Some sound effects do sound out of place in Elite, likely due to them being carried over from the original visual novel without being updated for the new visual format.
The gameplay here is pretty standard for a visual novel, though it’s spiced up through the “Phone Trigger” system, which allows the player to read and reply to emails.
The interface has been redesigned for ease of use, offering a smoother progression system and a more intuitive menu structure.
