First time reading - after I finish the rest I plan to come back to see if my opinion has changed
The thing I like most about this IF is finding hope/found 'family' in a place full of depravity (which I think is what this story is going for), I thought it was funny that my question of "does this involve werewolves?" Got called out lol. But I'm all for a mafia/gangster vibe
Something I'm unsure about that is making me hesitate on giving my thumbs up for this IF, is that I can't tell how the story/chapters would work? Like will there be an overarching gang war thats kinda hinted at, will it be MC being given a singular job and we just see the insights of that, will MC be going through multiple different mini (dark) storylines with different characters they can choose to be in a team with. I'm just not sure yet if this story is trying to be more worldbuilding focused with how the gangs work (with like factions and leaders and jobs and maybe how it all plays in the real world) more mc focused really diving in and fleshing out any of the backstories and their impact, like would they use the resources they get for revenge? Would that be a big plot point. Or character focus, where we spend more time learning why each character chose this life, chose to stay. And thats where the found family stuff comes in
Maybe a mix of multiple?
Anyway just my general rambling thoughts for now!
