Did you g🐻uys play this game with your displa🍰ys turned off?

The majority of this is not even interpretation or subtext, but very clear text (for example, w⛦hy Maelle only remakes your party, why Painted Alicia was burnt, why Renoir didn't "send the Canvas away", the literal fact that Alicia's and Clea's scene in the "real" world was a flashback, etc.). Did you get too much into the game's OST and didn't listen to the dialogue, or did you just avoid reading the Journals and the characters interaction❀s?
