Review of "Trip of a LifeTime" version 0.5
1. Graphics
The characters are good enough, except for the weird transformations on the Pelvic Areas. All the women have very weird spacing around her pussies, to the point that some muscles are missing on the top of the thighs.
There's also some weirdness on the boobs, in all that were seen, there's something really strange going on.
All in all, the results are a bit Alien, sorry to say, not really that sexy.
Other than that the environment assets are OK, the lighting isn't terrible, but could be better almost 90% of the time. There's a tendency to NOT have shadows, resulting in some over illuminated scenes that contribute to a rather eerie feeling of artificiality.
The poses of the models are simplistic. Facial expressions don't exist. Body language is completely nonexistent. The eyes are the most obvious one, once you notice it, you'll never stop seeing them.
On the initial part of this last update, before the characters are redone (for the worse) the images are badly, badly, grained. It's only a few of them, but enough to point out.
The remake of the characters didn't help. The weirdness is still there, if not even worse.
On the last part of update 0.5, the lighting got worse. There's several inconsistencies with bed covers.
2. Story
If initially this sounded a bit cliché, the rest of the story hasn't made it any better.
The story is downright boring to the point of being the opposite of exciting.
It is truly an exercise in futility, with nothing to gain in return.
Not even the strong Incest flavor keeps this out of the absolutely pointless category.
3. Writing
When you read everything I said above, you may have some small hope that there is still something salvageable in this mess, or that I am being mean and am trying to throw a new creator out.
Sorry. That isn't the case at all. The writing in this, is absolutely atrocious. Both in Spanish and in English. The sentences are as prosaic and banal as possible. There's no flair. There's no character. There's not even an hint of passion. The dialogues are so bad, but so bad, that it would be better to not have them at all. Just the images of weirdly shaped people looking at each other with immobile still eyes, would actually be an improvement than the stupidity that are these dialogues. In both languages.
When you add to that the CONSTANT misgendering of everyone, in both languages, you will try to disable the text in order to save some brain cells.
There's nothing to save here. The story isn't worth saving, so, re-writing this is rather simple, delete all text and start over. If you want there's also a great many number of images that may be deleted as well as they serve no purpose.
4. Conclusion
This is getting worse. If the initial renderings were not good, they are worse now. The characters are still bad, getting worse. The writing was bad, is still bad, it can hardly be worse. The story was boring, now it is pointless.
As far as I can see there are 2 meaningless choices in this, neither is important. I will not consider the Xmas Dream as part of the story, it isn't.
Seriously, I've seen powerpoint presentations in classes that were more interesting than this, and I've fallen asleep with them.
There's only one way to save this, scrap the whole text, hire, or convince someone to write a story for these renders, either in English or Spanish, with dialogues that are worth reading and maybe a story of some kind...
The renders are mostly bad, but, could be usable. Yes, they would still lower the quality of the project, but, it would still save some of the Dev's work.
5. Rating
I can't in all honesty rate this above a ONE. Not because it is Bad, but because I can't give a ZERO.
It isn't even bad enough to be ironically bad.
Recommendation: Go ahead... waste your time... You've been warned.
