Final thoughts on Maggot Baits aka I'm going to tell you what you already gleamed from the title:
I've completed all the endings and have all but 1 CG (it's a variant of a torture scene and I'm not going back in to figure out how to get it). On a structural level, Maggot Baits is very simple. Your first playthrough has only one branching path (be a retard and get the bad ending, don't be a retard and get ending 1). After ending 1 the game gives you more branching paths at various points which change events resulting in ending 2 (which is barely any different). The latter half of the VN steers hard into maximum edgelord territory. Earlier parts of it are at least silly enough to poke fun at, but it became difficult to do that as the plot progressed. Guro scenes ramp up hard later on and focus on the main girls. It gets bad enough that I cannot recommend the title if that is in any way a breaking point for people. In comparison, the guro in Euphoria is a failure state which I avoided problem free. The main character starts the game as an almost hilarious stereotype of the chuuni protagonist. By the end he so fervently resists character develop that he ruins one of the few potentially great vanilla scenes (pshhh, nothing personnel, girl. You're a weapon that I can discard at any time). I'm paraphrasing but he really does roll out lines like that to the closest thing this game has to waifu material. Later on in ending 2 he opens up emotionally twice. That is a hell of a lot of reading to get to that point though. In both ending he goes full Cold Steel, complete with a darkness aura in one ending and becoming a tentacle monster in another. The main villian is a smug loli which is fantastic potential for a scene where you properly discipline her. Instead the MC abandons all morals and decides to brutally rape, beat, and strangle her. Luckily he dies in both endings as he fucking deserves (If you read this far you don't care about spoilers).
If you thought this game had waifu potential, abandon all hope. Most of the girls in this are pure trash, some are average, one is obviously favored by the plot and writers. Personality wise I liked the two villian witches, the gyaru and the muscle girl. They were both open sluts but at least had something resembling well defined character. The ox girl had potential, but she has so little screen time her character is wasted. The dog ear girl, the emotionless one, is the obvious favorite. As her animal association would imply, she's loyal to a fault to the MC. Ultimately she's the strongest character mentally because she is never truly broken by all the torture unlike the other girls. She'd be ok waifubait, but then they did a flashback to her before becoming a witch and had a brutal scene where, you guessed it, she gets horribly raped and mutilated. Upon becoming a witch she loses her memories and is re-virgined but I don't count that. Used goods are used goods. Finally I want to talk about the dragonfly bitch. This ties for me with the dog ear girl flashback rape in being the worst thing in the game. This universe operates by type moon standards. Want more magical power? Become a cock hungry whore. Makes sense for a porn game. So the MC lives with the dog ear girl, ox girl, dragonfly girl, and a normal humal lady (who gets raped and murdered like everyone else). You'd think they would go with a harem subplot, this being a chuunibyou porn game. NOPE! The MC only ever fuggs the dog girl and then gets his rape and murder spree on in the endings. Ox girl and the good loli get captured, raped, and tortured. Dragonfly girl decides to leave their base, go out in the streets and agrees to be gangbanged by random faceless hobos, niggers included. Worst girl ever.
tldr: Maggot Baits has potential and can be fun at the start, but devolves into something only the most hardcore fetish lover could enjoy. Either go in with very reserved expectation or don't bother.
He looks like every anime attempt at making a respectable looking nigger. Nobody ever gets blacked by him at least. He was one of the only fun things about the story because he went to Japan to fight people and the VA would go crazy shouting HAAAAAALLELUJAAAAAAAAAAH. Simple little things like that would go a long way towards making the title more fun to read.
