I‘ve really enjoyed spending the last month or so in caleare. I think I can say that with some honesty since not only have I played Ebon Light several times, I’ve also made several character-based playlists, and spent an inordinate amount of time thinking about the world and the people who populate it. It’s that kind of game. It gets in your head.
The world is well-developed, the characters are interesting and multi-faceted, and the main character can actually be who you want her to be: whether that’s a trembling innocent, a cunning jokester, an @$$-kicking antagonizer, or any combination or those or several other personality traits. No need to mention the art, since you can see for yourself in the previews, but it is stunning.
While he doesn’t seem to be the most popular choice, my personal favorite LI is Haron. A quasi-intellectual curiosity nerd who is also charming, attentive, and gorgeous? Clever, flirty dialogue? Yes, please!
I have to admit though, I was surprisingly charmed by the teasing-Lacey relationship. I’m not normally one to go for anyone I consider to be a bit of a bully, but wow did I enjoy the dialogue that went with needling that poor guy.
And then there was the dance of trying to outwit Duliae. Ok, they were all just great and each was unique and well-worth a play-through or two.
Thank you for all of the time and effort you put into this venture. It is absolutely beyond the quality of many paid games. I am happy to contribute some funds to your future endeavors, and I very much look forward to seeing your next project.
