Bloody Chronicles - New Cycle of Death Visual Novel

The game is incomplete. This is only Act 1 of 3. They are working on 2 other different RPG games as of September 5,2020. I don't know if I will have to buy the other 2 acts. The art is nice and the setting is fine, but they keep repeating themselves. Also there is a lot of foreshadowing and because they keep repeating themselves it is very easy to tell what is going to happen. I understand they are trying to build character development and relationships, but repeating what the character is thinking and then having dialogue that repeats the thoughts of the characters, then having the characters talk about what they talked about the next day isn't interesting. There are side stories, and sub plots, but they feel so out of place. You are talking about murders one day then the next you are having a lighthearted subplot. People should be much more Sad and much more on edge and much more upset. There is someone killing people, people should be afraid, they all act like they aren't afraid. Literally spent 7 hours on this and it did not need to take 7 hours to tell the story.

I'll start with 'art was good' because this is the only good thing I can say about this game. At first it gave off some [i]Kara no Shoujo[/i] vibes with gruesome murders and all but it all went down the drain with flat jokes, storyline that leads nowhere and supposedly adult detectives behaving like preschoolers. At the point when lily of the valley was stated as deadly poison I almost stopped reading but it all got way worse when I finally did. All in all what you should be aware of: - voice acting. It's flat and most actors struggle with Japanese names so much it's painful; - characters. Their personalities (assuming they had any to begin with) are all over the place, like a bunch of different people wrote lines for the same character at different points in time; - humour. 'This is a chicken. This is a chicken joke. A chicken joke about chicken. Why aren't you laughing?!' - detective work. I don't even know where to start, that's how bad it is. Characters struggle with the most obvious clues, come to random conclusions based on 'I have the main character powers!' magic and could make a chair look highly intelligent in comparison. I'm glad I bought this game on sale and sad I bought it at all.

这游戏CV用的是英配，我是万万没有想到的，惊喜多于意外。 主角五天团的CV非常专业且给力（男主没有CV），在丰富的语气变化和情感波动，配合剧本对人物的丰满塑造，每个角色演绎得相当出色。相当多的配角配音比较欠缺情感表现力，发音非常平淡（警察助手妹子和小萝莉真可爱）。 就我个人而言，相对于日语，英语最为更常用接触更多的语言，代入感一下子Max，能够更容易代入到故事里去。英配悬疑故事更像是看着一种悬疑侦探大片的感觉。 一些词语在英配和英文名发音更标准的情况下Get到会更有趣 ，又或者原谅我的笑点 (比如 GTA game，Pokémon cosplay, Sherlock Winplay - SherWin lockplay，还有制作组给自己的 War of Ashird 打广告等等)。 而存在的问题就是游戏里的一些句子翻译没有过多的修正，例如 So cute (You are interesting也好哇!), Big bro (你直接叫Brother Akito也好哇!)。 题外话，英配也不是什么新鲜事了，基本上每一个日漫都有英配，连载有海贼王博人转妖尾, 最新有魔禁刀剑紫罗兰，改编如Clannad石头门ISLAND, 或老至星际牛仔龙珠圣斗士等等，且质量不低。 游戏的音乐也是十分出色，气氛渲染到位，在日常、搞笑、猜测、商讨都会变动着各种相对应的音乐，很好地让玩家融入到故事里面。 立绘非常棒非常好看，妹子们都非常的棒，而且登场人物也非常多，数量相当足够。场景的绘画也非常的多。CG的数量也是多达12页，但CG是请的外包吗？色彩线条和立绘完全不是有一个层次，有的侧脸还"面部狰狞"，简直是天上地下。DLC和IF里的CG居然没有算进去里面。 游戏里的主角都已经成年且毕业，非校园题材的真·成年人故事还是十分的特别。这还是 Igrasil Studio 的处女作（是吧？steam仅且只有一个），游戏里主角的组织也叫做Igrasil。凶手作案手段比较离奇，带有一些宗教神话色彩，凶杀现场场景还是挺给力的。故事里对宗教神话进行各种解答分析也十分精彩。 在每一次凶杀案件之间穿插着不少的日常，轻松幽默，丰富了主角五人团的人物塑造，缓解各种推理的烧脑。不过某些事件和主线之间并没有多大交集，删掉也不会影响人物之间的关系，有点冗余。 选项很多，有着非常多的额外小故事。前期的选项会影响后面故事里你是否知道某个人的身份，偶遇到某个人物。这种微妙的变化还是挺有趣的。 显然制作组挖了不少坑，每个人都有着不为人知的秘密，也没有在游戏里过多的解释。中期的部分事件让人轻松地猜到了凶手身份，导致观看结局我的心情并没有多大起伏(幻影CV还挺带感的)。 立绘人物与场景数量、内容充实度、完美渲染的音乐，难以想象这只是坑爹的ACT 1，到故事的最后并结合前面宗教探索，有预感下一作的发展会更精彩，让我不禁对ACT 2 以及ACT 3 抱着更好更大的期待。当然我非常希望能够启用CV原班人马，因为我玩了一个支线剧情以及IF结局，居然没有了配音，我怀疑制作组是不是要跑路了（毕竟跑去弄RPG新作而不是弄续作）。 晶纪都要哭了，制作组你们忍心吗？ https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2100427105

I think this game broke me. The story is truly awful and basically impossible to follow. The characters are all terrible people, not remotely funny, and make absolutely terrible detectives. I got 2.5 hours into the game and almost to the end of the first chapter before I couldn't take the absolutely awful writing anymore. The "clues" are entirely conjecture, one of the characters actively throws the police off the murder's trail as a joke, the characters are just genuinely unlikeable. And I'm pretty sure Kaoru is not wearing anything below her boobs.

The story has a lot of potential, and I am interested in what happens but there's also a lot of room for improvement. I know that some people like the voice acting, but personally, while I could tell the voice actors were trying, they couldn't make me believe they were the characters and it was too distracting so I ended up putting voices on mute. The characters felt very flat, and it felt like the they were given troopy personalities with no real depth. While a lot of people praised them on their detective skills, they looked and felt more like a high school students with an in to the police force and that's why they got to interfere. There were also quite a lot of moments, like going to the museum, that felt very forced and ridiculous. The art was well done, but it was a bit too polished, if that makes sense. The art lacked the thing needed to really get you into the more gruesome and ominous parts of the story, though it worked well with the more slice of life parts. Overall, while I can't really recommend it to most people, I do think that this has potential and I think that the team can go far if they continue to work on their writing, maybe tighten it up in areas because it did drone on unnecessarily at points, fleshed out the characters more, and also work on the voice actors bit and creating the right atmosphere. They got close a couple of times. The only other parts are mostly nitpicks. Like I couldn't stand the white haired kids. They were just annoying. And the fact that Kazuki was immediately hostile towards every male character in the story. Like, all he had to do was look at them and he already hated and was annoyed by them, and it got predictable and ridiculous after a while. Also, maybe don't make one of the characters have pants that ride so low at the beginning of the game that it appears she's not wearing pants.

Came back to write a short review because the overall review of this game has surprised me. I was looking forward to this game before its release, being quite a fan of VNs in general. The game was a disappointment. I have to admit I didn't play through it. The writing is really bad. The language is rather... amateur and the structure isn't great. The game just drags and drags and can't get to the point. I started skipping a few hours in, hoping it will get better, but it didn't. So I stopped playing. Can't remember much of the plot but I don't recall it being anything stunning. Certainly not enough to make this game playable despite the writing. Can't recommend.

宣传片神剪辑，表面悬疑推理，十分紧张刺激。 实际游戏体验下来，完全不是那么回事。 剧本方面问题很大，剧情拖沓，废话太多。 大量分支用在无关的恋爱路线。 很简单的破案剧情却故弄玄虚，结局也并不难猜到，况且最后还挖了个巨大无比的坑。 唯二的优点是立绘还可以，且全程英文配音，除此以外好像没了。 看这评测数量，应该是没啥销量。 第二部估计很难出来了。

非政府特別捜査機関イグラシル（私立警察的な組織）に所属する主人公とその同僚達が謎の連続殺人事件を追うミステリーノベル。 メインストーリーとなるファントム事件の謎はプレイ時間にして20数時間以上かかるが主人公が捜査に参加しても手がかりはほとんど得られず、事件の鍵となる世界各国の宗教に関する情報ばかりが集まる。 しかも捜査はプレイから15時間以上経過してもまるで進展せず、基本的な情報も別行動していた同僚の口から聞かされるだけで捜査に関わる部分はあまり無い。 ファントム以外の殺人事件も1件を除いては主人公の預かり知らぬところで事件が解決しフェードアウトするためやはり本格的に関わることはない。 そして、プレイヤー側で得られる情報と主人公のとある癖を照らし合わせて出てくるのはまさに最悪の…といってもいい、たった一つの予想。 『主人公』が情報を集める意味など、最初から存在しなかったのだ。 正直にいってメインストーリーはミステリーものとして致命的に面白くない内容の作品なのでオススメはできない。

Eres un detective que investigas junto a una agencia de detectives asesinatos en serie bastante macabros, quieres dar con el asesino hasta llegar incluso a obsesionarte con el caso. Pros Tiene una duración adecuada, tiene varias rutas y una multitud de decisiones con diferentes resultados. Eiko, Suzumi, Kaoru ... xD Akito tambien... No, no es el de Air Gear xD Aunque tiene sus momentos serios es bastante graciosa. Está doblada al inglés. Es bastante barata Puedes vivir sin los DLCs. xD Contras Sin textos al Español. Algunos personajes que aparecen no se vuelve a saber nada de ellos según pasa la obra. Algunos textos no concuerdan exactamente con lo que dicen. La segunda parte y los demás DLCs pa cuando xD

半成品，不建议买
