Kind of seems like the wind is really out of Key/Visual Arts' sails at the moment? The anticipation of a new title from the famed creators of Clannad and Angel Beats! seems somewhat muted both here and elsewhere (the Key Studios Community on FB for example). Could be that a couple duds in a row (Charlotte, this season's Rewrite anime) have people skeptical or just worn out on the brand.
Obviously, this is just subjective from my POV. No offense meant to people who are going to get it on release day and dig right in. |

I knew I forgot to submit something else KEY-related to the news lol. The official site lists it as only $9.99 while it's leaked announcement poster showed it at $14.99. I find that a bit interesting. I really wonder how short the game is....I don't expect more than 10 hours.

Planetarian was about 3 hours (if you read quickly) to 6 hours (if you listened to the voices on "auto"). I'm expecting around the same length. There's no way you should ever expect a budget-priced kinetic novel with just a few characters to have much more than that.

I thought that Charlotte was "ok".. Rewrite however I agree 100% that was a big disappointment.
As for this... I'll probably pick it up.. article says its out today.. anyone grab it yet? |

If I was to buy this, it would go appropriate with my username. That is, in Greek myth, Kadmos is the Phoinikian prince who introduced the alphabet to the Greek and founded the city of Thivai (Thebes), Greece. His wife was harmony goddess, Harmonia.

Picked it up and 'played' it for a little over an hour on auto. Really lovely music. Very similar to Planetarian in that it's between a robot and a human in a seemingly post-apocalyptic world where there's a sentimental object that the protagonist needs to repair. The female lead Shiona is just as quirky as well, which will be pretty much immediately apparent in the first chapter. That said, I am intrigued and will definitely 'play' it to its conclusion. The notion of spoiler[Shiona being able to perceive the the feelings of the inner soul as colors and Rei only being able to observe external expressions] makes the 'robot learning emotions' basic premise more enjoyable for me. |
