It’s like calling Danganronpa a school sim. Between changing your friends’ lives, talking to terminally ill patients and getting a politican elected, the social link systems in P3-5 were so melodramatic. Felt more like you were a guardian angel wandering the game world.
But some things are too bothersome to explain. I’d just give a sarcastic smile and move on.
So either six months of sleep paralysis or you experience six months of time in the instant that time returns, possibly mentally handicapping people from the sensation. Yeah, OP better go into hiding, anyone who survives will hunt them down - regardless of what they do.
