i dont think i will ever get past the first chapter of this game despite trying multiple times over the years since i was like 16 (im 21)

2020

I did NOT buy this game. Some guy I don't talk to anymore bought it for me and every day I thank god I did not spend a penny on it. I'm usually a turn-based fan, but this gameplay is just not fun or satisfying in the slightest. The emotions mechanic just made it feel like Pokemon but without any of its redeeming qualities (getting to see my favorite little creature on screen :3). I beat it with no problem but it was so boring and easy I considered using cheats just to read through the story. Which brings me to my next point that I think the game would have benefitted more if it was just a visual novel. The psychological horror element could have been so much stronger if that was the case because I wouldn't have had to play through such a boring game. The soundtrack was good, too, but I don't think I've gone back to listen to anything aside from My Time, but I don't really count that because I actively listened to that song long before this game's release. Overall this game did not add anything to my life aside from a little giggle when I see a gif of basil turning around with a stupid caption over it. I genuinely don't think you will ever find someone who hates this game more than I do.

2021

this vn genuinely changed my life and i have no idea if it's for better or for worse

volver a comenzar is the best song ive ever heard in my 21 years of existing

by far the most fun main cast ive ever seen in an rpg.. i adore this game more than my newborn child

this game has my favorite set of rivals to date, a fantastic ost, and amazing multiplayer (conceptually), but its dragged so far back by being ugly as all shit and running horribly. also the raids are so dysfunctional and impossible to enjoy. who the hell wants to sit there for like 2+ minutes completely unable to act

the story was great but fell super flat at the end with jill just not being there for no reason at all. gameplay was also super stale until shiva came along and made it really fun

this game pissed me off beyond belief but the story was so good. i had to watch all the postgame stuff on youtube bc i couldnt put myself through playing the game past the three routes

i havent even finished this but likulau is hot as fuck so it gets 5 stars

game is fun but 90% of the playable characters are just clones of others with more or less effects in their animations. also the roster is horrible.

this is actually the worst game of all time and kodaka should feel bad for making it

don't care + i can experience childlike wonder + let's kill god
