“The main belief of the game is duality and offers different points of view, from the story to the end of the game, therefore the dual reality game is one of the foundations of The way. The game doesn’t appear with dual reality mechanics all the time, as players can expect to play around 33% of the game, while the rest of the game takes place in a single reality, which is the real world. or in the spiritual world. “
