THIS COMMENT CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR THE GAME AND WAS WRITTEN ONCE (AND WITHOUT EDITIONS OR REVISIONS) BY A FAN VERY, VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE GAME UPDATE, PROCEED WITH CAUTION AND UNDERSTAND THAT SOME DEVAGATIONS MAY SEEM IRATIONAL (Also: bad writing because English is not my native language):

(05/06/2024 - 13:04 PM: I've updated this with some extra writing and ramblings, I haven't revised anything I wrote now or previously, so if nothing made sense before, it won't make sense now either)

I really liked that the game was updated and I particularly have some opinions/criticisms about the extra content and the new character, there are also other things I would like to say so I will separate them into topics:

→ Image gallery:

I wish we had a gallery reserved for CGS. The game has a lot of beautiful art that I would like to revisit without having to take screenshots or having to replay the game, the save progress feature is useful for revisiting these areas, but it would be nice if it had its own space. I like the fact that the panels with character information are saved and that it is possible to revisit them, so why don't we have that with the arts?

The arts are still very beautiful, I like the author's style, it brings a lot of personality. Especially when you look at the characters involved within this work.

→ Endings:

I like that the game opens up the possibility for several endings, but at the same time, I feel a little strange by the fact that there are many endings that are simply the same (but I think it makes sense that this is the case considering that although they happen in different situations, the deaths finals are practically the same, so there's really no point in giving them new titles) most of the time when you die the ending title is always “overstimulated” or “pest control”, I think it's cool that you can get them in different circumstances and at different times and occasions. Just like the CGS gallery, I wish there was some kind of guide/list to know if we unlocked all the possible endings, there were endings that I only discovered after someone made gameplays on YouTube showing all the endings, it would be cool if we had this type of feature when the game is finished or later, it brings more control to whoever is playing and also makes people more invested. 

→ Extra content:

This specific section contains spoilers for the game's extra content, so if you, who haven't played the game yet and went to see the comments, found this comment, don't read the next lines (and for people who still intend to read trigger warnings: SA and non-con) 

I was playing all the endings that were possible on the Nauseaxe_404 route, until I chose to flirt with the character and touch his chest. I won't go into detail about what happens during the scene, all that needs to be said is that the protagonist/you is 🍇ed while them begs for it not to be done. I'm not here to condemn and say that the producer behind this content is romanticizing the abuse, as at no time was this scenario is treated as likeable or praiseworthy (It's clearly marked as a bad ending), this specific character, as well as the other three characters are not meant to be models of an ideal relationship, they are all mentally ill and they all have problems. However, I think it would be worth putting individual trigger warnings for each character/route, this way players won't be surprised or triggered by material that make them reexperience trauma and to generate crises (and yes, I read the warning saying there was a scene from SA, I just think it could have been more specific). Furthermore, I think this extra content could be better if it didn't have a non-consensual scene, obviously the protagonist/you is afraid of this character and doesn't want to have any kind of contact with him, it makes sense that they are afraid. But I think it would be really cool for all the fans obsessed with the character if there was the possibility in the future the protagonist/you could have the choice to be somehow attracted to the character, or at least that it was possible to demonstrate interest (I would have found it very funny if this extra content was a consensual scene where the protagonist/you actively wants to engage in adult activities with the character and he ends up dying in the process, but at least they ends up dying happy) . Another thing I thought of is the fact that: this game has a lot of moments that are humorous so I find it particularly strange that there is a non-consensual scene placed in the middle of the game, it seems out of place, It also appeared uncomfortable that the name of the ending is “🍇 aka... gRAPE”, it doesn't seem like it was taken with due seriousness, I say that as a victim of SA. (At the same time, there's nothing wrong with containing non-con scenes in a game, I tend to play Boyfriend To Death more times than I'd like to admit. And the people who follow or watch fetishistic content, they are not bad people or criminals, people use this type of material for fetishes or as coping mechanisms, I am not going to be the bastion of morality and say that people are wrong for liking it).

Prticularly, this was what made me most uneasy about the work, of all the times I played the game and the story it didn't seem to lean towards this type of situation (I admit I can be very oblivious sometimes, so it's a gray area), the story of this game has many moments that are humorous, although there are moments that are a little more serious (and these are usually the death scenes of the protagonist/you) I find it strange that this exists. At the same time NauseaAxe_404, is a mentally ill character and has not shown empathy or any regret for killing people, so why would SA be any different? At the same time, just because a character is capable of killing (and that he derives satisfaction from doing so) does not mean he is capable of sexually abusing someone. At the same time, the character is also impulsive and has no control over his own emotions... He is almost incapable of controlling himself when overly stimulated, but at the same time it seems strange...

→ The new character (contains partial spoilers too):

I really liked the new character, I like his language and the fact that he seems, at least at first glance, more formal and polite than the other part of room 001 (at the same time, it is interesting to note that they have the same level of homicidal tendencies, although for different reasons) . It has a very interesting story and I liked the variety of monsters/species that this universe contains, it's always a box of surprises and particularly there are many moments that I find interesting and that made me laugh a lot. This character has a more interesting story than the resident of room 001, but particularly the resident of room 001 will always be my favorite, (although I was really unmotivated and I lost part of my interest and affection for the character because of the extra scene) I like how there are still many possibilities, I find it interesting how calm he seems, at the same time that it seems much easier to die for this character compared to the resident of 001. The resident of 001 has a very clear impediment as to why he doesn't kill the protagonist/you, unlike the sir knight, I like how diverse the characters are and how an interesting construction was made for each of them.

I think these are all my considerations about the update, the text was longer than I imagined it would be, but that's it, to the people who read this far, thank you very much.

Please tell me there will be like actual endings for each monster once they've left the room. I want to actually knight Sir Knight outside the hotel like we promised. He's such a sweetheart once you manage to break past his rough (and homicidal) exterior!

404 always makes me laugh, but knight has all kinds of characteristics I like! like loyalty, ruthlessness and baking!   ԅ(¯﹃¯ԅ)

Hey I just wanted to ask if you are already working on or thinking about a Spanish translation. Either way, i would be glad to help if you dont have someone trying to help you ^^

Me encanta, de mis juegos favoritos por los hombres enmascarados. Solo falta una traducción al español
