The elf’s ears are too long. That’s what I keep thinking while I’m clicking through dialogue trees in some dusty tavern. Not a real complaint, just a thing that sticks in my brain like a splinter. The Beyond throws you into this sandbox kingdom where your job is basically to fuck your way through the population, and the first thing I do is get distracted by character proportions. Typical.
Combat is there too, I guess. Point and click stuff, nothing that’ll make you sweat. But who cares about goblin stabbing when the real grind is figuring out which milf needs a “special delivery” or whatever. There’s this one scene early on, a titfuck with a barmaid who has tits bigger than my entire head, and the animation loops in this hypnotic way. I sat there watching it cycle three times before realizing I hadn’t blinked. The game’s deliberately unpolished, they say. Yeah, no shit. Some backgrounds look like they were sketched on a napkin. But then a creampie scene will have this oddly satisfying weight to it, the way the sprite lingers, and you forget about the jank for a second.
Wish there was more voyeurism built into the sandbox. Like, let me peek through keyholes without it being a whole scripted event. The futa content is optional, which is fine, but the toggle feels buried in a menu that I only found because I was looking for a volume slider that doesn’t exist. Monster fucking shows up later, and it’s exactly as messy as you’d hope. Anal scenes are generous, maybe too generous, if you’re trying to roleplay an inexperienced elf. He learns fast, I suppose. The incest stuff is there, woven into the main questline with a stepmom character who has zero subtlety. She practically has a neon sign. I kept getting distracted by a side quest involving a baker. Her ass. Good lord. The masturbation animations are a nice touch when you’re stuck grinding for gold, which happens more than I’d like. The economy in this kingdom makes no sense. A health potion costs as much as a night at the brothel. Priorities, I guess.
