This music and art fucks insanely hard.
As for the writing, I am a torture and gore aficionado, so its a spot where I end up with a lot of thoughts and opinions, but I enjoyed my time with this game a lot.
I appreciated this game a lot for the different elements of things like how, for example, Marshal was RIGHT for the sake of the game. Make a girl jealous, focus on one, and you get the ending for the other. I also feel like the writing throughout the entire game was very strong. I enjoyed it just as much as the bad ends, or sometimes even more, just because seeing Damien as such a bumbling, extremely mid guy was amusing. I also appreciate that, unlike some dating sim games, you get to see most things for all the girls, and even get to have two endings from one set of choices. It was satisfying to see it play out that way, instead of getting locked into a route really early on.
