I just started playing the game and throughout the entire intro i kept seeing things that were oddly simaler to the SEQUEL Series. But the whole time i was relentlessly denying it because like i mean no way right? Leaf geometry is pretty neiche as far as i know, so the odds of it being an actual reference/source of inspiration instead of a wild coincidence is pretty low riiiiight? I gotta be realistic here yaknow? It took me until i took a closer look at Novas design and i went like "Wait thats literally fucking Chemica" before i finally accepted it lmfao.
Anyways hyped as hell to play this through. The SEQUEL games and their spinoffs are by far my favorite Ero Games out of the hundred or so ive played, combined with the fact i came here through a recommendation section in Divine Dawn, prolly my third favorite, as well and i genuinely cannot express how excited to see with what this game has to offer.
Edit: and im seeing a ton of inspiration to a bunch of other media ive consumed before, so it'll definitely be fun trying to poke and prod at what stuff might come from where. Honestly it feels like im playing the Era of Myth games again with how crazy my monkey brain pattern recognition is going
