[As of day 3]
Based on the vast majority of the rewiews, I probably don't need to re-iterate all of the fundamentals that go into making a great VN, except to say that the dev for WVM has successfully laid out fundamentals that meet the standards of the individual best VNs, meeting or exceeding them individually, perhaps in every category. The (begging of a) narrative is perhaps only beat by veqvil's abandoned project (name escapes me at the moment) just because that story was a pretty ingenious and captivating original sci-fi.
I think the overwhelmingly positive reaction is because the story engages with pretty much every element of male romantic/sexual fantasy, you are
-provider
-protector
-emotional rock
-true leader (build up those around instead of belittle and dominate)
-ladies man
-near demi-god of athletisicm, virility and endowment
Because of this and the behavior of the women towards the MC I've seen some say that this is ridiculous and makes no sense, that a near messiah like character is silly. To that I would agree, but that in context with a harem-based "hero" story I don't think there is any other way to explain a harem without coercion, magic powers or bloodlines.
Excited for new releases, and I really hope that success doesn't encourage the dev to rush anything, as great things take time and I wouldn't want him to burnout with the potential this project has like so many others.
