Chan Prin Chapter 4 has been an adventure. I mean, I already had a lot of questions when I played it initially, especially considering that ending, but also there are SO many illustration options.
There’s probably so many more replays I could do, but I didn’t want to lose ALL of my savings replaying (Especially when that Dragon necklace costs 10K...) plus I will admit I was a bit nervous about running into a game-breaking bug again (A huge shout out to eBabylon Games/Axelerum for not only fixing it so quickly, but surprising me with a good chunk of energy which will be super helpful for future playtrhoughs) so these were the illustrations I did end up getting from my multiple replays seeing how things changed with gift giving and stuff.
One thing I noticed though is that I didn’t get to keep any items I got on past replays. So I no longer have the butterfly painting for my face from my initial playthrough, the rock/punk necklace/choker from the auction from my second playthrough, or any of the other hairstyles from my initial and third playthroughs.
I’m not sure if that’s intentional or not (I recall hearing it wasn’t? At least I swear you’re supposed to keep items you earn with replays in the same way you do illustrations), but at least at the moment, you do lose out on things so um... sorry about not gifting stuff. I wish I could’ve bought two of each thing so I could gift and keep them. If only that was an option ;~;
Anyway, for the most part, I just picked random options. The one with Sophie is from my initial playthrough, but I also got it in my final playthrough as no matter what, the option Celeste would’ve picked would have been to check the hills to see if she saw someone and then get distracted by the flowers.
The one thing I noticed is if you picked to try to not do the exam, you would actually die and get reset back to that choice. I’m curious if that’s still the case though if you took all three extra classes and agreed to more lessons which is the only change I made for my initial playthrough. Would you still die? Or would you only get the illustration alone?
For those who didn’t watch the video, I had accepted Juliet’s offer initially not realizing I couldn’t go to the training after and it was the one thing I considered replaying for. In this one, I rejected her wanting to paint and went to quickly have lunch and go to class and accepted the offer for more lessons.
Which resulted in me getting the illustration of just the MC along with the one for Sophie who I had been with for the exam.
Anyway, speaking of Celeste, I’m still playing around with outfits. I have a new hairstyle for now, though, I’m hoping the new hairstyles introduced this chapter will appear in the shop in other colors.
Similarly, I kind of wish there was a shoulder item slot--mainly as I’d love to wear the hedgehog and a necklace of some kind, especially now that I have so many:
I will never take off that Hedgehog, I love it too much. Also pink bear earrings are also adorable.
Also still hoping for more shades of the top I’m wearing. Mostly pink to bring the outfit together, but yeah:
I’ll probably change to a longer hair again soon over Celeste having it pulled up, but I really like the shade of this particular style--they’re usually either more purple, more black, or a bit desaturated for the darker hair:
Regardless, I think Celeste looks pretty cute in the meantime. I wish I knew more people who played. It’s a lot of fun and I’m looking forward to the next chapter once it’s out.
Also, for future reference:
Zaida likes Ribbons and headbands
Sophie likes Calligraphy pens
Tiffany likes rings and precious stones
Juliet likes digital colored pencils
Caesar collects Dragon’s King figures
Elliot likes Pastry molds
Icaro likes novels by Natasha Alexico
So if I DID give gifts, give Zaida only the headband, Sophie just the pen, Alba the earrings, Tiffany either ring, Juliet the pencils, Dani the wristband, Caesar the expensive 10K figure, Elliot the pastry molds... It seems both of the items you can give Bastian are ones that Blink ends up liking/being happy with and Icaro the novel.
