I have the opposite problem as you- The newgame+ stats are too high, and it really dampens the raising sim elements once you've got a good max-point starting pool to work from, especially once the % starts to raise. I would have much preferred a more modern goal-based prestige system.
It's not a strong negative though since the game is decently well designed and balanced around that. So far I haven't felt like I've accidentally power creeped myself out of difficult content or anything, and even on short ~1-2 hour playthroughs aiming for a specific goal I tend to find a lot of new dialogue. |

2021-02-17 at 00:43 | < report >i get frustrated on this game because i feel like i didnt progress at all so i resort to cheating by looking for the answer on the quiZ. but if you know what your doing it is more enjoyable but the problem is you skipped too much read teXt that you forgot which event goes.
i beat the objective of the game and get a 54% carry over. should i rate it 5.4/10?? just like the carry over.
if the carry over is 40% ill be less frustrated. |

Ironically that is apparently the only well-designed/balanced thing since the actual problem is the frustrating auto-battle gameplay which overstays its welcome, while the story, characters and H is as mentioned simply awful. Rather than outdated, '08 VNs already did often better.
It's also worth mentioning despite the wiki saying that one for the 2nd route needs to win the monthly tournament, three towers (from the 1st proper route) and visit a few times, it is apparently not enough so that is also time wasted. Games developed in such a way that one does not feel like wasting time anymore, they are designed to make wasting time fun.
Did you know that you can clear floors within less of a second if you hold Ctrl while battle speed is set to fast? Considering that simple tactics are the best (since the AI is retarded), trying to make use of switching priorities is actually counter productive. Never mind that you better battle as fighter, spell sword at most, rather than as mage. Speed is everything! Not casting one thou'.
(Most people obviously would play this blindly) and even then you can only increase it up to 50% IF you really know what you're doing on the first playthrough (At most you can only up it to 40% gain). Actually you can gain up to 60% but for obvious reasons you likely won't get all 2% per 30 floor increases with the worst ending stats.
My recommendation: (Re)play Kamidori Alchemy Meister, better gameplay, story, characters, H...
Heck, the H here is utterly disappointing not just because a lot of scenes are random pr0n books you get when inefficiently spending your time (oh and a whole week spend on shopping my behind!) but the vanilla x rapey scenes are short, CG variations are nil and as much as big nipples disgust me, the tiny nipple syndrome I ain't liking either. |

If you get yourself into the right mindset, it's fun. I think the tutorial in the game not mentioning how important it is to forget about doing anything of value in a playthrough and consider a playthrough more a part of the bigger picture might be at fault there. In the end you'll have looped around at the very least 20 to 30 times there. It's fast though. My gameplay time was probably between 20 and 30 hours as well.
Though that game has a completely normal ng+ where everything carries over, but in exchange you need to spend entire playthroughs on NOTHING but clicking on training for certain things.
I'm kinda curious how this much older version carries itself, but my backlog is too big for that. Really though, you need to have a different mindset when going at this game. Your goals stretch beyond a playthrough. Skipping text is your friend.Last modified on 2021-02-17 at 08:06 |
