I've been following this game since Early Access, and while it has improved, it's still missing quite a bit. Most of the things I've noticed were art related. For example, in most of Claire's visual novel sprite poses, one of her arms is definitely longer than the other, and trust me, it is Very Noticeable. Speaking of the visual novel sprites, on some of them I feel like the pupil placement is a little wonky. Other than those visual novel section sprites (and the starlets acting out the card scenes, those models are god awful), all of the card illustrations and cg drawings are very well made and nice to look at.
The card system overhaul was very much needed, and it's actually fun now. Big improvement on that part.
I have come across a couple voice line glitches, where instead of playing the correct line, the game plays cut alternate takes of a previous line???? I heard Claire say "Hell is more of a state of mind" like five times in the 3rd part of her story??? It's so weird.
As for the writing, most of what I've seen is par for the course, but there are some parts that are really witty. I really appreciate that we, as the main character, are never made to partake in any of these situations, or even react to them very much. A lot of the stuff I've played kinda writes the mc as "oh you saw this and got a major boner oh noooooo", and as an asexual (thanks antidepressants) I actually really like that I'm never forced to be a part of these situations. It helps with my immersion.
Overall this game has the core parts (story, gameplay) finished with little to no tweaking needed. What the devs need to do now is polish the game. Fix some of the wonky art, correct some story typos, and fix that weird voice line bug. After that is done, I'd absolutely recommend this game to any monster-girl connoisseur out there.
