I liked this update, it was really hot. Something I felt was nice is that the drastic personality shift was temporary. I have recently played a "project", won't call it a game, that had a similar shift and it felt like it was meant to drive the story forward. Except in that instance it was something permanent, robing us of the experience of seeing the MC's personality evolve. It is nice to see that here that shift will serve the plot while not cutting through character development. I look forward to witnessing Ariana's reaction to herself.
I also look forward to the dev's other project more and more even if super hero stuff is only marginally interesting to me.
