Finishe Semiramis - I will say I am disappointed - the scale is more or a less a
a moral detector rather than a sanity detector where you go extreme/overflow at either end, you get on the Bad End. It has no other real function which is a shame. Given the theme was a little more serious than the average, the meaningful Bad Ends were lacking substance (other Bad ends are just 10 lines like "she disappears, back to my normal life"). The biggest shame is despite the description, MC is just completely undriven/detached, and severely lacking in self analysis/actualization. I had expected the voice in his head would play the part of feedback/analysis to make this supposed corruption more concrete with a sustantial body. This was not to be, and there was very little both in internal dialogue (this was low too) or external with the heroines. Despite being a MC with a face, he feels more empty than the usual MC without a face! Looking at the comment in the Extra section, I can't but help theme/idea is a little too grand to execute, or the writer just lacking ability to do it (may be someone like shumon can, but that's just empty speculation on my part).

Reasonable quality CG/Art, reasonable bgm/voices; this VN lacks romance/harem fluff so there isn't anything to fall back on when the serious stuff failed. I have small regret on the hours spent - 6/10. Well you win some, lose some.
