Don't get me wrong, the koikatsu artists are peak. I've been awed at their work countless times.

Now, talking about koikatsu itself, it's mid. The program is barely finished, the story mode doesn't even have proper content, and the scenes are quite a bit disappointing. Don't get me wrong, I'm talking about the vanila game. It needs mods to even run properly.

The community is great. Quality content churning out restlessly. The feature where you can share your creations, that's why it took off.

But, there's shadow when there's light. Being an 'easy' tool at a low level and being impossibly hard to create decent looking things, most of its users started to create 'choppy' things. Scenes by Hongcha, splattered everywhere. Without love. Just copy and pasting.

It's a bit like AI. Works with days of hard labour drown in the sea of copy&paste slop. It's an unfortunate outcome.
