I don't feel like writing a huge review because I plan on making videos about this whole series one day anyways. So for now I'll just say that I really dig a lot about this game, there's a lot of characters and smaller stories/ideas (Caim & Angelus, Eris, Urick, and especially Legna) that shine a lot. It's just the whole game with all the endings doesn't come together how it really should. There are moments where you can tell this game was still written by Sawako Natori, and they're great. Ending A and B each have a lot to say about violence, and how we use it as a tool at the cost of others and/or ourselves, but holy fuck Ending C just drops that for one of the most contrived endings I've ever seen in a game. It's disappointing that the game ends like that...but after all, Ending A is the only one with a Novella anyways (which is phenomenal) I'd say definitely don't skip it as it's still a valuable part of the series with some of my favorite scenes and moments of the series contained within, even with it's flaws there's a lot to appreciate here.
