A bit cliche at times and a bit hard to get immersed in at times, but overall it was good. I think it wants to be more scifi but the setting ended up contemporary so it has this weird vibe of like not rly believing society would be like that. If it was able to lean into the scifi aspect a tiny bit more for worldbuilding itd be great
