I'm not much of a completionist when it comes to visual novels. Just getting the good endings or accidentally getting a bad ending is enough for me. But the after stories and the achievements really compelled me to get every ending. AND IM SO GLAD I DID. But before I gush about that, I will say that Haley's after story was DEF my favorite. MC is so depressed and anxious in both Binary hero's ending and Double's ending that Haley's felt so nice and fun to read. I'm really happy they were included. (Oh, and Ray's ending was surprisingly nice too! I'm glad he had an alternative, sweeter ending.)
On another note, my favorite scene was Ray's phone call while MC was 'sleeping'. I can't quite pinpoint why, but the vibe of just witnessing a behind-the-scenes act made me feel very loved and protected. I wish more yandere VNs had mastermind-like love interests that did what they want and couldn't care less about other things lest it interfere with the MC.
Now, the piece I really wanted to gush about... ooooooooowwweeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! Secret Z cameo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just about lost my damn mind when I heard his voice! I knew who it was right away, but didn't have a single clue when I saw the achievement box. I was like "Your good friend? Huh??" Now I know what it feels like to see a celebrity irl lol. I feel so revived after getting that extra bit of Z content. I know I said that I'm not a completionist, but I did check out all of his dialogue options from Favor's demo a long while back (even the secret name ending too) so this really did feel like I was seeing an old friend. I missed him. <3
In any case, I loved Binary Star Hero and your knack for writing interesting, natural, and fun dialogue is always a real treat! Thank you for making this!!
