I enjoyed experiencing the night club from two different perspectives, both Zak the Kine and Diane the Toreador. The inner voice felt reminiscent of Disco Elysium and was conducive to Zak's self-doubt about talking to Diane, and to Diane's struggle with the Beast. The dance floor and music felt like a nod to VtM: Bloodlines Asylum. I liked the scene when I found Johhny and the one where the antagonists' true identities were revealed. The stat screen and roll system seemed fun, and I enjoyed the few times I had to leave it chance to see if I could proceed as I wanted. The play time felt inflated because of how long it took me to walk everywhere--I wish there was an option to toggle sprint. It became a little tedious when I was ahead of the story but had to return the long way twice, e.g. with the screwdriver for the ventilation shaft. I enjoyed some of the subtler details, e.g. why are they chilling the red wine? I like the way you communicated the effects of Presence on me, from the perspective of a Kine. My game bugged out after the two POVs joined and I tried to go downstairs. Was that the end of the demo?
