If I had one word to describe the endings it would be bittersweet. I'll trust the content warning and not doing the Miyah route, and from checking the images in the folders, I think there might be something in the Gerald route too so I avoid it for the time being. I know its your story and all, but it kinda bummed me out how things just became this depressing with the characters I grown sort of attached to. Even the ones which end on a more positive note have this sadness to them, and felt the whole game in tone was a bit different from the previous one. I liked how the main character is more involved in the ingame pictures, and his personality was entertaining. Also, comparing the straight forwardness and lack of choices compared to the previous game is something I approve, as I still have the memories of brute forcing myself through those and that detracted from the experience.
