Opponents are though, and you need to cleverly use your basic commands of defense/evade/parry to survive their attacks and beat them (or just grind until you overwhelmingly out-level them). The combat is turn based with an action gauge, based on the character agility. Gratuitous raping and killing will raise your Karma value though, and there might be somebody who sees fit to punish you it it becomes too high… You can also kill and rape all the NPC (…not in that order), though on the other hand you don’t *need* to do it and you can play all the game without seeing any gratuitous rape (you probably will need to gratuitously kill some, however). The above hints a bit to it, but this game is pretty Dark and Edgy. The different areas monsters’ strengths will push you in particular directions, though. After that the game truly begins and you can start exploring around the game is not linear nor does it give you much direction, besides telling you that there are five evil princesses who should probably be somehow dealt with. From there you awake in jail, from which you are rescued by Jeanne d’Arc… who promptly meets fiery demise in the hands of a big-ass dragon. And then bloodily explodes, setting the tone for the game. You start in a library with Alice, who guides you on the character creation.
The first Blacksouls is a RPG maker game with a Dark Souls inspired gameplay (disclaimer: I haven’t actually played Dark Souls so I can’t really judge the validity of the comparison) set in a grimdark world where twisted versions of fairy tales characters live and which is being terrorized by five demonic princesses from those tales. It is also available at DLsite (link 18+).
EGSīLACKSOULS II -Itoshiki Anata he Okuru Fushigi no Kuni- is its sequel, released on 2018. BLACKSOULS -Kuro no Douwa to Go-Mahime- is a HRPG (and a pure RPG, not a vn hybrid) released on 2017 by doujin circle Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe?, written and illustrated by Sushi Yuusha Toro.
