Ahh what a treat. A wonderful prelude to a story I know is going to be absolutely mind bogglingly beautiful.

The art, the music, the world...just the presentation made me so hyped and excited about the strength of VNs. I haven't felt like this in a long while and even though I regret waiting so long to play this, I'm genuinely so glad I'm going into 2025 riding on this feeling. Just knowing I have more of this world to look forward to just gives me some hope. Thank you, thank you. I simply cannot wait but you better believe I will for as long as it takes.
