I must say, I have no real complaints about the game at all. Sure there are some scenes and concepts I wish were explored but overall, I am addicted to this story. Been playing it from start to "finish" (it's current .97 build) and I can't wait for more.

There is just one thing that confuses me: The MC's monster parent. I theorized around the midway point, that I could of ended up infected by either depending on which direction I had chosen, but the story implies that the MC's monster parent should be either both or simply the 4th as it seems that the 3rd can only do transformation. How does the MC get both powers if we never (physically) interact with the 4th during our evolution? Seems like a plothole that makes the rest of our story incompatible. I can only guess that either both parents have the same abilities, but each specializes in one aspect or the other or you will explain that we were infected by both at some point that night.

Just thought I'd point that out. I love the fact that both appear to us at different points, but with that first interaction being so "incomplete", it makes her random appearances not connect the same without knowledge from the wiki.

Love the work, Weird World. Keep it up!

Actually, I guess what really makes the first encounter strange is that there seems to be no true difference to our powers, instead just with sibling we interact with. It makes the choice a little redundant if we essentially get the exact same powers no matter what.

It may have been better if the choices were to run or to fight with fighting being the bad end and running leading to us being infected by both as the better candidate.

Late reply, but the best justification I have for it is that since the apostles are twins, someone who one infects could potentially develop the powers of both. Ella, for example, is a spawn of The Body, and she doesn't seem to have any access to the memory powers like the MC. During the first evolution you enter some type of dialogue with your monster parent, which changes based on who you chose at the beginning of the game. At this point, I suspect the difference is thematic, but maybe it'll have some more substantial impact. I suspect, though, that the Eye that keeps talking to us will be a more main focus rather than the actual progenitors.

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm getting from the storyline so far. It just kinda bugs me that our progenitor was even a choice when it seems that the Origin (eye thing) is the more important storyline here regardless of how we approached it.

But maybe its a set up for later?

I know thag I personally have two different saves, each with one of the two twins just to see what happens. Lol
