Undecided On Whether Or Not I Enjoy This

[Something]

Edit: On top of everything I said below, it appears this game is being flagged as a wacatac trojan by windows defender. And there's multiple reports of it too. Developer confirmed reports. Hah. No thanks champ I'm out.

I've only played a couple hours so far but I already get the sense of where this is going and this games over-all message. Let me take a wild stab in the dark here based just on what I've seen so far. The message this game is trying to push is that trans people believe they are being oppressed and persecuted like witches, right? That's the vibe that seems to be coming off pretty strong right now. Whoever beats this game before me lemme know how close I was.

I had to turn the volume down myself because the voice acting imo was grating. And it's not because a lot of the characters, including the main one is voiced by some trans person. That I don't care about. What urks me about it though is like the voice actors were given the direction to like say all their lines sensually. Trying to sound dark, mysterious and kewl with the typical forced lisp you'd come to expect from someone seeking attention it makes me wanna just rip my ears off. If it was just the forced lisp it wouldn't bother me but it's the fact they all try to sound like a mix between Batman and the shyboi in some korean k-pop group or anime. I'm sorry but you'll NEVER be Batman. Or I guess in your people's case, you'll never be Batperson. Maybe it'd be different if the tone of the voice acting matched the lines of dialogue that were written. But the character is written AND voice acted completely differently.

Why does the "male" option stand the way he does? Butt up to God belly down to Satan like he's one hand-on-hip away from being America's Next Top karen. I could understand some weapon stances being flamboyant like for rapiers and whatnot since some weapon arts were designed around those particular stances. But the male character option is like that in every stance. Why? Is it just you guys don't understand how anatomy works so the torso is several times longer than the legs? If you want me to play a woman why give me the option to be a man? And the voice options are terrible. It's like I can either have my character sound like korean trans batman or a soyboi. Neither of which fit with half the face options.

I also hate that weird fishbowl antialiasing effect that the game has on by default. Like I'm glad I can disable it through turning off post processing effects, but it sucks that I gotta disable ALL PPE just to be able to see the things at the edge of my screen more in focus.

Then of course there's the EULA stuff I didn't realize until after I started playing. So far my personal initial opinion is "mixed". Next time I play it I'll have to turn the sound off, skip the dialogue and listen to a podcast or something in the background and see if I don't enjoy it more.
