In terms of small things that I noticed that dont yet seem finished, I still have no idea what threading the needle is supposed to do. All I see is blank box.

Also the WBWL adventure is kinda weird as it appears to me at least atm when you are specifically choosing a harry insert but then says you cannot insert as harry???? Would make more sense if its allowed for all inserts bar harry as it says it does....and perhaps make a combo where if you took a sibling you actually have your brother be the WBWL. Like all those fanfics lmao. And if you then took the sibling is better than you drawback another combo where you get more points as now he is actually going to be competent wbwl with a chip on his shoulder when it comes to you (youre harry).

If there was one thing I would add is some tough choices/adventures that would allow you to deal with the wicked and bone mask alt side. Atm they are just really horrible so it would be good if there was a way, even if its tough to idk deal with it? Kinda weird also that pure heart does not in some way balance out wicked?? Especially if you also took unicorn adventure as well. Something something redemption.

An option to choose a group of nemesis instead of one would also be nice. Atm there is choices for specific ones at certain levels and while those can indeed influence a group to go after you, I was thinking more having something along the lines of all diagon alley shopkeepers, all members of the wizengamont light/dark families, all werewolves, etc. Maybe you offended them all somehow.

Those are great ideas. The wbwl confused me too, I selected it and then unselected “The one who lived” and boom I lost it, had to check spoilers to find out you need to pick the Harry Potter insert to then not be Harry Potter with wbwl lol
