are....there no choices like at all?
Arena of Thebes is a kinetic novel, which means it doesn't offer choices that impact the story. The focus is on delivering a rich, atmospheric narrative with detailed CG artworks and immersive sounds. There aren't any player choices at this time, the experience is designed to be filmic and engaging and an experimental form of visual novel. After much reader feedback such as yours, it is however in the midst of extensive updates which will introduce choices while retaining its previous design decisions. Stay tuned for upcoming releases that are right around the corner.
