Love Exalt 8372

Um, hi? Literally shut up and buy the game I want Tank carnally.

Alright, I've finally finished what has been released so far with the story, I feel I can say something now. TL;DR: It's good. Please play it. Visual Novels normally don't interest me, mainly because (as far as I can tell) VNs tend to have a repuation for being quickly-made low-effort cashgrabs with no real substance or love put into them. Love Exalt 8372 is not one of those games whatsoever. I went into this game only knowing it follows two gay guys getting themselves into a mystery-type scenario with 10 other people. I came out of it with one of the most story and lore-rich, heart string-tugging, hilarious, and complex experiences I've ever had with a visual novel. You keep wanting to come back for more, to see how the characters develop with and alongside each other while being stuck in a nightmare hell, not only because gay people are adorable and cute and adorable together but because the story really leaves you processing a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of stuff at the end of every session in the [i]best[/i] way possible. And you'll end up laughing your ass off and then sitting there covering your mouth because oh my god ♥♥♥♥ just got real what the ♥♥♥♥????? aaaaa its so gooooood i cantttt AND THERES ADORABLE GAY PEOPLE MY HEART I CANT :sob: And honestly? It's not just the story; I'm even going to take a second to say that the minigame mechanics are honestly kinda cool and keep ya engaged. For example (spoilers ahead), [spoiler]healer fishing minigame and his outfit my beloved and LIKE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ACE ATTORNEY WHAT??????[/spoiler]. There's also just fun little secrets and silly things and lore hidden around it's genuinely super neat. It's all just absolutely magnetizing even within the first 10-20 minutes of reading which is why I had wanted to play this game even before it was gifted to me. I also won't say I don't have my issues with some of the mechanics being personally hard to get used to, especially since I'm a fast reader and may not notice something I was supposed to click on before it's too late and you can't go back until the end of the current scene which get longer and longer as the game progresses. Navigation at times is, for lack of a better term, unexplained and unforgiving imo..? There's also no fullscreen yet which does genuinely kinda suck...... My point is: please play the demo at LEAST. See what I'm talking about, and then please buy the full game and play through it because it only gets better from there (your save carries over from the demo btw).
