This game is my litmus test for new relationships. When I say I love a cripple dating simulator and they are into that, I know to be careful
(It has waaay too much dialogue/monologue that doesn’t move the plot or bring any new information to the table, imho. With writing being the one part where an indie game can excel, I find that a bit disappointing. Man, I’m happy I can share this opinion here, where people may actually know the game)
This is unfortunately typical of visual novels. The line level sentence-to-sentence prose is rarely even adequate, and often what they choose to describe is already shown as an image on the screen. The best ones, I feel, simply omit the prose and have only dialogue, and if they choose to describe an already-visible image, the description ought to tell what isn’t already available as visual information.
