[h3]Don't confuse “A very VERY difficult” with something that's just badly designed from the start[/h3]
[h1]✒️Review [/h1]
[h3]✍️Overview [/h3]
Deathblight Jormungandr is a hentai RPG with hardly any story, focusing more on “combat” and sexual content. In it, you play as Loki, a sultry goddess, as she investigates a swamp where everything has spiraled out of control and lustful goblins are running amok, and Loki must find a solution to this.
[h3]🛠️Technical section[/h3]
Technically, the game isn't anything special. Visually, it looks like just another run-of-the-mill RPG with generic 3D models and character sprites. On top of that, the sparsely populated world makes it look incomplete. The only aspect worth highlighting is the artwork for the protagonist's portrait and the sex scenes during combat or at the end. It stands out significantly from most RPGs. Finally, it’s worth mentioning that the game doesn’t feature voice acting. However, it does have vocal sound effects in certain scenes, which helps during those moments of self-gratification.
[h3]🎮Gameplay[/h3]
In terms of gameplay, this RPG is similar to others in the genre. It features an open-world "dungeon" environment to explore and enemies that appear on the map and trigger turn-based combat when touched. However, it breaks the mold of the traditional RPG genre by eliminating the level-up system entirely, meaning battles only reward you with gold, which is of little use. The combat system is also different. You can't just spam your strongest attack to finish everything off quickly. Instead, you have to "counter" enemy attacks, which you can preview before they are executed. For example, you use the "counter" command for disarm or special attacks and "paralyze" for heart-based sexual attacks, among others.
This system complicates combat because you must pay close attention to the enemy's actions to avoid getting stuck in a loop where the enemies take advantage of the protagonist. The system itself isn't bad; it adds difficulty to adult games, which are often easy. However, it has a major flaw that can make combat tedious and unfulfilling.
First, this system is only fun with one or two enemies because the protagonist lacks area-of-effect attacks, at least initially. As soon as there are three or more enemies, their random attacks can result in combinations of every possible type, meaning you can’t counter them all and will take damage. The biggest problem, however, is that when a sexual attack hits, the protagonist goes into heat and gets raped. This puts you in a situation where you can’t do anything but try to escape. Though, this also has a success rate. If you fail, you’ll have to wait a turn to recover "TP" in order to try using the "struggle" command. During this time, you’ll lose HP as well as MP.
Additionally, the game features status effects that can disarm you or put you in a "horny" state. This forces you to use your entire turn to remove the status effect. If an enemy attacks you with a status effect right after you’ve removed it, it's as if you hadn't done anything on your turn, which happens much more often than it seems. In essence, the battles are the worst part of the game.
This wouldn't be so bad if the battles were optional. Even though the developer claims that "you can avoid unnecessary fights," once a battle starts, you can't escape it. On top of that, there are mandatory boss battles that you can’t avoid if you want to progress.
[h3]🔞Sexual content[/h3]
The only redeeming factor of this game is its sexual content. Thanks to its well-crafted art and the fact that every enemy can sexually assault the protagonist, the game features a decent number of high-quality, uncensored static sex scenes with a variety of enemies.
These scenes only feature non-consensual content with regular goblins, ogres, tentacles, insects, and other enemies typical of fantasy RPGs.
The scenes don't have much CG, so they aren't fluid. You can only see moments right before penetration, during penetration, and a final image of the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. It's not much, but it's enough to be considered good fap material.
[h2]💭Conclusion[/h2]
I loved the visuals in this game. It really stands out from similar games. Other than that, though, I didn't like it at all.
There is no navigation system, so you don't know where to go, what to do, which paths lead anywhere, or which rooms you can enter.
The game doesn’t reward you for fighting. Instead, battles are so tedious that you end up avoiding them at all costs. In fact, if I accidentally encounter an enemy, I’d rather reset the game than fight.
Although the game offers power-ups that make combat easier, like donating 1,500 gold to a statue, the awful combat system still penalizes you based on luck, and you end up in the same situation anyway.
The game also lacks an autosave feature. If you lose a battle or—even worse—fall into a trap with an instant "game over," you have to start over from the last saved point.
Overall, I think the developers intended this game to be the "Dark Souls" of HRPGs—difficult yet rewarding—but it turned out to be tedious, slow, and repetitive. Finding more sex scenes motivated me to progress, but ultimately, it drove me to despair because I wasn't having fun.
For all these reasons, I do not recommend this game, since you won't enjoy playing it.
I'd only give this game another chance if they added an easy mode, reduced the number of enemies in each battle to a maximum of two or three, and included a tutorial or, at least, a gallery with the option to unlock everything from the start.
