nazar-pc rated Fates Collide

nazar-pc rated a game 102 days ago
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android.

This is a nice game overall given its intended design, however I personally found said design quite annoying.

I respect the idea of non-harem setting with a bunch of possibilities, but it feels like too many and there are quite a few non-obvious choices that sometimes happen at the very first meet of a new characters that make you miss a bunch of content way further into the story.

To really enjoy it all once needs to spend a lot of time grinding on different options trying to understand what went wrong and prevented a certain path with a bunch of saves. And even then most of the time it is driven by gallery. I have no idea how much more I have missed without even knowing it. Which is a shame, I can see how much care the developer put into the story.

At least having a walkthrough option or at least an optional mod would have been nice for those who prefer more linear story or want to explore all the flavors of the story. I was also quite surprised by the score at the end (or, rather, how low it was) , which there was no indication of anywhere until the very end. I really don't like "gotcha" kinds of choices in the game.

On a technical side the story is quite good overall, render quality is good too, the music isn't bad, but there are some quite long scenes where I wish more than one track was playing. And the characters are very interesting with diverse personalities and unique background.

I think it is a solid 4, though I would have preferred a more linear story myself. Thanks!
