A Tithe in Blood

Studio Elan как всегда на высоте. Классно нарисованные персонажи, озвучено японскими сейю (Русская девушка Татьяна на русском разговорила без акцента(Они нашли русскую сейю которые озвучивает аниме и она озвучивала русскую девушку) и это круто),в плане сюжета тоже всё норм. Иностранная новелла где действия происходит в Японии где нет лепестков сакуры и духоты. Но... Хотелось бы этого чуть подольше. Хотелось бы чтобы эта история не была такой быстрой. Хотелось бы чуть получше познакомится с Хонокой и остальными. Новелла короткая и это один единственный минус. Рекомендую но лучше брать игру по скидке.

Dissapointing Act Four. Besides Yasue and Honoka, I found it difficult to care much for the antagonist and felt 'Meh' about the bare bones side characters, so Honoka's sudden switch, 'backtracking' on Yasue feels... poorly executed and slightly '???' after what Yasue went through literally 15 minutes ago. Even if it is Yasue becoming too lost in revenge and about Honoka finally becoming proactive. It still ends up feeling fairly dysonant and something written more to be along the lines of 'power of friendship' like am I genuinely expected to give a *** about the antagonist? When Honoka worried about Yonehara and behaved so antagonistic towards Yasue I wanted to facepalm. So dumb. I totally understand MC not wanting more people to die, especially after what happened to her parents but I don't get why the hell suddenly all her empathy for Yasue dissapeared like that. It makes Honoka's feelings seem like they're whatever the plot demands them to be, which frankly, makes her appear bipolar. This game fails because it barely gives you a little of time with the side cast yet expects you to care more about them. Like the bond between Honoka and Shinho is just there, is barely something. Then there's those other two that she barely interacts with. Honoka only interacts more with them after THE THING. It feels like this game avoided going for something more complex to go for the most nothingburger and easiest tame conclusion ever because hey we gotta wrap up the plot! At the start, I was intrigued by Honoka only to end up disliking her in Act 4. She feels all over the place. I expected better from a game with a Dark Fantasy tag. I wish Yasue was put in a better game that played more with morals instead, because this game played it too safe and clearly needed to be longer.

86% POSITIVE?! *** NO. GET THAT BACK UP TO 95% MINIMUM. UPDATE: AFTER COMPLETING, THIS *** MOVED ME TO TEARS. *** READ IT.
