I am so sad, MLQC is shutting down

I've played it briefly during the pandemic, and the story was very great (although I do think it is a bit over the top lol). Gavin was my favorite alongside Kiro. The game wasn't the best but good enough for players like me to like and get attached to the characters

It was very obvious that it wouldn't get as much money as it did before LADS. But to the point of closing down? That was a surprise. I hope my fellow players can grieve, because I've been there many times đź«‚

(using tag OtomeGame even though it is not an otome for the visibility)

No way... the oldest LI in an upcoming #joseimuke game called Project V is... my age

Am I getting old???? But I think that was to be expected since it is an idol game

STORY

In the Phoenix Kingdom, there is a man known as the Corpse Killer.

A duke attempted to usurp the country using an imposter of his daughter. A necromancer who once warred with the Phoenix Clan lurks in the shadows.

Wilhelm, a new Knight of the Royal Guard, becomes entwined with investigations into the forces working to oppose king and country. He is assigned to the personal guard of Master Alchemist Topherf, a descendant of the Serpent Clan.

Together, they must understand the history of the Phoenix Kingdom, two immortal races, and the body of a young duchess kept suspended at the moment of her death.

Wherever the pair go, a deep fate awaits them…

KEY FEATURES

  • A Unique World to Explore
    Set in a 19th-century-inspired low fantasy world, the history of the world has been shaped by two ancient tribes: the Phoenix Clan, whose members die and resurrect from the ashes every 500 years, and the Serpent Clan, who attained immortality through the use of forbidden magic and science. The Serpents once used the bodies of the other races, including those of Phoenixes, in their immortality research. The Phoenixes retaliated against those crimes, and the kingdom’s history still rings with the echoes of their war.
  • Bad Ends are Not the End
    Reaching an unfortunate ending is not a failure in this game, but a thread in the grand narrative. Looking behind the curtain, or from the eyes of the story’s mastermind, a bad ending still reveals a truth about the world. These explorations of the world span over 10,000 words. Using the information found behind the bad endings, you can find the path to the golden ending and understand the needs of all the characters.

    Bad ends offer the chance to loop back into the normal game, allowing you to focus on the story without going through tedious replays.

  • Sparkling, Faceted Characters
    Inspired by fairy tales, the supporting cast range from a newly-reborn immortal and the twisted Phoenix obsessed with him, the gender-bending alchemist with secrets to spare, and the innocently cruel girl finally free to explore the world. Every character of the story has a deep backstory and is entwined in complex webs of relationships that colour every word they say. The characters’ inner lives are revealed through the story, the bonus unlockable tips, and the talented cast of voice actors.
