What an awesome story. The characters were very well done (I enjoyed Hyein's adventure through morality a lot). I'm a bit salty that Hyuk wasn't shown at the end - what is this Hyuk/Hyun discrimination?
Spoiler
I was a bit surprised by how many people died. The end felt a bit useless - if you were going to let Hyun live either way, why even bother with the large boss monster? Hyuk deserved to respawn too :((Graphic: Death, Death of parent, Child death, Violence, Suicidal thoughts, Blood, Body horror, and Bullying
