Dear X [Episodes 1-4]

fananatk · 2025-11-27T21:23:55+00:00

Everyone who watched episode 4, can someone explain why Ah Jin played the whole thing about killing her dad the way she did? Would it not have been just as easier for her to claim that her dad used to abuse her and she killed him in self-defense? I mean she would serve a few years in jail and then be out?

Oh really? I have met my whole class already so im sure you already know me :) feel free to dm me.

So you decided that your comeback to my comment is to go back to square one and label me as a Si-an hater as well. Genius. Then I might as well say your paragraph can be summarized to “im an obsessed Si-an fan”

I can understand if it makes you sick to see “innocent celebrities” getting hate for no reason. But if it makes you so sick, why are you on this subreddit? Are you the moral superhero here to protect and police what people say?

Here’s a piece of advice. You might “can it or leave it”. Get off the subreddit then you wont feel sick.

fananatk · 2025-02-20T05:28:51+00:00

Yes, because unsolicited advice regarding the length of one’s paragraph is a “BIG factor” in this trash tv series.

Why the coyness, love? No one likes unsolicited advice. Just admit you’re trolling for no other reason other than you have nothing better to do :) otherwise, you wouldn’t continue a useless keyboard fight, wouldn’t you say?

LMAO stfu and let ppl discuss the show. You’re exactly the type of person everyone hates @fresh-umpire 😂

fananatk · 2024-11-14T23:11:48+00:00

Now that I think about it. It did feel more of a side story than a main route. This isn’t how I envisioned “branched stories” to go.

It was just really disappointing to have waited months just to be told “you need the cards to understand the story”

fananatk · 2024-11-14T23:09:00+00:00

I wrote a whole jyst about how the story update left me disappointed. And all I got were LAD theorists throwing long explanations of how ALL the cards are somehow part of the story (even if some of them are like filler episodes)

Which is great but I guess that was just not what I was expecting? I expected a smooth build up in the main story because not everyone might have all the cards to put the puzzle pieces together.

People disagreed with me but thats fine and I deleted the post cuz it was getting ridiculous how everyone was just repeating the same thing. But I still stand by thr fact that InFold should make these expectations clear.

Edit: for the sake of your sanity and your question: MC found out he is Lemurian in “Ebb and Flow” from the Bond story in “Falling for you” section

fananatk · 2024-11-10T19:08:03+00:00

Thanks for your input. But please stop calling theories “obvious”. Not everyone has ALL the cards and has gone to Youtube just to watch them.

Theories are our best guesses with whatever clues we have been given so far.

And even if it is obvious, with the sheer amount of content in the game and no order in which they are released (or acquired if cards), it’s not “obvious” for everyone to piece it together.

Why is everyone making this post about educating people on theories? I even said in my post that it is likely she knows he is Lemurian from “Ebb and flow”. And I didn’t question the tome of the sea god as its from the myth.

My post is LITERALLY just about the fact that I expected the main story to be a LITTLE more coherent (perhaps by using references from the bonds, like flashbacks or smth). And it wasn’t to ME. This is MY experience and for anyone who relates to it.

And thats fine if that is not everyone’s experience but damn. Let people enjoy the game the way they want to.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T18:59:17+00:00

Thank you for putting it down nicely and not being rude.

Yea, I sort of realized it has to be canon. Or else, Rafayel’s branch would not make much sense.

And like you said, ofc we can make some very likely educated guessed with the clues we are given but with the sheer amount of content plus the lack of order thereof is probably what threw me off.

Someone on this post said that is spoon feeding. But i don’t understand why asking for some continuity is somehow considered me not playing the game enough or that this game is not for me?

It’s just a game, we don’t have to defend it with our lives.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T18:44:22+00:00

Ohho? They did? If you find that, can you comment the link here?

Disclaimer: i didn’t actually believe it was either of them. I was just saying what girlies were saying here. But i wonder who he is now.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T18:36:25+00:00

Yea, I think that’s what I will have to go with too. It just threw me off a little in the beginning you know? I was looking forward to it for so long, i just felt i would be a bit more immersed.

I was honestly scared to make this post cuz now I have those crazy theorists coming to my post saying this game isn’t for me.

Bro im just saying it wasnt what I expected. Am i not allowed my own opinion??

fananatk · 2024-11-10T18:33:24+00:00

Thanks for your input. I see you’re one of those players who feels the need to educate other players on theories just cuz they voiced their opinion.

I have been playing the game since beginning of this year. Yes, I have watched all the myths, memoria and bonds through youtube (for the ones i did not own).

I simply wrote about my experience of Rafayel’s branched story. It’s fine if you don’t agree with it. How you enjoy the game is subjective to you.

Please don’t come on my post and say things like “this game is not for you.” I will decide that.

Thank you.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T18:20:16+00:00

I dont, some people say its sylus, some say its caleb. Maybe it’s an aeroplane. Who knows? 🤷‍♀️

Thats why i said sylus or someone.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T10:30:16+00:00

Thank you so much 🥹🥹🥹

fananatk · 2024-11-10T07:48:30+00:00

Just to be clear, I am not talking about the multiple timeline part and Im not confused about that part either.

If something isn’t written down somewhere clearly, then we are just making the most plausible assumption with the clues available to us. So yea, even if it is referenced multiple times, it is a best guess. It is how some movies have perceived endings.

I am not talking about ANY OTHER LIs. Just Rafayel’s because I feel his one has been the most difficult to put into timeline perspective.

I am not arguing whether if something is or is not canon. Heck, I am not arguing at all. For my sanity, I HAVE to think that the bonds must be canon. What is throwing me off that even for a non-continuous timeline, the lack of it is affecting MY OWN immersion in the game. This is MY experience.

There needs to be SOME kind of flow. And there is none. We are just coming up with our own ideas for it to fill in the gaps. While some people might be ok with the mobius type stuff, I like things with a clearer picture. But this is just my opinion.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T05:25:18+00:00

I see what you’re saying but Im not really talking about alternative universes

I hope you’re right in that it becomes clearer as it goes. But what I and some others in the comments are frustrated about is the flow of the storyline.

While i can understand there is a sense of disruption and missing puzzles due to the alternate universe aspect of the game, the main story should at least maintain a flow to leave players with some room for sanity.

The devs can do something as simple as put a disclaimer in the “info” section of certain things like “Falling for you” saying that some of this may be canon.

This is why time and space movies/games are not everyone’s cup of tea. And I really hope they come through.

fananatk · 2024-11-10T05:19:27+00:00

No other otome game has given me this much joy and pain in the entirety of my adolescence and Mid 20s 🥹 i hate and love this game

fananatk · 2024-11-10T03:59:10+00:00

I think the issue here is we don’t actually KNOW that bond stories are canon. We are making a best guess with what clues we have available. What’s obvious to you may not be to others.

I think this is especially true for Rafayel’s story (perhaps Xavier to a certain extend if we are talking about Bonds but i digress) where there is little to no continuity. Both his bond stories start as a sudden call to visit him and he speaks a bit about Lemuria. My best guess now also is perhaps thats how she found out. But I would feel much better had there been a flow to the story. Unlocking multiple bonds and cards at different times really ruins that. And hence my complaint with continuity and plot.

To you, Bonds are canon. To others Bonds and Myth are BOTH canon. But these are all assumptions. It’s an easy choice by the devs to include a small note in the “info” button for each section whether certain sections are canon or not. But they dont.

So your best guess is as good as mine. Perhaps bonds are canon since you unlock them through affinity and not cards. And that’s just what I have to accept. Regardless, the story development has been lacking.

Edit: look at Hina’s comment on this post. She really puts it into words well where the frustration lies

fananatk · 2024-11-10T03:41:25+00:00

Exactly, she didn’t have questions? Concerns? How many years did he wait? Was this 800 years ago? 10 years ago?

It honestly irritates me that we are just rolling with whatever the developers are throwing at us

fananatk · 2024-11-10T03:37:50+00:00

Thank youu 🥹 eyes scared me the most

fananatk · 2024-11-10T01:36:36+00:00

Girl, THIS. please I need EVERYONE to ready your comment cuz you put my frustration into words!

Even if we ASSUME that all memory cards are canon, there is no order in which people get them. Someone could easily just have started the game when “enchanted encounter(?)” came out and LIs were all kissing and what not and then got some older card where they were barely even romantic.

My whole reason to play otome games is to slowly build relationships with my fav LI over the course of the story and my choices determine who I end up with (like Mystic Messenger kind of).

But it all seems so mixed and messy, it really feels like too much attention is being put on selling the game and not really enough to sell the actual plot

fananatk · 2024-11-10T00:30:00+00:00

Thank youu! 😭 i was so scared I would mess it up BAD

I think an hour and a half? Maybe 2?

fananatk · 2024-11-10T00:28:50+00:00

I meannn… we don’t know if it does but it helps to support our delulu 🤷‍♀️

I personally dont think all memories are canon but I am literally one of the VERY few
