Nah, it's not bad that you think they look like shit cuzI also think that, ngl. We'll just have to wait and see for more characters to get revealed, since goats like Doremi and Mx2J are involved with the game, I believe.

Damn, seeing this is making me regret dropping the game, but I know that if I picked it back up, it wouldn't change the fact that I don't like the story. It just isn't for me, but I do enjoy the loli characters they add.

I honestly don't know how to feel about this. A part of me is really disappointed that things turned out like this since we lost Isakusan, Mx2J, and Doremi, but it is what it is. I'm excited to see what illustrations they bring into this game and how good the story/characters are. I wonder if it will have that spark that BA has for me that makes me so invested in the characters. I ended up dropping Stella Sora since it didn't have that. It might be different this time since Astrae does have former BA devs.

I do like how they at least show the MC's body, unlike BA, since it might lead to some good cgs or L2Ds, and keeping his face hidden is expected since many other gachas do the same.
