Alright, so far I've been playing the game since... I'm not sure what version, but I think around the v0.17 or so...
I'm liking the kind of turn this story is taking, and I'm genuinely curious about how things will unfold, specially with Morgana and with the other realms we can access through the Nexus. I've also noticed that the heart cards have new outfits that are blurred, so I'll probably replay the game from the start in order to see if there were any changes in previous chapters
Gameplay-wise, the combat system is well done. I never got the chance to see how the previous one looked like, but this one surely seems to fit better when it comes to the gameplay type as a whole.
Story-wise, the arcs have been progressing in a very interesting way. At the start, we tend to try and rush things to try and power up our character as soon as possible. Sometimes to get to the H-Scenes, sometimes to do something specific with a certain character, sometimes just to test out the new mechanics. And now, we're starting to feel the pressure on our backs, since a wrong move can put the people we've met at risk.
Potential-wise, I can see that TheArcadean has a lot of things he'll most likely try to implement in the game pretty soon. Just like the combat system and the war storyline were a surprise when they came out, I'm pretty sure in the future we'll see more mechanics that aren't all that common in simulation games such as this.
Last, but not least, BRING BACK MY GRANDPA!
10/10, "Surely one of the greatest games of the era"
