I'll be honest: do you guys also feel like they ruined the essence of Ankou's character? Don't get me wrong, I love his backstory of sacrifice but my problem is when they reveal who he really is. I feel like they really did him dirty changing the way people saw him as character (at least for me, since I'm not a big fan of Adolphe tbf).
Also, I have mixed feelings about the explanations regarding the curse and Ankou's origin.
I liked that they tried to explain soil contamination and Ceres's powers with some "logical" basis, but it becomes weird once they go completely overboard with the sci-fi elements in Ankou's route. It's one thing to have fantasy elements surrounding Ankou's character and the idea of an underworld, but it's something else entirely to delve into time travel. I feel like the game had such a "medieval" theme in certain aspects that this just felt really out of place. I could believe in magic and relivers, but not time travel. You know what I mean? At least that's how the world had been built up so far.
I like Virche's characters, and I think they're well-developed in other ways. Like how Yves seems destined for Ceres and their chemistry, as well as all the faces of Scien that make him an antihero, but Ankou's character was a bit of a letdown imo.
Let me know if I'm not the only one who feels this way pls
