VERSUS: The Elite Trials

I wanna like the game and its definitely not the worst choice game I have played. The story and world are both very interesting. The political power struggle and relationship managing can be fun. But my two major gripes that make me hate this game are The confusing stat and chart system the game has and The romance system I love the chartacters in this game and would want to replay it so many times to do all the extensive romance paths it seems to have. However I am beyond pissed with how it is executed. In the first game the lost one you meet quite a few of the RO's (romance options) and thats good but you dont really get a chance to talk to any of them on a deep level (except for breeze and maybe venuma but I havent tried to romance her on my first run. So not getting to know them sucks and you get to base your relationships on looks alone basically because in The Elite Trials you get to chat with each of the other RO's at the beginning and see their looks and outer personalities and thats it. THEN THE GAME ASKS YOU TO CHOOSE WHICH ROMANCE PATH YOU WANT TO FOLLOW THE REST OF THE GAME. this drives me crazy for a number of reasons 1) you dont really get to know half the RO's past …

I find it difficult to recommend this game. In a game like this I think it is incredibly important to make failure fun, unfortunately Versus fails in that regard. Versus is a good story that is ruined by irritating and frustrating gameplay decisions. I found the system of stats overcomplicated and confusing. I feel like the author is just trying too much at once. Too many things too keep track of. You dont know when the stats are relevent or being tested. You just need to take a guess and hope for the best. Even when you are constantly checking your stat screen it felt like a coin toss. The story, characters and mysteries are interesting enough that I want to persevere through this, but the bad just outweighs the good too much.

well writen and exiting story. I loved every bit of it, even when my choices didn't go as I planned. I very rarely spend money on a game or play through multiple times but these stories are well worth it! Thank you for this game!

Honestly one of the best Choice Of games i have ever read, and I've read a few.

Not bad for a sequel. It is nice that a lot of the choices really carried over from the last game and the transfer I thought from that one to this one was rather smooth. They also added way more choices that matter in this game, which is the reason I like these games to begin with. What is also nice is that the decisions aren’t always clear on what they will affect in the long run, so it is adds a bit more depth I thought to this over the previous entry. Fair warning but obviously if you didn't enjoy the last one you probably aren’t going to enjoy this one and it just makes the whole experience better if you go play that one first, so I’d recommend that. In the end I thought it was a good read and a good sequel to the Lost Ones and will be rather eagerly awaiting the next one in this series.
