    The story is a lengthy, melancholic tragedy set against a historical backdrop, praised for its atmospheric and immersive qualities but criticized for uneven pacing, excessive flashbacks, and a lack of satisfying resolution. While some players struggled to connect with the new characters or found the narrative direction confusing compared to the predecessor, many appreciated the poignant side story of Man Sui and Master Liang, which provides emotional depth and closure. Overall, the story's dark tone and slow-burning plot garnered mixed reactions, with enjoyment often tied to one’s appreciation of the prequel.

    • “Fantastic read where everything in the story is tied to a historical period that I previously knew next to nothing about.”
    • “The plot is lengthy, but it kept me genuinely engaged throughout my playthrough, and I will admit that some of the normal endings, particularly one of the true endings, moved me to tears.”
    • “If the author's intent was to elicit an overwhelming sense of despair and melancholy, that the reality of this world was such that some things are simply never meant to be, then this story completes its aims thoroughly.”
    • “Personally, I had a hard time attaching to the new set of characters and story, and skipped a lot just to get to a part that hinted any ties to the previous game.”
    • “The flashbacks begin to overstay their welcome, and don’t mix well with the protagonist’s circumstances in the present; the memory loss as a plot device starts to feel lazy.”
    • “The story can't seem to decide whether it's total fanservice for the prequel, a dystopian survival story, or a tragic love story trying to tell itself it's not a tweaked copy of Romeo and Juliet with a weak and nonsense plot twist.”
