Thank you so much for playing my visual novel "To My Darling"! It seems you played this soon after release, so a lot of things have changed since then (updated visuals, the writing has been touched up a tad, and of course, the tags/content warnings have been updated to better reflect the game's contents.) I had a lot of fun watching this video and can definitely appreciate your more comical approach on some things within the story. I laughed quite a bit. Regarding your final thoughts, I actually found your discussion on the cat scene incredibly interesting, because that scene wasn't added until very late into the script (maybe it shows? lol). The purpose of it was meant to be to give the player a bit more time with Kyouko and hopefully get them a bit more attached, but I can also completely understand how it can be seen as a time waster, since nothing actually interesting happens during that part. It's just slice of life silliness right before the horrors. I tend to cringe a bit myself when the scene comes up in playthroughs 😅 I appreciate your feedback very much! This video was a joy to watch and I once again thank you for playing.
Thanks for watching my playthrough! Yeah, you're right about this being an earlier version of your game. For context, I go through previous live stream footage and edit/publish them as proper videos (it's *marginally* better for the algorithm!). And definitely take my opinions with a grain of salt! I always have a specific preference for how visual novels are written because I've played a ton at this point, but it's by no means the "right" way to make one. If anything, my perspective is contrary to the old school classics, as I like story formats that are more akin to a screenplay or something similar. Subjectively, there's no wrong way to write a story... Unless it's the one where Aoi gets a happy ending, that guy deserves a gruesome and painful death. 🙂
@@SighingSlider I understand completely! I appreciate you playing my game for an audience regardless of which version it is ^-^ Regardless of your specific personal preferences, I think it's nice to listen to all perspectives. I did take something away from this video, and I am thankful for it. (And it was generally just a fun watch overall.) My next project currently in the works is more screenplay-esque, so if that ends up catching your interest, I hope you will enjoy it. (But if not, that's all good.) Thank you once again for playing. I cannot put my appreciation into words ❤ (And don't worry, Aoi won't get a happy ending)
