I've rephrased the choices as to prevent spoilers, but this should definitely not confuse the choice required.
This game requires five playthroughs to get all the achievements, but thankfully, there is chapter select, so as long as you do the first playthrough correctly, you won't have to restart the game from the very beginning. Takeru encounters and conquers insurmountable odds while his entire world is turned upside down around him. This is a tale of a love so deep it breaks all barriers about courage in the face of adversity and overcoming hardships. Muv-Luv Alternative continues the story of Shirogane Takeru after the events of the original Muv-Luv. This is the alternative ending unable to be told before:Ī very great, a very tiny, a very precious. That poor bastard.A destiny tossed about, in an insane world-Ī flame of life blazing forth, in a dying world.
MUV LUV BETA TIME TRAVEL SERIES
I think it says something for the Muv Luv series that no matter how you feel about Takeru initially, by the end you will be saluting him, and you will mean it.
You will probably weep and cheer simultaneously. That's Muv Luv in a nutshell?a game that initially appears to be a fun and fantastical romantic comedy, but turns out to be a tribute to the power of courage, responsibility and sacrifice in the face of all-consuming despair. Your heart is broken, over and over again. He grows up, and takes responsibility for his actions. Once you realize this, Takeru realizes it too. That is when you realize that no matter what you do, you will never be able to go back. You will long for the days of lunch battles and tomfoolery, when the main character's biggest problem was which girl he wanted to marry. But there will be a moment in Muv Luv Alternative, Muv Luv's very necessary sequel, when you will realize that you want to go back to those earlier times when life was simple for Takeru and his friends. Fight scenes were too quick and you didnt really have any time to warm up to Yuis friends to get a sense of her despair other than the gorey scenes. You will rage in anger against the potty jokes and episodic storytelling and occasionally heavy-handed drama. Now Earth is fighting a losing war against them who they now called the 'BETA'. It will make you cry out for the good stuff. I didnt look into it at all as I thought it would be one of those games that wouldnt get localized in English. Muv Luv will make you curse the silly moments of comedy. And thats the last time I heard any significant news/rumors about Muv-Luv. But as an experience, without the grace of its successor, Muv Luv suffers hugely. Not to mention that Muv Luv is graced with some of the best visuals (despite the deliberately generic character designs) in the visual novel business. Unlimited also pulls the neat trick of taking your typical protagonist of an anime rom-com (Takeru, in this case), totally pulling the rug out from under him and forcing him to either change or die.
The first game consists of roughly six hours of harem hijinks (Extra) and then another six or eight hours or so of something very different but still not quite excellent (Unlimited.) Granted, Extra can be remarkably entertaining considering the fact that it's almost totally fluff, and Unlimited has some great moments interspersed with the cliche. The Muv Luv games win the award for Worst Introductory Visual Novel for a novice of the genre.
