Oh, thanks for pointing that out. It does help, but mostly just takes the edge off.
You still have to click on a character and then one of the pop-up interaction options, for example. And yes, even in other games you have to select options too, but there's a couple differences. For one, often the interaction *starts* on the click. Even if their image popping up is kind of just a veneer, it's a nice and useful one. More notably, using the common renpy choice system means the options are in standardized positions. And dropping a little in can get you hotkeys for em.
And then there's the fundamental issue of Just So. Many. Rooms. They're all amazingly detailed and had a lot of thought, care, and work poured into them... but that just makes it all the more of a shame when you start getting so annoyed by them you're just begging them to go away.
