I love this game so muchh. I regret not knowing this before.
I like how Friend always says "Its ok if u don't want to" and the fact he's glitching!
(a bit of spoiler below)
I got interested when things would go back in time and there were some glitchy parts of him/ Noticed that in the main menu it says "Play with me" and some choices had Friend's message like "apologize, i'll forgive you". I'm excited for the full game and the lore, especially Friend's well written character too!!
