Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game
The game looks interested, how's this game style go ? RPG? SRPG? CardTrading? or what?
It's a Card Battle game. I do not know how the PC version is going to work, since the interface is completely different from the mobile versions.
This was originally an all-age game on Gree, and the R-18 version copied assets from it, and added two extra card evolutions for the ero scenes (they also changed how certain things work which led to the game being easy to break). Due to this, the rarity of the cards was shuffled and they didn't introduce a lot of cards due to the extra work of making 2 more illustrations for the ero parts. Toward the end, they were just introducing the 3-stage cards from the original with the occasional 4-stage for some of the higher rarity tiers. A big difference is that the all-age version had bishounen characters since the main illustrator is a woman, but the R-18 one didn't introduce any of these characters that she drew.
I like the game because of the 3 main illustrators that contribute to it:

I did not really pay attention to the story, but the all-age and R-18 version are set in the same world but with different characters from factions that share different relations with others that you're aligned with. Crime Busters has the all-age main characters, so the story may be from their perspective, though I don't know if they'll continue with the original game's plot, or make a completely new canon.
@Creeping Terror:
The ero parts for the R-18 version are based off disciplining the antagonist characters by using bindings (e.g. ropes) until they quit being bad, so there's light S&M and fantasy rape* where they insult you for being gross and having a tiny penis until they're tamed, or whatever. Ero game logic. It depends on the character.
*Fantasy rape is different from rape, and more akin to surprise sex. An example would be you waking up in the morning to a cute girl laying next to you performing oral sex. She didn't get your permission beforehand, so it's rape, but it's fantasy rape because that's the kind of thing you want to happen. I don't particularly care for fantasy rape since I find イチャラブ to be superior.
I hope they add less of that kind of stuff, and keep it cute like the original all-age game. This is my favourite character/card (Ishtar):
I also spent all of my SR tickets I saved, and got these 3 (I need 4 more copies of each if I want to get their max evolution, hence my whole issue with this game):
I had around 200 special gacha tickets, but they removed the Special Gacha since August, so I can't spend them to see if I could get Christmas Fenrir or one of the other SR or UR characters I liked the design of. Bah... I was hording my tickets until they programmed a better interface for sorting through your cards, since it's so slow and tedious navigating through it so I can delete redundant cards, or find ones I want to work on.
As for Aegis, according to the interview in the fanbook, WankoP isn't certain that it will last for 1-3 more years (he's happy that it lasted as long as it has), but is looking forward to seeing that happen in the future. While it wasn't a secret, the team that worked on Aegis is working on nothing but Otome games currently:
I already knew this, but since the topic came up, Japanese players are now wondering if WankoP is a woman—hence the reason WankoP didn't appear in person during the conferences—and that the whole thing with the Prince spending New Year's day with the male samurai Kojuurou instead of a girl, and the rest of the male homo-eroticism wasn't just a coincidence, but was on purpose.
