Alright y'all get ready for some more divine speaker propaganda because I'm so normal about these characters

My man Leos, actual love of my life. Has tried to kill me, found it hot. There are multiple instances in gameplay where Leos pushes Raen against something to threaten him and Raen is just like "do it harder"

Like the above moment when Raen checks on a sleeping Leos and Leos throws Raen to the ground and holds a knife to him. They proceed to just sleep next to each other the rest of the night like Leos didn't just threaten him. This is the first night they met btw.

Or the next moment when Leos is trying to tell Raen off about constantly almost getting himself killed and Raen only has kissing on the brain

Leos, this absolute drama queen, is a sassy sassy assassin man who is done with literally everyone

But he's also soft and is not at all honest with his feelings. Look at that blush. Look at it.

He can dance

He can play an instrument

He can absolutely obliterate you

Oh and don't forget his tragic backstory that you unlock on his romance playthrough.

Traumatized, dagger wielding assassin who is head over heels for you and will kill someone for looking at you funny. What more do you need?

Why is killing a person wrong?

This is a question that leaves most to debate but here in the game, it answers. During part of the game, the cast is tasked with finding out the murders that often occur in the town by a mansion owner. Though the murder mystery premise may seem simple on the surface it goes a lot more deeper than that. 

This game is demonstrated by introducing this part in the common route that calls back to the themes of the game.

So to answer Why is the act of murder wrong? It limits the truth about the person you killed. The act of murder removes the right of someone to think to be alive and make decisions when you kill someone you rob them of the ability to decide for themselves you never gave them a chance you took that away from them. It removes the person's own autonomy entirely by taking that right away from them It removes the ability to allow others to decide one's fate. 

I don’t know if the writers had any attention to add this but that is an important detail to mention.

ROUND 3 MATCH 17

Fawn propaganda:

“The golden retriever boyfriend you've been searching for your whole life. An anxious bean who deals with his fear of people and crowds to support the player character in his quest to figure out what the hell is going on”

"So my adorable boy ran away when he was just little and has been living with his animal friends ever since. He's convinced he can speak to animals but also they don't always respond to what he's saying and his theory to explain this away is "they're in a rebellious phase" like an absolute dork. Everything he owns is things that people have lost down the river. He loves his collection.

The first night (might have been the second) he meets Raen (PC), he sees how hard Raen has had it and decides to show him that even if there are scary and bad things in the world, there is also beauty

Like the true golden retriever he is, he immediately imprints on Raen and is determined to help him in his journey. Even if that means that Fawn has to go back into civilization and face his fear of people. He's so scared to the point of anxiety attacks but he's strong with Raen by his side

Also my boy can sing. So well in fact that it gets them a free room at the inn for the night (thank God because forest boy and two cult survivors definitely don't have any money).

Also did I mention that he can cut a B if they're threatening Raen? This golden retriever has some hidden claws.

In conclusion, soft boy is soft, your honor, and you should vote for him"

Rafael propaganda:

“Rafael is the blacksmith and this dude really needs some rare ore so he can craft a legendary weapon. What an extreme nerd. He dislikes mushrooms, just like me. But he hates eggs, so we can never be together.”

Words of Wisdom in the Divine Speaker Light Novel. I really like how English Dating Sim games are so much more than pr0n without plot. They not only feature an actual narrative but also make sure to talk about the human condition and society. Beyond romance, too.

The Divine Speaker

The Divine Speaker is a BL visual novel set in a fantasy world in which we follow Raen, a young orphan who is about to discover the truth about the world around him, in the company of 3 men who will soon become his friends (and maybe more xp) and help him on his journey.

To be honest, I launched this VN without expecting much, just to pass the time. In the end, I found myself quickly becoming involved in the story and genuinely enjoying its characters, I'm even almost sad to leave them now that I've finished the game entirely ;v; It therefore remains a good surprise overall even if it remains only rather banal overall, with its strengths and weaknesses.

❤ The characters are all super endearing and this even more thanks to the work of the dubbing actors whom I warmly salute because really, they bring a real freshness to their roles and also a lot of humor (especially Jonah Scott and his perfect cynical tone ;D). Kudos to them! ❤ The art direction is very pretty, whether in the varied scenery or the charming chara-design, or in the illustrations, some of which are truly magnificent. ❤ For such a little indie game, I think the music is really good, with several pretty themes that are easy to remember.

+/- The game offers us 3 very different love interests in their interactions with Raen so each player can find their own personal tastes and their favorite route (humhumFawnobviouslyhumhum). There are even "hidden" routes with the secondary protagonists. However, I found them uneven in terms of chemistry and progression; some felt too rushed and underdeveloped. This is all the more apparent as the LIs' routes follow a similar pattern, the only difference being the scenes about their past and the few intimate scenes with Raen. As a result, once one route has been completed, the others will seem rather repetitive and therefore less impactful. +/- The scenario quickly grabs your attention and its universe is interesting enough on the whole, but everything is quite predictable and certain points of the story are resolved a little too easily for my taste.

✖ Although I said earlier that all the characters were endearing, I find Raen, our main protagonist, to be sweet as can be but far too bland compared to the rest of the group. He's definitely evolving, but he has much less depth than his companions, which unfortunately makes him a rather forgettable character on an individual level (because yes, as a couple he's still cute :p). ✖ Some of the transition visual effects look really cheap and unnecessary (like the old Windows Movie Maker effects from the 2000s lol). ✖ This is completely personal, but I think it's a shame that once Raen confesses his love to each of the LIs, the remaining illustrations become nothing more than sex scenes XD I've got nothing against that haha, but I was still pretty frustrated not to have any more SFW illustrations to at least conclude the routes in a soft way……but I've always been more fluff than smut, that must be why x)

The game has a good lifespan (18 hours for me) and I managed to get attached to the characters and their trials and tribulations right to the end, despite the fact that this visual novel is only more or less decent ; is it the power of this Divine Speaker I wonder….
