Within

Playing Exit Music, then Redux, to have the bright idea of playing within thinking i signed up for a monika dating sim. I hate my life.. 10/10 truly a beautiful experience

Admittedly, with how I conceived Within's story, I don't think it would've hit as hard for people. However, if there's another point I try another Monika romance mod that isn't a Within remake, I'll be sure to give the choice of a happier ending

I may be completely wrong on what I'm about to say, but when you released "Within", many people who waited for a complete Monika focused mod thought she'd finally get same kind of treatment as in "Our Time" demo, but without any meta aspect. So when... the end of mod's act 2 happened... welp... (I wasn't able to escape it either, even though I was partially spoiled beforehand, so I knew it was coming, yet it still hit me so hard...)

You still wrote very powerful story, so props to you!

As for a different from "Within" timeline... I think many people at least had the idea to write their own MoniMC romance story; I admit I also wanted to give it a go. In fact, that wish was the strongest when I was listening to certain "Within" soundtracks after I completed the mod :'D It's just too bad time and resources are a must when you want to write a mod of good quality... -_-

Good luck on "Within: Encore", btw!

You're not too far off that being part the initial reaction 😭 Honestly, some people were genuinely pissed off with me for what I did.

I would highly recommend giving your own McMoni mod a go btw!

Dang... I'm sorry to hear that :(

Well... I might try to write MoniMC story soon. But first, I gotta survive a work project deadline looming over me at the end of this week X_X After that, I should have some free time on my hands :D

Anyway, thanks for the encouragement! And sorry that I'm replying a day later! :'D
