Part 1: Messenger Database

Take note that we compiled the messages according to their respective delivery arrangement. We only included the conversation stuff the generally impacts your relationship with the characters (meaning we've skipped out on a lot of the other dialogue in order to minimize spoilers).

As you’d figure out when playing the game, there are instances where your preset answers would typically have the same context with different tones, or other times, there wouldn’t be really any consequences at all regardless of the answer you give. For instance, your first message from Stella (Ex), she’d tell you that she had a dream and you are prompted for 2 choices of reply: “Was it a good dream?” Or “Was it a nightmare?” regardless of your choice of reply, there wouldn’t be any consequences. Finally, there are instances too were the replies are a choice between a neutral one, and a deteriorating one.

Having said that, we’ve only listed those messages that particularly affect your relationship with the people in the game, as well as options from which you’d greatly benefit in. Keep in mind that these compilation of conversations can also spoil you of the concluding lore of the game, which might ruin the experience. Nonetheless, we’ve provided them for the times that you aren’t sure of what to reply to the characters, or if you’d want a cheat sheet of the answers in order to improve your relationship with your contacts.
