    The narrators are annoying and quippy. I cannot stand the dialogue. Maybe visual novels just aren’t for me.

      This is definitely not your traditional visual novel, it is meta af and I also felt this even though I love visual novels. I still quite like the concept of the game, even if I’m quite often bouncing off the nature of the way it’s presented and the way it doesn’t always add up to more than the sum of its parts.

    Hated this, tbh. None of the choices matter and it resolves into some pseudo-philosophical BS about self. People should read up on actual philosophy instead of wasting honestly impressive audiovisual work on pretentious, overly-verbose shit that doesn't say anything or knows what it wants to be. Calls itself a horror game, there's nothing scary or 'lovecraftian' about it and it's not a game, it's a visual novel.

    But whatever, you can never talk about this shit since people who are into pseudo-intellectual tripe will just say you 'didn't get it'.

      lmfao this comment makes you sound way more pretentious and pseudo-intellectual than any of the people you're complaining about.
      as a philosophy major and philosopher, this game isn't even "philosophical" as much as it's just dealing with relevant and relatable real life interpersonal issues through pure abstraction, the same as 95% of all postmodernist media. the fact that you didn't even seem to get that doesn't surprise me though lol

    looks like there will be a major update added to the game in 2024 for anyone who's fine with waiting

    Nah, nalima has a point though. Lots of talent and great audiovisual ideas wasted in typical (at this point in time) self-aware metacommentary where almost every idea the game wants to convey is directly spelled out.
