I used the recommended stat spread. I did not pass a single check for the entire time I played I. I know how these games work mechanically. The reason I’m highlighting the fact that I failed these checks without any of my own input is because if there was some sort of interactable gameplay element, then having failed these checks would feel fair as opposed to arbitrary.
Honestly I didn’t vibe with the main character, and the game not letting me leave my own impression on him, in even the smallest way (putting on a tie for example,) didn’t make me invested in them. I got to a point where my only option was to wait hours of in-game time before I could progress further. At that point, having not been able to progress, not had an engaging gameplay element to interact with and not being invested in the character I’m playing as; why should I have continued?
It’s a shame really. The horrific necktie is one of the funniest things in the game! I also don’t vibe with the character. He’s a horrible person! But it just makes the whole story all the more funny to me. I can actually identify way better with Kitsuragi… Anyway, the game is not for you, so I’ll stop trying to convince you now! That’s also not the point of the post anyway.
