Confessions about The Arcana Game

[okay so after playing the tales chapter thingy I 100% now know I enjoy the game for the story the most bc I really enjoyed this tale thingy more than I do the romance stuff (but the main story is super good too) and. I'm aroace so it checks out incredibly well. I like the story more without me in it I feel, playing as Lucio was super neat]        

[I think we might get the 3 other routes if we have the bad ends with the 3 principal routes]

[I like that arsa is nb using he/him pronouns, and I like how MC will use they/them until the character’s pronouns are revealed. They/them isn’t the default pronoun for nb people, so when I heard Arsa was I was through the roof! It upsets me that he has no outright “yo. Im nonbinary.” Explanation in game though.]           

[Is it bad i really want to romance Faust? Like she cares so much, in every storyline shes always there for you and whenever you need her shes at your side. Have some magic shit where you turn into a snake. Plus Faust’s patron is the lovers, so maybe??????? I will never stop hoping.]     

[I think edge calls to edge because when I started The Arcana I only took a look at Julian's design and knew he'd be my favorite. I've never been so right.]           

[After that one paid scene in Asra’s route where you, him, and Julian group hug in the dungeon? Julian is our honorary masochist son now.] 

[IDK why but Julian always goes after my male MC over my female MC in Heart Hunter ;-; What's worse is the male MC hates Julian]     

[When I first got this game I fell in love with Asra. It felt like they truly loved the MC. I eventually finished his chapters, So I had to decide whose route to read next. I decided on Nadia. I found hers to be boring. I love her as a character,  but I couldn't really develop an attachment. I finished her story a little disappointed compared to Asra. But then Julian came along. He was the best decision i made. He made me realize things about myself. I wish he was real. He is my one true route!!]          

[I don’t like Asra. He’s unnecessarily standoffish to everyone but the MC and I KNOW he wouldn’t like me if we actually interacted irl. My personality is more similar to Lucio than any other character in the game (he’s an ESTP, I’m an ENTP) and god knows Asra hates Lucio. I’m not who Asra loves lmao. Playing his route just makes me cringe.🤷🏼‍♂️]       

[Lucio has the best thighs in the entire game.]

[I prefer Julian without an eyepatch tbh, I just think it’d be uncomfortable and mess with daytime depth-perception]     

[I kind of wish authors didn't tag Asra fic as M/F or M/M - nb characters are nb regardless of if they use he/him.]            

[I have C-PTSD and bad chronic pain and am a medical marijuana user for it. On my bad days I like to imagine what it'd be like to get high with Asra and just enjoy an afternoon and be taken care of]        

[I might be the only one saying this but I think Lucio is hot and I am waiting for his route to come out.]

[I feel like the Lucio tale’s monetary option was useless and that the tale wasn’t worthwhile at all. I wish the devs would focus on the main story, which seems to be fumbling.]

[Sometimes when my insomnia is bullying me, I open up the arcana app and just leave it open. The music on the title page is so relaxing and peaceful, it almost always helps me sleep]
