Just thought I'd leave some feedback on my experience playing this demo. I want to be fair but honest with this, and I'm only speaking of my own experience, so take it for what you will.
I have to begin by saying that the art in this game is absolutely gorgeous, and nice to see our queen is surrounded by so much eye candy! Me likey!
I also like that our MC is confident and firm, however... I didn't feel that much of a connection with her during this demo, mainly because I didn't feel she had much personality besides her ambition, or rather, not much chance to actually show her personality. Maybe once there is more chances to roleplay or see her personality as a person and flesh her out that way, rather then just a ruler, I'll get there? but yeah... I'm really hoping for that because for me (and again, just my opinion), she fell rather flat.
I also didn't feel that much of a connection with either of the male love interests (I didn't play the female route), but again, I think that's simply due to the lack of meaningful interaction with them this early in the game, which is understandable, all things considered. I did like the thing with Alexander and the kite - that was really cute. <3
I really really hope we get to see more of the informal side of these characters in future, including our queen. The human/flawed/funny/cute/awkward/lovely/unique aspects of characters is generally what draws me to them, but I'm not getting much of that yet.
I actually like the Master of Murmurs thus far, too. I'm wondering if there will ever be a DLC or such that allows him to be romanced? Cos he would be a nice addition.
The kingdom management seems pretty decent too. I'll be looking forward to seeing how the stakes are raised the longer our queen sits on the throne, and the greater any opposition becomes.
But yeah. I'm sorry if this isn't the sort of review you wanted, but I did want to be honest about my experience. I do have high hopes about the end result, and really hope that I can connect with these characters in future!
