Deep and Tear Jerking Final Break-Up Conversation, October 20, 2022

I'm giving it a five-star rating for the intense,angsty and extremely deep elements in all the routes. The topic is handled very well considering how delicate and how much of a touchy subject cheating is for everyone. The responses given by both the characters are what one can expect from those in their emotional state. The story essentially puts into question,using the main character's and their girlfriend's dialogue, which hurts more: the physical cheating or the emotional one.

Another question is whether a relationship can be mended after the trust between loving partners is broken because of betrayal/cheating. You can clearly see how madly in love both the characters are with each other,or at least they were, but what is that love's worth when it is only hurting both of them?

While I liked the story (it made me cry even),I have the same complaint as the other reviewers about how much time it took the text to show up. It's a nice effect to keep the "suspense" if done right but it turns annoying if it is so slow that it disrupts my reading pace. If I was to rate the game only based on the UI without considering how good the writing was,I would give it 2 to 3 stars tops.

Nonetheless I recommend the story to anyone who likes a tear jerking and angsty story.
