The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy-

(recitation of my expecience might still be a bit fueled by 60 burned bucks but i want to deliver it as fresh as possible) booting up the demo and soaking in the (at first) nice story delivered by really cool animated cutscenes and interesting game mechanics till day 6 (one day before the demo ends according to the storepage) and 4.1 hours, eventough usually quite reluctant with such high numbers i still was as invested as the full price afterwards, swiftly transferring my demo save (a cool thing that its possible) i was ready to dive in. and boy do i still have a sour taste in my mouth from the belly flop i experienced, as much as i want to like the game the way the characters act/react made even me feel smart and i cannot help but tend to agree with the people saying its intentional to stretch the convos or plot in general. i also have to agree with another review i read (while i attempted to cope) which said that the demo would be the game and the rest is just streched to fit 100 endings which seems really impressive but also sounds like a pain when you realize theres no roadmap like in... detroid become human or other games where you can see what to do to get the route or even jump to timelines in the game that would make it possible to achieve them to make some points hoping to non-cryptically convey what i mean and explain what made me stop after even skipping the whole dialouges from day ~21 to ultimately 33 in detail: spoiler's mainly about game plot, not game mechanic related (exploits, bugs etc.) [spoiler]first thing i found fishy was Hiruku Shizuhara revealing that it wasnt the first time she fought against invaders suggesting shes at it for a while and the MC acts surprised, wondering about when previous attacks were supposed to have happened eventough it was like 10 mins earlier clearly stated that frequent alerts force everyone into shelters and ''no one knows why'', ''no one ever questioned it'' and ''everyone accepted it'', like wtf? secondly, whole DAYS after being told that youre not home anymore and appearantly wont be for 100 total the MC has thought ONCE about wether the ppl at home he allegedly holds oh so dear even know what happened and happens and then the only person who couldve answered gets found dead before he could ask WOW (personally speaking id try to slaughter everyone there for all i know if i have no guarantee the person i fight for is informed of my future return but whatever) point i wanna make, instead of even thinking about a way to somehow contact karu and his mom he just has dreams about them (atleast make him think of ways or something for gods sake) same with Shouma who also ONCE mentioned his dog. wth? you wont even be able to mistake cadaveric spasms as happy tail wagging after 100 days! then again hes probably too busy annoying others with repeatedly saying ''its annyoning to talk with me anyway''... anyway. -.- third happening madly frustrating me was being forced to persuade this Levi Ackermann, Soshiro Hoshina ahhh looking piece of work called Goku... no wait. Gaku Maruko into fighting instead of leaving his sorry ass being expelled at day 16 he was written so good ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥'ish (until you made him join) that it not only made me skip his entire story it made me even want to read Shouma Ginzaki's over the top self deprecations instead. fourth would be the shyteshow enrolling after getting K.f'ingO.'d with a metal pipe (Homeless Intru-vidual it seems.) in the middle district of nowehere next to the random-street... context: you wake up getting ''saved'' by a Sirei rip off that has a name one r away from winning any international debate known to mankind which turns out to be director of a second- class or last line /whatever school sporting 4 whole other cadets one conveniently being and assassin, turns out the Mr Nigou had daily contact with Sirei (the General of the main last line defense school who got sliced up) which means Ni- would certainly be able to lure Si- out of his academy. further more the existence of a second school obviously means that there are fire extinguishers too and that would solve the question that was also like 10 mins previously discussed of how Hiruku Shizuhara disappeared without a trace and could also mean that this assassin from second school could have entered and murked her (yes he says ''killing someone you love is more fun then radom people'' but if you just instantly swallow that like the MC then.... okay. 👍 lastly i want to express my personal disappointment regarding the introduction of Nozomi Kirifuji.(it was an allright surprise nothing to say there) but what bothers me is that the MC had a memory earlier in the game that showed the beginning of the bond between MC and Kura where also gets revealed that Kura has a damn cool looking scar across her whole belly. (im a fan of scars and that one was just so unique to me) i just really wish the MC wouldve atleast asked if Kirifuji had any big/remarkeable scars or had made any other attempt at verifying it isnt her for sure. on second thought tho... im glad, honestly relieved it wasnt really her (by the looks of it anyway) since i think id have a collar seizure because it'd have been coming 102% out of the blue and not foreshadowed by a previous memory of the MC where Kura has weirdly twisted a convo to the question how he'd feel if she didnt recognize him. i may be dense but many characters tank informations better then a damn 188 ton wwII prototype[spoiler] that concludes my personal essay (better written then in school cuz 60 bucks are 60 bucks), chronological and sadly more negative experience. what i take away from this experience: the memory of Tsubasa Kawana, Karua Kashimiya (my most valued chars) what the devs take away from my experience: money worth of 6 Kebabs 🥙
