Player Comments of Mayfly:

OK so it's probably just me being biased I find it cool 2 play as more of a vigilante in a superpowered world than as a straight up "be a hero" wannabe. The opening main storyline intro was kinda cool as well with a setting up 4 encountering potential villains as well. There are already talks about morality 2 do with law enforcement and scientific research via government approved funding being used 2vhave better control over the superpowered population as well. Really interesting shit.

Unfortunately other than that its more just set up into the 1st arc after tge sex scene with the fake sister.

VR mission = nothing burger 4 me tbh. Nothing 2 special or noteworthy. Just sum talks about the inner goings of the Devon city, just power dynamics/ politics really tbh.

Don't remember too much but there is an underlying mystery over the disappearance of the woman vigilante *think her name was Pandora or smth) who previously held the position of mc at the job of the main cast. Does she have something to do with the fake calypso from the VR world. It's 2 early 4 my dumbass self 2 wrap my brain around dis. I think they were there to steal something from the mafia that was behind the bank heist at the start of the game or maybe I'm just bugging.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure we have a "hunter association" as well which adds 2 the worldbuilding of the setting. If I remember correctly, they work more officially as police partners while our group just co operate with ling the hacker (iirc that's her name ling). We see influential ppl in business as well like havaishin as well as a dynamic of the poorer undercity and whatever else in Devon City is richer I guess. Criminals use tech from underworld deals 2 physically enhance themselves 4 underground fighting and other illegal dealings.

Overall it feels like a mix of cyberpunk in terms of the futuristic vibes of the fictional era ts takes place, the dark bleakness/ kind of noise vibe of a Gotham city where we always have 2 worry about ambitious underworld figures as well as the growing influence of big corporations and organisations with political ties and marvel with the somewhat original dynamics of the superpowered individuals and how they work with/around the law enforcement in the area.

Overall it has potential, but its too early to tell if it will reach its potential with time.

Edit: Dev, regardless of how u feel about this or ur current mental state as of the time I'm making ts, please fuckin ignore the dumbfuck eternum fanboys/glazers who scream eternum ripoff at literally any hs2 game that has its shine/potential 2 be the next big thing (mbml, new horizon, wildcats, cross realms, stray incubus and debatable realm invader/between humanity if u wanna stretch it as well on reddit).

They clearly didn't read the synopsis, skipped the real world bank heist and said that the vr party heist was stolen from the casino heist arc like any1 actually gives a shit. Cybernetic seduction literally has the same fuckin shit. Is that a ripoff 2 u as well u braindead fucks.

Dev at the end of the day, they can fuck right off back 2 wherever they came from. Just focus on ur game. It's basically good 4 now but only cuz of the overall setting in the background and worldbuilding aspects. Needs much more content in v0.3 onwards until a final verdict of whether this can compete with other games that are considered 2 be great or not can officially be made. So u do unfortunately need to step up the play if u want ur game 2 be acknowledged/recognized as a good thing going by a wider general audience.

Final words:

Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Devon, where superpowers and crime collide. As a member of the Vigilantes, your choices will shape the destiny of the city. Navigate moral dilemmas, utilize your superpowers, and adapt to the evolving public perception.
