I guess that applies, but for the most part I never wanted something deep, nor anything complex; just something engaging and captivating. You do have a point though; the dating sim aspect and feel was definitely part of its charm, and I guess I'm just too jaded to appreciate it for the most part (time to go through dating sim bootcamp with TokiMemo! SIR YES SIR!).
It's just that, considering this was the second title, I as hoping for them to at least take the storytelling in a different direction instead of just recycling LxC1's feel only with names and traits of the heroines replaced. Not even overtly wishing for it, just slightly hoping.
I had a lot of fun with it, though some of the fun I had were for the
wrong reasons.
