holyyyy shit it is 1:20am, i have shit to do in the morning, but i just devoured all 6 chapters of this as ravenously as bella ate those people in chapter 5.  honestly each chapter was better than the last - i bloody loved this one.  mainly just because - i dont know how different all the ted stuff is if you didn't choose for your character to be in love with him, but oh my god it was handled so well.  i'm not even talking about flea's jealousy - though that was obviously very fun - but just the fucked up, complicated, traumatic nature of it all?  just how fucking sad it is for the player character to be in love with ted?  it wasn't in this chapter, but the flashback scene where you can have the player character touch themself thinking about ted and feeling so crushed and guilty about it - i thought it was handled so well.  you captured the feeling with such clarity.  i've been really enjoying slowly RPing my character getting over ted and finding something healthier with flea - becoming their own person.  it's just so well written.  unlike this comment, which is a big late night ramble lol... but yeah.  as an Individual With Emotional Baggage, it just all really resonated with me.  obviously my parents werent murdered by demons and im not in love with my sadguy cop foster dad.  but there's just this kind of universal traumatic emotional perversion - perversion not in the kinky sense but in the distortion sense - that you captured really well here.  i loved it.

anyways - i am sorry this is so wordy!  i obviously enjoyed loads of other things throughout the game - the dialogue is extremely natural, flea is a fucking endearing little pest, and the sex scenes are genuinely really good.  and im fucking picky about sex scenes, lol.  i just wound up going on a long ramble about the ted dynamic because it moved me.  apologies again for so many words and looking forward to chapter 7 :D

What an incredible comment to wake up to this morning!

Thank you so much for playing, and for sharing your thoughts in such detail! The unrequited love option for Ted is an exercise in masochism and unhealthy coping mechanisms, and I'm so glad you got so much of what I put into it out again.

I'm really glad you're enjoying Incubus, and so grateful that you took the time to share your feelings on it. <3
