[h1]作者是ftm。[/h1] Most of the stat checks happen in the first two chapters, which means it is really hard to change the story later on. [h1]Your early choices pretty much lock in your whole path. [/h1] Although the whole story tries to break traditional epic stories and add female character for players, the overall story still sticks to a male-centered narrative. Characters like Circe and Polyxena still fall into the usual roles like mysterious witch or seductive girl. They feel more like decorations than real people with their own paths. Even though I can choose to play as a woman, the whole story still follow the usual male hero's adventure. [h1]I cannot really connect with it bcs it still feels like a man's story.[/h1] [h1]Meanwhile, There are also toooooooo many conversations about sexual relationships.[/h1] It gets boring when the dialogue keeps going on and on about love, jealousy, and different women, which makes me feel like I am reading a soap opera.

About This Game
Fight the sea god's wrath to reclaim your throne, and free yourself from the ghosts of war. Will you live forever as a hero, a sovereign, or as a god?
An Odyssey: Echoes of War is an interactive retelling of Homer's The Odyssey by Natalia Theodoridou, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—250,000 words, without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
The war is over—Troy has fallen. After ten long years, you, the crown sovereign of Ithaca, have set your sails for home. But Poseidon, god of the sea, has cursed your journey, and now, many trials stand between you and the loving embrace of your spouse and son: Polyphemus the Cyclops, Scylla and Charybdis, the Sirens, the Land of the Lotus-Eaters…you and your companions will even journey to the land of the dead.
And what about the memories that haunt you: the ghosts of those that you slew on the fields of battle? Do you even want to return to your spouse and the burdens of rulership? What if you find love or peace somewhere along the way? Not all homes look the same. And what songs will the poets sing of you—will they hail you as a hero?...Or a murderer?
They say you can’t go home again...
