Hi, just wanted to let you know that I'm really loving this game so far! I'm following the Gabriel route with my female MC and really loving the dynamic (love the guy already, especially that aphrodisiac scene!). Hopefully there will be more chances to be disobedient and shake him up, cos that's always hella fun! :D
That being said, I had an observation and idea I thought I'd share. While reading there was one detail that felt a little odd to me (but maybe I'm just misunderstanding), and two instances of it.
The first (well, technically second but it's what got me to thinking) is when you go out to dinner with Gabriel and he asks you whether you want Italian or Greek, I found that a little odd seeing as I thought there'd be more of a focus on cuisines from some of the weird and wonderful dimensions out there, considering the 'otherworldly' setting and the plethora of choice you get in markets? I figured maybe Gabriel would offer some otherworldly choices to MC that are perfectly normal to him by now, see MC's puzzled stare, and then realize that of course MC's never tried these things, and store it away as something he could be the one to introduce her to (maybe when they actually get to have that dinner!). Is there any celestial cuisine in the Night Market (may be a great thing for them to bond over - his memories and MC's enjoyment of a food he loves/loved from home)? Or maybe some foods that can have a weird effect on the human system (good or bad) that could make for a fun/funny/scary scene? In that vein maybe MC can discover they have an allergy to some otherworldly food (to inject some serious drama, including the fear and guilt that RO may feel in having introduced them to the food that endangered their life - even if it was done unknowingly).
The other instance was during chapter 1, when Milo and MC eat Chinese (iirc?) at that noodle stand. Actually, when I first read that I thought there'd be something otherworldly about the noodles that further pushed the idea that nothing is as it seems in this place MC finds themselves. Like making MC feel even more displaced.
Or am I misunderstanding and human/earth visitors are common enough that earth cuisines is a well-known or even prevalent thing there?
In any case, I figured it wouldn't hurt to mention this, since I think fictional foods are just one way, but a great way, to make a game set in an alien setting feel that much more bizarre/fascinating/interesting while bringing people together in the experience.
Oh! Also, just as an additional note, I noticed a number of spelling mistakes along the way that you may have missed because they may not have been flagged due to being correct words in their own right. Two from the latest chapter that I recall are, 'tress' instead of 'trees' when MC first enters the market to buy clothes, and 'staging' instead of 'staying' when Gabriel is talking about where he came from and why he's no longer there.
Anyway, I can't wait for the next update! I'm really loving all four main characters so far, especially Hazel (who's lovely and still bff material) and Gabriel (best boy)! :)
