Ah, yes, I agree with you. I wasn't trying to say that the MC should be uncomfortable or stressed in Cove's company. I also like how comfortable they are with each other. I just think that it would be nice if the description of the hug was different depending on relationship between Cove and MC. It would feel like choosing the type of relationship with Cove really makes a difference in gameplay. Also, I think that hugging your friend and your crush feels very different, even if you know your crush for a long time. The heart starts beating faster and there's this funny feeling in your belly. At least in my experience, haha :) Sorry if what I've written before is confusing. English is not my first language.
I'm absolutely obsessed with Our Life and after playing the extended demo I'm even more in love. Still, I have some concerns. It's obvious that romance is an important part of this game. And I think that there's not enough descriptions of how Cove makes the main character feel.
For example, at the end of the demo we have a choice to hug Cove. However, we don't really know how the MC feels about hugging him. It almost seems like this hug doesn't make them feel anything special. It bothers me a little. If the MC has a crush on Cove then it should be shown that they feel nervous/shy/their heart starts beating faster, and so on. Also, it’s a little strange that description of the hug is the same when the MC and Cove have a crush on each other and when they’re only friends. The blush on Cove’s face is the only difference. To give another example, when people tease Cove about liking MC we can see that he’s obviously embarrassed. But the MC doesn’t seem to have any reaction and I think that it would be more realistic if they were blushing too.
I remember that at the beginning of Step 2 the text says that the MC’s heart starts beating faster at the sight of Cove. I like it! This is exactly what I’m talking about! We need more descriptions like that. We need to know that Cove makes the MC’s heart go crazy. It makes the romance feel more real and natural. But I’m aware that it’s only a demo and that a lot of things will be added later. I just wanted to share my suggestions with you ^^
