This scene really hit me hard deep down to the bottom of my heart. The perfect answer for the question that haunted not only the MC but also the player from the start: Should we continue to keep the images/memories of the thing/person that we used to love the most and live with that emptiness to the day we die
OR let the memories fade so that we can start a new journey, so that we can keep moving forward and left behind the past that were constantly haunting us.
Never thought that I would live to see the day that I got to see an emotional scene like this, coming directly from an adult game. Thank you very much Kinderfeld.

Kinderfeld is Very good at telling human stories, with both emotional moments like the moment you captured, as well as great humor. Now and Then is a top 4 AVN for me because the story is SO good.
He does not need 12+ LIs to tell a great story.
Each woman involved with the MC is special in her own way, and the Director's Cut made some of those women stand out even more (I'm talking about Julie in particular who was the one LI I wished for and, with the DC, got to enjoy.)
I'll close with one of my favorite early Julie moments - of the humorous variety.
Carol just asked Julie if she was going to be her new mother, and here is Julie's response:
Now and Them also released very early during the rise of COVID, where the isolation many of us felt in RL was mirrored by the growing isolation of the MC, Carol and Naomi.
I was flying for work on planes that were 90% empty, landing in airports where everything except bathrooms and the occasional water fountain were closed, and seeing the few humans who were there hidden behind masks and, with some, also face shields.
I remember playing Now and Then in my hotel room, eating takeout (there was No dining in anywhere) and pondering my reality and the reality of Now and Then... Surreal!!
Cheers!!
