I really loved this demo! I'm really excited to see the rest of the game when it comes out. As I've said before, it's all very charming. Despite how plain the premise or whatever could sound, you've really captured my attention, especially with the demo. I really want to see more of this whole story in general!
Ah, and I'll elaborate more on what I really liked, lol. I hardly write reviews, sadly, so you know this is good already. Despite how oversaturated the superhero and otome genre can be, there's just something about the designs and characters that really pull me in.
Like another player's said at the bottom, the expressions (especially Warden's awkward expressions in the MC's doorway) and development of everyone's character are really on point. To me, everyone feels very real, whether they're minor characters, the protagonist (who tends to be bland in otome games sometimes), and Warden! I'd say he's already on my list of top ten characters, and I'd like to see more of him.
Warden and everyone all feel like people, and the simple way the story is being told through its music and protagonist really interest me. I've said this numerous times, lol, but everything is very much no-frills. From the design of the game to Warden's awkward expressions, it all feels like something that could actually happen. A lot of otome games tend to abandon that grounded sense of reality to pursue a grand sense of beauty, tragedy or romanticism, but Herotome doesn't. It has that nice, weirdly comfortable sense of reality and sticks to it! Although reality is usually much harsher and worse than reality in otome games, it really works here because of how grandiose the plot could be. With that strong sense of realism, all characters' personalities shine through as people, especially Warden and the MC. Warden is very human and down-to-earth, and I really loved that. Too often, you don't get characters like Warden nowadays that stand out enough.
At any rate, thank you so much for such a fun demo! I really loved every single bit of it, and I bet I'll love it even more when more of the game comes out!
Do you mind my asking about whether or not Herotome will be free (not that that wouldn't stop me from getting this game)?
