I actually liked this game, even when I went in with very low expectations considering everyone was saying horrible things about it... turns out it's way better than I thought! I liked how Ellie's character developped, even if for the worse, because it shows how human she is. The ending wrecked me. I have to say I don't agree with one of the director's choices (look it up) but overall was not as bad as people made it out to be

I went back to unlocking all endings after I was done with Replicant and I have a few things to say. I am glad this game introduced me to this amazing franchise, its graphics and gameplay are astoundingly good for an introduction too... but Replicant wins when it comes to characters and storytelling, I am not saying the characters here weren't good, but everyone in Replicant was so memorable and left me emotionally scarred forever. 2B, 9S, theyre good characters but dont even have chemistry with each other! A2 is my favorite here, and her character seems to be one of the most interesting (out of MCs). Im not giving it 5 stars because of that... characters werent that interesting

Using this review to conflate my thoughts on the HC series: UNDERRATED MASTERPIECE. I had completely different theories and beliefs starting from ep 1, then it turned out to be something entirely different and unexpected. I loved how the characters and everything were fleshed out, especially relating to the MCs. This game made me extremely sad and I'll always remember it. Keeping an eye on the creator's new games!!!

So I finally got all endings and well. I do regret not playing this before Automata! But damn. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE I loved every single bit of it, all of the characters are loveable and worth remembering. The story, the graphics, the camera angles, THE MUSIC and different mechanics... it's impossible not to love this game even if you aren't into RPG. Even the novel bits were so beautifully written and sad, I just came to love this game way more than I imagined!
Play this game. Even if you played Automata first like I did, you'll even start noticing the similarities both in gameplay and story. PLAY THIS GAME!!!!! I will now let this consume my brain for weeks
