There are VNs with overpowered Gary Stu protagonists who have everything go there way and always respond in an ideal manner to every situation. And then there's this game, which takes it to such an extreme that it pretty much becomes parody, yet nails the vibe so well that it provides a hilarious and enjoyable read.
Destiny's Embrace has a similar core premise to other harem VNs with a fantasy setting, some focus around an "adventurer's guild", and a protagonist with some sort of great destiny. I can think of at least two other Koikatsu VNs with a similar premise off the top of my head; I can't explicitly state them due to cross-promotion review rules but I wonder how many reading this could guess them if I described them as: "VN: A" - also really good, but starts with an isekai, and has a more oriental vibe, and "VN: B" - basically abandoned despite raking in massive Patreon dollars. I can say that while I like the VN described in "VN: A" too, this one is already impressing me in similar ways despite much less content, and so far is more over-the-top and has a bit of a (light) maledom leaning.
There hasn't been enough interaction with all the characters yet to have a strong opinion on them, but the typical "harem" trope of girls falling in love insanely fast is exaggerated to the point where it becomes funny (in a good way). Most characters are likable enough so far, but I can't comment too much on their uniqueness or depth until there's more to read from each of them.
The visuals are excellent for Koikatsu - no weakness with aliasing or low resolution that lesser Koikatsu games suffer from. There are some unique textures and shaders in use that give the characters a different style than a lot of other Koikatsu games as well. While the character designs are quite unique across the cast, I admit I wasn't the biggest fan of them at first, but they grew on me as I played more. The backgrounds are mostly stuff I've seen from asset packs, but they are customized enough to add some interest (eg. lots of colorful characters walking around in the city, and such).
It's too early to say much about H-animations, but they are custom, and mostly decent so far (the first one was a bit stilted, but that may have been intentional as it was the protagonist's "first time") - there havent't been a wide enough variety of positions/scenes to judge it too much positively or negatively yet though.
I like the music selection a lot, and none of them are tracks I commonly hear in other VNs. They're mostly chill or upbeat tracks that are a good fit for their scenes, and the often over-the-top and humorous vibe the VN gives.
I'm not normally the biggest fan of the click-directions-or-doors-to-navigate style sandbox VNs, but so far it's fairly unobtrusive - hopefully it doesn't become too annoying later. I'd recommend the dev uses it sparingly, and only enough to get any additional desired scenes/dialogues across, as I am far from alone in the dislike for this kind of sandbox.
This is an very promising new Koikatsu VN and quite underrated in my opinion (not many Patreon subs yet) - I wish the author luck and hope the traction and support pick up quickly.
