Takeru is always screaming and nobody inside of his head, and even outside of his head infront of people, creating awkward atmospheres. Really? That's the conclusion after all that worldbuilding and РІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђ-poor development? Give me a break.Р”Р„nd finally, Angst. Like Amane and her boyfriend that was, like, twice her age? Where did that go, again, when he staged the Coup De Tat? What interaction did they have? How did that impact her?Р”В®ight, the ending. They developed well enough in the original slice of life VN, but practically nothing happened with them in Alternative. A character that has no likes or interests that are not Takeru related? A character that whines, complains and is only useful due to a power that is not her own? A character two steps from becoming a Yandere, and yet even that somehow prevents her from becoming the least bit compelling.

Why give us all these options and characters to explore with in the last games and then force us into a relationship with the most generic and insipid character ever created? A character that has NO depth, even in the original.

Reading this stuff feels like work half the time, and when you're nodding off when important information that you need to hear is being told to you. Even if you disagree with every other little thing I say, this is simply an undeniable fact.Р”В®xposition is supposed to be weaved into a dialogue, not fed to you like you're in a classroom. Yes, let's do all that then harvest her brain for no reason.Р”Вoesn't help that Sumika sucks as a character and even that fate wasn't enough to make anyone care about her.Р”Р‡ifth, infodumping. What, the beta for some reason decided it wanted to know what would make a girl moan? Not a dude, though, right? Because who cares about that. Speaking of shock value, let's talk about the Beta РІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђ scene. Hell, they didn't even serve as development for anyone else, with the exception of the one Captain lady, and that was so forced and spontaneous I wouldn't be surprised if it cost someone their job. Everyone else just died randomly and had little impact on the story on their way out. The chomp scene was the only death scene that had any significance, since an entire horrible arc was based around it. 90% of the deaths were of characters who were not developed nor even slightly compelling at all.Р”Р‡ourth, shock value. And the deaths are just there for shock value. There's too many times where Takeru is talking back and forth about nothing pertinent with people (or, of course, himself). 24/7 he's repeating obvious РІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђ or raging inside his head or something. And he never shuts the РІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђ up with his internal dialogue. He's a marty stu and you root for him because we've become invested in a world that has little to no chance, but then one little thing goes wrong and he goes down a path of angsty crying. I read up to the Beta РІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђРІв„ўТђ scene in Alternative, then dropped it, read a summary and was baffled.Р”Р‡irstly, the protagonist sucks. Bear in mind I completed Muv Luv and Unlimited.

But kicking the hornets nest is fun, and I invested too much time into the series and hope into the hype to just up and forget about it. I'm going to give you all fair warning - this will annoy a lot of you.
