Not gonna lie, I thought he may have actually done it but I also thought if he did no one gives him more shit about it than himself.

The fact that a post had to be made is sad in general. When I was playing the VN I was left in suspense about the truth. More so the fact is that as a character we barely even know Russel, and therefore cannot come to an in-depth analysis of his personality or ethical standing. It's like being told a certain book is bad because of what is on the cover and not the content within. The one thing that I can say with certainty is that foreshadowing or subtlety is most likely not a common nor well-understood skill by those who have made quite the ruckus.

Keep up the good work, and I hope everything works out for you Dzahn.

It is not even funny. The context is very clean. I cannot even call it a subtext, because it is very in our face. What the heck!? 

When I see this kind of things happening I begin to think people have any consideration for the wellbeing of the people affected.

In fact, I have been working incognito on my own VN for some time because it deals with some heavy stuff and I'm afraid to be caught in a sh*tstorm.
