I initially picked it up because of a net friend who got really into it and kept talking about it constantly. I saw it recommended every time I opened the google play store and looked like trash. It didn't seem very appealing but I guess I caved and gave it a shot.
My impressions; The story and world comes off like a Girls Front Line ripoff, but with gameplay that's admittedly more fun.
The art looks ugly and for some characters like it was made by AI. A lot of character designs can look retarded or ugly, many are just 2smutty4me. seriously half these girls look like they moonlight as strippers in their spare time or like they're into some BDSM shit (a couple you meet early into the story are literally into that). Enemies in the game look too busy design wise while also being monochrome like garbage straight out of a Michal bay transformers movie.
To be fair, I think these character designs are meant to appeal to a specific type of person, guys that think thick slutty girls with whips and chains and leather and stuff like that are hot, and that's just not me.
I played the game for a while to give it a chance, and was admittedly curious where the story was going, but I didn't make it that far before putting it aside. I tried a few times to get back in but the long updating process turned me away every time.
Then I saw they added this new character, Ranko Flora. She seems like a strangely nice character for this type of game that didn't really fit too well. I decided to throw everything I had at trying to get her, and that meant having to grind the game hard to earn the materials to roll for her (I'm a free player to the end.). She's the only thing keeping me playing now, she looks like she'd be snooty but she actually acts really cute and charming, so it irks me how the protag is very dismissive of her.
Playing more of this I found the plot seems to like emotional rug pulls, at least where I'm at so far. They set up something sad or even tragic and quickly after make it a non-issue. I've been told it gets a lot darker as it goes on so I guess we'll see how that goes, but for now it feels cheap, and as if narrative wise the story is being held back by the nature of the game (such as not being able to kill off playable characters).
