Actually, I think Lune and Sciel took the whole act III situation pretty well. I don't think I would recover so easily from finding out in one take that:

I live in a child's painting

I'm a side character in said painting

I accidentally enabled the end of the world

The strange girl from my neighborhood is a god

That emo guy I meet a few weeks ago is the most important guy in the world

I died once and there is nothing after.

Verso Dessendre: I painted funny paintbrush guys because I was a kid and wanted to have fun

Aline Dessendre: I painted Paris and humans as a facsimile of real life

one thing I really appreciate in the game is how it deals with Gustave's shutdown at the beginning. the fact Gustave doesn't say a word from the moment he gets separated from Maelle during the beach attack until the moment he meets Lune, how he doesn't bother with the lumina converter at all, and then the gun of course

But like, in another game he would have probably woken up and immediatly said something like "what happened? I need to find the others" (quest pop up) or had a dramatic breakdown immediatly on waking up, but no. he's silent, he's out of it, he's still in shock, going through the motions well enough to survive but he's not really processing. there are no unnatural little comments about the tutorials, no "oh a grapple point" or anything like that, and I really appriciate that. that the game allows us to marinate in the moment rather than pulling us away to do tutorializing
