no they weren't

I suppose not.

Symphonic Rain is the VN that actually made me cry a lot.

I cried during other VNs before but the emotion was a mix between the story and other emotions popping out making a whirl of emotions. But with Symphonic Rain I was totally focused in the game and nothing else and I cried A LOT. Actually I still cry when I hear the songs, mainly because I remember my experience playing it and all. Call me a faggot but I have no regrets.

...Faggot.

No but seriously, I agree with you, especially with Phorni/Ari's route.

>>5994326

But that route was all butterflies and rainbows.

>>5994336
That's exactly my point. After Ari died in ALL the other routes it was nice to see her get a happy ending. Besides, she was cute as a fairy.

Listening to Ritsuko Okazaki's songs after you learn what happened to her and paying attention to the lyrics is really touching.

I haven't read Symphonic Rain yet. Will it make me depressed or is there a light at the end of the tunnel?

>>5994360
There is.

>>5994360

In my case it made me depressed and happy. The routes all left a feeling of sadness and happiness.

Ok cool. What I don't get is, the wiki says it's only 78.5% done. What's not finished?

>>5994379
It's fully translated. Ignore that.

>>5994285
Agreed, the two characters are in completely different art styles.

>>5994360
I didn't think it was all that depressing. Mostly because the main character seems rather stoic through all of it.

>>5996227
Stoic? I think he would have tried to rip Grave apart if he didn't have to worry about Lise at the end of her route. And that's just one example from one route.

He didn't exactly seem all that stoic to me.

>>5996286
Well I meant mostly how he deals with the Ari/Torti stuff and his repressed memories. Lise's route was mostly forced drama imo.

>>5996412
I more found that to be outside influences effecting emotions. He doesn't really feel anything until he actually SEES Ari in a coma/dead at the end of Torta and Phorni's routes because it's all so surreal to him. He even says it in his monologue several times, that he can't really wrap his mind around what's happening.

Kind of like how a relative dies, and it takes a while for you to realize that they're really dead.

the hacking was never properly finished but it's perfectly playable in it's current state
