Finished my first playthrough of Volcano Princess.
I decided pretty early on that I wanted my daughter to be a famous heroic knight, so while I had the option for a royal ending of some kind I chose something a bit more modest for her.
I think I more or less locked her into a romance with Lebsa before I caught on to how creepy she as. More importantly it was before I spoiled myself (thanks TV Tropes addiction) that Lebsa was the old hero Absel in the body of your original daughter from the start of the game who they pulled a Witch From Mercury twist on, which is all sorts of wrong in terms of a relationship. Fortunately this appears to have been updated out of the game for a much vaguer status of who exactly Lebsa is. Though I do feel real synced with the player character still expressing concern about her.
Having watched the original true ending its nice that your daughter can now get an actual tomboy GF but it's a shame the full context of events that are still in the story is no longer explained in the game, and basically requires you to watch the cut content to understand everything.
Overall a very fun time as my first parenting sim. I almost refunded it because of the atrocious translations at the start, but it gets much better in the main game. Very weird that they didn't give the prologue the same treatment with how important first impressions are.
Next playthrough I intend on making her even more social and pairing her up with the Princess.
