there are nothing wrong with the engine
you downrate it just cos u can't cheat
Yeah. Defenders as they are. Don't need cheats to enjoy games, you know?
I can be wrong about bad engine, but looks like it's more about dev than engine.
And engrish is nothing, i'm pretty much used to it to the point when i don't even notice it.
What destroys this game is fucking black waiting screens. Wanna check your stats? 3 sec to open. 3 sec to close. Wanna move somewhere? same 3 secs. Pressed action button but didn't find anything to interact? 3 sec to wait. It slows game down to the unbearable point. I want story to progress, not the black screen to witness.
Action button - sucks.
There are some crazy amount of times of day - sucks.
Relationships tab - worst i ever seen.
Since it's not ren'py there is no rollback. Is it big problem? No. But text log somehow doesn't work for me most of the time - sucks.
There is more but they are mostly minor compared to those above.
CG and plot is pretty good but again, It's not interesting at all with this technical bullshit.
If you can bear all this for sake of plot - congrats, i'm happy for you that you can enjoy it. But for most people it's just a bad game.
Btw to the cheats? Save editing doesn't work too? I doubt it but if dev somehow managed to block it too i will assume that he knows what he created.
