"Song of Saya", "Euphoria", "Katawa Shoujo", "Maggot Baits", "Onii-Kiss"...

... are all visual novels that have infinitely more artistic value than this hipster trash.

Truth hurts, but it also shall set you free, honey.

After playing trough this wannabe Monogatari VN I can't agree more, Saya's writing is far more superior. Too bad my refund request probably gonna be rejected.

Dies Irae is one my faves. Have yet to see another VN beat it or it's spinoff, though some have come close.

Ok I need to ask

I actually couldn’t finish that anime. It was an incompressible mess. I was bored and confused

Is the anime just an offensively bad adaptation? Because I see everyone praising the VN and I just don’t get it. How different is it?

The anime adaption wasn't good, especially since it adapted the 3rd out of 4 routes. Meaning it presumes that you know things from routes 1 and 2.

It usually wouldn't make much sense to start 60% through a story. Especially one as long as Dies irae. It was crowdfunded, so more made for existing fans than to try and bring in new ones I guess.

If memory serves, it had some good graphics from time to time, and a less good translation+a lack of information for new folks. (Also the initial articles Crunchyroll did for it were a joke, they had to be re-translated lol.)

I love Dies irae, but tbh I barely remember the adaptation of it. There is no guarantee it won't bore you, though. The prose is quite purple, so if you don't enjoy that or chuuni stuff it might be super boring.

the adaptation was solely crowfunded to be a complement to the VN so stick to the VN then watch the anime as a fun bonus

Sure is, and The Song of Saya is one of the best horror visual novels in existence!

[Amygdala]

Song of Saya is amazing (if uncomfortable), and the writer seems like a prick, but I can hardly blame a guy for bouncing off Song of Saya, a game where some guy is lobotomised into killing his family, rapes a girl, and then is murdered and eaten by another guy lmao

On Necrobarista, it's alright, the DLC Walking to the Sky is much, much better than the main game. Haven't played the other DLC and don't want to rebuy the game on PC so who knows

[Doctor Dementor]

Necrobarista is written by a jealous ♥♥♥♥ who got mad that cult japanese VN who are more popular and successful are proposed along his lame vn on the store because they have themes that offend his dirty ass , i hate when some indie devs think they are better simply because of the little exposure they got , there is a limit between not liking something and disrespecting/judging bith the fan and other dev work

I understand, you are from a prison colony. I bet your government would put you into concentration camp like they did to all those indigenous people, if you were honest about liking Вreasts/Вutts.
