Yeah you are right, I should have phrased that a bit better. I wanted to say that the drama dies down and nothing really interesting happens on the "monster side" or to resolve the various open plotlines. It also didn't really introduce any new plotlines that need to be resolved. SIN introduce themselves, a monster eats the groom and we get some info on fertility and evolutions. However it seems you enjoy the more "slice of life" aspect of the game that MC's time in college supported, so my idea was wrong from the start.Hey, thanks for replying. It's not that it slowed down, it makes sense to slow down after the climax.
I would say that the game speeds up massive instead of slowing down. There wasn't a lot of build-up before that fight instead we get a simple message saying that a month passed and the fight happens right after the wedding.
But I honestly got my money's worth already, I'm just a bit sad that the ride feels over.
As far as the build up is concerned though, I will have to disagree. At the point where MC fights Valravn, all these plotlines are waiting to be resolved:
1. Deryl's Arc (started when Deryl monsterfied)
2. HERO vs Ella (the first shot was fired when Clark and Alexis failed to get her)
3. The Lord of Dark (Introduced with Valravn in relation to deadend 3)
4. Ella's plan for MC
5. Langdon's efforts to antagonize HERO.
Aside from 3, everything else has been building up for quite some time both in game time and in real time with update frequency. From Jake's defeat to HERO busting Hex's dimension, literally nothing happens to resolve any of the plotlines, despite how quickly the days pass. Even that fight managed to resolve 2 of othe 5, and introduced a myriad more.
I personally think that things don't happen quickly enough. Even at this pace it will be hard to resolve all open plotlines in a reasonable time frame, moreso if MC goes back to doing 1 thing per week and spending the rest of the time building relationships and doing unrelated slice of life stuff.
