I agree with much of this, but as a H game I give it a slightly lower score. My gripe is that strangely enough, it uses H content as a vessel for the non H content, which I think much more work was put into. I felt like there were huge dry spells of no hentai in the latter half, and many missed opportunities.The latest version of this game just came out. It looks like they fixed the monster encounter rate, which was probably too high to begin with lol. I reuploaded the game to version 1.08 for those that want it, just send a PM my way.
As for my thoughts on the game, it's an extremely strong entry for this circle's first RPG. You can tell a lot of time and effort was put into it based on the prologue alone. It was probably the most emotional I've ever felt playing one of these games. If you've been playing RPGMaker games for a long time, it's common to feel absolutely nothing from these types of games. However, that prologue was devastating. It reminded me so much of the 3rd Act of LiliTales. And there aren't many games that can be compared to LiliTales. LiliTales is almost in a class of its own.
King Exit has a few flaws. One is that the monster encounter rate was much too frequent. Fortunately, it looks like they fixed that in the newest version of the game. Second, the combat in the game could be better. It's a pretty simple turn-based affair that you expect from RPGMaker games, but this game was so ambitious that the lack of innovation in combat rang false. Lastly, and this one is probably more minor, is that there's a lack of voice acting that I've almost come to expect in the last couple years. Don't get me wrong, it only detracts from the experience a little bit. But it affects the game in a way where instead of giving it a perfect score, it's simply just a 9 out of 10. It's a great game. It's basically Hunter x Hunter before you get to the Chimera Ant Arc. My only disappointment is that it came really close to being a perfect game. Regardless, it's still one of the best games of 2016.
I'd recommend playing the game with Visual Novel Reader and using its configuration to go through Google Translate. Google's machine translation has improved substantially over the last year or so, and you can probably decipher around 75% of the story by using VNR.
The lack of voices hurts the game.Five hours in the game and the story was really astounding... I dont know why the sales are so bad.. maybe because many big names are released at 22 Dec too . It's really hard to find a good games like this even though i have played many of VX games, This is a good game if you can understand the story and playing without the walktrough though. Hope the circle make another game in the future.
one save is before last chapter, one is after final bossWould anyone happen to have a save file nearing the end of the game?
Thanks etigoya reliable as always!one save is before last chapter, one is after final boss
It's just a CG hunt? That's a big shame, it seemed worth looking into...So is this just CG events, no BF or anything? If so, than judging by what's on exhentai, can't say I'm very impressed. Someone compared this to Lilitales and while I don't think Lilitales is as great as the people here seem to, it at least have quite a bit of H-scenes and some of them fairly decent.
So it is about the story and gameplay rather than H-scenes? I doubt I would be impressed by the story since I don't cut these game any slacks just cuz they're H-games. The story either has to enhance the H experience or be able to compete with any story (H or not). Same goes for gameplay.
I think that's kind of the problem that I touched on in my earlier post. It's good enough to be stand alone without the hentai. But people don't play hentai games just for the story, and the hentai aspect is standard fare with some problems with progression and zero corruption. Regardless of how good it actually is, if you go in expecting one thing and it gives you something different, it's going to hurt your impression.This game is all about story and characters!
The only things holding it back are rpgm and the exponential difficulty growth that becomes very annoying toward the end, requiring either grind or cheats.
Remove all the hentai and this is still one of the best RPG stories i have played in the last 10-15 years, and i would love for it to be translated so that people could understand just how good it is, although i suppose it's not gonna happen since it's pretty text heavy and doesn't seem to be all that popular. Such a shame.
That is a really good way to put this.Regardless of how good it actually is, if you go in expecting one thing and it gives you something different, it's going to hurt your impression.
