Almost worth playing without the sex
You click through scenes showing how the story progresses. Beyond that the gameplay is basically non-existant and one's only choices are who not to have sex with and whether to try to be understanding and compasionate or harsh and demanding with your crew-mates, which influences relationships and sexual opportunities (which would be more interesting if being understanding, compassionate, and honest wasn't always the best choice). This is a little dissapointing. My closest experience to playing a game like this is "the wolf among us" but that game at least had branching paths depending on the dialogue decisions made. With the unending void, the dialogue decisions simply act to grant access to sex scenes. Saying that, the option to have one of two personalities (even if one of them is always superior) is better than some games where you are obligated to play an arsehole. The graphics are pretty good and look better than most other games I've played. Unlike most sex-games who's gallery I've browsed, the women look like normally shaped human females and have varied personalities which means reading through the conversations is moderatly interesting. They typically dress appropriately for the jobs they do (not too many high-heeled, thong clad, disproportionately sized women) which combined with the graphical animations and varied, consistent personalities gives characters depth which most games lack. Personally, I would prefer it if there was more story and decision making inbetween the sex scenes and for certain female characters to be even less overtly sexualised (Thyia for example is dressed very strangely for a mechanic), or to sexualise them less crassly. Overall, the story has enough going on to keep me following it even if some sections do become rediculous. If the story and personalities were a little better fleshed out and the destination planet slightly less rediculous It could even become a game worth playing even without the sex related content.
