Hi. Me again. Wanted to throw a comment here as well :>
So other than all the stuff that I yapped on the game page, I also wanted to mention that the story itself was also really good!I loved how naturally it felt going into V's route, and how all the other characters still stayed relevant. The overarching plot of "creating your serial killer persona" also stuck around until the end, which helped tie everything together nicely!
If I had to nitpick, there were a few moments I felt like things were a little strange/inconsistent? Mostly to do with lying to V about our real identity. Since there's the option to tell him the truth about who we are before Ronin starts pressuring us to. And I understand it's kinda played like a joke... but it feels a little awkward later when MC is thinking about how hard it's going to be to break the news to him. Cause... we low key already did that?
Another nitpick is that... I don't think this game should be in the BL category. Yes you can be a guy and date a guy, but you don't HAVE to. It's only optional BL. If I were to play a straight woman, I would go this whole game without any BL. And to me... that doesn't really qualify it as a BL game.
When I think of a BL game, I think of a game that focuses on the romance between two male characters, in which both male characters are individual fleshed out characters... When it's a dating sim, the player MC character is a bit more malleable since they're supposed to be the player. Their personality and responses are different depending on who is playing. It's like... how I wouldn't classify Stardew Valley as a BL game even though you can technically be a guy and date another guy. You get me?
Anyway, just wanted to throw my two cents there for a Well Rounded ReviewTM. The game is amazing, and it was super fun to play! The dialogue between the characters was the highlight for me, and I laughed a little too much at their stupid jokes LMAO.
(Also the most horrifying thing is realizing that I also Capitalize Things For Emphasis like Ronin does... and now I have to live with that fact... OTZ.)
