Street Hero

Played this for a bit even though I’m not normally a fan of HTML games.

The problem other than having no clue how to progress most paths by the walkthrough “hints” provided in game is that even if you REMEMBER to check them in order to figure out what the hell you have to do to get anywhere = the game DOES NOT WANT YOU TO.

> The convenience store clerk for example has a bar at her questline of a fight with a miniboss who’s level 19. Alright: We can do that… EVENTUALLY. Except no. You really can’t. You WILL be grinding until you get bored trying to get there for fuck sakes. Literally. For. Fuck’s. Sake.

= THEN if you DO get there > you find out she’s a fucking prostitute; and she gets PISSED at you for trying to “save her” from the idea she might be raped… and expects you will PAY her to get the option to EVENTUALLY “date” her. (Why would you want to; she’s basically the town doorknob!)

The way to progress to chapter 2 is to get past a bitch that wants you to be STRONG; the HINT system DOES NOT TELL YOU HOW STRONG YOU HAVE TO BE. I ended up getting to level 10 before I was able to pass her bar, and I still don’t know if I HAD to be that high… but the guy I was fighting was higher level than he should be for the second main quest line in the game.

Solution = Put the GIRLS in EXACT order of Intended PROGRESSION; state which chapter they fucking belong to, and exactly what has to be TRUE to open their paths.

There is one girl who opens a lot of paths up, who’s not even available until AFTER Chapter 2 starts > and you can’t get to chapter 2 WITHOUT progressing said “I like Strength” bitche’s character arc. The model you CAN find walking around in the evening, after you explore enough to find a poster of her… but that goes nowhere until MUCH LATER in the game. So she shouldn’t be INTRODUCED until MUCH LATER IN THE GAME!

= It did not matter what level I got to; I was seeing opponents sometimes 5 and 6 levels above mine – who WILL wipe the floor with you. No matter what build you try (mine was balanced – and I eventually went with higher strength and dex for HP and Stamina * Damage increase is NOWHERE NEAR noteable enough to even look like it’s DOING A DAMNED THING when you increase it – and Dex should be your DODGE TANK STAT. OR = Make Vitality INCREASE YOUR DAMAGE RESISTENCE!!!) There are TWO ways you should’ve implemented the ability to MITIGATE the damage the player can take in combat. Especially since you want this fucker to be Deku, without actually adding in the SUPERPOWERS.

All of this is why there was a NEED to make the spin off game that DOESN’T focus on the bullshit half baked – I have to save before getting into EVERY instance of Combat; because the computer is GOING to make me reload for deciding to give me a character I can’t beat MOST OFTEN – combat “system.” I don’t mind the premise, BUT the “real” porn scenes are NOT nearly hot, or long enough to get anything worth the amount of raw grinding and bullshit that you have to go through to see them in the first place.
