Cute Knight Deluxe, the unholy spawn of Dungeon Master and the Princess Maker series, now has a sequel in <b><a href="http://www.hanakogames.com/ckk.shtml" target="blank">Cute Knight Kingdom</a></b>. Here's the details according to papillon from Hanako Games:
<br>
<blockquote>Differences from the first game:
<br>
You can now walk around jRPG style and talk to characters (with helpful flags for new content) instead of being stuck on one screen.
<br>
No more prostitution or incest. But there is same-sex romance. And different-sex romance. And different-species romance.
<br>
The concept of 'sin' in an RPG - where most people want to go around killing stuff - is explored in more detail.
<br>
All magical spells must now be learned from experience, so you have to go around and Collect Them All.
<br>
Potions are replaced by food and a cooking system to go with the crafting system, so there are a LOT of recipes to discover.
<br>
Multiple dungeons, each with a 'boss' encounter.
<br>
And, of course, improved graphics and sound, including a lot of hand-painted watercolors and hammered dulcimer.</blockquote>
<br>
There's a <a href="http://www.hanakogames.com/demos/CuteKnightKingdomDemo.exe" target="blank">demo</a>, but I refuse to touch it until <a href="http://www.hanakogames.com/city_talking.jpg" target="blank">these horrifying things</a> stop staring at me.
<br>
<br>
As to the original game, here's a revealing quote from <a href="http://www.rpgcodex.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=157742#157742" target="blank">Saint</a>:
<br>
<blockquote>I don't know, there's something about a CRPG where you're forced to play a woman and there's skills for cooking and cleaning that appeals to me. </blockquote>

But this isn't cute - it's utterly ugly.

As someone who doesn't really mind Anime-ish designs, this is terrible.

I was kind of intrigued by the first one - not enough to play it, mind you, but it looked kinda interesting.

This looks horrifying. WTF is with their eyes?

Why is there so much negativity around this? I was under the impression that games like the Princess Maker series were Codex-approved.
