I’m taking a short break from Axel (just like with Caramia and Kyrie there are a lot of endings/CGs to get with him so it’s taking a good while)
My phone alerted me to a new Shall We Date? game, and it looks like we got Otomate’s Nise no Chigiri, English title Eternal Vows.
Since I had google opinion reward credits to cover (seriously if you have an android phone get this app it’s free money for doing surveys that take less than a minute), I bought eyepatch mcgee Kansuke Yamamoto.
So the prologue is a bit of an infodump and even though I love Samurai Warriors I know nothing about Japanese history and all these names and the like are just going over my head
so you’re uhhh I changed her name to Keiko and forgot her default name sorry — and you’re a uni student and get transported 500 years into the past.
That got me thinking. Japan 500 years ago was really cool samurai and warring states and other cool shit. In America it’d be what, cowboys and indians? I don’t really like that, because of how horribly the indians were treated but then I thought about the revolutionary war
and imagined the founding fathers as ikemen
And I’m sitting there laughing like a crazed fool at the thought
So naturally I have to tell Strawbarely this great idea since she’s my newfound crime partner in the world of otoge

Anyway, I tried to play through eyepatch mcgee and fell asleep. Tried again, fell asleep. Tried a third time, fell asleep.
In short, this game is boring. On the third time I finally got to see him, but not interact with him. That was in chapter two.
I’ll try one more time to get through him and if not I guess it’s not meant to be. At least I didn’t waste money on it.
