What do you think? Are you going to play it?
I have been seeing the walkthroughs cross my Mastodon feed, but interestingly enough I have not seen the reviews on my Mastodon feed. Maybe just bad timing?
This has been on my list of games I was tentatively excited for! I have a backlog to chew through but I read the reviews and nothing is “hard nope” enough to make me decide to not play this.
Although some of the decisions MC makes according to otomekitten make me go “??”
And in her defense, she’s only 17 and was raised very sheltered. But still… sometimes, she just… really isn’t… logically thinking through her decisions.
Damn, I was raised sheltered and a lot of dumb decisions made by sheltered teenage MCs are ones I would know better than to make at the same age… I wonder if sheltered Japanese teens are just different, if I was an atypical sheltered teenage girl, or if they are not trying to be realistic and are just using “sheltered” to paper over “why MC does these dumb things that also happen to allow her to trigger plot things like conflict or meeting that one character”.
Finding out this has a reverse harem ending also from the otomekitten review sweetens the deal though ;)
