So I have 2(3) Problems with this "game", something I suspect it doesn't want to be. So I'm first going to list my problems and then go a little in depth about them.

1. It's boring
2. It doesn't tell you what it wants from you
(3). It's rather linear

1.
So by boring I mean that it is basically a book with pictures (yeah I know that's basically what a visual novel is) and it is kind of my fault, I kind of expected a story where every few textboxes I could choose from like all the other VNs I played so far. Now this is obviously not what this wants to be, but I just ask for a little bit choice how my character reacts and so on, it doesn't have to be changing the outcome of the story.

2.
About that choice of how my character reacts, I also kind of started off whith the notion that I am the main character of the story, not that I should pretend to be a certain character and I think the game does telling you that poorly, maybe start off with a simple exposition of who my character that I am playing is, because I am playing a character designed by the writer not by me. I might also have this problem because I have a hard time to pretend to be someone else who I am not and it's made especially hard when the game kind of starts of with the illusion that you can choose who you want to be.

(3).
Well as the creator already stated in other comments it might become a story with branching paths, but even if it doesn't I will still try to give this story a chance. It's just that I absolutely enjoy playing those branching VNs because I love finding all those different endings and what you have to do to get them.

Summary:
It's a nice start, could be improved and I really love the story and the character of Valos and the hint as to who he actually most likely is (maybe I'm completely wrong on that one, but oh well) and am looking forward for more of this story.
