played it after digging up a Chinese copy, and being one of my early VNs, left me sleepless for nights pondering over the implications the plot twist meant for the first half of the story.

Eh, eh, no need to be upset. Fal's route was quite tedious with all the food and trattorias, but it was only a long setup for the twist.
Lise's route? Darn, it's supposed to make you feel good and warm your heart.
Torta route? I don't even remember how it went, but hey, Al Fine makes up for that.

As for the "true" route... well, I was a tad bit disappointed.

Anyway, this VN has no good ends, ever.

You know how you can put a cup in ice water without a problem but the cup will break if you heat it up before putting it in the water? That's what Lise's route makes me think of.

>>8575703
for the "main" story though, it's not so much about the routes individually but more of what they contribute to the overall picture (okay, maybe not the routes so much but how the three big twists put things into perspective).

So lets take Phorni's route into consideration. We learn that Arietta is actually Phorni, which means Arietta is well aware of what her twin sister is trying to do behind her back, yet she doesn't do anything but offer her best wishes to whatever decision the MC makes. Damn well kept me up all night getting my mind wrapped around the idea. And, of course, the minor twist that the the rain is all in the MC's head, which means for almost the entirety of the game, people are just playing along with your autistic impulses. It is actually pretty scary when you think about it.

>> No.8575738

>>8575703
Phorni's route is just an omake. All the mysteries are solved by the time you finished Torta's.
Phorni's route is the happy fairy tale ending to make you finish the game on a high note.

That's good because all the other ends have something depressing in it.

Same here. But, those abrupt discoveries and brilliant guesses Chris makes during Phorni's route, that's just a rush for the finish line, which kind of tainted the whole things.

Also, please teach me how to use spoilers. Where I come from, it's just like **this** or %%this%%, but honestly, 4chan...

Phorni's route implies all the other girls remain unhappy, since they presumably all have a crush on Chris. Well, I'm exaggerating, but you catch my drift, don't you.

In Ritsuko Okazaki's version of "I'm always close to you", there's one line that's different from the SR version.

Phorni version:
>今がすべてと ちゃんと知っていたはずなのに
>I should've known that now is everything.

Ritsuko version:
>今がすべてと そう思って生きてみるの
>I try to keep living with the belief that now is everything.

Ritsuko Okazaki died soon after composing for Symphonic Rain.

Oh, Symphonic Rain... It's so nice to see a thread of it. It was my second VN, but I have some sentimental value put into it.
My favorite girl is Tortinita. I actually found her pretty "meh", until I learned the truth of what was happening. I absolutely loved playing as Torta. For some reason, I also loved discovering the truth about the rain.
