Amazing update, was beyond excited to see there was a new chapter. I’m not sure if it only happened to me, but the relationship meter almost seems to reset at the start of chapter 6. Like it’ll be at Soulmates or Love but will switch to Care as soon as chapter 6 starts, whether you load an old save or just play all the way through. Not sure if this would have any impact on the plot.

Hey there! Glad to know you liked it! :D
The relationship meter is something I have to change once I finish this first act, I am aware. I noticed it was way too easy to get a high relationship with the characters, so I decided to manually change it since it's waaaay too early in the story for the MC and the ROs to consider each other 'soulmates'. The 'love' part depends a lot on the RO since they all have different dynamics. Some will develop feelings faster while others aren't in love with the MC yet or don't even know they feel something for them.
Still, it isn't too important. The plot remains the same, and the MC will be on good terms with every character even with a low relationship. What matters the most is the friendship meter, which decides which character shows up in some scenes to talk to the MC or who will comment about them and the RO in certain situations. But yeah, I have to improve that aspect of the game in the future, and I will. For now, though? It's not something you should worry about, it won't affect the story.
Thank you for the comment! :D
