After the third or fourth time, it would definitely get stupid. I'm glad you find this site helpful, that's what this is here for. ...But, if I have to be harsh to prove a point, then so be it. The criticisms are supposed to be of help and provide a closer look at the visual novel that an ultra positive review might not bring. That's the main reason for the disclaimer. Thanks for reading.

I thought you would be way harsher than you ended up (like, 4ch harsh), but this has been very helpful (of course, the opinion might change once you review any game I had a part in ^_^) The reason for the 'Pat on the back' approach was in 2005, 2006 and early 2007, getting a visual novel out in the first place was extremely hard. So anything that was completed was a feat in itself. But of course now, with over 80+ games, we can afford now to be critical. Interesting approach.
