Arcadia Fallen II

So this is similar to a lot of these choices based dating sim with similar tropes, and character archetypes. Shy girl, emo boy, stuck up girl ext. I don't say that as a negative, as I think part of the reason why someone would be play this kind of game and then see how the game takes those tropes and how the character evolves. To that I think they do a good job. I do wish you had some more customization on how your character looks, and how the story played out. However, I think overall it is well written, and while not totally voice acted it was more voice acted than I would've thought. To that point I think the voice acting is very nice. I think like most of these games the value comes from how much you enjoy each of the characters to do the different routes with different love interests. I think my first run about 8 hours, I'll probably run through it at least one more time and maybe even 2. At which point I think I the game is definitely worth the cost. If you're not sure if you'd like a visual novel I would say wait for a steeper discount. If you're a fan of the genre I would say you're likely to be pretty happy. Final Grade: B

游戏非常好玩，二周目稍显枯燥，但还是非常推荐。不过第三代我比较期待能玩伏地魔模拟器（雾）。

Great game, can't wait for whatever story this studio makes next! :D

I love Hannah so much, but I really wished this one had a "top" female romance option for us lesbians such as Victoria from the first game.

An outstanding sequel! There is so much replayability, and the character relationships are somehow ever better this time than the last time. The gradual way you gain friends and companions is very rewarding, and none of the romance route feels repetitive. There is even more customization that actually matters, I love it so much when pieces about the character have a mechanical effect. I think I prefer the minigame in the last game, but the pathways here are also fun and interesting, with a very handy hint mechanic built in. Just generally a very fun and interesting game in a world with fascinating lore that I hope to see more of.

I absolutely adored playing through Arcadia Fallen II! The writing of the story is so much fun and kept me theorizing what would come next in the story, all of the characters were entertaining and so easy to connect with and enjoy how they grew and changed over the story. I'm looking forward to seeing what games Galdra Studios comes out with next, especially if they continue the story and lore of the Arcadia universe.

好玩的，玩了1之后马上来玩2了。只是我以为1里面恋爱元素少这一点2里会改善一下，但感觉还是差不多……只有几个恋爱场景。还有就是像1一样结尾有点突然，但总体代入感还是很不错的，[spoiler]hyben死了之后hannah唱歌那里[/spoiler]给我看哭了

My favorite visual novel! It is truly a great one, specially if you played the first one and get the references and lore.

Really great Game, thank you for this Story! Can't wait for new advantures in Arcadia Fallen III ;)

相比上一作，剧情演出和人设都有长足进步，人物心理上相对上一作也基本摆脱了上一作一些标签化的毛病（虽然还是在学院教授的转变和反派心路历程上有些笔墨不足的情况出现），前代主角战斗爽的封印到这代变成纯粹的拧绳嘴遁大师也是一个有意思的点。美术风格和人设较为鲜明亮快，更加贴近学园题材，总的来说属于良作。 以下是一些吐槽的点 [spoiler] 1.两作主角立绘没做太多差分，完全可以让主角的立绘差分更加明显一些 2.反派有些偏脸谱化了，诸如反派女炼金师的背景，帝国的某些基础设定比如消灭馆藏派巫师等等设定其实可以再稍微拓展一下，稍微丰富一下帝国和女反派做出这种决定的背景让他们看着没那么无脑 3.舞台限定在学园里其实让起义和帝国崩溃这个两个大背景的呈现有所不足，整体来说故事的冲突性有所欠缺 4.[strike]绿毛妹和粉毛小哥这对主角理论上的青梅竹马不给攻略[/strike] [/spoiler]
