In the near future, androids have become the way of the norm. Emotionless husks of metal have become a part of human society, much to the dismay of the boy. The robot he found at the dump site though, this one was different. It laughed, it cried, it smiled, it has dreams, just like a human… Lucy ~The eternity she wished for~ is a Visual Novel, about a boy and an android. You play as the boy, who faces decisions and moral dilemmas in this near-future world. This is a story that has touched many hearts and continues to have a strong impact on those who partake in this compelling journey. The original version of Lucy ~The eternity she wished for~ received high praise for its powerfully moving storyline, following its original release in Korea, 2010. This prompted a kickstarter project which would fund a remake of the visual novel, including its localization to English and Japanese.

I do indeed have depression how could you tell

Ah, sad robot girls...my weakness....

bought this once because it was the top-rated VN on steam, at least at the time. not really my thing, but if you like visual novels you'll probably enjoy this. i was expecting more from the narrative, hoping it'd do something new with the concept, but in the end it's all decently predictable. that's not bad per se, much of the game's runtime is spent on building the relationship between you and lucy, which is fine, just not my cup of tea. if you enjoy stories focused solely on one relationship dragged out to hell you might like it.

could have been cool if the protagonist was actually likeable and the story wasn't 5 seconds long

The story is too short and both the plot and the characters lack development imo, but it introduces some interesting ideas. Some Blade Runner references.

Easily one of the best visual novels i've ever read, with good emotional story, and memorable characters. I want to do this read a proper review treatment someday.
