LopaPhi, this isn't just an AVN... THIS A GODDAMN MOVIE!!!
It got me tearing up in Chapter 1, especially since I relate to MC with being on the low for a long time and what it does to your mind. I took your warning seriously and prepared myself to see the MC being such an irredeemable POS that when I saw him raise his hand, I felt sad for him. Seeing what he was about to do made me think of how bad he was mentally and it got me to better appreciate the major scene between MC and Desiree. I love the pacing and how this game made me think that "we're all just human in the end". I especially appreciate you using good models in places with lots of people. It made it feel immersive and helped me stay engaged with the story.
These 2 chapters were enough for me, I feel satisfied. I do still look forward (and excited) to see what you cook up later in the game but just know that even if you couldn't finish the game, I wouldn't even sad. I'd be happy that I at least got to experience it.
