Ataegina Act I

Pretty great. I'm liking it so far. I've finished Act 1 now. Some interesting twists and turns. Big thumbs up!

I thought the game was fine. I enjoyed it and I am looking forward to act 2. The moral system (which can determine some scenes with characters) works. Combat system is better than other combat systems in AVN games. Don't how much depth there is too it with all the different schools but looked promising. The animations are okay. They are the early Renpy game engine animations but they work. Hope they can be improved for the 2nd game. Some people don't like the forced girlfriend at the start of the game but she isn't annoying or in the way like some are. In fact she is pretty passive in the relationship and even offers a threesome or two along the way so she clearly is into a more open mindset. A plot point that should exist is for the MC and GF to discuss their relationship - open, sharing, closed, etc. The world seems interesting and has some background and lore to it. You go to a lot of different areas and there is also lots of characters assets I have not seen in other Renpy games. Overall, I would say for the 2nd game is better animations and more interactions with the various characters area the only thing I can think of worth asking for. This game was better than I thought it…

Combat system is amazing. great story!

Good

Played a few of these types of games, and this so far is one of the best of them. Could really use some sounds in the animations, that would put it over ther top.

Extremely solid AVN. There are some rough elements but it's clear that a lot of actual time and effort went into making it. The writing is very enjoyable. It's not necessarily one of the greatest stories I've ever read, but it is entertaining and the characters are pretty likable. The different alignment paths offer a surprisingly different playthrough each time and there are some fun combinations of choices you can make on each one. Overall the pacing is really the biggest issue but if you've played games like College Kings you'll be kind of used to some of the abrupt and bizarre scene transitions. The graphics are okay. They're not the strongest I've ever seen but its refreshing not to be bombarded by a lot of the janky AI rendered slop most devs are putting out. The girls are all pretty enough and the sex scenes still work despite the slightly lower graphic quality. All in all this is one of my most enjoyed AVNs of the past few years. I wouldn't say it's Being a ♥♥♥ level, but it's very fun and one of the better fantasy settings I've played. Probably 2nd best behind To Be A King. Overall I'm excited to see what the second act holds.
