Disappointed in sylus’s standard myth after reading caleb’s
Warning- vague spoilers for both sylus's and caleb's standard myths and the main story
I just finished reading caleb’s standard myth "Lucid Dream" and it shed a lot of light on his behavior and motivations in the main story. It even expanded on the lore by explaining the toring chip and the developers behind it. In contrast, sylus’s standard myth, "Captivating Moment", while great as a standalone story, doesn’t contribute much to the main plot. It’s essentially “A Day in the Life of Sylus, Onychinus Leader.” While seeing sylus from this perspective was essential to understand his character better and beyond just being Onychinus's leader, I think his standard myth would've worked better as a bond story.
As a sylus main, I can’t help but feel disappointed with how Paperfold is handling him, especially given his lack of base content. It’s surprising that caleb’s standard myth revealed so much right from his debut, while over 6 months later, we still hardly know about sylus in the current timeline. The OG LIs’ standard myths also added significantly to the game’s world-building but sylus’s didn’t. It makes me wonder if Paperfold don't know what they're doing with sylus's story or if they’re holding back because his content is central to the overarching plot.
I understand that this game is a mobile otome game so they can't reveal everything all at once but man am I still disappointed. I hope the next big update contains more info about sylus or includes his story branch. I enjoy the limited banners just fine but they're not all that substantial and are even sometimes little more than filler. There is a serious lack of equality between sylus and the other 4 LIs and it's becoming more and more apparent with each update.
I shared this on the official subreddit but thought I’d post it here too in case people feel more comfortable being open about it here
