Sounds like the second game is exactly the same as the first one. Any recommendation as to which is better if i only want to do one?

Half of these questions dont even get answered properly. And call me what you want. I was able to predict what the inside of the Pillar would look like well in advance. For the rest there was far too little information given to make anything but vague guesses. Its not like the story isnt interesting. But its not some mindblowing revelation of storytelling. At some point i was hoping Fia to be some form of a old artificial god. But that doesnt work in the context of the universe Eushully has created with these games. That would throw the entire worldbuilding out the window. My Wind never got high enough in level to get to these skills. Only reason she even made it to 40 is the consistent amount of XP given by healing. And with that shes 10 levels above the other 5 summons. I dont see any reason to use them when i can have Ior, Kishnir or Mikshuana run around the map oneshotting all but the biggest enemies. Or Lish tanking a whole room full while whitling them down on the counterattack. With Roseline standing behind her blasting away. But overall i was quite disappointed by the casters in this one. They have too little range, especialy on the AoE spells.

I have the music disabled. I could not stand it getting quiet everytime someone talked. I only played Himegari for an hour because at the time that was the limit of the translation. The big problem with the Elementals in Kamidori was their low statcap which made them useless past the first half. But that problem is in Amayui too. All 4 of them are crap. The stone one is only good for early game mining but even that is done with a single mining bracelet. Wind is the first flying unit. That has some use. And a healer is always ok. Its just a shame that spaming potions makes the healers nearly useless. The water one has edgecase uses on some maps because of the long range spell. And Fire is completely useless for anything. Its incredible just how hard the 2 ghosts, which are themselfes mediocre for actual combat, shit all over the 4 spirits in term of usefulness. What im not seeing is Mystery. Mystery needs something to brood over. This game throws the entire story in your face in the last 2 chapters. Aside from the introduction you get no real knowledge about the main storyline at any point inbetween. Compared to that all 3 of Kamidoris stories are more interesting. Even Emelita's which gets largely spoiled before you even play it. You are correct about Kami no Rhapsoy. It sucks. Really hard. Story, battles, scenes. Its a complete mess that i dropped in chapter 4 after about 20 hours. Never have i seen such a poor display of a main character.

That is interesting. Can you elaborate why? I have not played more than an hour of Himegari so i cant compare much but i would say Kamidori does most things better than Amayui.

An extra comment for anyone wondering about the MTL. The translation of the main story is fine. In the last 2 chapters there are a few sentences that are spotty but nothing overly cringe. However it seems that some of the NG+ and EX content has not translated been at all. Starting with chapter 3 there was one event labeld BUG in the fort and the first NG+ map in the Heavens Fall area has its intro text in Japanese. Sadly im not proficient enough yet to even get the basics of whats being said. While i dont mind a decent MTL i might have put this game on hold had i known that beforehand.

The game determines the RNG at the start of a turn. If you want another outcome you need to reload one turn earlier. Maxing out everything as soon as you are technicaly able to do so seem like a big waste of time. Especialy if you can get 4-6 times the amount of drops for the same efford later on. Heck. I broke down most of my equipment just to make the list smaller. What do you mean with building 5 of something for the purpose of upgrading? With the upgrades using universal currency you can break down whatever you want. At the start of the second playthrough some enemies drop 6 of the terrain bracelets. Or the enemies in the last 2 chapters. They start dropping You also can give every char the capture attack. Its not very useful if they have low int. But almost any kill can be a capture at that point. Going for full upgrades in the first playthrough is not what i would do. With the cloneunits you can have Tia and Roseline clear every map the second time through. But im also largely ignoring the Spirit upgrades. They are shit units. If i wanted to do that id clear the map, put chars next to each Vortex and just "end turn" three times before buttsexing the fresh spawn. I do not quite understand complaining about grinding if you decided to do the grinding. Is it too grindy. Probably. But filling out the list does not give anything worth the efford.

If you know you are a completionist then you know what you are getting into. I would not hold that against this game in particular. Its not the first game to do this. Its not even the first Eushully game to do this. Even in Kamidori i didnt bother completing the crafting list. And realisticaly im only using 2 weapons on each character. I leveled those. The Armor itself seems to be of negligible impact past the highest defense. Im sure you are expected to simply camp monster portals once you have those online. Assuming you have chars that can oneshot the enemy youd gain huge amounts of material. For reference im at 145 days and about to enter what could be the last or second to last area of the Pillar My characters have level 24 for the Fire and Earth Sprits to 53 for Tia. With most of the useful fighters around 43.

For how cheap this seems it has a stellar rating on VNDB.
-
Does this game really not have the option to turn of the music getting quiet during voicelines?
-
I give up. Ive played the Kaname route until shortly after the confession. I wanted to play a bit more to see wether atlest the sex scenes are useable but i cant. This game is is so mindnumbingly boring in every aspect. Its like someone wanted to make a young adult romance story in VN form and went with the safest option at every corner.
-
How does this compare to/stack up against Sengoku Rance? I played that game for a while long ago then gave up because its not good.
-
Of all the RPG style game this is the one i found the most promising. Lets hope my instincts were right.

I wanst even that bothered by the MC initialy. "Hes poor as fuck and borderline socialy inept but has the streetsmarts and urban survival down pat." could have made for an interesting combination. But no. It quickly becomes apparant that hes just your average idiot. The thing that pissed me of was the conversation and depiction with/of the dragons. If they are all at equal standing why do they have the concept of a ruler? Or a princess. They need universal agreement to do the thing and every voice has the same weight yet they mention which Dragon (the princess) opposed the enslavement. They treat the humans with zero respect, there is no way they would bother to do that. Someone tried to write up a story with godlike beings yet didnt bother to think about how they would act. Im tempted to speed through the game just to see wether the whole Dragon threat goes anywhere or is just used at the start as an excuse for the "story". As it stands i think they should have just made it yet another high school comedy nukige. As sad as it is, that might have been better.

I would never dare intrude on your holy duty. Even just having my assistance acknowledged is a great honor. On an unrelated note: I play this game till the first scene (which does not take long) and i dont think i will continue. The combination of a super serious end-of-humanity as we know it story while the more direct characters act like a permanent stand-up comedy just doesnt work for me.

One message for Omega. Delivered right here.

I can accept the savegame confirmation if the game is not too long or really good. But having the cursor jump around the screen on its own is a no-go. Its not about it being minor annoyance or not. Its disrespectfull towards the player. And its a regression. Weve gone past that. There is no reason for a newer game to have less options.
-
No options to disable savegame confirmation or the automatic cursor movement. Wanted to give it a try but nope. Not playing a game like that.
-
Working the same job as his idolized hero clearly has him flustered. I assume you have taken that into account for your evaluation.
-
Anyone else played this for a while and found it disappointing? Both as a game in itself and compared to Kamidori.
-
I just started playing this. Was a download from some other site which, to my utmost surprise, was in english. This is one of the games i had wanted to play once my japanese is at a useable level.
-
Is my english getting rusty or is that description all over the place?
-
Has anyone finished this and can tell me wether its worth reading in the end? Im currently after where Maddie follows the fake friend into the woods during the snowstorm and receives "help" from the ghost. There is some sort of story here but the build-up is sooo slow and the writing sooo drawn out that im getting bored. Thruout the last few scenes i keep wondering at which point the interesting stuff starts. The introductions for both the locations and the characters have long since overstayed their welcome.
-
So, what do i do with that evaluation if i did not like Nekopara? Didnt even manage to make it halfway through the first game.
-
The best thing about the first game was the amazingly high quality options menu. Lets hope this one delivers aswell.

I managed about 30 minutes before i had to shut the game down out of boredom and being annoyed at the MC.
