Hey, I appreciate the very length review and I'm happy to hear you ended up enjoying the game despite your criticisms of it. I believe comments like this come from the people who care the most, even despite the negative points you bring up, so trust me when I say that I'm glad you provided your thoughts.

Still, I simply can't ignore the fact that several of the things brought up in your review are very uninformed and/or entirely incorrect.

You say that more encounters should exist, and bring up friendly encounters as an example. Correct me if I'm misunderstanding, but are you saying that friendly encounters should be in the game if they aren't? Because they are in the game already. There's one in the Palace. (I'm probably just misreading your wording, though, so this isn't a huge deal)

The "bugs" that you bring up aren't bugs, as explained in various places in the game. You say there should be a token dictionary. There is one. If you took the time to read the tutorials or look at the menu, all of these features would be incredibly obvious.

You complain about having to scroll through the Penitentiary stuffing event when there is literally a button to skip it and fix your exact issue. You say the Gourmand event has no variety, when it's one of the most expansive events in the game and has differing outcomes for every choice that affect runs in different ways. You say the Infection comes from both Gourmand and Diabolist, but the two different afflictions they each add are wildly different.

The genuine criticisms of your review I can appreciate, like the lack of variety in events and the lack of images for some characters and scenarios, and I'm going to be working on this stuff in the future. However, I don't understand how you talked about so much of the game's content and still provided such a largely misinformed review.

Like I said, I get that this review is well-intentioned, and I don't want to push away someone who enjoyed the game enough to provide so much feedback. However, I would urge you to do a bit more research and take more time to verify your claims before posting so much criticism in the future. Despite that fact, though, I'm still grateful that you took the time to review the game at all.

I am so sorry that a vast amount of the comments and notes were wholly/partially incorrect, it changes my view on the game itself entirely. But there is some information in the tutorials that isn't mention in the introduction, and if you were to encounter some of these mechanics in the main game, you would probably pass it off as a bug. The final line of my review, on reflection, was massively exaggerated, and I apologise.
