Yeah, I'm loving the hell out of both paths. I think Meghan is the most realistic female character I've ever encountered in a Game before, and I think it's because of this fact that you really do feel like a piece of shit when you are on the Mei path. She is very intelligently written and NOT the typical bimbo in these games who are completely oblivious to what the MC is doing behind their backs or are just stupidly okay with the mc having 20 different fuck buddies at the same time. (sorry for people that like stuff, but in reality it's retarded) (where is Avaron1974 ? I think she'd appreciate how well these women characters are written) The way Meghan's growing suspicions and encroaching sadness is conveyed is just real.
Well, they are pointless to me. If there are clues there I don't care about knowing them, so yes, I do skip them. Dreams are dreams. They are products of imagination and I disregard them every time. Using dreams for storytelling or, worse, lewd content is just an poor way to do it IMO. I dislike dream sequences in almost every game, be it an AAA title or a small visual novel. That's just me though.
Hopefully, it won't take actual three years of development to get to that point.
More seriously, I concede I wasn't thinking of it as a prologue anymore (they don't usually take this long). Perhaps the main story will be told differently.However important she may be, I'd rather know only what the MC knows. It would be more interesting coming home and then trying to figure out why she is different (which is basically what I'm trying to accomplish by skipping these scenes, but it's somewhat annoying that the game doesn't offer an option to do it itself).
Yes it is, and there was possibly an allusion to Vlad The Impaler as well. Did anyone else catch that? Also all the Symbolism going on. We've had a serpent, an apple, and the Eye of Horus. Did I forget something? Don't know yet what any of it means but it lends itself to intrigue. Also noticed the dev started adding bold letters to key words in the dialogue and that was probably a good idea, because it seems many people are missing it's subtleties. This story is fucking deep and geared at a more mature crowd for sure. Careful attention is required.
I would like that, but it doesn't really happen for me. The problem is the one thing missing is a prologue to the prologue.
Why should I care about Meghan? There is no introduction to her character. It's just "she is your wife, so you should love her". The game throws Mei at me before I get to know anything about her. Cheating on a woman that I don't know is not a very conflicting thing to do.I don't recall if you said you played both paths or not? I was only on the Mei path for the first 3 chapters and then decided to go back and play the Meghan path, and it was on that path that I truly started to adore her and get to know her. So if you haven't tried her route yet then I highly recommend it.I would like that, but it doesn't really happen for me. The problem is the one thing missing is a prologue to the prologue.
I'm keeping my eye on it.
I'm going to spoiler....I would like that, but it doesn't really happen for me. The problem is the one thing missing is a prologue to the prologue.
The Vanilla route is full of romance....no cheating required....highly recommended.
I played Meghan path for the first two chapters and, well, she didn't grow on me. Even so, it shouldn't be a requirement to play her path to fully enjoy Mei's. That's just poor design.
It may come down to preferences, but most of the Japanese VN's I've played and liked follow the protagonist's point of view.
It's the opposite actually. It's an effort to save the immersion.
It's not a waste , to make it more realistic, every wrong/foolish decision has consequences and don't think you can easily getaway with it without paying just because you're playing as the MC, for example going on Mei Path cheating with her
Yep, it's obviously a jab at that game's developer for disappearing.
