what's sad here is that you read my comment and thought that I "can't dream of something different and better" and that you didn't seem to understand the point of my comment.
it's nice that you can "think of something different and better" but can you actually talk about that further than this abstract idea of "different and better"?
Just finished the first playthrough and got ending 2! It was really cute! That was a lot of teasing that I did not expect but really liked XD. I love how Ross keeps bringing up their past, the absolute madlad XD!!! Also, Aries is totally me in lifestyle; hide in your room, work at home, completely forget to take care of self. Also, child Aries was really forward! Even going so far as to marry Ross! *blush*
Anyway, another game I absolutely love. Thank you! I'm planning on replaying it rn for another ending hopefully... idk how to get the others tho... we'll see...
you, yourself, are a part of society... if a group of people were to focus their time on other pursuits, the other group (ones not reappropriating time) would have to work to sustain themselves and the group not working (which would be unfair)
employment is not the problem, it is merely the tool used to assign value to people's effort
the ones assigning that value are the real masterminds...
you may revel in your "strategic indifference" as much as you want, but the fact is it offers no solutions to the problems we face...
if you are entitled to a living by society's capacity to provide, then you, yourself, should be providing by virtue of being part of society, otherwise you would be cleaving the people in half; one half who makes effort, and one half that doesn't
the question, then, would be: who decides who goes to which half?
(or would you claim to not be a part of society?)
you cannot live without expending effort to do so... basic necessities do not rain down from the skies
everyone has a role to play in this complex, convoluted system...
the values assigned to our work is biased, skewed...
a small portion of humanity benefits the most from the larger part's toil
but unemployment doesn't exactly help now, does it?
the ones in power working behind the scene should be the target of our unrest, not this shabby system that is only a tool at its most primitive form
retreat to your forests if you want, live a nomadic life, sustain yourself on the bare minimum but know that you STILL have to expend effort to live
and if you want to no part in society's scheme, then don't expect it to sustain you either...

... I did not expect to love this as much as I did... I was set on trying it out because the "summary" intrigued me. But I ended up absolutely LOVING IT! I haven't even met the whole cast of characters and I am already hooked! There's just something about his game... The flow? The narrative? The plot maybe? Idk but I am DEFINITELY following this through to the end. Also, the chapters I've read so far have been really engaging. I couldn't wait to find out what was next every time I reached the end of a chapter. Looking forward to seeing more! You did great!
Out of all the IFs I've played, this might actually be my favorite one! I love the story, the concept, the characters, the lore, and the construction of the entire game! Also, I have only met my mentor (Cencric) briefly and I already love him to bits! This game also pulls a lot of emotion from me and really drives me into having strong sentiments and thoughts about the... current events. Really looking forward to seeing more!!!
Good luck with the schooling and the part-time job!
I didn't say anything about ruining the experience. It really is quite good! I just meant that some sentences do seem a bit jarring because of the way they are constructed which can affect the (flow? idk if "flow is the right word?) of the narrative...
I am indeed going to follow this game through!
