Cleaved is a VN I really enjoy, but one I think took a little time to 'feel itself'. The opening is / was (I believe it's changed) very formulaic, very much a 'My Wolf' Adastra-esque opener, but as it has updated I've found myself drawn into the unique world, as long as they continue to USE that world. The tech, the history, the peoples, all grow increasingly interesting as time goes on. 

They've had some struggles with art and other dev stuff, but I hope they can overcome them because I can easily see Cleaved becoming a classic fvn and I am extremely eager to see how the world grows.
