another weekly update, backlog assassination is making progress… in the wrong direction? I need to activate less than I beat.
I won't say I loved it, I definitely did enjoy this though, I apparently missed an achievement right at the start(blowing the fire when at the campgrounds with Zoe) and making a new game(both NG+ and regular) didn't give me that event at the start again… I could theoretically do many more playthroughs without seeing it again as all the stuff going on in the game is randomized to do some extent at least.
if you have it, I recommend playing it.
game is ok, not to much to say about it but it felt to … similar throughout the game with minimal variance.
going to drag myself through 2 and 3 eventually… they don't look like they changed much, fortunately these are short.
I do not recommend buying these games

I regret entering to win this, I regret playing it.
Very short - check… game can be beaten in under 3 minutes if your very good at it(I am not)
awkward controls - check
is it hard - yes
game somehow still enjoyable -… yup
would I rather have this playtime to start up another VN… yes. Mostly because it was frustrating at times
Vampires' Melody
8.1 hours, 21 of 21 achievements
I didn't pay enough for this masterpiece
This game seriously needs to at least double its price… its more than worth it for a VN enjoyer at full price, let alone the sale price it consistently gets.
Great Art(see SS's, minimal spoilers there… you would need context which isn't in the SS's)
Great Music
Fully voiced female lead
sold story, multiple routes and a flow chart in game to help you see what you missed(certain choices determine what can happen much later)… I had to go back quite a bit to get the true ending(you can skip anything you had already been through, but not new paths)
recently got the fire skill and I do find myself doing side quests and going around exploring.
I suspect this will eat up the rest of my game this month and I won't get to outer worlds(and come October I am selecting new games to play, so it will get benched for later).
I am currently also playing Road 96. Like you, I missed the campfire achievement. Hopefully I am more lucky with NG+ as I have the feeling I also missed out on some tapes. At least twice it happened that someone offered me one but I had no money left on that character.
was your very first stop the trailer park camp when you started?
if so I might just need to delete all local files for the game and not just the save file.
Not exactly sure anymore. I think I failed the first time and died on the road from exhaustion. And then afterwards as one of the first stops I was at the camp and got the 2/3 achievements there.
I guess I was very lucky. Started a NG+ and story started sitting in the car, Jarod stopping the car and after that I was at the camp.
yup, I started a NG+… Jarod made me walk after burning a van, next stop was the stage for the minister speech.
I stopped there, was going to keep going to RNG into completion, I am not overly worred about 100% completion in games(Visual novels are slightly different… mostly because all achievements is usually exploring all the routes)
