Interesting concept... horribly executed! It's almost impossible to keep track of story lines because you're switching characters every 2 minutes. You actually spend almost as much time being asked if you want to save in the load screen than you do "playing" the game. The lewd scenes are just awful and so few and far between. The User Interface may be the worst I've even seen in an AVN.

I don't post many reviews, but I made sure to get this one in early, because I can't find a single good thing to say about this game.

Too much conversation, too little options to choose and barely any animations. Was very bored and started skipping all conversations after 2 hours of gameplay. Not a thing I'd normally do but this was an exception. A very sad and unsuccessful successor to the original Living with Serena.

Ok, so I wanted to like this game, but it's just boring! Plus, the interface sucks. Why can't I save whenever I want? Why can't I go back to the previous screen?

Honestly, just frustrating.

My first ever review because I usually do not feel that strongly about games I have played on steam but so far this one deserves it. I can't even get past the first day so far as it keeps freezing after getting the BJ from Nicole.I kinda enjoyed the LWT game, still waiting for the promised update though, and had a bit of hope for this one as well but so far it has not been a good first impression. I used the top answers for the first 3 times I attempted to play it and got the BJ and then it freezes every time on the dialog as she is leaving "unusual for her to turn down sex". I can only imagine that the rest of the game is just as broken as the first 3 minutes but can't tell yet as I can't get passed them. I will attempt to play some more to see if other answers work but the rest of the game could be the greatest game ever but due to this first impression of it I will never like it.

Got it to work eventually. I still don't like it.
1) A skip feature is there eventually and only sometimes. But it skips over the entire segment not just the dialog leading up to the "choices". Sometimes you press it and it takes you further back and then disappears.
Revised: It is really broken and utterly useless, best bet is to break your finger clicking through all the dialog.
2) I like AVN's that are told from a single perspective not multiple peoples. Sometimes you read 15-20 lines of dialog and then it jumps to some one else.
3) Less than 3 hours in and have nearly everything unlocked except a few endings, which I don't care about, so it is an extremely short game, IMO.
4) The animations are not really that great and the story is lacking anything that makes you care.
5) Got it to freeze a few more times, luckily the skip button moved it to the next scene.

All in all. For a $6.00 game it might be ok, for the price I paid for it it isn't good. 4/10 Revised 2/10, only good if free.

Updated review 2, Thank you for the rewards.

While I do not care about the endings at all, I did play a bit more to try and get all the scenes because I was very bored. I got 2 out of the 3 I was missing and gave up on the game again. I just fricking hate it. Some of the scenes just look like they did a few 2d renderings and cut a slit in the mouth and just moved them back and forth ( I know they didn't, just my visual reference) others just look like those weather vanes, you know the ones. The story is just ........ not good, at all. By the end I wanted a option for the characters to step into traffic. This will be my last rant on it as I will never play it again. I have learned my lesson.

the romantic novel idea was a very bad idea, the whole "gaming experience" is removed and replaced by meaningless clicking. its lazy and meaningless. I was a fan of the old Serena, when you had stats, and you cloud trigger events! when you could see the (LOP) concept behind the game, like (LWT)! and most of LOP good work! interactive focused and mostly relay fun!

yes its a good story yes it has a lot of renders, but no its not a good game, because its not interactive, a mess of characters and a very boring experience in general. there must be a fin blend of storytelling and interactivity so i can cal it a game, this is a story realty, a novel and its not what i expected from LOP.

i think you go to LPO for the commen denominator on how the game mechanics is applyed. and you expect that in an LPO product, its just that market testing shouldn't be applied on classics! Serena was one of the best games you had, but not in this eddoration. mabey in the futuer on hopes!

The game is decent & overall good, will see how it holds up.

Review - (On Hold)

I don't know what the heck is going on in this game???? This games says you should be playing as Serena but when you play this game you play as every character in the game. This game plays out like a weekday soap opera and it bounces around all over the place. The Dev should just focus on Serena and a solid story because i got so confused i just started speeding through the game. Then theirs the multi endings i hate multi endings. 2 or 3 endings are fine but why do you need 9. As usual because there are so may endings no telling where the game may end at. Good where getting a few females in this type of genera because male MC are getting repetitive and boring. But know one can make a good female lead game.

My first review after 25min of playtime. In these 25 minutes, I have played about a dozen characters; it's a jumping back and forth. The main character or I assume he is, is a ♥♥♥♥♥ crying about his breakup with Long boring conversations. The other characters you play, you have no clue who they are; it's just a mess. Every 2 minutes, you are playing someone else without knowing any relationships.

Was skeptical after some of the negative reviews but bought it anyway and I'm glad I did! Hell people have opinions and that's fine so don't be mislead by the bad reviews. I like the switching characters myself and I would like to see more take this route as it adds alot of options! and I don't have a problem with the interface or the save feature as you always have the opp to save in between switching characters and it doesn't take that long to get back where you were anyway although a couple more save slots would be good for the different paths. It's a very good vn imo but one thing I would ask of the the dev is to add a back option so please consider this in a future patch. All in all nice job to the dev and staff! and lol I had to edit a couple times as tequila impairs my typing ability by alot! ;)

There is way too much reading in this game. My God. Sometimes it isn't worth it to spend so much energy just to have sex with a woman in real life much less in a game that progresses so slow that I can only handle small sextions of time to play it.
