I agree with much of what you said, including about Ann and the creep bartender. It is sickening that on most paths the innocent and intelligent Ann quickly becomes sexually involved with the creep, often under the influence of drugs or alcohol, but then she also has exhibitionistic unprotected sex with two strangers, another huge discrepancy in character. Given that these acts are unlikely to be undone in the game, maybe her conscience or common sense could kick in at some point despite outside influence? I get corruption stories, but I have a hard time understanding and enjoying such wild inconsistencies in character. She would have experienced peer pressure many times before, and thus to suddenly and unabashedly fall in line with others' extreme expectations is absurd.

I'm generally not a fan of NTR, but I sometimes will make an exception if the sex scenes are especially hot, which for me is the case with this game.
However, I dislike the excessive use of the word "bitch" when referring to women. This is like the equivalent of repeatedly referring to a man as an "asshole" while having sex. I can understand more the use of the word "bitch" if it's in regard to a rude woman or a woman someone wants to dominate, like an arrogant boss lady. However, the game would be better for me if in most cases when "bitch" is used currently the word "slut" instead would be used. The typical meanings of the words "bitch" and "slut" can easily be looked up online to see what I'm saying. I find the excessive use of the word "bitch" to be unnecessarily demeaning. Also, there's plenty of women who would be okay with being called a "slut" as part of dirty talk during sex but would not be okay with being called a "bitch."
Though the developer said "it'll likely be in a different medium" when continued, I hope that they have a change of heart and choose to see the story through in the current medium. Evermore is highly rated as a visual novel on a number of sites that feature games with lewd or erotic content. So I keep asking: Why not see such a good thing through to the end in the way that has worked well so far?
I was about to leave a review of my own, but because I largely agree with what Jswim34 already said, I instead will mostly second his sentiments. I was surprised in stumbling across this game recently and greatly enjoy the fantasy plot mixed with a diverse array of attractive female characters who can be romanced. However, I too did find that some of the sex scenes were becoming a bit too repetitive in the later parts of the game.
The sex scenes are the strength of this game for me. Although a previous commenter complained about every woman having a similar body type, my counter thought is that I appreciate the women having more naturalistic features and body types that are not so extreme. For example, I am tired of what seems to be the current industry standard of having all (or nearly all) female characters with large breasts, which is about as realistic as almost every male main character having a donkey dick.
I'm enjoying this game so far. I think that it offers a quite unique approach to building a harem, centering on the introduction of a new, often suggestive tenant. The art is top notch; I like all of the characters; there is a lot of humor (including sexual innuendo); and the sex scenes are hot. I look forward to further development.
Even in one of the main (relatively milder) paths, Ann becomes an exhibitionist who has rough unprotected sex with strangers, a high risk behavior for contracting STDs. And I'm expected to believe that this straight laced, aspiring medical student goes through that extreme of changes in a matter of days?
This game has some hot sex scenes, but I cannot give it a full 5 stars, in part because of the portrayal of Ann. At the start of the game, she is a sweet, innocent, caring, studious, and reserved virgin who graduated from an elite school. Yet one path rather easily turns her into an attention seeking cuck queen. Another path rather easily turns her into someone who wantonly wants to have more than one boyfriend, including an obviously sleazy bartender. Then another path sees her increasingly become involved with the same sleazy bartender as part of a revenge sex route. For an individual who supposedly is smart and wants to attend med school, it sure isn't difficult for her slut friend Vanessa to get her to take an unspecified drug, and she is far too susceptible to undue influence, to the point of hypocrisy. I hope that Emily and Alex are handled better throughout the game because as it currently stands the two females with the most action (Vanessa and Ann) are quite dislikable along most paths.
Would there be any possibility of converting Lin from being just Obedient and Loyal to allowing for her to be Affectionate and In Love, whether as a replacement or an addition (which storywise perhaps could involve her falling in love as the main character supports her quest for elven freedom and equality)? There already has been talk about how a half-elf offspring would be treated given current circumstances, and thus Lin's willingness to consider having a more romantic relationship with the main character might open up as having a future together with children becomes more acceptable.
Are there plans to provide a fully animated component for each sex scene, or will this be included only for some of the sex scenes? I'm asking because the first two sex scenes with Brenda and Amanda include a fully animated component, whereas the current last two sex scenes involving Sarah and Reina do not.
Thanks for asking. When I previously checked, it did not show new training. However, when I just checked, the training I was told that Moon needed was an option. Perhaps I had checked too soon afterwards (needed to rest)? Whatever the case, that led to a new series of events, and I realized I had not engaged in other content due to not having raised Submissiveness or gone on a date with some characters enough. Even in its current state, this game has a lot of content, to where I have been pleasantly surprised. Loving it!
Thanks for responding. To clarify about Moon, however, she currently is stuck on spanking 2/10 for me, and when I try to do the 2nd spanking, it says that she first must complete a certain training, which I believe I already did. So that's why I'm wondering if this is a bug, or if maybe I did something in the wrong order, as I completed all of the potential trainings for Moon many in-game days ago.
By the way though, I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but I was unable to continue spanking Moon in the bar beyond a certain point. When I would try to continue, it would say that she needed some training that I think she already had been given. Maybe this was supposed to be done in a different order than what I did it (e.g., completed her training too early)? Also, I thus far have been unable to unlock the sex scene with Autumn in the cafe or invite Autumn to sleep in my bed, although I do not know if this is possible to do yet.
Wow, I'm impressed and decided to donate. This is one of the hottest and funnest AVNs I have ever played. Though I have enjoyed many aspects of it, my favorite aspect is the elven struggle storyline in general (centering on Lin and others), and I'd love to see more action involving Sylvia. However, the overall story is quite diverse, interesting, and humorous, making for an altogether deep and entertaining game that packs a lot of bang for one's buck. I usually like more sound effects to accompany sex scenes in AVNs, but the scenes in Harem Hotel are so varied and visually/verbally arousing that in this case I do not mind. I look forward to future updates and plan to donate more as I am able.
I made a donation because this game has potential, and I wanted to view the fullest version so far. My main recommendation would be to work in more sound effects to some of the sex scenes, such as bodily sounds and/or voice effects (possibly including moans). I will periodically check for updates and will consider donating more in the future.
I bought the game here and purchased Season 1 on Steam and plan to purchase Season 2 on Steam when it becomes available. I tend to favor science fiction, and I find the story interesting and humorous. In addition, there are a number of hot sex scenes, though the rooftop scene with Emily is my favorite so far. One strength of the sex scenes besides the pleasing animations is that they include bodily sounds (bodies slapping together) as well as moans from the female characters.
The sex scenes with Sky, Aine, Gwen, and Moon are my favorites so far, but I'm hoping to see some with Lily and Klara. Visuals for the sex scenes are excellent, including the movements and panning the "camera" between different angles. The only recommendation I would make is to consider adding bodily sounds or moans to the sex scenes, as this would enhance the experience, though the scenes are still great without it. Donation made.
The sex scenes with Maat, Penelope, Nova, and Nancy are very hot, though the elevator scene with Nancy currently stands out as my favorite. It's a good example of what sets the sex scenes in games like Eternum apart from much of the competition: Excellent visuals, including the movements; sexy sound effects (bodily sounds); great soundtrack selection; and a good storyline to go along with it. Most adult VN games are lacking one or more of the listed elements and thus fall short. I have enjoyed it so much that I made a second small donation. Though hoping for more with Nancy in particular, looking forward to seeing more with Annie, Luna, and Calypso.
