I've played some crappy VNs, trust me, and Blue Rose is not one of them. It isn't anything groundbreaking or mind-blowing, but it's definitely not bad. I enjoyed it rather well. More character development could've made it better, but I did like the characters, and I did feel something when things went bad\/good for them. If a story can elicit emotion, then it has succeeded in one way, at least. The romantic parts of the story also caused some mild butterfly-in-the-stomach feelings; thus, it certainly was not a waste of time as a romance genre VN. I do think that Erin's path wasn't written as well as it could've been. To confirm this, yes, Erin is a ROMANTIC option. It is heavily implied that Erin has romantic feelings for the protagonist, and vice versa. However, unlike with the male romance options, physical affection is held back between Lena (the protagonist) and Erin. They hug in a CG image; that's it. If you're going to put in a controversial romance option in a story, do not hold back. Go all out! There should've been just as much affection shown and tender words spoken between those two as there was with the male romance options. Note: Aran's story route is not romantic. There were some typos and grammatical errors, but nothing major. There was also at least one instance of an incorrect name tag. Overall, I thought it was a decent romance VN. It could've been better, I admit, but I definitely don't think it deserves so many negative reviews.. Well, Blue Rose is one of the oldest otome visual novels here around Steam, and the only commercial game hailing from the small visual novel developer, White Cat. Before venturing out to have my own experience about this game, I've heard tons of good and bad about Blue Rose: from its intriguing medieval fantasy setting, to crippling narrative and grammar mistakes in text descriptions. Let's take a closer look, and add a new comment to the pile of mixed reviews for this game.Our story centers on the stubborn, resilient and romantically clueless Knight of the Blue Rose: Lena. Being the only female knight of the order - also the only one without a noble lineage and a family crest, she has always been kind of an outcast in the order, even though she has always completely believed in the ideals of the Blue Rose. She is the perfect soldier who would serve indefinitely and without questions - with a memorized sense of honor. Her self-justified creed is soon to be put to test when she'll face utter failure in a mission up in the mountains with the appearance of a dragon!As our story starts, Lena is assigned to escort a diplomatic convoy for the protection of an important ambassador - Lady Adale - whose lack of safe return would spell catastrophy for both nations already on the verge of war. As Lena ends up barely alive - and her party completely lost - after her encounter with the legendary beast, she is rescued by the inhabitants of a small, isolated town high up in the mountains. While discovering the mystery of this region and trying to come into terms that her sense of what is right and wrong could not be utterly reliable, she'll also encounter opportunity for romance...This should be all in terms of story here, right? Okay then, now I can tell you what I actually think about the story: it kinda sucks. I mean, one would think a story about an order of knights, a dragon, a spirit, a political plot to fuel war between countries and an ethical analysis of war would be interesting no matter what, right? You are dead wrong. Even with all these intriguing elements, developers managed to present a boring story. My issue with the game comes in two parts: one with the story and setting foundation, and the other with the narrative itself. Considering these two are the baseline of any successful visual novel - aside some pretty art, which is not mandatory if you ask me - those mistakes cannot be forgiven.Within the storyline, characters themselves are not elaborately actualized. They are superficial with limited interactions and reaction, stuffed into painful and shallow stereotypes. Their personalities are failed to be presented successfully. They lack monologues, choices, aspirations, personal attachments and decent backstory. Sure, they all do have their superficial sob stories that would make them ending up hiding in the mountains, and they all do venture out to pull dramatic and sacrificial action sequences when the time calls, but you feel nothing about them reading the suffocating text about their experiences when it finally arrives.Aside uninteresting characters, storyline itself is very limited with only the hint of an interesting setting. We are given a mountain with a spirit, some mysterious energy which can be used by knights, some priestesses - to what or whom, I have no idea - and a vague idea of witches. Oh, and there is a war going on. All those anecdotes do not make up a whole medieval fantasy setting. This is plain bad writing. Also, there is no mention for the reason of the said war, neither any explanation for the origin of any mystery. It is just a consistency of one bad narrative of combat after another, with demagogies scattered around. It is not interesting at all.All these problems could maybe overlooked considering this is a glorified first trial at a commercial visual novel, but the text itself isn't readable due to countless grammatical, punctuation and narrative errors anyhow. Should I mention spelling mistakes, or wrong tense conjugations all around? It shouldn't be that hard to use spellcheck when you write anything - much or less the text narrative of a whole game! It is a special kind of hell to go through combat descriptions with the cringe worthy narrative.The art is alright - a bit awkward in some CGs - and the music is pleasant. The world would be a fine baseline for a decent story but... at the end, it just doesn't deliver. If it's in a heavy sale - like %80 or so - or you get the game in a bundle, sure, try. It's not worth the full price though, not even remotely.Please also check out Lady Storyteller's Curator page here - follow for regular updates on reviews for other games!. After reading the other reviews I was a little skepticle about buying this game . But it was on sale so I thought what the hell . I didn't expect much , but I enjoyed the game overall . The art was nice and the soundtrack was fitting , and the story was intriguing enough that I finished one play through in one sitting . I liked the main protaganist , even though she was inept at some things ( like most humans ) and she actually seemed to grow as a person through the game . The other major characters were also likeable ( besides the guy who saves you because he was annoying AF and I don't even care what his name is ) There were a few plot holes , but they didn't really seem to bother me during game play .If you like fantasy , you may want to check this game out .. This is a good game, But.....DON'T BUY THIS FOR THE YURI ROUTE ALONE, Like I did!If you are a yuri lover like me, You will be SEVERELY disappointed in the Girl x Girl route (aka Lena x Erin).This game was clearly intended to be focused on the males! Erin's route was by far the WEAKEST when it comes to romance out of all the 5 routes in the game.THEY NEVER SHARE NOT EVEN ONE KISS! Her route's story was interesting, that's no lie. BUT there was BARELY any romance between Lena and Erin.Everything "romantic" Lena & Erin has done in the game is stuff best friends do ALL THE TIME! HUGGING IS NOT\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665I N G ROMANTIC OR SCREAMS WITH "I LOVE YOU!"I'm sorry but this angers me! If you wanna add a yuri route, Don't HALF A S S IT, DO IT RIGHT!Don't make a route that leaves players thinking "Wait, that's it? A \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665I N G HUG?!"This was a rant wasn't it?Anyways, I did enjoy Gavin's route. Unlike Erin's, in his route, you can actually tell Gavin & Lena became a couple. That's because THEY ACTUALLY KISSED AND HAD REAL ROMANTIC MOMENTS TOGETHER!I'm done. The game is interesting when you buy it for the right reasons, Don't be a fool like me!If you're into Boy x Girl Visual Novels with action fight scenes with dragons, Then you will enjoy this!If you're a 100% Yuri lover, SKIP THIS GAME! Unless you're really curious to see the disappointing the Girl x Girl route is.. A most interesting little visual novella, Blue Rose explores themes of duty and love. You play as Lena, a Templar of the Blue Rose, which is basically an order of paladins. Sent to guard a VIP with a group of other Templars, they are ambushed by a dragon and Lena is badly injured. When she comes to, she finds herself in a secluded village. There she finds four men and one woman who... interest her. Through your choices you can win the heart of the one of your dreams (though one is only unlocked after finishing one good end), and solve the mystery of the town.A bit fun and an interesting concept.. Average visual novel. There was a lot of interaction between the characters (which I liked a lot), but I couldn\u2019t\u2026 Well, get attached to them. I don\u2019t know why. But I liked the idea to visit certain areas of the map to meet up with the characters. The art style is decent. It\u2019s not amazing, but it has a certain charm. BG was ok, BGM was fine too. I just feel that this game is quite expensive for what is offering, so I suggest you to get it on a bundle or a good sale.5\/10. Overall, I do recommend this VN. But like I said, only if you can get it on a bundle or a good sale. Otherwise, it\u2019s quite expensive for a short story. Oh, and I also enjoyed the mini stories, they were nice.
