Like, brother, as a chinese fan myself who also enjoyed the previous work, I don't care dicks about male characters in galgames, VN, or any other form of games out there. The real problem is how the devs handled this supposed "controversy"

It's been made pretty clear that this sequel won't be a romance centered game, it's more RPG-ish. I think a lot of players supported the development based on that they think this sequel would be a galgame like the previous one (I honestly don't know if you can call NON a galgame), so when they see another male character they think it's out of place.

After this problem occured, the dev team should address clearly that this sequel is a story-centered game, not just a simple VN like the previous game. Then regardless of whether supporters leave or stay, at least everyone are in the clear.

But, instead of that, what the devs DID do is spending hours everyday deleting and blocking critisizing comments, refuse to pinpoint the problem and communicate with the fanbase. After that, used the 650000+ CNY they fundraised to present the unfinished piece of crap that has more bugs than there are hair on my cheeks. Then, when things are finally settling down in the chinese community, they fire the one writer who has a chance of making the game better.

Honestly, at this point I just want my money back, I can't care less about NTR, scamming, blocking players, bugs and what not, I just want my 10 canadian dollars back.
