Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
It took the creator of Cave Story 5 years to make his game. It's not a game with "high production values" but it was a solo project for every aspect of development from programming to art, something that not many people can do.

Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
Something else I think should be appreciated is Winter Wolves (much like Hanako for that matter) managed to make games without resorting to a Kickstarter.

Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
I don't like Kickstarter model at all (I think I've said it thousands times). Also a recent article on how only 1 game out of 3 is released from those funded by KS says a lot. I don't feel right to take people's money with just "an idea". Ideas are cheap, making a finished product is the real challenge!

Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
Still playing with the first created character and so far only have seen a few romantic scenes. Have now all the hearts with loren. Not sure if i like loren, with her cold attitude. Karen seems to be a more warm person. And chambara, oh, that's an interesting one. Never thought one that practices the black arts could be such a naughty person. One of the lines chambara use did rise my eyebrow, like something as "eh, what did she say there?". It was just as surprising as that line the dremora in morrowind dropped after taunting him (temple quest in maar gan). Also liked that little "show" she came suddently with. For now on i will pursue the ending with loren, but from what i've seen so far i say chambara.

All romances are good, it's just a matter of taste anyway (and Chammy is really funny one )candesco wrote:Still playing with the first created character and so far only have seen a few romantic scenes.

Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
I sooooooooooo LOVE Draco! He is just so absolutely cute! even though I was absolutely not interested in him at first... but he's won me over
I romanced Loren first, then Rei, and then I re-played the game with Saren and chose Draco. Conclusion: I definitely enjoyed romancing Draco the most!! He is so sweet, and I want him to be happy most of all. He really deserves it. He has such a kind heart and such a funny personality and still he is shunned by so many. And still... he is such a cheerful person! So Draco is simply the best imo!

Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
Bumping thread due to inability to keep my opinion to myself about the love interests. Hope nobody minds. Heh.
So far I like the Saren x Draco route the best, despite liking the personality types of Karen and Mesphit more. Enjoyed Loren very much as a character as well, but couldn't really bring myself to get very far in the romance.
I shall explain!

Re: Who is the best Love Interest?
Wow, that's a really interesting take on the game's romances. I totally agree with you on Draco and Saren. That's a healing, healthy, mutually supportive relationship. It lacks the high amount of tension and conflict that's present in some of the other relationships. Nothing wrong with some conflict, of course, but it's nice that there are romances available that don't follow that pattern. If I had to think of a downside it'd be that Saren does more healing than he recieves, but that wouldn't really be fair - I think Saren finds it very rewarding to be the protective and supportive one. Plus, Draco's very supportive himself and always listens to Saren or tries to cheer him up.
I think you're being a bit hard on Amukiki, though. He always struck me as a good person. He's not very nice sometimes, but Saren/Elenor isn't always nice either. In fact, Saren/Elenor is particularly competitive and petty towards him. You could argue that Amukiki's struggling with a lot of self-worth issues himself. I mean, he was exiled from his clan, which was basically his whole world and all he'd ever known, then he came to the Human Empire and was treated like dirt until he made a name for himself as a warrior. This may also be one of the reasons he's so competitive against Saren/Elenor - the only times he's been given respect in the Human Empire it's been because he was a better warrior than someone else. (Come to think of it, that may be how nomad culture works too.) He then fought so hard for so long with one single goal in mind - the blade - but it didn't find him worthy. Seeing how to Amukiki your accomplishments as a warrior determine your personal worth (which is a very unhealthy viewpoint) that must have been quite the blow. Amukiki is still reeling from it and all that's left for him is trying to find meaning in being Loren's companion. How? The only way he knows - by being the best.
Edit: I just remembered something about Amukiki's jealousy scene.
Hmm, I came here to talk about Draco and then ended up holding a defence speech for Amukiki. How did that happen?
