As far as I know, this is the only Key game that scored a sub-80 score in Erogamescape. Even then, anything above 75 is supposedly pretty good already in that chart. I guess they put too much hype in the game (this is Key, what do you expect?) and when LB! turned out not to meet expectation, the backlash happened even if it's actually a decent game.
I don't think LB! is radically different than previous Key games either. The execution may be different but it's still the same-old "Mono no Aware" and melodrama. As far as diversity is concerned, Nitro+ and Type-Moon have Key beat in this aspect.
