I just finished the game. I cried so hard at the true ending. Goddamn, this story and experience was heartwrenching, I had to find determination to make progress, but I still needed many breaks. At some point, quite early, I cant even fap to the scenes anymore, I just try to stomach them. The story just grips you, I just felt like I need to see where this is going and how will it end, just like the second game. Though this one's true ending made me cry so much and relieve me of my anger and sense of betratel towards the heroines, while the second one's true ending was still very good, bitter sweet and just a great conclussion to the story, I still couldnt really feel bad for the heroines.
This ending just turn all that desperation, betrayal, bitterness into tears and grievance. I liked that whole reveal with the old god and the conclussion so much. It felt like that whole painfull experience led to something. This is, i think, this creator's strong suit, the endings, the pacing and culmination of the story. Really enjoyed the writing.
I think I also understand ntr better now. I kept thinking while playing this game, why am i doing this, its so painful. I realized that this wasnt supposed to be just naughty and hot, but also lonely and depressing. It starts on one side, then slowly but surely transitions to the other. When at first you wished for scenes and less regular plot, now you wish for more story and less scenes, because they start to hurt more and more and get longer and longer. This is like Count of Monte Cristo with sex, but even more traumatizing for me at least. Its also not just cucking, its about loved ones being stolen.
The game just know to play and tug at your heartstrings, like when you go through wolf infested territory, and you are shown Nestia cornered and begging for help, and you think you'll save her and save your relationship to her, only for her to be saved by Gizmo and she hugs him dearly as her saviour, the last piece of the puzzle that made her fall completelly.
If you have read this, is this just me, did you find the scenes toward the end still hot, didnt you feel pained and had your heart sink, like it didnt know if it wanted to slow down or speed up? Did these events now follow you while you lived your normal life, imagining if you could get revenge in mc's shoes and how? Im just confused and conflicted about these kind of games and ntr as a whole. It feels like it makes me bitter. I just want to know how other people felt playing this game.
