Absolute Hypnosis in DxD

Editorial Meh

Absolute Hypnosis in DxD is a fan game based on the High School DxD universe with a focus on corruption mechanics and character progression. The community's core complaint is overwhelming: the game's progression system is opaque and frustrating. Events trigger at specific, undocumented locations and times, with vague "tips" that offer no real guidance; players report spending hours hopping between map locations hoping to stumble into the next scene. The Ravel character route is cited repeatedly as the worst offender. Beyond navigation, there is a genuine bug affecting Ravel's gym events—players report being sent to wrong rooms on specific days, potentially soft-locking progression. Content-wise, only two main characters (Asia and Xenovia) are fully implemented; the game is early-access with limited scope. A few players enjoy the models and character designs, and some praise it highly, but most feedback focuses on tedious, broken progression rather than the creative work itself. The developer is active but defensive, and community support has migrated to Discord, leaving the main forum scattered and unhelpful.
