The story seems good but holy hell why use flashbacks like this. This litteraly gave me naruto 4th great ninja war tsukoyomi (dream) hs vibes lol. Meaning the flashback are soooo frkiiiing long... Might have as well started the story normally and letting some holes here and there to give it the "mysterious" vibe. Then filling them with flashbacks that would have completed previous scenes. Bc I won't lie at 1st I was like oh this is good, I like it, then comes the violent scene and after begins the torture, I'm like WTH is happenning lol.
Why is the pace and gestion of the thing so odd... I was even considering just dropping it. But then I remembered that there aren't many games with female protagonist who aren't married/have lesbian paths with potential great/original stories. So I kinda forced myself 'till I began to undestand the whole thing better. I won't lie, I think I can understand what the author wanted to do. It may be subjective, but I didn't like it (I don't even want to imagine how those who followed the game from the start felt lol), like I said I was at the brink of dropping it when it was getting better. Honestly, putting a flashback on a flashback,... + (I won't talk abt how the writing felt at 1st bc it's obvious, thx to whoever came in clutch) having the flashback lasts for soo long is tiring.
As a reader you are waiting for the main plot to advance but then you remember that you won't undestand much of it if you don't watch those damn flashbacks.
So yeah Namco I think you're just an a$$hole who like to make ppl suffer lol.
Anyways, now that I've emptied my bag. I have to say, I feel a lot better. Apart from all of what I said, the story seems intresting, the characters are good, the teasing is well done, the writing seems to get bett after 0.3... I have to say, I still don't have favorite/s. Idk why, it rarely happens to me but I didn't "vibe" with any of them lol. Usually I'm the type who love'em all lol
dev/s, I wish y'all the best,
THX
