HuniePop 2: Double Date

Literally, it's flat and monochromatic. There is no undressing currently before the "sex", which I miss quite a lot, no progressively erotic photos from the girls as you build the relationship (as there is no relationship to speak of), and the sex CG is just meh and mostly not even sexy, even with the patch on.

Ждал больше, чем Киберпанк! Главная игра года! В правой руке мышка! В левой руке шишка!

Game play is pretty good, some new changes. The new stamina element took some time to adjust to, but ultimately I ended up liking it as something new that didn't change the central game play too much. The change to you bought food/gifts/upgrades was ok. but not well explained how exactly you got each of the four types of currency. But, I was rarely out of one I needed, so it didn't really affect me that much. The main issue I had was how bad the writing had gotten. The original was sophmoric, but it was intelligent about it. It knowingly was ridiculous and the characters winked knowingly at it. HuniePop 2 was mostly just bad sophmoric, with little of the charm that made the original fun. Kyu and Jessie were not nearly as likable (actually hated the new Jessie, she had a different voice actor that just didn't match.) Brook and Ashley were painful to sit through their scenes. More so than even Sarah who was meant to be annoying. The only characters I really like were Candace, Lillian and Nora.

.. and I love it! Only four hours in and already had sooo much fun it's kinda criminal. I really liked the first game, for both the relaxing puzzle parts and the crazy jokes, but did not know what to expect from the sequel (didn't follow any dev blog or such). Well, it turns out it's just lovely. The gameplay has not changed much, the humour is spot on sleazy and the whole experience deligtfully light-hearted. Waiting for 2026 and HuniePop 3!
