Re: Alistair ++: Travis Line

Re: Alistair ++

Title screen. Shuttup, I'm allowed a boring caption now
and again.

A game for PC/Mac, and more importantly FREE!!!!

Also, check out my Shiro (and coming soon Derek) line reviews. 

So, here's Travis:

Cause every girl needs cornered now and again?

Round two. Since I sorted out who Alistair was last time (SPOILER ALERT????? It's Derek. Oh noes.) I decided I'd save doucheboy for last and went with Travis this round. He likes Uh, computer networking or whatever and intelligence, so I focused on those two things and bought vidja games for him and all that good stuff.

I was so confused at this point because I thought we were
playing a computer game. But no, fake DS.

The game IS pretty short. Like, second round I finished it in maybe thirty-forty minutes. Admittedly, I also sorted out where the skip button was. Everyone should be proud of me--normally I'm terrible at sorting those things out.

Anyway, Travis wasn't so bad. Well, at least not until the end--he's funny, honestly has some intelligent quips that made me smirk. I mean, none of his CGs were all inspiring, and you don't even get a friggin' kiss like you do in Shiro's line.

But I did mention that he's honestly not bad until the end. Why does he suddenly become bad in the end? Well, allow me to show you:

All he needs is a fedora. And a sword.

Travis becomes an MRA. He calls you my lady. Tells you not to trip. AND YOU KNOW WHAT, THAT'S NOT COOL.

Yes, I'm probably stereotyping here. But you know what? It's a dating Sim. ALL YOUR MEN ARE STEREOTYPES.

SCORES

Each of the below categories is on a scale of 0 to 10 (0 being the worst, 10 being amazing). Thus the max total for a game is 40 points. "Rating" involves me giving a 0-10 rating depending on how NSFW the game is. 0 would mean it's so chaste there's nothing of the sort that would be even...remotely ...touchable. Or whatever. 10 would mean there's some hardcore raunchy sex. "Rating" is not calculated into the overall score.

NSFW Rating: 2: Re: Alistair ++ never actually even comes close to mentioning sex as a probability. Travis' line doesn't even have any remotely NSFW moments. Like, the closest you even get to kissing is at one point where Travis looks at your lips. 

--

Graphics: 6: I won't lie--Travis's face is really weird some times. Otherwise, they're not bad!

Gameplay: 7: Normal "select what your character does and stat up" process. It's easy to sort out what the boys like, etc, but it is honestly a simple little game I can appreciate. It's not trying to be more than it is.

Story: 9:  The story wasn't mindblowing by any means, but again--it wasn't trying to be more than it is. It was a cute story about a bet and a girl balancing her life. I appreciate this.

Fun: 10: I honestly had a lot of fun with this one. It was simple, straightforward.

Overall: 32 / 40 -- A B-.
