story other than the location. The game is badly written, and unimaginative to the point where it seems every individual in the WVM universe are inarticulate, intellectually and emotionally stunted caricatures, with no fears or desires outside the immediate. It’s a power fantasy, except the MC doesn’t want any power. The game is plain as vanilla in terms of sexual kinks and fetishes (no incest), and lacking a sense propulsion or narrative drive. The tires spin endlessly in one place, as Ethan bounces from girl to girl with no clear goal in mind. WVM is in dire need of editing, the script could be cut down by half, and nothing of importance would be lost. The plotting is nonsensical and not thought out in the slightest. Every scene is written the exact same way, a conversation happens between one character, then another, until a sex scene happens. Character arcs don't exist, it feels as if Ethan wanders from school to home to bed, and back again, hoping he’ll find what he needs to find in the days allotted to him without any planning.
We never learn why the the main character is supposed to be so attractive in the first place. We don’t even know what he looks like. MC’s supposed to be a star, but he never plays or leads well during practice. His personality is uninteresting and dull. MC’s supposed to be a sex god, but he sucks in bed. There's never a moment where he offers any insights into why women chase after him, nor does he exhibit any qualities of a star athlete. For example, how does he handle the stresses of his unique situation, and manage his harem of women between his hectic career? Through his support system of girls who care about him for some reason? He’s a cipher, a total blank. Other than dreams and in the brief explanations we get from his step-mother, Azel, as well as Willow (his step-sister?), we never get a sense of who he is. In fact, we don’t get a sense of any characters. Every girl is interchangeable with the other, too. The description of a character from this game can be summed up by two characteristics: what they look like, and their relation to the MC: Harper is Ethan’s pale coach, Skye is Ethan’s tomboyish friend, Azel is Ethan’s kind mom, and so on.
With a game with so many characters, there is the expectation that a majority of them would be defined and have some psychological depth, but each scene of each day is a race for the mind-numbing sex. When the sex inevitably happens, since there’s no buildup to those scenes, nor any connection to the characters, we’re not invested in any of these characters. The sex scenes can hardly be called erotic. The game isn’t even good as pornography. It's a wonder anyone cares about this game. WVM is much like its title; WVM doesn’t stand for anything in particular, it’s just WVM.
