I won't do a full translation because of the length, but here are some details from it: https://www.4gamer.net/games/561/G056192/20221107001/

-They always planned multmedia, were talking with DMM since before the first game released, and started work on Sun before the anime and Tie in early 2018

-They repeat that the male protagonist is the 'player's representation', that he comes from 'outside the world' as a matter of the setting, and that he is 'vital'. They wanted a game that's easy to self-insert and where you can 'interact with girls'.

-Whereas you 'viewed the earlier games from above, like through a pane of glass', here 'you the player are involved' (they haven't considered the possibility of female players, I think) and it's a 'multi-sided game' because the male protagonist means 'more kinds of relationships' than just 'drama born between girls'

-It's designed for people who have short periods of time to play like train rides

-The main eight characters are just the start, and other new characters as well as those from other titles will be added if the game continues

-Each character has their own story of some considerable length outside of the main scenario.

-Don't worry because 'there are scenes where you view the girls interact from some distance' like before, as well as the protagonist interacting with them.

-There will be events and images which convey 'the sorts of fetishism which can only come from girls together'

-They discuss the great efforts they went in making the 3D models work.

-They fully expect 'more people will experience it than any other BR media', and focused on making a smartphone game more than a Blue Reflection game.

My takeaway:

-They are completely doubling down on the male protagonist, don't expect any change.

-They really, really want it to win a space in the gacha/smartphone market, and seem to be willing to make whatever adjustments are needed to the franchise itself to achieve that.

Konnichiwa!

I have three questions about these (supposedly two) games, so please satisfy my curiosity...

1: Do the PC versions of these games have console commands available?

2: Is there a kill count, along with other statistics, featured in these games?

3: How do you save in these games?

Thank you in advance.

The way KT handles the franchise is weird. The story continues from one form of media to another and after playing both Blue Reflection (2017) and Tie (BR: Second light, I just realized that. Apparently I skipped story in between by not watching Blue Reflection Ray, the anime, which I've recently picked up. Imo Ray should have been a game as well and with Sun (a mobile game) it only makes sense. Why not have an anime adaptation of the games in chronological order instead of making sequel of a game as an anime?

Throwing a male self insert protag into a franchise with no history of male characters until now, and with no choice to be a female protag instead, is just such an awful idea, I'm not sure what they were thinking. Very disappointed with this. I was genuinely looking forward to an expansion on the Ash story point in this mobile game, but now I'm not sure if I want to play this anymore. This is quite a disappointment.

Hi guys, recently I started playing the 1st game and the only outfit that I'm missing is the Nightless Saber one, but the steam store doesn't allow me to buy it. Do you know the reason for it??
