32 of 32 · most liked firstSo I hate this in Nova Hearts, I basically rejected this guy at every turn and then the game has my character say he is cute. It feels like this is some kind of "canon" ship the game wants me to follow cuz it has not done this with the other characters, she's not talked about how hot her friends are

unlabelledView post →Nova Hearts is technically not a game I would go for (not big on dating sim/visual novel) but was curious about the magical girl aspect of it. Cast is fun and diverse, I liked the story (and didn't feel too much like a VN in the end) and the art is super pretty. Glad i gave it a try ^^

Absolum, Hotel Barcelona, and Mina the Hollower were my favourites this time! Shout out to Ratatan and Nova Hearts - gorgeous, just not my kind of game

unlabelledView post →Anyway I just finished Nova Hearts. It was a fine game. But after the same studio made Othercide, I'd been expecting another amazing game. Alas, not all of your artistic works turn out as you hope, something I know well. I swear, the more effort I put into a story, the fewer people like it.

unlabelledView post →i am disappointed to report that Nova Hearts is not good, at least based on what we can play right now. there are some cute moments, but the writing's really clichéd even by VN standards (or it's well written and the characters are absolutely brick stupid), and the combat is repetitive, slow, and unsatisfying. dating sim mechanics are just an add-on to other genres. if you're gonna do turn-based JRPG combat (Nova Hearts is not TBT, unfortunately) plus dating sim, you're not competing with other…
