Thought I might like this game after a few updates, unfortunately I think it is just as boring as before. Not enough choices as well

He desperately needs a writer. I was getting angry at how stupid the mc was in that fight only to come here and realize the game has hidden buttons.
Sorry, as non native English speaker, what "hidden buttons" are you talking about ??? And I don`t mean those like "keys", they are not hidden imo !!!

This was really bad. Normally, I give games like this a fair chance, I really do. But this was garbage. Time lapsed, hidden button nonsense garbage. Disappointed.

I'm re-reviewing this to reiterate how much I loath these hidden button games. I can't overstate how much I despise them. 'A: Wow, that was a dark end.' B: Oh no, you just have to do this, this, and this.' 'A: And how do I know to do that?' B: Oh, those are hidden options. You have to look for them. But they only appear if you do certain things before hand. That are also hidden.' 'A:....Fuck off.'

Fair point... So you do not like paths basically that are misleading and just side shows... not relevant to the main story?
As you have said making a VN is hard and lots to consider. Acting Lessons does this well.
Na, I do not necessarily care about getting the main story what I care about is actually getting a story for the path I am taking even if that is a side story. If I get that at least I am satisfied.

There's probably about 50 different games that I play, only about 5 of them got abandoned at some point, or are on hold.
The rest of the games, of which majority are VNs, lets say they have a love route, corruption route and so forth, ALL of these games and VNs have stayed true to it, not in any one of them has the love or corruption or any other route turned out to be different than what it was supposed to be, they all have stayed true to the intended paths, they don't go from "Man I love her so much, I want us to get married one day!" to "I'm gonna rape her right here and right now and then let my boys have their turn!". If you've played games/VNs that have swayed from their promised routes and directions, then I don't know what you have played, but I haven't experienced none of that.
Na, I am not saying that it changes to that extreme. But I have had games in which my love path turned into corruption or blackmail path. Probably my mistake but I believe as an example the game "Family Therapy" had that problem for me where the path I thought to be love path turned to be blackmail path.

I might be wrong and you are correct that the changes in path I mentioned previously is exaggerated. Sorry for that but what I wanted to say is that I do not mind it. Consequences to actions is something I like even if unintended.

Got it, but what`s the point ??? The outcome is still the same !!! What is the point of those sceens (witch you see with hidden buttons) ??

Yeah I can get behind that, if choices and actions have real consequences, that's what I like. In example in real life, lets say you want to go on a "love path" with a girl that you really like, and you succeed in it in a sense that you both fall in love and all, that's great. But you can screw that up and make her even hate you if you make poor decisions and do bad stuff along the way, that is realistic. In many VNs however, if you've set on love path, you can't really screw that up anymore, the path and outcome is already more or less decided; the happy ending, haha. Very few games follow the very realistic formula how things goes, because every action does indeed have consequences realistically.

Here is another one !!!! I don`t mind, that game has secret "buttons", but they must can be found !!! You can`t hover every sceen after every sentence (if there is SB appeared), they MUST be able to find, exc. NO TEXT at those screens.
thanks for sharing.
looks like i missed one.
will play again

So I love this game and I decided to do a bit of work on the translation. I tried to keep the feel of the game while fixing up the text, 2 hours in and I almost got to the scene with the girls but I'd like to know what you think of it before I go any further.
