Oh.... this is by the same dev as Tropicali.

Any weird curveballs I should know about before getting into this? Because Tropicali had some of the best humour I've seen in VNs, but then the ending was a massive flop, at least imo.

How should I put this...

1) The game has very confusing and very acid trip-type moments that are extremely important to the plot. Believe it or not, even the stupidest of things (you would see one just in the prologue and know what I meant) are actually extremely plot relevant and not what they seem.

2) The story is NOT what some of the people who abandoned it after the first couple of hours seem to think; you wouldn't actually get to the true story until after chapter 15, like around 19 or so. This is by no means just a slice-of-life/romancing-girls game; this is more like a Lovecraft-meets-the-80s type of game.

3) The game has only a couple of sex scenes animated; unlike Tropicali, the dev wanted to focus on the story first and add the animations in later updates, and there is a battle system that is not yet implemented, but there is a test of it in the game.

4) This game is LONG.

5) There is a very high probability that there will be things that you don't understand, but that would become pretty clear on a replay.

6) This is almost entirely a kinetic novel.

If you don't have any problems with any of the things I just mentioned, then you should definitely give it a try.

Well, this is just my take but I think you got it right with it being because the dream was created inside Auxo. CJ just created a reality where everyone was happy and nobody ever knew him, since in that same arc he keeps struggling with the thought that everyone's lives would have been better without him. Since Auxo is truth, the dream morphed to represent everyone's truths. Kieran wasn't included and instead was shown what she really was. Cro took Sarah's place, and now we know why. The true connection of the Hebe shards was revealed, and CJ, who wanted a mother, called to who is his/Jacob's true mother, who is still spiritually connected to him. He doesn't know what everyone experienced because he only created "a world where they didn't meet me," or at least that's what I think after what he said in 51. And because that's all he did, he only knows what he experienced in it; he didn't put in the specific details of that dream, only that one condition + Auxo Truth's influence.
Yeah I think that's probably the easiest explanation, Auxo's nature probably played a big part in it, thanks
