Thanks for the quick reply, i downloaded the 0.5.59 version as it says on the page, but i cant find a language option in-game, and i cant find it in the files, tl/english/ does not exist and the ui_menu section is commented out.
Also, according to your dev logs, official English support was discontinued since 0.5.16, so i dont really understand why you posted 0.5.59.
Is there something im missing?
I was particularly shocked by the way the beautiful crystals he used to hide his scars looked during the scene with the armless guy. 😣
The crystals now looked like an all encompassing rot was consuming his body, reminding me of medical pictures of epidermolysis bullosa and of how sometimes, mental sickness is metaphorically represented by graphically transforming the body. 🧐
The peaceful music at the end made things even more disturbing, the juxtaposition reminded me of some of the disturbing scenes of Evangelion and Perfect Blue.
It was uncomfortable to see how far Callum is willing to go because of his worship of material things.😥
But i was impressed by the themes of the VN and want to see more of Callum's journey into materialism and excess. 🙌👍
Honestly. i really liked the things you listed, thats why that cliche romance plot bothered me enough to comment on it.
I have no issue with romance, i just dislike the one this novel presents for the reasons i already listed, a couple of examples of romance i like are:
Tennis Ace, the romance takes a long time to blossom, but it feels completely earned and organic.
Echo,, even though the romance kind of fails to blossom into something concrete due to character flaws and extenuating circumstances, the romance that it contains feels real and fleshed out,
Minotaur Hotel, the romance takes a long time to actually go somewhere due to the extreme power imbalance and trauma one of the characters has gone through, but it works.

One of the ways i think the VN could have handled this better is by making the romance take a lot longer, as in, maybe we see hints of interest in the characters for the first hours, and then they get closer due to their experiences in exploring the lands and protecting the people. The way it is done in the VN just feels sudden and unearned, there is no reason for the MC to be in "love" with a wolf he just met and got arguably kidnapped by.
There is also no need to make it a mind numbingly slow romance that takes 40 years to go anywhere, im okay with relatively fast infatuation, i just dont think it was done well here due to the way the MC seems to gush over Loken in such an intense way.
Dude, even insinuating such a thing is absurd.
Tennis Ace's updates have always been punctual and impressively substantial, and Shoichi's C path is not fluff in anyway whatsoever; it's very different to the main path in interesting and messed up ways, and the new scenarios bring out never-before seen facets of our favorite characters.
Even if Tennis Ace's update pace somehow slowed to a crawl, it'd be a completely different situation than what happened to Blackgate due to the sheer magnitude of unique characters and non-interconnecting stories that the latter offered (you could date basically everyone in town)
