I can see your point and agree on some parts but i hope you agree that this is a step-up from the classic visual novels but, of course, this is the point of view of someone who usually stayed away from visual novel for the lack of decision and action.
But i agree this act is going pretty slow but is understandable since is experimenting, maybe this section is too big, looking at the map the creator planned a lot of different fight, and make all those is delaing the story progression.
Anyway mix some action and strategy with the eroge genre, for me, is a selling point wich differentiate the game from thousands of other identical ones.
On the one hand, it was pretty obvious back in act 1 that it might lead to this type of system. Even if it was still visnov style, it would honestly feel repetitive and stale once we got to the major conflicts and only kept to the visnov limited choice railroading.
On the other hand, it is still subject to change depending on what the dev intends to do. So for all we know it could still completely change again. Hell, it's still only in the first stage of it and has little actual content yet. That's why Arc has worked his ass off to provide what we have now lol. It's *a lot* of work.
Sorry the changes aren't for you - that's always a risk when trying something new, and unfortunately it's always going to turn some people off. There were the same complaints about the Explore system, the stats system, Shatter, the Nexus Keys, pregnancy... change is spooky!
I feel it's important, though, both from a mechanical as well as a personal growth perspective, to keep trying new things. Push at the edges of what I can do and see if I can somehow create something even better. Sometimes it works, sometimes it's a disaster, but if I just sit in a rut then what's the point?
Maybe you'll come back to CK in a while and with a new perspective and enjoy the changes or maybe you'll stay away forever. I hope it's the former; I would understand the latter. But either way, thanks for playing Corrupted Kingdoms and I wish you all the best in your future h-game playing :)
