one of my absolute favs alongside ADW .
like the original, i really can’t praise the unique gameplay, well-written characters, music, art and overall story enough !!
it just immediately draws you in, and it was a lot of fun getting to know the villains and seeing an alternative what-if storyline being explored so thoroughly. the way it mirrors the arcs of the original, while showcasing completely different dynamics with our boys from ADW, was also such a treat. I felt so bad at times making an enemy out of them, when I previously was romancing them in the other one lmao :,))
speaking about romance, I was pleasantly surprised by the much faster pace and the way they were the ones taking the initiative. their possessive, overly affectionate way of showing their adoration was such a drastic (and very much enjoyable ) change from the sweet slow-burn from ADW.
Although I’ve admittedly only romanced Jeth so far, I really savored each and every scene with him, yearning for more each time they ended . the way you write is just too delicious and heart-fluttering !! plus , he’s such a charming and intriguing character that I ended up not caring about the red flags at all haha. other than him my most liked character was Deita, my absolute sweetheart (and unexpectedly a simp like the others lolll) .
the way you approached each characters design and personality is another aspect I admire - although some might share an element or class (and the accompanying traits with it ) , they all still retain complexity and differ from each other . like Jeth and Samuel both embodying traits of the air element while also having completely different values and approaches ! loved reading about each class and element and going like ‘ wow it fits so well with this character ! ‘ hehe .
overall I can’t express my love and respect for both you and this game enough , such an creative concept done well . expect to see some fanart soon ! <33
