I too want to discuss Ever17. But I'll settle for Umineko.

Honestly, I think it crammed too much info for one story, I have trouble remembering most of it. The ending truly was garbage, that I do remember. And Bernkastel and Erika were best characters once Beatrice lost her edge.

>tfw of all the possible masterminds that could have been behind everything, they had to go for one of the most obvious
When it was brought up that Beatrice didn't have to be someone that actually looked like Beatrice I was pumped for it to turn out to be Hideyoshi or Gohda, but no such luck.

Battler is an unreliable narrator. Beatrice/Shannon/Kanon is a guy with a Schrodinger's dick. And the Battler bullshit at the end makes the red truth completely useless so as far as we know everyone could still be alive just living with fake aliases. Will is the true hero of the story and gets to fuck the best trap of the story.

What am I supposed to do with all the tears i've been storing, anon?

>>381546779
>Narcissu
It was good, but nothing more.
>Clannad
Rewrite and Little Busters are better Key.

>with that horrific pacing

>>381546931
Endings are what sticks around in a person's mind years after the play the game. Besides, the "boring scenes" actually make the payoff better once you understand them with a new perspective

>>381545179
I don't really like the overall experience but Chapter 1 is seriously an amazing hook for a visual novel and probably the best thing I've read from this genre as far as setting up a premise and suspending my belief. Super great mystery story.

>>381546852
I know Rewrite and Little Busters are better Key. That's why I said Clannad. Key a shit.

>>381545179
The only good part of umineko ended up being the discussion as it was being released.
What a piece of shit with one of the worst solutions ever.

A Steins;Gate thread then. What do you think about the new Switch version?

Go back to your general

Get some taste.

>>381547015
Episodes 1 and 3 are fucking GOAT. I will never forget Episode 1 ending with Dead Angle, that feeling of confusion and mindfuck was amazing.

I mean, name a visual novel that actually has good pacing. It's a problem with the whole medium

only if you play it with the original sprites

>Zero Escape
>good pacing

Literally skipping from one ending to another breaks all the pacing,the third game was the worst offender of all.

No voices so no.

I was so into the "When They Cry" series. I loved Umineko and Higurashi so much. I never read the VN for Higurashi but Umineko's was top tier.

How did it all end? Never read past episode 5.

>>381548570
Shannon was kanon was beatrice and it was all DID by some tranny without genitals and for some reasons personalities count as people and can die and that's how you get around every murder in the game.

>>381548570
Read it yourself. Some hate it, some are ok with it, some love it.

>>381548702
Is there a place I can read the synopsis? I don't really watch anime or even play video games anymore. I'm kind of just sticking around in the post-e3 hype and was sick of going on /fa/.

>>381549110
Well, anon before me gave you an answer. Far from a full one, but it's the truth. There is also a popular Rosatrice theory.

>>381548570
Shanon and Kanon are separate personalities of a single person, "they" are also Beatrice, and the real culprit.
All the red truths that really locked you in, for example Eva-trice's web from Ep3, were avoided by defining Shkanon's personalities as separate "people" that can also somehow "die". It's complete bullshit and utterly retarded.

>>381550086
damn. so they LOST'd. Started out cool and didn't know how to finish it.

>>381550698
If you reread it becomes pretty obvious it was planned since chapter 1

>>381551720
This, I reread it twice, with different friends, finding more hints with each time.

I never knew I wanted this until now.

Kangoku Senkan?

>>381551843
You don't even need to reread the whole thing, just first half of Episode 2.

>>381545179
So YU-NO?

It was great, probably best conceptual execution of time travel mechanics.

>>381545179
It's a Sound Novel.

That's all it takes for a witch to break into your closed room with the intent to perform the first twilight and sacrifice you.
Why don't you believe in magic?
