Well........this is not first time I complained about SLBP. I just thought, if I wanna talk about it, then I should have a clear picture of it.

SLBP Nobunaga's Act 2 route.

Nobunaga decided to destroy Hongan-ji and with it, the sign of Buddha. And his plan was claim himself something like a mortal god.

Well....a warlord is good, but a god?? I know, in Japan in that time it might not have been weird, but...in some way, this thing went too far.

The most disappointing thing is that, almost all the retainers nods in agreement. Only Mitsuhide retorted.

When Mitsuhide told that what Nobunaga was doing is utterly bad, Nobunaga losts his temper.....and slapped him.

I cannot believe how arrogant he was here.

Nobunaga went to the river bank and MC followed him....when they return, Mitsuhide left the castle. It was normal, considering how Nobunaga slapped him...but still, MC only thinks of making up their relationship?? Oh god, Nobunaga doesn't deserve a retainer like Mitsuhide.

I was really sad. But MC's resolved really made me angry. And the god thing is too much, even if people then were superstitious. We are modern players of the game and it's really annoying how Nobunaga intends to consider him a god.....really, really disgusting.

Again, MC's thought of taking Mitsuhide granted is another thing that annoyed me too. She was there in the war council, she saw in her own eyes that how Nobunaga slapped blood out of the man's mouth, and still, she intends to parsue Nobunaga???

Ikesen Nobunaga is best. At least, Ikesen Nobunaga did not claim himself god! 😭😭😭 And Nobunaga in Ikesen really cares his subordinates (Hideyoshi, Mitsuhide, Masamune, Ieyasu, Mitsunari, Keiji, Ranmaru... Also, our Mai), unlike SLBP.

Another fact. Ikesen Nobunaga has a clear goal and ambition, and Mai learns it very quickly in his route. His clear ambition is one of the reason Mai fell for him (me too). But in SLBP, MC is still in dark about his goal, despite it is Nobunaga's sequel.

The one thing I LOVE in Ikesen nobu that.....he cares for people. He took the burden of killing many alone. But he also has a good heart.

In Hideyoshi's route, when Hideyoshi was a robber and tried robbing off Nobunaga, Nobunaga defeats him and Hideyoshi begged to nobu to kill him. But Nobunaga did not kill. In their conversation, Nobunaga was harsh, but...when Hideyoshi told him that he has no master, then Nobunaga said, "And you have no master? Nonsense. You are your own master."

This dialogue touched my heart. Felt like my hubby Will (from ikevil).

When Mai and Hideyoshi had budding feelings, it was Nobunaga who pushed them to a relationship. Hideyoshi had a tendency to "give his life for Milord Nobunaga". But when Mai came in Hideyoshi's life, Nobunaga pushed him to realize that his life was not so unworthy to be waste. This is one other reason I love.

SLBP Nobunaga is really a brat. I don't know if anyone thought this about. But Ikesen Nobunaga is much more calm, collected, intelligent and better person than him.

Many say, SLBP is more historically accurate, and it may be, but....there are so many this type of characters, and the amount of romance is really low. I sometimes wonder how the MC and ML fell in love.

I started Princess in the Mirror app (another game from Voltage) and it had a royal court thing, similar to ikepri. But....the MC is so dumb there. She is even more naive than Emma. I am not badmouthing Emma (I love her) but, the MC in this game is....too dumb for a game. The story is somehow rushed...

I saw a post that in the new ikepri event, Emma was depicted as weak, but....believe me, this MC in the Princess in the mirror game is worse than that. I just cannot see her lead. Everything is done by her surroundings, and she is in danger in every chapter, and talks like, "Oh no, help me!" She even cannot retort against any bad comment, despite she is a princess in the country and has total authority and utmost power. Emma is lot, lot better than that.

Another thing...it also bothered me sometimes, but...it sometimes feel like the MCs in Voltage games are rendered "special", despite having that not good virtue. I will give example.

In SLBP, the cook MC (I am only playing the Radiance path) is put in a poison taster job. She goes to one of the lords' castle and everytime, her gender is revealed in some embarrassing or ridiculous way (believe me, that is my favourite part 😅). If it is an otome game, then why present MC as a guy? She could have been a maid in the castle from the first. Maybe they did it so the MC can catch the warlord's eye. But the thing that bothers me the most, she becomes a maid or cook when her identity is revealed. But there were so much women in the castle to serve the act of warming their lords' bed. It feels like, the warlord's never even felt like to pick a concubine or maid. Like he was waiting for MC to come in his castle in a magical way. And when MC comes, suddenly reveals her identity, and the warlords become fond of her and so on. It might also make sense if the MC was a maid and then she cought the lord's eye somehow, not going to the extent to disguise as a man.

SLBP MC is a cook there. But we don't see any of her actions that can stand her out of ordinary. What she only does is serving sweet bean soup, help her lord to change his dress and those maid things. She does not have any considerable presence in the whole story or battle, unlike Mai. Still, she is regarded as "special", making the days even more brighter...but bro, there were numerous maids there to do it for Nobunaga or Masamune or any other warlords! I just can not figure it out how SLBP MC is this special. It sometimes feel weird.

In Ikesen or ikepri, Mai or Emma is special from the beginning. Mai is a mysterious woman, saved Nobunaga out of no where from Honnoji. And Emma is belle, a pure hearted person. Kate is also especial if you read Victor's route. But SLBP of princess of mirror MC's are like aliens.

In Princess in the Mirror, same. The MC is a secretary and got throws in another world. She there is also like this—really, really naive. I was really surprised that she was not bothered a least amount when she got isekai'd in another world...something like ikevamp. And there she becomes a princess, but she is really dependant on other people there.

In Cybird games, we see strong and inspiring MCs (Like Mai, Emma, Yoshino or Kate). They are strong enough to level with their love interests. They can be support of them and help them. They are strong enough to act as their own.

If Voltage could improve their MC quality, their games could have been more better. I personally don't hate their games, but their MC and suitors are really traditional type.

I don't know if all Voltage games are like this. But still, I almost lost my faith over them 😭.

Voltage prioritizes number over quality. That's why there are so games, but some times it feels repetitive. Cybird is focused on quality because they need foreign community, and people world-wide seeks divergence. This is the reason Cybird games are less in number, but so much enjoyable that, you will remember it in a long run.

Well, I don't intend to hurt Voltage fans, but I really think, Voltage should do better in this kinda things.
