153 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the intriguing characters and world-building but criticizing the pacing and rushed conclusion. While some found the narrative engaging and rich in potential, others felt that plot threads were abandoned and character motivations lacked depth, leading to a disjointed experience. Overall, the game showcases strong writing and character development, but suffers from uneven pacing and a lack of resolution in its overarching plot.
“The writing and story direction is very well crafted and thorough, drawing you into the world-building and the mysteries to solve—though this is a very character-driven story and watching each of our cast arcs unfold is the core of this story.”
“The story is so lovingly crafted by people who love fantasy and love these characters, and the ambition of having three separate player choices is incredibly considerate of the player experience and made for unique routes and romances, showing the difference in station and class—who treats you different and what that tells you about that person.”
“The characters are all so well done, and the story is exciting.”
“The ending just rushes along and you are basically just along for the ride as your character is not even really necessary for the story.”
“The story felt increasingly rushed and stitched-together as it went on.”
“The first 80% of the game barely anything happens, as if the writers were feeling like they have all the time in the world for developing romances and unveiling the plot, and then suddenly it was time for the grand finale and they went 'oh crap!' and crammed everything they could in the last 2 chapters all at once, but there is only so much you can fit there, so the majority of romance content was cut as well at a number of lesser plot threads were left untied.”
