I started playing this after going through Once In a Lifetime and I gotta say that this is a massive step up in quality. Not only in the animations and models, which are great as well, but in the writing.
The story so far is extremely interesting, drawing inspiration from some very popular media, but adapting it to its own distinguishable world. The characters personalities are really well built and you empathize with them right away. Their relation to the protagonist also feels more natural and adds more weight to the story.
Really outstanding work Caribdis, looking forward to what you have in store ^^
