That's Ending [A] then

OK - just finished The A route - I refrained from dropping to easy and I agree that once you get used to dodging and you have enough recovery items the fights aren’t really an issue.

Really enjoyed the first play through and looking forward to seeing how it expands with subsequent plays - one question - do the other routes take as long to play? I had heard they’re a bit shorter (which suits me) but it’d be good to know.

I also ordered the soundtrack CD from Play-Asia - absolutely amazing stuff.

The cd soundtrack is amazing, picked it up last year in Tokyo - don't think you will get the bonus cd however as it was a time limited thing. I don't even want to tell you what the bonus cd is as you're only on route A.

The second route is the second longest. Maybe a couple of hours shorter although there are also more sidequests to do. They do get shorter as you go on.

I’m now on route C - I need a bit of advice as I’ve nearly just snapped my pad in half with frustration...

Yeah, that bit was really shit. Can't really remember the route, but you have to do that dash jump towards the end so need to get there in decent time.

Managed it second time, which is good because I might've given up if I'd had to keep trying.

It was the bit right after that which did me in. Then I got a chance to buy stuff and it turned out I had a ton of chip upgrades available, allowing me past the 40 limit. Now I am invincible.

I finished this and I have to say it didn't really do all that much for me.

Lots of cleverness but I never properly felt hooked at any point. If you keep pulling the rug out from under people eventually they'll just lie down. I feel like I get what it's going for but it just didn't land for me. Perhaps knowing stuff about it going in ruined it for me. Oh well. Don't regret my time with it at least.

A solid 7 in Edge money, or maybe an 8 because of the music and some of the humour

Think I preferred hacking to the fighting overall. A little less repetitive perhaps or just a welcome change of pace.

Would also probably say that the game was spoiled a bit by knowing too much beforehand, even though I didn’t really know that much and no one had actually spoiled anything in particular. Was just the general effect of reading about how amazing things were going to happen later, so nothing could really be a surprise. Would’ve been good to play it when it was new or before coming to this thread.

Finished C/D/E - Aside from some niggly sequences and a bit too much padding I absolutely loved it - tempted to start again so I can go and do all the upgrades / side stuff

Have I done it right? Tried 2 ways to post the message video from Yoko Taro.

I did better with the video it seems!

Yep Tempy told me too, but I still forget as I post quickly while also ‘working’. (I only ever post from my phone though so use the text icon option thing rather than having ctrl-shift-v etc)

An unfortunately harsh opening. Get past that bit you died on and you’ll be fine from then on.

Cheers guys
