haha I used to play hot and cold as a kid and as I was watching, I was thinking we added things like "on fire" or "burning" when the word "boiling" showed up. So I guess I'm not alone.
I played up until the orcs so far where I forgot that I read in this thread that you need to run. Definitely a fan of H-scenes on losing so that was a nice touch. Was particularly fond of the BADASS you play as at the start and seeing what happens, makes me wonder about the threat Ren will have to face to reclaim her kingdom. I also like how it pretty much picks up right after the first game.
As I said earlier, and I stand by my comment, your art style has improved considerably imo. Not to mention, English Hentai RPGs are still lacking.
One thing I'm not sure I'm a fan of, is that when you defeat an enemy, they are only gone a few seconds and then come back. I feel this can lead to being overwhelmed as you try and explore areas....But I suppose it's still better than random encounters which are unavoidable.
I believe someone mention that combat was "too simple" ...whatever, Just don't make it "unplayable" like Rhode's fortress. That combat mechanic is abysmal. Combat should not take 5+ minutes a fight unless it's a boss.
