i enjoyed the music in hello charlotte ep 1. it feels melancholic and reflective. tracks like “vacant eyes” and “presence” hit differently. it creates a thoughtful, atmospheric mood, which i really like.

I absolutely think that chapter 1 and chapter 2 of hello charlotte are absolute trash, both games have an insufferable gameplay, I love when you have to repeat the same boring puzzle because you forgot to save and lost most of your progress. Also the story of both of them is really meaningless, by themselves they are completely boring, and plain. How these games got overwhelming positive reviews is beyond me, because these games by themselves just suck.

That being said, chapter 3 does something really fun, which is probably a retcon, tho I am not sure. Funnily enough, this retcon was for the good because, I actually liked chapter 3. The main reason for this is that it makes both chapter 1 and 2 completely meaningless, there is 0 reason to play them. Yet again, chapter 3 is actually interesting, and the story suddenly introduces a lot of meta elements that make the story more interesting instead of the plain chapter 1 and 2. Moreover, execution hour is really fun!!!

In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend both chapter 1 and 2, as I think they are completely skippable, at least the OST and art are good, and they are basically free, so yeah.

第一部的评测：
刷短视频，感觉挺有意思就来了~整体玩下来，没有感觉到恐怖元素诶...也许这只是第一部，所以很温柔？游戏内容多为轻微解谜，还有一些地图的探索。

剧透警告！

剧情有点意识流，很多地方的设定，仅仅是设定而已，让人意识到这个世界不太正常。主角在家探索后，来到了地下室，帮助照看菲利克斯。睡醒后，发现他不见了！于是主角经过三只小熊的童话故事...找到菲利克斯，和他继续寻找真相。可惨淡的结局先一步到来...于是...我们决定扭转这一切。终于，电视世界的真相被揭晓，“神”依托于主角身体，带着他们安全回到了”现实”。故事也就此拉下帷幕，留下屏幕外的“操纵者”一脸茫然。

哈哈，菲利克斯进去的理由居然是想写论文，看来他急着出成果，不然毕不了业了T_T

总之，第一部多是一些设定与背景介绍吧，故事不是特别完整，关于神的阐释，我也觉得不是很新颖。也许我应该继续玩后续？全流程大约2小时，祝你玩得开心~

第二部的评测：
这一部更多地补全了第一部的一些设定，很多人物的背景故事更加明朗了。

在逃出电视机世界几年后，主角身体健康情况越来越糟糕了...同时，还需要去学校里学习，进行“必要的社交”。她在学校认识了一位被霸凌者C，觉得他非常特别，于是开始一系列的日常，解谜，探险，最后为了拯救他，而（每个结局算个平行宇宙？）与神谕融合...成为不可名状，可靠自己还是做不到...永恒的无力，亦或是献祭自我，都不是屏幕外的我想看到的啊。

很讽刺的是，游戏里的“好结局”，看上去很美好，其实是两个人服用药物后，意识彻底湮灭的幻觉，我还真以为主角飞升了呢...C，也就是文森特，原来只是在用幻想逃避现实的普通人啊。npc的前后反应也很细节：一开始，大家都夸赞女主，而与文森特出去被抓回来后，大多数npc对主角的话语都变得尖锐刺耳。作者应该很想讽刺这种超级集体意识规训，抹除个人特性的情况吧。安丽，女主的“好朋友”，到底是以什么姿态与主角相处的呢？她明明非常倾慕女主，为主角的离去伤心落泪...但又会伤害女主，言辞激烈。这种扭曲的感情，在我看来，绝对不是真正的喜欢，而是一些占有欲和私念的集合（重力展开！）。有点蛛丝马迹的地方是，似乎女主看到的世界，和同学眼中的世界是不一样。安丽似乎一直在忍受女主关于超立方，雨伞人...等游戏里经常出现，却又似乎只有玩家和主角知道的讯息。也许她真的很想和女主做好朋友吧（感觉是百合..)！只是碍于太多复杂原因...但！伤害喜欢的人，是绝对不能被原谅的！

两部游玩下来，主角简直就是小天使啊！不管是语言，选择，行动，都特别温柔的那种。处处为他人着想，生怕别人受伤，总想着去拯救...但她对自己的生命却很漠视，会因为害怕麻烦别人，而不去看医生和吃药。没有他人的要求，就会无法行动。她似乎就是为了让大家开心，得到救赎而活的。过去的我，也有过相似的想法，只可惜现实世界没法试错，也不能读档重来，所以也就放弃了。我不禁思考，作为玩家的我，究竟扮演了一个怎样的角色？是故事的观察者？还是她的引导者呢...希望主角在第三部能迎来一个好结局吧。

关于神的部分，我的理解不是很深刻。“神谕”只是一个种族，他没有恶意，这幅模样是诞生就存在的，只是被人擅自期待，没有得到想要的结果，又被大肆抹黑与屠杀。这个意思是，神本就存在，只是没有人们想的那么厉害吗？把希望寄托在存在的事物上，而又因为不合期望而毁掉...这和现代互联网“造神”再“毁掉神”有点像啊。所以，不要擅自期待对吧？也是学到新东西了。关于文森特说的那个有神的世界，则是代表着天赋与能力造就的天堑般的阶级吧。尽管，这个故事是这个中二少年编的，骗到我了。

总之！第二部还是挺有意思的，深挖剧情，每个人都会有自己的理解！期待下一部给我的惊喜。游戏流程大约2.5小时，如果你不被解谜卡关的话（

Review of the first part:
I came to watch short videos and found them quite interesting. Overall, I didn't feel any horror elements while playing Perhaps this is just the first installment, so it's very gentle? The game content is mostly about solving minor puzzles, as well as exploring some maps.

Spoiler alert!

The plot has a bit of a stream of consciousness, with many places being just settings that make people realize that the world is not quite normal. After exploring at home, the protagonist went to the basement to help take care of Felix. After waking up, I found that he was missing! So the protagonist passed through the fairy tale of three little bears Find Felix and continue searching for the truth with him. The dismal ending arrived one step ahead So We have decided to reverse all of this. Finally, the truth of the television world was revealed, and the "God" relied on the protagonist's body to safely bring them back to "reality". The story came to an end, leaving the "manipulator" outside the screen looking bewildered.

Haha, Felix's reason for going in is actually to write a paper. It seems that he is in a hurry to produce results, otherwise he won't be able to graduate

In short, the first part is mostly about setting and background introduction. The story is not particularly complete, and I also think the interpretation of God is not very novel. Maybe I should continue playing later? The whole process takes about 2 hours. Have a great time~

The evaluation of the second part:
This part further completes some of the settings of the first part, and the background stories of many characters become clearer.

After escaping from the world of television for several years, the protagonist's physical health deteriorated At the same time, it is necessary to go to school to learn and engage in 'necessary socializing'. She met a bullied person named C at school and thought he was very special. So she began a series of daily activities, puzzles, adventures, and finally, in order to save him, she (each ending counts as a parallel universe?) merged with the oracle Becoming indescribable, reliable oneself still cannot be achieved Eternal powerlessness or self sacrifice are not what I want to see off screen.

It's ironic that the "good ending" in the game, which looks beautiful, is actually an illusion of two people completely losing consciousness after taking medication. I really thought the protagonist had flown up ..C， That's Vincent, an ordinary person who used fantasy to escape reality. The reactions of NPCs are also very detailed: at the beginning, everyone praised the female lead, but after being caught after going out with Vincent, most NPCs became sharp and harsh towards the protagonist's words. The author probably wants to satirize this kind of super collective consciousness discipline that erases individual characteristics. Anli, the female lead's' good friend ', in what way did she interact with the protagonist? She clearly admired the female lead very much and shed tears of sadness for her departure But it will also harm the female lead, with intense language. This twisted emotion, in my opinion, is definitely not a true liking, but a collection of possessiveness and selfishness (gravity unfolding!). There is a hint that the world seen by the female protagonist is different from the world seen by her classmates. Such information often appears in the game, but it seems to be known only by the player and the protagonist. Perhaps she really wants to be good friends with the female lead (it feels like Lily...)! Just due to too many complex reasons But! Hurting someone you like is absolutely unforgivable!

After playing both movies, the protagonist is like a little angel! Whether it's language, choices, or actions, they are all particularly gentle. Always considering others, afraid of others getting hurt, always thinking about saving them But she is very indifferent to her own life, and will not go to see a doctor or take medicine because she is afraid of troubling others. Without the demands of others, one cannot take action. She seems to live just to make everyone happy and receive redemption. In the past, I had similar thoughts, but unfortunately, in the real world, I couldn't make mistakes or start over from scratch, so I gave up. I couldn't help but wonder, as a player, what role did I play? Are you an observer of the story? Or is it her guide I hope the protagonist can have a good ending in the third installment.

My understanding of the part about God is not very profound. The 'Oracle' is just a race, without any malicious intent. This appearance existed from birth, but was eagerly anticipated by others without obtaining the desired results, and was widely smeared and slaughtered. Does this mean that God already exists, but not as powerful as people think? Placing hope on existing things, yet destroying it due to not meeting expectations ... It is a bit like the modern Internet "creating gods" and "destroying gods". So, don't expect anything without authorization, right? I also learned something new. Regarding Vincent's concept of a divine world, it represents a class like barrier created by talent and ability. Although this story was made up by this junior high school student and deceived me.

Anyway! The second part is quite interesting, delving deeper into the plot, everyone will have their own understanding! Looking forward to the surprise that the next installment will give me. The game process takes about 2.5 hours, if you don't get stuck in solving puzzles（
