A Tearful Rendezvous

Just for some understanding. I would note a few things.
Spoilers ahead but no spoilers regarding story
Viewers = Players
Movie = Game
Watched = Played

My first impression of it was "WOW". The fact that you doubted what will happen in the game was quite surprising as this is somehow one of the best emotional games I have ever played in a Role Playing Game. I have never seen the true potential an RPG could actually extend to and this by far has been one of the games that actually make use of a slow animation throughout the whole "movie". The "movie" takes it time to show It clearly shows us that RPG is more than what it could do. The music totally suited the scenes but sometimes when the flashback happen and you know what will happen. I did not have a fascinated view on hearing a happy BGM while you're feeling remorseful towards the character. It defeated that small sense of sadness deep in you. It could have been better that the flashback happened just slightly after the point of what the developer wanted to show. One of the few dislikes about the game would be the boy. I fully believe that it could have been a little more easy on the viewers for you to make it less disturbing as he was the only character that literally made me go insane of what he had done to his mother/grandmother/(Have no clue).

The other dislikes would be that it has no interaction whatsoever. I could have enjoyed it a little bit more if you were the boy and had the option to stay or to go(those who play the game would understand, no spoilers xD). I had a little trouble understanding the story. I would prefer an in-depth explanation as to who those people were and how they were in contact with the boy and how the mother/grandmother did not do anything towards the boy leaving and some others(which I'm not going to reveal for simplicity). I know it was obvious but I really wanted to see the mother's/grandmother's script for it as well. The scenes saved after the viewers watched the movie would be better off taken as an advantage to add scripts of the mother/grandmother which the script writer left out earlier. Anyhow, that's all I have to say. Thanks for reading this extremely long review. It was good job done by all the people involved in the game. Good job!
