Yup, I love those love birds. That was a good move, making a ship to sail for Butterfly as he already destroyed what's his. As always, only Zero and CC have the clue of the 'real truth' . I'm falling into this deeper and deeper, thus I am interested how you'll wrap things up.

It would have been nice to have that android but I did love how it refer as Butterfly knew that it will be his doom due to Zero, that small details which came from the other game is a well done. I won't leave as well, until it's over.

Spoiler Alert

You really fill up gaps at the best time. This explained why Butterfly was killable and Happiness Mc's changes as the series plays. Saying things as it doesn't matter and not using us "Observers" to choose what to do is not like him!

It became really obvious that something is interfering as I lost more choices than before, that was a good add.

I'm just laughing now as Good bye time traveler Mc is being called kid even though he is the one with college student look out of all of them. I do know that Butterfly has the oldest look but still, calling a college student a kid is funny, I hate my humors.

Now then, for the real ones. I'm curious about more on CC and Zero as these two character are probably the all knowing ones but I'm not gonna expect for now.

Question 1: Was the decrease of options intentional? If it was, that is a great choice.

Question 2: Would you explore more of CC's side just like how she knew the existence of the Player? Zero is a more mysterious than CC or maybe equal.

Anyway that was a ride for this game.

Major spoilers for this game.

1- ''Happiness Mc'' is in his late twenties and ''Goodbye time traveler Mc'' is 22 years old but the reason Alex calls the ''Goodbye Time traveler MC'' kid is not because of the age difference but because unlike Alex who has been through so many tough experiences including being in a real massive war during his days in ''Existence'', the ''Goodbye Time traveler'' is relatively inexperienced who only been through one or maybe two experiences.

2-The decrease in ''choices'' in this game is due to the current mindset of all three MCs. in games with lots of choices like ''Reeva'' for example, the Butterfly in that game is confused and lost, he wants to escape the Null's torture but a part of him believes he deserves to remain there which gives the player a lot of freedom with choosing his fate but in this game ''Divinity'' every MC has found his purpose and goal so making a lot of choices will go against the Characters growth over the years.

3- CC has an interesting final arc seeing as once the series is over she will probably not be able to interact with the player anymore. Not just CC but many other characters have a big final arc ( like the fact that Alex is dying which means Mirall won't to be born in the future) which is why I'm currently planning on making several side games in the series exploring these things before making the final big game in the series.

This is a harsh yet good story.

So that's what it is, as expected. Using the Mc's mindset to decide the number of choices is a great thing to have as a sign of character development and about the Happiness Mc I never thought you'll do this. It reminds me of Ethan Winters...

I have one last question.

Seeing how CC won't interact anymore is a threat to me, anyway doing all of this before the end is new to me. I'll be looking forward for more.

Question 3: Goodbye time traveler Mc was aware of the Observer which Destiny hired. What happened to it?

1-In terms of the ''Happiness MC''. his ending is not decided yet, moments before I saw your comment I was thinking about it actually while working on a remastered version for ''Happiness2 ''.

I kinda have a general idea about how his ending will be but nothing is final. The only thing I know for sure is that I want the "Happiness MC'' to have the most suitable ending ever, whether it will be a happy ending or a sad ending is less important to me right now.

2- The observer ''Destiny'' hired is ''You'' (the player). Destiny is a game admin ( like all high observers) she tried to use the player to further her ambitions but failed because you chose to side against her at the end of the'' Goodbye time traveler'' game and shot her.

First of all, Working on the remastered for Happiness 2 after that thief didn't work on it....

Nice, that's pure passion.

And I'm looking forward more for the Happiness Mc's ending whatever it is. As long as story isn't set in stone yet it'll be fun to anticipate.

So in conclusion, the observer's role already fulfilled it's purpose therefore it is now gone in the story progression?

Forgive me for a lot of questions, I really like the idea of the reader/player having a part in the story instead of just watching over the Mc.

At the start of ''Devotion'', you can see the ''Goodbye time traveler MC'' saying something like '' they are back'' which is because they sensed the return of the player but that's it. Destiny can't use the player again as an ''observer'', CC can sense the player but if she admits it or informs other characters about the ''real truth'', the ''SYSTEM'' will delete her just like it did back in ''Null''.

Zero also knows about the ''real truth'' but she finds it more interesting and fun to not tell anyone.

Zero is just being Zero.

Reeva knows about ''the village'' but she has no idea about ''the real truth''

"Zero being Zero."

Yup, that makes sense.

Thank you for answering all my question!
