thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment!! 🫶 i’m really glad you enjoyed ilya as a character!
i completely understand what you mean about the mc’s dialogue/branching being tricky to read! there is a reason why certain endings are harder to achieve and why the trust/suspicion balance can feel a little ambiguous, especially within the demo, but i definitely want to make sure it’s not frustrating in a way that pulls people out of the experience. by the midpoint checkpoint in the full game, the branching will flow more clearly depending on where the player ended up previously, so hopefully that’ll smooth things out a bit!
if you don’t mind me asking, when you say the mc’s dialogue could use some work, was it more about if it was inconsistent at times or about how the mc’s personality comes across overall? it’d help me get a better sense of what could be improved for future updates!
