Let me start off by saying this shit is peak. The story is actually extremely engrossing, best game I've played since undertale. Gary is a peak antagonist.

I have one question. I understand if you were to go home on any of the days, the game will give you the bad ending. Well, I'm currently on the third day, so I want to ask...will my game save at me doing the bad ending, or will it save on the beginning of the third day

Like, let me elaborate. You have a character that was a certain way, maybe did something bad, or was an absolute asshole to the people he cared about, or he did something that he had no choice in, and now another group of people resents them for it. They take in the coldness and bad treatment from them because they are trying to atone for their actions. Now, for a lot of cases, the character is able to endure it because they know that they deserve it.

But...what if they finally stop caring at one point?

I don't mean they become evil. Their change is genuine, but the moment everyone finally decides to say 'we forgive you and accept you back', they just say "fuck off." Like, all that coldness and NOW they decided to accept him back after treating him at a distance for so long.

Like, City of Brass by SA Chakraborty, for example. The character of Ali is treated with coldness by Nahri and his brother Muntadhir for his betrayal in the first book, and he works hard to earn their forgiveness back. But the shit he goes through in the second book, at one point, you eventually wonder how he doesn't end up eventually just rejecting them. Like, his character development wouldn't go away, he just develops resentment for his treatment. Or Ant-Man's treatment by the characters in the second movie simply because he wanted to help out Captain America.

Like, it's hard to point out characters for this trope because this example usually has them do something real bad, but i've never seen one where the character DOES change, but...they just grow resentful more and more.

Edit: I think i should have clarified. i don't mean the character goes back to being a villain. Their arc DID have them genuinely change for the better, but the treatment they got from the main characters has them become resentful towards them. They didn't become bad, but they just finally have anger over their treatment now.

What do you guys think?

Dude....if this is the weakest book in the series, then the next books have to be fucking Shakespeare.

This shit cleared the first Hunger Games book series. Like, its like if Hunger Games decided to go all out ambitious and execute it in such a surprisingly well done manner.

Titus was a terrifyingly evil villain, and Jackals sociopathy was actually scary. I have never in my life seen a man stab a guy repeatedly just to get to another guy. And cutting off his hand was raw as fuck.

Happily looking forward to the next books.

Are they all...naked after the passage? Like, I get they were stripped naked before doing the passage, and when they all meet up together, but are they STILL naked throughout the whole of the civilization phase thing? Like, do they get clothes or something?

Also, RIP Titus. Man was evil as shit, but the reveal was crazy sad.
