Hello! I recently bought and started playing this beautiful game and I'm blown away. I loved every single one of the characters and how they developed. You really feel like you grow closer and spend time with not only the love interests, but everyone around you. The requests rarely ever felt tedious and instead rewarding, as well as fulfilling to see the interactions once you complete each request (though maybe that's just because I'm a people pleaser haha). The plot definitely buttered my croissant. The court intrigue and drama kept me on my toes, overall a very immersive first play.
Just finished Aurelius's route and man did he spark my competitive side. Successfully got almost all the stat checks except one leadership and one etiquette check on his adventure mode route. Did I spend an ungodly amount of time on this? Yes. Was it worth it? Hell yes. I actually found Aurelius irritating at first (in a good way) and that's what lead me down his route. To beat him. Suffice to say he ended up stealing my heart, and there's no winning against that little smirk of his. Now I'm on to Serin and Nazir, but in conclusion this game is very much worth it. 10/10 would recommend and props to you guys for this gorgeous game.
