not much to comment in terms of technical side i guess its... a visual novel... the OST is probably the strongest part but even that has its pitfalls like. omg if i never hear march of time.mp3, cicio.mp3 and hex.mp3 for another hundred or even thousand years it will still be too fucking soon

i guess i expected more from it?
early chapters are relatively fun gothic horror-esque romps and i think the classic true final route was the strongest part after all that setup, but in the end something about it just didn't click with me

the experiment with the form in terms of backlog vs dialogue in chapter 4 was really good though

all in all a cool story about love and humanity and acceptance, but at the same time, idk how much i'd care if the big reveal had nt happened to draw me in

which also makes me feel kind of bad because i want to care about all kind of stories, and not only those i feel myself reflected in but... well...

i think without it i would have dropped it around chapter 3 because i was bored F. at some point it was just sunk cost fallacy keeping me going which is kind of sad

but i'm glad i stuck out because the final arc is quite good! and the message of the story as well as the characters were excellent

i guess i have some minor gripes with the art and female characters' treatment but eh
