Hokay, I've finally gotten around to running Ch. 6 (there are so many good games out there right now). If I had to sum up this chapter in one word, it would be...ponderous.
The whole elongated set up/prelude to reopening the restaurant was torturous. It could easily have been shortened by half. The net effect (for me) was to make me even more aware of the recycled poses. It felt just a little creepy.
There were few dialog choices in this installment, it was almost entirely textual. It felt like a really long conversation, rather than an advancing plot.
As for the last scene, well...
I've kinda been on an enjoyed/annoyed journey with this game. I wonder if this is something I should just wait until it is a completed novel.
This installment left me a little underwhelmed, both from a character development and a story development aspect. I thought Ch. 5 did much more on both fronts.
I still think the idea and delivery are worthy of continued interest, I'm just not sure the installment method is working as well for me.
