When i was young i thougt of videogames as games, just like books they were just a thing, a world that didnt exist, but then i played undertale and realise someting, i was in denial, i have always know that videogames, books, comics, movies, etc, ARE worlds that EXIST and they are REAL, they characters their actions their thougths, all of it is real.
And so, to explain myself better, i wanna make a conection with purrgatori, purrgatori is an almost perfect game, its about you being sent into a purgatori with a twist(dont wanna spoil the whole game), our character has a personality and other character have their own, that is ok? no, because when you are alone with a character, your choises are not yours they are the purrgatori MC actions, thougts, their world is not your world, and so when 2 characters interact, you just stand there, a statue, and come back to the world when your character(not you) wants to talk and/or do something, this is a problem with every visual novel game, and the reason why so many people dont like this types of games, but, when other games notice that, they dont try to hide it, you are not in the story but the actions feel yours, this game and purrgatori dont do that, they try so hard to make you into the story, but you arent, i see so many people in the comments say: OoOOoooOOo so sad :( i got Sweet, But Aloof. ;( bro that is the only type of lover because YOU ARE NOT IN THE GAME, and at first i thougth "o well thats fine, its just how the game is made" but the the choises are so dumb " do u prefer kill or murder tis person?" that is how i feel this"game is made.
In conclusion, the game wants u in the story but you arent, then i makes you say things your character wants, and then in the end, your choises doesnt even matter, it was all pointles, why making a game? why not a book? why not a watpat history? because noone will red it? im not saying that the story is bad, is just, NOT. A. GAME; And it makes so... sad, it has so much potential for a larger history or a short one but in another format, NOT A FUCKING GAME, dont make think im in the history, dont make me make choises i dont have control over, make a book NOW.
I felt so bad so bad for the other person, who loved the MC so much it hurt-- and they knew... the other never truly loved them like that...
"YOU GOT: Sweet, But Aloof.
You're thoughtful. You write poetry for your partner, and buy them gifts when the heat gets to be too much. But your self-consciousness can get in the way sometimes; you're too embarrassed to share your poetry, and you go a long time without saying "I love you" out of fear that they won't say it back. Learn to open up. Learn to be vulnerable with another person. Otherwise, how will you ever really love them?"
I'll keep this in mind, I'll try to be more open-- as open as I can... maybe I am afraid of getting hurt, so much more that I never really tried to tell another how much I truly loved them-- thanks for the game :)
This is very good. I am obsessed with tests, your one of my favorite creators, not just in itch. You made a game that everyone can relate to, and still keeping your game beautiful, your amazing, keep it up!
spent the whole time just haaaaating the person the questions were talking to, the person i was supposed to be playing. i had a girlfriend like that once and playing her part felt like driving nails into my tongue. i love this though, you did a great job <3
Well, this totally missed the mark for me. Maybe I'll understand it after I've had an ugly relationship. Maybe I'm not romantic enough. Not sure. Not sure why I commented either, but maybe somebody will find this interesting. On to the next thing, I guess.
Okay, I thought this was just a normal website game but no... it hits too close home. I hate this but I also love it at the same time. It felt like the closure I needed after all those time I needed reassurance or explanation.
going through this entire thing left a bitter but yet,, nostalgic taste on my tongue.
it did remind me a lot about my old partner, it makes me wish we couldve refreshed our relationship and begin again. though,, i know better than to hold onto simple dreams.
the question asker sounds like me, i wish i could have a conversation like this with my ex. i am too young for what happened in our relationship and i know closure like this wouldve helped me. its been a year now since then and thi sgame made me cry, waaa i feel corny
always. i wish i had the guts back then to break it off, they were 18 and i was 15 at the time, but funnily enough, i was the bigger person in the relationship. them breaking up w me, was probably one of the only times they showed maturity in our relationships. yeah, getting back w them would be nice, but honestly, i would've never been happy if i stayed with them. even after they broke up with me, theyd send me "hey" texts and then break me off when theyd find someone else, then come back. its so heartbreaking how someone you love , and trust with your whole heart turns into the reason you don't wanna get up in the morning in just an hour
reading this on July 3rd, as my neighbors shoot off fireworks and I think about whether I'll be able to still love my girlfriend when she moves three hours away for college, hit me a little hard. beautifully written.
Ngl, it felt like it would be part of a sad romance movie about the MC and their former s/o were thinking back to all the good memories they had when they were dating before it all went bad. 10/10, I love it.

F U C K.
I understand your point of view, but about the "your choices don't matter" part, I must say, I really liked it.
Games with multiple endings are too tiring for me. And it's too hard to get the one you want.
So, even tho it isn't a "game", is an experience I like.
OH WOW, A FUKING H U M A N, FINALLY!
I felt so bad
so bad for the other person, who loved the MC so much it hurt-- and they knew... the other never truly loved them like that...

This is beautiful.
I- yea.. I got sweet, but aloof. i didn't knew they will think that i don't love them enough. i guess maybe they need better. i'm sorry.. ;c

I FEEL SO BAD :[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[
this is so bittersweet :(

it aint corny to have feelings and desires on how you wished a person would've acted, this kinda stuff can suck real bad, but it aint your fault
sameee, there's a lot of questions I want to ask to my ex and It pains me til' now, but ig I really have to move on.
have you ever thought if the time machines were real you would go back and fix the bad things you did and reflect to your own self
always. i wish i had the guts back then to break it off, they were 18 and i was 15 at the time, but funnily enough, i was the bigger person in the relationship. them breaking up w me, was probably one of the only times they showed maturity in our relationships. yeah, getting back w them would be nice, but honestly, i would've never been happy if i stayed with them. even after they broke up with me, theyd send me "hey" texts and then break me off when theyd find someone else, then come back. its so heartbreaking how someone you love , and trust with your whole heart turns into the reason you don't wanna get up in the morning in just an hour
