Helloo!! woooo congrats on ADW being wordiest game among all other projects x3 !
Although ı finished the story the routes one day we will choose seems very difficult actually... and ı have many thoughts on it too :3 well for anyone who might not play this update yet and see my comment... spoiler aleeertt!
in this quest ı also tried to ''no quick save'' challenge and ı did iitt though ı did returned to deployment part where ı put characters on slots to change few things so ı can survive XD Samuel really saved me several times especially when ı couldnt get any bonus.. ıt was very fun to watch beasts getting their own blow and having their HP getting half already. thanks to him ı also survived from -5 bonus vs 30 enemy bonus and enemy simply took themselves in one hit with Samuel's spell XD
When ı started my quest ı wasnt waiting for Ashur to show me a story with his stick men drawings haha XD ı was bit reminded of my middle school times where ı also tried to make stick men comics for my favorite game characters XD seeing Ashur did similar to tell his story was cute
ı also noticed how he doesnt like jonas even to the point of passing the part he joined the team in the story and realize it once looking at his drawing and seeing three stick-man XD
ı guess ıts safe to say that his whole painful journey was for Eve though Jonas also looks like fond of him. Sadly, his fondness seems one sided. I wonder why they find him special. Perhaps because he did his very best to help them even though that meant he was opposing to gods? but then once Jonas told me ı am also special human in his eyes and he only wants happiness for Ashur and me ı was bit surprised XD because ı didnt really do something? but then the reason he told me that was his way to pull me on his side? though they were also very friendly in Gacha date game.
speaking of Jonas, I really like him ı think. he seems very chill and knowledgeable character who seems to be aware of situation everyone is in. Though ım not sure he looks this calm just because he trusts his power or simply because he just seen so many things that ıt doesn't much matter for him. I also saved all his ''ask me question '' times to return back to ask him everything and there was a time he said '' ıts rude '' and ıt kinda made me felt like he caught me XD
For crown side in god's favor route, It may sound interesting but ı kind of find ironic that crown trio who were villains in the side game will play the role of ''heroes''.
Once they were saying that as long as ı dont oppose gods my relationship with them wont sour... well well weren't you the ones who destroyed a city in the side game -_- ı know they will (at least Queen Miyetta will) probably grow more open minded but ı guess ı just cant see how as my flashbacks coming from side game aren't leaving me alone XD
now that I am having more than 20 god's favor and planning to not change it since ı wanted to let my own choices to open my first route, ım looking forward about how things will turn out and what kind of relationship ı will have with everyone. to be honest ı would love to be friends with the queen since ı dont really see her as villain or pure bad person but more like normal person who is being too stubborn for now. ı kind of feel like jeth will stay being jeth so ı kind of feel like he will act close to the villain's heart side game except being forcefully ''flirty'' against me. which works well with me haha ı wonder how things will develop with him this time. I dont think ı will have problem with Mikaylis either since except for his anger issues, stubbornness he was normal person too in my opinion. ım looking forward to watch their reactions thorough all situations XD
as for other endings ı think ı will get them one by one even though ıt will take some time for me though ı think ıt will worth it ^^
ım also excited about new votes too! ı was first surprised at bribing but ı guess money can rule even ideas. the new city also seems to work like that except people are bit angrier?? ^^;; ı was surprised that old woman literally tried to harm me after apologizing and just fled after Ruwin came.
And ı like how we can see interactions between our guild though they seem bit chaotic haha XD I really loved how they kind of argue with each other but always try to do their best for MC. hopefully ı will manage to get happy end for all since ı love my team :3
oh and ı think ı managed to see a very small bug ıt doesnt really causes harm but whenever ı opened my Menu section and wanted to return to game ı saw travel options waiting for me XD ı did it several times and made sure ı didnt clicked on travel button but results were same and funny fact ıf ı click travel button and then menu section once ı clicked return ı wasnt seeing any travel options but ı was normal button like tavern, shop etc... and ı wanted to inform :3
Thank you for all the hard work !! ^^ the new update was very cool!

Hi JustaOneGirl,
Yay~ Thanks for your feedback as always! I look forward and enjoy reading your thoughts! I'm really glad to hear that you found Samuel's ultimate useful! (TBH I was afraid of it being underpowered/unnecessary but I also have devpower of max bond+system knowledge) It was incredibly satisfying this one playtest I was fighting frenzied chiropteras and they blew themselves up in one hit charm :D
I was also curious if you would spend time with Jonas, as you can completely skip that 'date' if you choose to. I'm glad you liked getting to know him a little more before you have to choose sides. As I am hoping the player will have some empathy for both sides in the final conflict.
As for your thoughts on the Crown, I won't say too much to let you form your own opinion but it does make me wonder if the player would be shocked to see their dark side if they ended up playing this game from start to finish before Villain's Heart. The order in which I made these games is kinda messed up but it is what it is LOL. In the simulation where there was no anamoly/outsider, their quest for assertion ended up making an enemy of their fellow human instead. They were basically emboldened by the possibility that the TO possessed and let their ambitions rule.
I ended up adding more dialogue and activity than I originally thought, such as beast war, jonas date, and even the random bickering in front of the carriage was added because I felt like the main cast was getting side lined a little with everything happening with the Crown and the Old Ones. Your comment about seeing the characters interactions being chaotic but fun, made me think it was really good I added that extra 100 lines of the carriage scene LOL. Hopefully it won't seem too rushed or like a 'filler' episode. I always want the game to feel good to spend time with the characters as priority. <3
Aaaah I think I have a feeling what happened with that menu issue too! I have a few more things to investigate O_o. Thank you so much and best wishes~!!
