I've played with three different OCs and Cove and it has been wonderful every time. I love love love how there are endless possibilities with MC and Cove's personalities and their relationship. I've played an OC who had a crush from the start but was always nervous around him. I've played one that had a gradual friends to lovers route and one that was enemies to friends to lovers and who was always very comfortable with him.
I've been following this game since the Kickstarter and have been so excited with every update. When it finally came out, I was blown away. GB Patch delivered. They did more than just deliver. They excelled. This game is so thoughtful and heartwarming. Every choice counts but not in a punishing way. Sure, some have consequences but they're logical consequences. They don't lead to some imaginary affection level dropping. They simply shape your experience. I am so thankful to the thoughtfulness when it came to creating the choices. We need more games that have this level of inclusivity.
I look forward to the future DLCs and the second Our Life in the works. I am so happy that I live in a time where I get to experience this lovely story. Thank you so much. (Now I'm going back for my fourth round -- an OC that is convinced they're going to marry Cove from the start haha)
