I played this game as blind as I could.
I saw his face, I saw the title of the game, and I hit download.
The aesthetic of this game is absolutely enchanting, and the artwork is so lovely.
Playing this game was like looking at an old snapshot and thinking very wistfully about the person whom is the contents of it, which is very apt considering the aesthetic and the ending.
The whole thing makes it feel like Pasha is wisps of smoke, I personally felt honored that he liked me enough to pass through my fingers on the way out rather than never interacting with me.
His background and how everything came about for him was so out of left field that I nearly felt like I was playing a comedy vn for a second, if not for the seriousness and the gravity everything else is treated with.
I feel warmly that even if Pasha ultimately has to let MC go, that necklace will stay in a place of honor, either on their person or in their house, and Pasha will always carry warm and fond memories even if he goes and does other things, or finds other people (If I have read correctly in his info screen, he later gets married).
As the game aptly puts it: You are two ships passing through the night, signaling to each other, letting them know you are there, and you see them too.
Beautiful and melancholy game, amazing work on all fronts.
