❤ Meaningful Choices and Consequences

Players praise how every choice, no matter how small, significantly impacts the story. Your decisions not only affect your relationship with party members, but also how those characters interact with each other. For example, reviewers describe instances where characters will remember and react to past dialogue choices, such as a party member scolding the protagonist for ignoring their advice earlier. This creates a reactive, lifelike world where there are no clear "right" or "wrong" paths, only the consequences of your actions.

❤ Depth of Characterization

Reviewers highlight the game's well-realized cast, noting that each party member feels like a fully-developed person with their own personality, goals, and evolving opinions. Players appreciate small details like changes in facial expressions and body language that make the characters feel genuine and responsive. One reviewer mentions how a character angrily called out the protagonist for disagreeing with them too often, demonstrating the party members' independence and willingness to challenge the player's choices.

❤ Replayable Narrative Structure

The game is structured to encourage multiple playthroughs. Initial playthroughs often end tragically, but revisiting the story unlocks new branching paths and deeper insights into the characters and world. Reviewers highlight helpful features like the ability to quickly skip past text they've already seen, as well as an in-game "history" that allows players to review past dialogues. This replayable structure, combined with the meaningful choices, motivates players to thoroughly explore the narrative.
