I don't know if i am the only one experienced this but the amdroid dowload for act2 on android is not working at this moment. I am mot sure if that is due to mega removing it, or if maybe it was to be released again for android at a later date? Either way much love to the creator for all the hard work you do, we all appreciate you and the work you've done thus far. 

It should be working now... With the new update :)

Thank you!

Here I am again, being honest on Act II. Took me long enough, I think. 

Well, I'm surprised that Act II brought mixed feelings about the game to the table. Some aspects that I covered in my review were slightly improved while others... to be honest got worse, hell I even have some VERY practical examples to use this time. Let's start with the Meanwhile scenes, shall we? These honestly got worse, man. 

For the practical example, I'm going to use the scene involving Bredita and Ayna. While I don't mind lesbian scenes in games one bit, my problem with that scene, which applies to every other Meanwhile scene, sexual or not, is that it is inserted ONLY for the "viewers pleasure" without adding anything to the story. And yet when Ayna gets down to business and confronts Bredita about turning Katarro on them and raising an army of undead (which were never brought up again, btw), the scene just ends. Seriously, these are just infuriating by now. I literally rolled my eyes at every single one of them. From this scene with those two never deciding what they actually want, if Bredita is a bad girl or not, to Pride and Lust turning Suntako into a demon, or Pride fighting some battle that seems to have nothing to do with what I was currently doing or with the story in general. *Sigh* I think I already made my point, if there's one thing in the game that I actually hate, probably even more than giant spiders, it's the Meanwhile scenes. 

Moving on, now with a topic that I didn't bring up in the review but now I desperately need to: the MC. 

Seriously, it took me a while to play Act II, but what happened between I and II that turned the MC into a dumbass? I literally don't remember him being some airhead getting teased by every single person in their plane of existance. Hell, I even expected Ataegina herself to show up and mock him a little (another chracter that is  still in the waiting room, I hope the plot needs her again soon...). Man, I'm really into the game, like roleplaying and shit, but it's hard to feel like some hybrid demon demi-god (or actual demon demi-god reincarnated, take your pick) when the character just makes himself into a clown most of the time, or is completely fine with other people making him look like one all the time.

Next topic: the battle system, and the big flaws in it. And I'll also throw in the now pretty much non-existant Freeroam.

Act II probably introduced one of the coolest support characters so far (No offense to KVLT): Arcanis. I really liked him, and of course the battles before meeting him were fun as well... or were they? I literally just spammed Terror and threw in Wraith once I got the "lucky" two turns with the opponent being scared. Illusion is way too OP, man. I remember writing in the review "what is the use of a stats system without practical use, right?" or something along those lines. But now I have to change everything: what is the use of both the battle system and stats if all you need to do is spam Illusion spells and throw in some Necromancy to recover the MP? 

Hell, when I actually was presented to Arcanis I had 147 points to redistribute and the choice was easy: 50 for Illusion, 50 for Necromancy and the remaining 47 for Battlemagic just as a formality. And I take the opportunity here to throw in the Freeroam system in the topic, first thought I had at that moment: "I literally will never return here again for the remainder of the game, better be certain of my 'playstyle' here and now". Literally through the entirety of Act II we only had some sort of Freeroam just once. Do you understand how broken it felt back in Act I and how worse it feels now? I didn't even take any future stat-based choices into account, which was a fuck up to me. If some situation similar to Ryo's father pops up again, I'm basically fucked. I built a weird Necro-Illusionist battlemage just to survive the crazy, luck-based battles by that much. If I use the wrong spells (i.e. literally any other than Terror and/or Wraith), I'm dead. All in all, I think I will need to either replay the entire game from Act I balancing skills and skipping battles (whatever that does to the game), or keep going like that to see where and how it will end. 

 Now, the two things that improved even by a tiny amount: the overall storytelling and relationship with some individual characters.  I won't stretch this because I might be making a fool of myself and nothing changed, meaning that I'm desperate to see some light in the darkness. 

I felt some kind of slow down on the pace, the scenes still go at breakneck speed, however this time it feels like the pieces fall into place in a more coordinated manner somehow. Like from the attack at Ryo's castle to the encounter with Chang, new interactions with Ryo, introduction to Kanmi, etc. 

Everything seems to flow a bit better, but still with rushed dialogues, short scenes and sex scenes being jammed down my throat without much context. Then there's the Meanwhile scenes which keep throwing me off... and it's funny how you often put them right after the MC teleports somewhere. 

As for relationship with characters, I felt a slight improvement after the scenes with Cerea. A little bit more of bonding, even if there wasn't much in the way of actual dialogues and exploring the character herself (come on, being a demon has to be interesting somehow) and much more in the way of just showing how she can feel the same way humans do. A small step in the right way is a step in the right way nonetheless.

To summarize this: my feelings are all over the place, but still a positive view on the game.

Before I end it, if you were serious about getting in touch on Discord here's my contact (made a second account just in case): MadRogue#9002 

I'll gladly share any ideas for the game.

Sent you a discord request, sorry for the delay ;)

That's some ungodly timing, man 😆

I literally just logged in to check another game's page and received your message here. Kthulian literally goes "I'm Godspeed" out of the blue.

Thanks :)
