Everything negative said about this VN is probably true, but... the feels man...
In the end, I feel this is a beautiful, if twisted journey of one man's self doubt corrupting his vision, and the faults that lie therein. The action was exhilarating, the violence was gut wrenching, the plot was captivating, the music was moving, and the characters were intriguing. You can feel however you want about the story, it's definitely not for everyone, but it was deeply sorrowful and poignant for me.
