What I will NOT say about this game is any form of admonishment for its portrayal of an incestuous relationship. It is simultaneously true that depiction of this type should ideally be handled with care, but in the same token it is also true that incestuousness in Andy and Leyley is one decidedly portrayed as negative and not to be endorsed or repeated. To understand this is a fundamental component of media literacy.

What I WILL admonish this game for is its writing of Ashley. It is one thing to portray a female character as a controlling freak in a heterosexual relationship (which is already its own can of worms), but when you pair this with the emotional and frequently romantically charged whining of her diatribes in chapter 1, it comes off as nothing less than a stereotype of the 'crazy bitch' that is manipulative and erratic to no end while the angelic male of the situation is forced to comb through the abuse. It is a frankly disturbing portrayal of how codepency actually works and is extremely concerning to witness. The fact that she's supposed to be annoying only works to such an extent, especially considering that Andrew had been putting up with this almost 'psychosexual' behavior at the very least when they were both school-children. It's not just unrealistic that codependency necessarily happens like this, it's probably a harmful portrayal if viewed anywhere outside the lens of intentionally exaggerated sexual fantasy- Which is, from a random outsider's perspective, not entirely apparent.
