Honestly Plot wise and content this is a very solid H game (with actual gameplay not a VN) The combat can get annoyingly long if you do a thottery build but pure combat wise you can push it generally fast. It also doubles as a strategy game when it comes to upgrades/builds. One of the best Corruption games/Thot sims out there only rivaled by Third Crisis (imo the king), GGGB, Our Red String or College Craze (I'd toss Insexcity but man it's so buggy). The klap kontent is also just phenomenal lots of variety for lots of different kinks. I do think the standard price is a little steep but it is so worth it on sale. Really solid game with decent replay value and its very easy to actually trigger H stuff unlike a lot of other gameplay based H titles.

I don't understand why this title gets so much praise. It is a terrible game? No but I find it quite insulting the general consensus says this game is better than any other modern FS title. This is easily Fromsoft's worse modern title to date. Its not a terrible game at all but it just cannot come close to their real behemoths in the soulsborne series (even Armored Core VI is better than this game). I found the story and the "lore" extremely lackluster and disengaging. The world design is terrible I have never played a game with such a disorientating map design like bruh this makes the surge's trash map look decent. Massive amounts of backtracking its sickening (yeah FS titles have that occasionally but wow it is rampant in this game.) The combat is probably the thing I have the least issues with. Am I fan. Not really but in FS fashion its very difficult and punishing.
Peformance is also not ideal especially considering the year this game came out. Thermals are high for a title that doesn't have the best graphical fidelity and microstutters are out and about.
All of this led to a game I played in bits and pieces due to the fact I did not care for the title. I had to force myself to beat the game. And I only did it because when you criticize a difficult game the first rebuttal is oh you didn't even finish it you're probably terrible. So I literally beat the game for posterity as to criticize this game only means get ready for the mob mentality to show up. At the end of the day comparing to other games yeah its alright but it was an extremely weak FS title. Heck you could give me this game without telling me who the devs are. I'd never guess Fromsoft. If you are a Fromsoft fan just keep in mind your two hours for the refund button as a hardcore FS fan I did not like this game one bit. The general population rides this. But hey they also ride kakis like horizon.

Going to toss in my baby positive review since I do see a lot of discord going on in the forums. I'll update further as I play more and more and complete more titles in the ports. Eventually I will discuss aspects other than performance.

As a intel/nvidia user I have zero issues currently game is running flawlessly on 4k 60 fps with amazing thermals as it should since these are older games. Apparently AMD is having some problems (nothing new tbh) so maybe avoid the game until that's dealt with.

As someone who has played these remasters on a ps5 the upscaled textures imo look better idk what people are on about saying they look really bad. Dualsense has native support however I decided to emulate a DS4 so I can enable haptic feedback via DSX since there is also DS4 support. Controls are responsive and are working as intended. The only real con this bundle currently has is cutscenes are locked to 30 fps (oh and all the mods broke for this release so we gotta wait.) Honestly the current sale this game is on is actually very fair. It's not a steal but it's fair for the content provided. Once it drops another 30 bucks or so it will enter steal territory. Obviously don't pay full price for these titles and make sure you grab the masterpiece bundle to lower the cost.

Individual game experiences:

BBS- I'm a few worlds in again like I stated above I have yet to run into any sort of bugs or issues. Game runs perfect. Probably one of the more optimized PC releases in a long time. Will update review further as I progress.

So you guys know how BAD & FL is the peak of VN H games. Basically nothing can touch them? Well Third Crisis is that but for adventure/tactical RPGs H games (or H games that have actual gameplay in them instead of being pure VNs). While also being the best ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thot sim/corruption game in the market. The Plot is great, branching is fantastic, the artstyle is to die for, the MC is bhad af, OST is solid & good animations with variety. The title makes it seem like it is part of something bigger "Third" Crisis but this is the first game in the series despite there being 3 Crises in the lore/universe of this series. You play as Jenna "Vibe" Wright a hero from the second crisis that gets thrown into the midst of the third crisis. I won't go into too many specifics so that you guys can enjoy the story for itself but the game has about 7 main endings with 4 of them being obtained via outside the main quest and the other 3 being options for the main ending of the game. So there is variety and it does come down to how you play the game.

You can choose to be a thot rocket supreme, super pure or anything in between. All of the endings are related to the former while you must remain pure for the true ending. The gameplay is pretty straight forward like any typical rpg (there is no leveling or skills though) its purely based off of stats & gear. Combat is very simple its basically you can hit enemies and you usually have a skill or two. Its turned based and while its very simple a lot of the combat encounters especially late game can be extremely challenging enough where I think there should be a skip button (or easy mode) due to the nature of this game. There is a skip mode in the settings man I wish I knew that. Some of those fights were a ♥♥♥♥♥. You are alone for a large portion of the game but eventually do get a party going much later filled with a colorful cast. There are also mini games and for the most part they are simple and not annoying with only a few of them being tedious I'm assuming they too are skippable.

The animations and sounds are on point. Very hot, very raunchy, lewd and have lots of variety when it comes to kinks. I only wish every situation was fully animated as some scenes are simply photos or the classic back and forth bounce back to sim movement. But at least there is a lot of animations and they are sprinkled throughout the entire game. There are a few specific kinks I wish they gave us more of but they still basically gave us all the goats in good supply.

What makes this game really standout is how rich it is in the lore. You can talk to the NPCs and pick up breadcrumbs about the world. We also get journal entries (during one small section of the game we even get voiced audio logs that are so dope) all over the game that give us small information about the universe. We get lots of teasing about how the world is and used to be. It makes it feel a lot more alive and established compared to so many other titles in this genre. Like its crazy that I actually want to read up on lore for this series. I want to know more about the other crises. I want more on Jenna, shes a legendary hero so she clearly has had some crazy escapades. I'm hoping we get a full blown series out of these covering the previous two crises and future events as well that fleshes this out even further (a prequel is in the works!)

The cast of characters involved is great too not just the main crew but the support characters can be very funny, or super douches. You really dislike the villains and just want to take them down. Speaking of villains this game has one of the dopest plot twists I've seen in a long ass time. Really caught me off guard. What's also really dope is how organized they keep the gallery content. Its separated by location/events for the scenes, pinups, animations, and characters also have their own sections. Its just seamless and easy to get to for whenever you want to watch a specific moment.

Despite all this praise I'm giving the game it does have it flaws. Performance/bugs is the first thing. It usually CTD's on exiting. This game has loading screens between cells. Honestly for what this game is those loading screens should be a second at most if not instantaneous. But some of them can be a little long and you will be bouncing cells often bethesda style. Then there's the Lag/frame drops. Again a game like this should not have these problems at all! But they occasionally will occur. I've noticed towards the end of the game it's more prominent. Glitching is another thing. Menus sometimes get a little buggy and you need to play around for it to work or you need to reload a save sometimes if the combat gets a little buggy. Nothing game breaking but it exists and it happens. The game did just leave EA so I'm certain with time it will get better but I had to mention these things as they do occur. It also seems the Peitho/townhall path/ending is currently incomplete which kinda sucks since the game is officially out now. They should have finished that. Here's hoping they do and its not dropped. Speaking of endings it does feel like the 4 side endings are a bit rushed and come out of left field when they do wrap up I wish they didn't end so abruptly and were a bit more fleshed out. And of course VA would have been nice but that's already very rare with these types of games so it's just wishful thinking.

In terms of ending enjoyment I actually enjoyed all the endings even if some of them were very sad (or in the case of some of the side endings kinda were left field) If I had to list them in order of best to worse it would go like

1. True Ending: Honestly to me its really the only "good" ending from the main 3 endings. I am a bit miffed you can only get it by being pure (no thottery) which does make sense from a narrative standpoint but it be cool if you could also trigger the ending by being such a thot to the point where your powers make a resurgence. Either way it melts my heart and I was very glad that this ending even exists as the other two endings are extremely bittersweet. I'm assuming this is the canon ending and will be used for any games that take place after Third Crisis.

2. Good Ending & Bad Ending?: I put a question mark as its a little debatable on which is which but either way your taking a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ L with these endings. I really feel like your shafted either way and most people are going to get one or the other since lets be real most of us are playing this game for the H lol.

3. Pornstar Ending: So this path was very enjoyable in terms of content and the ending was pretty much an alt "happy ending" but again I feel like it does ends rapidly and lacks a satisfying epilogue.

4. Bar ending: Again very enjoyable path lots of good content. At least it wasn't a super abrupt ending but it is annoying to get the pop up to start the ending everytime you talk to the bartender once you meet requirements. Wish it was a little longer too.

5. Streetwhore/Alley/Leidryn Path Ending: So this would be considered one of the bad ends. I actually enjoyed the content of this path a lot even though it felt like it was building up and suddenly it ends but it has some of more darker content in the game.

6. Peitho/Townhall Path Another bad end that I really enjoyed the content for. I would put it equal to the previous ending but its currently unfinished.

All in all I recommend this to anyone who enjoys H titles. Even if you don't it may warrant a run since you could always do a pure path. Really solid gem and I am very hyped and looking forward to Third Crisis: Neon Nights. Which is a prequel to this that takes place during the 5 year gap. It already looks so good and will most likely surpass this title tenfold! I'd write more but I ran out of space. Check me out on backloggd for the full review!

Game doesn't even launch do not buy.

Honestly game got a lot of unwarranted hate. Gameplay is fun, the characters control different from each other. The story hits and most importantly. This game ♥♥♥♥♥ on GK. Thank God it isn't complete trash like that title. I will admit the endgame is a problem but lets talk our way there. So The gameplay loop is satisfying. The combat/killing feels rewarding and I love how different everyone feels. I bounce between all four characters but I main Harley and King Shark the most.

I know a lot of people complain about the UI being all over the place but tbh it doesn't bother me too much considering you can turn most of it off & the gameplay is so crazy and chaotic the UI doesn't really phase me. I'm too busy trying to stay alive and kill everything with the amount of ♥♥♥♥ happening. As for the performance? I can get 60 fps on native 4k with mostly high settings I do have to turn 1-2 settings to medium. However the thermals are up there. So not a well optimized game but in this day and age unfortunately that's very common and at least I am able to actually hit target frames without the use of DLSS or dynamic resolution.

As a long time arkham fan its crazy for me to admit it but the story is not bad at all. I actually liked the plot a lot with exception to a certain boss fight that should have been handled different even if they did that since the boss in question would body the Suicide squad on a straight up fight. Nonetheless I felt some type of way being forced to put down my beloved heroes one by one because that was the only way to save the day. Bats himself wouldn't have had it any other way. I know people wanted a JL game but we can still get one. They can always do prequels that lead up to this moment and possibly flashpoint it later in order to restore the TL. However that's the end of my praise for this game and its story as the endgame is terrible. It consists of literally grinding the same 5 missions over & over again for better loot (terrible rng btw) and to raise your mastery enough to get better rewards. It seems this repeats with each episode. That alongside forcing live service is the fatal flaw of this game as it did take away from the game significantly, introduced an abysmal grind, ruining end game and resulted in things like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ battlepass in a SP title.


So excluding the endgame I will recommend this title (on a sale) with the endgame included I would not unless you aren't planning to go too deep into it. As another reviewer once said "This game is kinda like DCUO but as a single player/co op experience instead of a mmo" They really hit the nail on the head and its probably why I do enjoy this game as I am a DCUO fan.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ they added an unlimited turns button. This is pretty huge considering a lot of the difficulty from the match-3 puzzles come from having to complete them in a certain amount of turns. Essentially making all puzzles solvable without grind! (There are times you may still need a tool to complete) This is a HUGE step in the right direction and helps reduce grind. They even reduced the difficulty of the puzzles for the most part. While this is all great it still doesn't fix that the puzzles are still mandatory, and can still take a long time to complete. It's a band-aid to the problem. They need to make the story mode available from the get go.

Now lets talk animations. So easily the best animations in the series (at least when you are getting full blown scenes not exactly happy how some final scenes were literally just the characters holding each other) and while they did bring back the multiple scenes per branch from the first game not every branch gets this treatment (heck Stuffing The Box still has one scene per branch.) Switch Off was the only one to really have a decent amount per branch with most of it unfortunately being teasing. And while some did have maybe 2 per path with how long they make these routes honestly it feels too disproportionate. If your going to make the routes longer you should be adding more scenes per branch. The first game did it best especially since the routes were way shorter. They did add a bit more VA work but it is still sparingly voiced.

Story wise there is 5 short stories and tbh they are all pretty good when it comes to how hot the scenes were and the plots were all pretty solid for once. Hopefully there will be more variety with the scenes/kinks in the future. It is also nice to see certain characters return and continue to get short stories like Elliot & Isabella. Overall there is massive improvements compared to the previous titles with certain exceptions. However I still think there's a lot that needs to be done before I could recommend this title. Hopefully the fourth game will get it down.

Who's ready for yet another Match-3 rant? So if you've read my previous review on the first game pretty much everything still stands but even worse now. They have made the match-3's even more difficult now which is absurd. The first game was already difficult enough especially the bonus sections. Now they made the base game just as hard with these new mechanics that are really just a kick to the nuts considering you are always at the mercy of the RnG. You essentially need the items to complete certain puzzles. its not optional anymore like in the base game of 1. And the puzzle that basically gives you the best money grind is locked nice and deep in Hot Deck. It's like the devs are getting off to the fact that they are wasting your time.

Lets move on to some of the other aspects in the meantime. Basically everything is a downgrade in this game over the first. They really went quantity over quality in this one. While the animations are better drawn and more fluid with a superior artstyle there is now only one major animation/scene per route instead of how in the first game you had them sprinkled throughout a route with different positions before the wrap up. The best scenes & plots lie within Sigma Epsilon Xi - party, Lusty Dragonian Maid, Mixed Martial Arts, & Exceptional Date. The rest is extremely mehh. Now each path now has one count it again just one scene. That's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ abysmal especially considering they lengthened the routes too so now more puzzles (which are even more difficult) and more branching which gives us less scenes. So basically more work for less payout. That right there is the biggest problem of this game other then yet again locking the content behind match-3s.

So based on achievement unlocks once again we have main 5 short stories with an additional 4 bonus stories with only 50 shades of valentines being worth any effort as the other 3 are once again just artwork unlocks. And once again the bonus stories have an increased difficulty that is just ridiculous especially since the main game has a massive difficulty boost already from the previous game due to the new ♥♥♥♥♥♥ stipulations implemented. If you thought my warning to avoid the first game was already heavy handed nah this is even more cooked. Seriously screw this game's puzzles and how lazy the devs got on this one. Not worth the trouble considering the plots for the most part suck and the single animation per route is just a slap to the face with the increased difficulty. Can 3 get any worse?

Yeah if your going to put in a match-3 into your game would it kill you to not require to grind money for power ups because the stipulations to unlock the next section are ridiculous. "The story mode" you guys add once you complete a section should be the base game if you guys were going to make the puzzles this annoying & tedious due to the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ RNG. Blatantly obvious that this was done to pad the length of the game because otherwise this would be 1-2-3 which frankly I would take over getting screwed with the RNG. Makes the match 3 in Being A ♥♥♥ look like a cakewalk. Lets talk about the actual content now that I'm done with the match-3 grind/difficulty rant.

So the animations are pretty fire despite them being very short (and having to work like crazy for them seriously its bad.) They have sound and light VA work. The only downside is climaxing is not fully animated and is mainly just drawn. Still when it comes to drawn games to even have animations at all is a blessing since most H games that are drawn are still images or do the flip book frame style. So huge thumbs up on that front. When it comes to variety of the scenes its actually pretty solid. They hit most of the standard kinks. Pretty hot scenes for the most part. Some of them were mehh but the ones that stood out in terms of best scenes in the game were easily Boutique Visit & Glory-ous Night.

As for the story the game doesn't have a real narrative its just a bunch of small scenario/short stories that have a small backdrop and lead right into some klap. Just like how they had the best scenes & animations, Boutique Visit & Glory-ous Night also happen to have the best plotlines. Especially since some like Out and About were just all over the place.

In terms of overall content you have the 5 standard short stories which overall were decent I suppose. And then it seems Home Alone, Beach Episode and the Christmas Surprise are considered extra stories or dlc kinda? As you get the achievement for completing all stories after Out and About.

And boy do I have lots of roasting for that content. As if the "base game" wasn't already difficult enough those 3 sections are even more ridiculous with the difficulty. Like you need to rely on all the tools available in order to progress. Which means grind time because those tools aren't cheap and you'll need a lot. Home Alone is the only one worth considering playing in terms of content as you still get some scenes. The other two do not give you animations/scenes. You just get artwork so don't even bother unless you hate yourself enough to go for that platinum.

At the end of it all I would avoid the hell out of this title unless you are a furry (I'm not even one at all I got the series since the animations look well done. Which they are pretty good but are ruined with the gameplay) or really like match-3's because the amount of grinding needed for such a small payout is really just abysmal. Save yourself the trouble and go play BAD, FL or Eternum please.

I don't know how this game came to be. These guys made Arkham Origins ffs one of the best super hero games ever. Somehow someway they dropped the ball and they did it hard. I can say nothing positive about this game. From performance, to story, to gameplay its just all ♥♥♥♥. Terrible game not even worth 20 dollars. If you buy this game I wouldn't pay more than 5 dollars and even then you will still probably feel ripped off. Even the art direction for most of the drip is ass. But at least Barbara is still hot I guess and we get to see red hood again. I cannot fathom how people rode this game.
