How is the game... overall?
I was excited to play the game at 1.0, but I was disappointed to discover that it crashed constantly, had loads of spelling errors and bugs, and that the plot was incomplete. The current discussions are... confusing for gauging the game's actual state. There seem to be a lot of people still having issues.

I'm interested in giving this one another try. Can someone give me an (mostly) objective, fair assessment of the game's state/quality right now?

Game is great for me. Have had no crashing or performance issues. Cant say about the plot have not got to the end yet.

There is plenty to do right now as it stands and fun addictive gameplay.

I love it as well. It is pretty, there are tons of things to do and I like the music and the vibes.

I just use the discussion boards to be apprised of actual issues and work-arounds, but the ones that are still there, you can mostly stear clear of. I haven't had a breakdown in forever, and even then, I immediately understood that ( and how) it was my fault and could be avoided the next time I encountered a similar situation.
It would help if more players would try to find information on what works instead of reposting in panic whenever somebody else discovered, say, that they can't use the teleporter to the farm and immediately conclude that the game is hopelessly broken.
Instead of searching the forum for one minute and finding the twenty or so threads telling panicked people that if the teleporter is encumbered, it won't work.

However, if you need a game that is 100%, even down to the spelling, Coral Island is still not for you.

I'll give the true neutral review since no one did until now

Is the game complete? TECNICALY yes. You can FINALLY reach town rank S and have a final cutscene with the town. The underwater and lake temple are also complete to rank S having another set of altars each.

Is the game ACTUALLY complete? HAHAHAHAHAHAH No. Its still full of TBA in the dialogs and each time the dev team 'fix' some bug they add about another 2 new ones. The last one is the auto-chest stopping working AGAIN and now the autochests and machines suddenly getting a message of 'another player is using it' even with you on single player mode.

Is the game worth playing again? Depend. If the last time you played was before the rank S, I'd say yes, it is. You can even marry one of the 3 mermaids, but 99% of the underwater things including the underwater farm is full of bugs so dont set your expectations very high on that part. The NPCs are still at best average and many still seem like their cutscenes is more about their pets than about they actual selves.

All in all its not a bad game. Since you already bought it any recomendations of ONLY BUY ON SALE is null since the game is absurdly pricy for its quality.

Hope to have helped you or anyone else reading this for some tips

Thank you!! This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for. I've had trouble getting an actual read on what's going on with the game. The last time I tried to get this info, I got attacked by fans who were like, "If you have a problem with this game, that's on you!!"
