Love Delivery

This title doesn't have a ton of negative reviews in English. Do yourself a favor and check out some of the Korean negative reviews using a translator. The main protagonist is an insufferable wuss from start to finish. The story is bland, with a lot of unnecessary drama coming from the MC not being able to stand up for himself. This is ostensibly a story of personal growth and self-improvement, but all of that is done off-screen in the stat management "minigame" (if you can even call it that), rather than being presented in the course of the main narrative. This stat management only gets in the way of the VN — there is no depth or choices tied to it, you just have to roll the dice on upgrades and save scum in order to clear the mandatory stat requirements for each subsequent chapter. I'm kinda baffled by the positive reviews here. This is a 5/10 title at best, with certain moments dragging it down to a 3/10. The only redeeming part is that the voice acting seems to be quite good.

Love Delivery is a romance visual novel that distinguishes itself not by reinventing the genre’s structure, but by grounding its story in an unusually candid and sometimes uncomfortable portrayal of personal failure and emotional growth. Developed by Cometsoft Inc. and published by Smilegate, the game follows a directionless young man whose life has stagnated into a cycle of low-paying delivery work, social isolation, and quiet self-loathing. A chance incident leads him into a small café environment that becomes the central stage for the story, introducing two heroines whose contrasting personalities anchor the narrative. What begins as a seemingly familiar setup gradually evolves into something more introspective, focusing less on wish fulfillment and more on the messy, uneven process of becoming a better person. The protagonist is one of the game’s most defining elements, and also one of its most divisive. He is not designed to be an ideal self-insert or an aspirational figure; instead, he is portrayed as insecure, passive, and often frustratingly indecisive. The writing leans heavily into this characterization, forcing players to confront his flaws rather than ignore them. This…

I didn't read anything before buying the game and I must say this guy is absurdly cringe and a loser like the thing says, it's so obnoxious for real, like I see this game as the loser is gonna be a loser always, what kind of thoughts do you have to only think ah it's a girl it's a girl bruh. So I only have a half hour read few of the stories and quit. But first impressions not looking good, I had initially bought this game because of the last screenshot of the game which shows like a raising simulator kind of thing, but from what I see it's just there purely for routes probably(I haven't played the rest of the game). From what I see you need to fulfill this to do that storyline and that thing does not impact anything at all no character development whatsoever. I guess you can buy it if you want to experience it I'm just reviewing with my thoughts here.

I don't get the positive reviews. The one and only minigame is just a conditional stat slider and protaganist is an extreme loser.

This is one of the best visual novels that I have played! The plot's genres of romance, comedy, drama, along with the accompanying music that invokes strong emotions and dialogue that really sticks in the mind even after completing the game, really make for a wonderful experience! Quick, spoiler-free rundowns of the endings: Bad Ending (Both Routes) - Depression... Good Ending (Jo-hee) - the romance of customer and the cafe shop owner succeeds! [spoiler] NTR antagonist, begone madafaka!!! [/spoiler] Good Ending (Latte) - I am painfully aware I cannot actually marry a fictional character but MARRY ME LATTE Overall, as a hopeless romantic that continues indulging in such media, 10/10 would recommend! p.s. [spoiler] Latte is the canon winner of self-insert MC's heart, play Love in Login for proof [/spoiler]

Simple, yet touching. 8/10 on normal, 9/10 on sale
