Editorial Has potential

Desire of Fate is a story-driven adult visual novel praised for its humor, character writing, and ambitious scope—players consistently call it well-written and recommend it enthusiastically. The renders are solid (HS2-based), and the branching narrative with karma/stat consequences gives real weight to choices. However, the game suffers from a severe credibility problem: after nearly two years of near-silence, the developer suddenly reappeared in mid-2024 claiming active development, yet no update has materialized since. The Discord server was deleted following an account hack; communication remains sporadic and vague. Community trust is fractured—some defend the slow pace as a hobby project, while others have abandoned their Patreon subscriptions, viewing it as abandoned. Recent reviews also flag writing inconsistency (spelling errors, tonal shifts, character inconsistency) in Chapter 3, and a few note the gallery mechanic is confusing (scenes only unlock at the end of each update, not when encountered).

Description

Desire of Fate is an adult visual novel set in a post-civil-war fantasy world. You play as a young man who was orphaned by conflict two decades ago and has spent your life in poverty—first in a remote village, then in the slums of a major city. As powerful factions compete to restore order and establish a new supreme leader, your fate unexpectedly thrusts you into the center of a dangerous political struggle. Against the odds, you may become the most powerful person in the nation. The game is narrative-driven, emphasizing character development and story alongside adult content. You build relationships with five main girls, each with their own stories and paths. Your choices determine the outcome: poor decisions lead to game-overs or bad endings. The game offers two modes—Normal, which excludes certain extreme fetishes, and Hardcore, which includes them. Content includes romance, corruption, harem dynamics, voyeurism, and various other adult themes, with optional elements like pregnancy and femdom. Despite its dark political setting and controversial content, the game is framed as taking place in an alternative universe and includes humor and character-focused storytelling. The developer notes emphasize that while the game contains graphic violence and adult themes, it is designed for mature audiences seeking a story-rich experience with choice-based gameplay.
