Okay, first before I talk about spoilers, just wanted to say that currently Vol 11 when locked says you need to beat Vol 9 instead of 10.
anyways, spoilers
said it before, but i think the idea of feferi having to leave gl'bgolyb is very interesting. especially because, like she says, she will have to make decisions like this if she becomes empress. one thing that might stop alternian empress feferi from turning into beforus feferi is listening to people and weighing their needs with hers. but also, like, she's only 13 at this point and having to choose whether or not to bassically never see your parental figure again (and how that affects the other relationships that came out of it like eridan) is... sheesh :/
on a different note, having the dream bubbles set up is really cool! i wonder if we will get to see any ghost players. also... yay!!! i love the new sprites :o) whoever made them did a great job! (sg i think? not completely sure if this route was the bonus route 3 you were talking about)
