I never liked E17's slice of life so the first routes weren't that enjoyable for me. Also, Sora's route was just painful to read, something that didn't happen to me in SR. However, I remember forgetting about all its flaws (except the deus-ex-machina, maybe) when I got to Coco's route, so I'd still say it's a really good game.

It has its problems (also, the anime didn't help), but it's good. Also, Higurashi strong point are the characters, in which succeeded.

Nothing happened in her path? Come on, Takeshi gets 'raped' by Tsugumi, Sora goes yandere and the ending was just as emotional as Tsugumi's I'd say that's pretty damn eventful and memorable, I honestly can't remember any significant Tsugumi specific event happening in Tsugumi's route aside from the last minutes. I also liked Sora's ignorance and interest in human emotions and her coming to terms with her feelings for Takeshi and the conflict with her self, or should I say programming. Also, Tsugumi, a better love interest? She's just tsun tsun the rest of the route then suddenly goes dere dere towards the end. I'm not saying she's a worse character, it's just that her romance with Takeshi isn't all that interesting.
