maybe i am just old and out of touch, but this game did nothing for me. i only got one ending, so i can only speak on that, but it made no sense narratively and felt like was only put in for shock value? i wasnt thaat invested in the story to begin with, but the random way it ended out of nowhere really turned me off on the whole game. i was really trying to be into it—-zilas was alright kind of cute mostly carried by his voice acting, and the chat and livestream was pretty immersive, even if im not into the streaming scene. but in the end, the whole experience just felt like pandering to make zilas likeable to the player, no other substance otherwise, just to twist the affection it spent its entire runtime trying to earn into shock horror. this did not work for me, personally, but beauty, beholder. my playthrough of the game really just ended with me going, “okay. what am i supposed to feel about that?” i didnt fall in love with zilas (as cute as his va was), and i wasnt horrified by the ‘twist’ ending. i’d be more open to discovering the other endings if there was a skip feature of any kind, but there isn’t. based on the other comments, i’ll just assume the others have as much substance as the one i got, and it’s not really worth it to me to get through the quite long, unskippable, and in my opinion bland scenes just to see random shock gore at the end. maybe the full game will improve on everything that disappointed me here, but i doubt i’ll be around to see it

just played through this a bunch of times and got a lot of the endings and i enjoyed it a lot! the replay value was really good, with the different post ending items and the various ways to win the game. the characters were also very fun to interact with. went with russ my first run and he's still my favorite <3

all that said my only complaint is i couldnt peg chance more than once TT
