Dreams of Desire is a game that, for me, was somewhere in the middle, but ended up falling on the bad side of the line. The reason is mostly the story. Don't take me wrong, it has some pretty decent ideas, even though all the "magic is real and there are secret organizations" is way too cliche. But the first problem with the story is how it develops, it has plenty of scenes that don't add much and many good ideas are lost on the way. And, what is worse in this kind of game, it feel like choices have no impact in how things go on anyway. So it ended up becoming a bummer and, even though I started readin everything with interest, it all ended up becoming a quick skip button mash. And I don't get it why people call every other "roommate" or "landlady" when they clearly have the relationship of family, not of people sharing a flat.
As far as render quality goes, the game has some pretty decent ones. Animations are so-so, a bit mechanical and uninteresting on many occasions though there is some improvement as the game progresses. And, as far as sound goes, I muted it since almost the beginning since I didn't like the music it played. And, at least for me, there were no bugs worthy of mentioning.
So, all in all, it's not a terrible game, but it isn't good either. And it ends up feeling pointless and unrewarding to advance.
