I'm sure Selebus has been laughing his ass off at some of the comments in the last few pages.

Whilst i wouldn't exactly put it past him... i'm gonna err on that not being the case unless shown otherwise. Selly fucking over his players with his puzzles, laughing his ass off at folks giving out malicious instructions in this thread or the whole DRM thing, yeah, that's all very believable and on brand. But, i think it'd be strange to be laughing at people feeling sad for a character he's made, that's like laughing at his own artistic ability, the fact he could craft a story and a character with enough power to emotionally affect the readers/players is a point of pride if anything, to laugh at us all for being affected by his story and his character just seems... self deprecating? Self sabotaging? Something like that. If he is laughing at us cause we're all dirty pirates here then that looks more like a case of cutting his nose off to spite his face.

I just wanted to say this update with it's single event chain being followed by a really annoying "puzzle" just goes to highlight (to me at least) how this game would work so much better as a kinetic novel. Grinding for affection points and the reset puzzles add nothing to the story. None of the "gameplay" in this game is in any way fun, it just slows you down. I hope that fan remake is still in the works and fixes some of this.

Not exactly what I was implying, I also believe he's proud of achieving that. I was referring more to comments like "he's an asshole and a bad writer I won't play this game anymore" etc. He has a history of self sabotaging, though.

Anyway I was mostly remembering something that happened when Molly got raped:

As sad as Maya's reset was, I feel like this is good for Akira overall. Now he has a tangible goal other than pain avoidance. He'll certainly sulk for the next few updates, but maybe he'll start paying attention and actually ask questions about the mystery.

Overall: I think Sensei blacked out, raped Maya, and since he is the one doing it instead of her, she is the one that was broken.

Now let's see what he has in store and how he deals with this new scenario. Which Maya are we going to get? OG pre reset Maya? Will she believe she is in a secret relationship with Sensei or that part of her memories will get rewritten? Or is going to be a whole new Maya that is not her at all? (plz no). Curious to see how the rest of the class get their memories rewritten to adapt to her, especially Noriko.

Hmmm... i see what your saying though that comment of his reads more like an artist enjoying their art affecting the viewer as intended, visceral and deep cutting far more than 'hahaha loser, i am so happy to have fucked with you'. What self involved artist doesn't want their work to have as strong an impact as possible on the minds of their viewers?

If we disagree beyond this i am just gonna drop it though, i feel like i'm sucking his dick even though i'm just trying to point out he's probably your typical artist and glad to be having such an impact rather than finding it funny.

100% agree with this. An artist (and this is art) wants people to have an emotional response to their art. I think people here need to maybe ease off on their hate boners for Selebus sometimes. It's like people think they're naive if they don't assign the worst possible motive to his actions. I get why people don't like him but he's not Satan.

Yup, pretty much what I was thinking, probably didn't explain myself clearly.

Sure, Maya could. Apparently Sensei has been like this since before the resets were a thing. Since he met Maya:

Sensei's black outs don't actually seem caused by the resets, and presumably this is the first time he's blacked out on her since the resets started.

Ok jokes aside, does anyone have any good recommendations? I'm going to need something to tide me over through these two long months.
