Becoming Reviews

https://youtu.be/y7McUYFNsas So you've read the description and now you're looking at me for some guidance. Check out my video of the game posted above to see some of the gameplay and hear my thoughts. Becoming is a visual novel with choices to be made. The music, backgrounds, characters and other aspects are quite appealing; though I find some of the text to be oddly worded causing me to have to reread a section or sentence multiple times to get the meaning. I am really looking forward to streaming the conclusion of the game. If you are in to visual novels, reading, making choices and being a prick to everyone around you; then you have to get this game. Update: I have finished this game multiple times with different endings and each time it has been a pure joy to play. I look forward to whatever this creator has to put forth next and will be eagerly awaiting it.

Bad quality VN boring story too few nude scenes and very short for progression.

Good try for a visual and sound novel, but I find the english translation to be too literal that it is extremely hard to understand at times.

This game had/has so much potential. It would be great if it could be polished a little more, reworking parts of the story and filling in a few gaps. What I will say is for 2 whole bucks ($2 for those who can't manage to understand that last part) it's not really a bad start of a game. I look at it as a paid demo for a game that, from what I have managed to pick-up from searching about, will never be completed, and that is kind of sad. Bonus: I'll help you out here. If you're getting this for nudity, well yeah, don't bother. There's like one shot that I remember and it's above the waist only. I will say unfortunately, some of the choices are non-choices and just lack any sense to them and it ruins the flow of the game. The example I give below in the spoiler tag is an example of this, and it does give away a major part of the game so do not read it unless you are an adult and don’t really give a flying f..k about spoilers. Don’t be a whiny little b...h if you read it and spoil it for yourself. [spoiler] Also come on really, your character likes the lead female you get stabbed because they’re transgender, your character doesn't like the lead female, the person who stabs you gets with them instead, although they stab you for liking the transgender character. WTF!!! That makes absolutely 100% no sense at all. Bonus: The female leads character model is fantastic… [/spoiler]

I like novels with historical story lines. When I saw this I thought it was going to be something ENTIRELY different. This game is nothing like what it's portrayed to be. First, it isn't even a boy-meet-girl story. It's a boy-meets-former-boy-who's-now-a-girl hot mess of a story line. IF it's not your thing, you should know there's a LOT of graphic discussion of... how endowed the homeless person is and how well (s)he can eat a banana. Also, both characters are unappealing. The protagonist is merely OK (the classic "sold his soul to the company" type that has regrets). He's on the rebound after only a week. A week. He has questionable friends: He continues to be friends with a restaurant owner/chef who could be arrested for assault and battery due to a restaurant dish that he served him when they first met (yuck). This will appeal to urine fetishists, I guess. And the homeless transgender love interest is rude and also smells strongly of stale urine (back to the urine fetish). I gave up after 30 minutes in but, wow. That's still 30 minutes of my life that I can't get back.
