The game constantly forces you into a shit position, not from your choices, but from shit balance. You're basically forced to go the "Abuse the author's oversights (I believe rushing wis+ glasses in the marketplace and then herb rush selling was one of the big ones, my farthest run was gotten through lighting zeds on fire on the cemetary mission which is much less profitable)" or "Become a prostitute and slutgrind"
The art is great but the loli kills it for me in the porn aspect, and the combat is just not fun. This is mostly do to every weapon killing your stamina which requires food to regen, while enemies can freely do whatever and rarely drop shit, if they were restricted to the main character's standards they'd be long dead from starvation. Apparently the companions are pretty op but I avoided them alltogether.
The game is also buggy as hell and unexplained at parts, like, apparently there's a minigame in prostitution to get your client off faster, resulting in you using less stamina and earning more, but I couldn't figure it out at all.
Many skills also are "exclusive skills" but that's never explained and you end up locking another skill out without realizing. To my memory some of the skills didn't even fucking work properly, and since they require stat dumping, you could completely fuck your character over by going for them. There's also some skills that exist just to fuck with you, like cooking. You cannot fucking cook without 10 levelups and raw meat restores fuck all. What the hell.
Leveling up is the slowest grind in existence, and I speak as someone who has basically beaten VH avoiding every non story forced encounter or retard-forced encounter (Fuck you whoever added stallion) Monsters also get stronger over time so you're forced to constantly get stronger (Which you can't, because even constant grinding enemies that are tough to you won't give you enough, forcing the abuse or prostitute route).
