​If anyone says this VN is bad or the MC is terrible, don't listen to them. They're just Gigalomaniacs trying to realboot this delusion into your deadspot as reality. It's true that this isn't a traditional VN as it features an incredibly unconventional MC and a chaotic story where you will constantly mix delusions with reality itself. Takumi is antisocial, incredibly rude and intensely paranoid. But if we are being completely honest with ourselves, he is deeply relatable to a certain degree. Many people judge him harshly based entirely on his negative traits or his lowest points in the story. But is that really fair? If any of us hit absolute rock bottom, trapped in an inescapable nightmare, we would do questionable things too. To the people who say he isn't "worthy" of being a protagonist, I ask you this: life tells the best stories, and by that logic, we are all the main characters of our own lives. If your darkest, lowest, most pathetic moments were broadcast for everyone to judge, would you want to be on the receiving end of that verdict? I’m not so sure. But trust me: once you reach the true ending, the VN not only answers your questions, but it leaves you entirely satisfied. The journey might be over, but it will remain in your head, whether you're humming its earworm music or finally realizing how beautifully all the pieces of this complex puzzle fit together. I close my eyes... and pray. For the safety of the boy whose character is judged so harshly and for whom many people refuse to read this wonderful VN. I wish to live in a world where more people are open and accepting toward this MC and this story, so they can realize how lucky they are that the sky they're looking up at is blue. This is the delusion I wish for.

The main character is awful, and yet, it's precisely because he's so awful that he's so perfect. The first half of the story and perhaps even beyond that feels pretty slow, not gonna lie. But I think it's completely worth it in the end. Both on it's own, and as the basis of future Science Adventure VNs. It's a common suggestion to make sure you use the Committee of Zero patches for these games. I'm not completely sure how necessary this is because I haven't tried playing without the patch personally, but the patch apparently fixes annoying bugs and ALLEGEDLY has a "better translation". I can't speak on any of that because I have no frame of reference, but I figured I should mention it.

(Used the Committee of Zero patch, so I won't comment on translation. Heard it sucks balls.) CHAOS;HEAD NOAH is a hard sell, but one worth the effort of selling. This game might not have the mass appeal of Steins;Gate, having a specific audience in mind: Terminally online socially inept losers, like me and you (yes, you too). To start, the protagonist, Takumi, is an absolutely insufferable prick for just about all of the game's runtime. He is essentially the stereotypical shut-in otaku freak obsessed with MMO games, hentai, and message boards (he's literally me). Throughout the game, he doesn't get *much* better, but his circumstances will allow you to begin understanding him a bit more, fleshing him out as a flawed kid more than a rooftop basement dweller. The rest of the cast, is good, but unfortunately not outstanding. The game has a problem where the first half is heavily focused on Takumi, while the back half is left to develop the side cast, the heroines, "antagonists" (I'll get to that) in a limited timeframe. The detective story is fun, if a bit standard, and where most of the pov switches take place, at least during the common route. The heroines each get a specific character route, similar to other VNs, but with less(?) romance, and more hardcore trauma and lore. Some of the romances felt a bit forced, like they had to fit them in to market the girls, but it's really fine to just play them for the stories. I have no overall complaints with the cast, just a few issues with screentime distribution (two of the heroines I feel were done really dirty). The secondary antagonists are much cooler than the "main villain", who genuinely is just kind of lame. As for the plot, I really enjoyed it, almost no complaints. I came in playing Steins;Gate (out of order, I know), and expected another great story, albeit with a less polish due to this one being first. What I came out with was a freaky mind-bending psychological horror. The game having a focus on delusions makes what's actually real and happening much more impactful and tense, my favorite being a certain phone call scene. There are constant red-herrings that make you think you have the story figured out, just to flip it, or mess with your head, to the point where both the player and protagonist will develop trust issues with every other character. The endings... Fine. That's it. Not spoiling, but epilogues are sorely needed, the "true" ending not even having one. I will not consider the fandisc a real epilogue, since that's just straight up a different game (and not on steam). As for game mechanics, it's certainly a visual novel. You can read it with your eyes, whoever's eyes they may be. The delusion trigger mechanic is pretty cool on paper, but once you've seen one, you've essentially seen them all (with some cool exceptions). Green = fanservice, comic relief, or making up happy scenarios. Red = Horror scene, paranoia, or other characters getting real mean. The method to get to the routes is really, really boring. The text skip is blazingly fast, but you're forced to look back at every single delusion trigger, even ones that don't trigger an ending flag, essentially acting as random stop-signs (You'll have to replay the game many times, so trust me, it will annoy you on the fifth or so replay.) Audio design is great, and there are many great tracks as well, especially the opening and ending themes (Find the Blue absolutely rips). Art quality is good as well, feeling like a product of its time in a good way. In short, play this game. You are like 50% likely to get filtered by the protagonist's "qualities", but it's still worth a good try, especially if you're looking into playing the rest of the Science Adventure series (this one is required for just about everything not called Steins;Gate). - 8.5/10

Another good game with a poorly made and overpriced port. You'd think with the popularity of Steins;Gate, Spike Chunsoft would realise that they're sitting on a gold mine with the SciAdv series and actually put a bit of care into it. But why do that when you can pump out a turd for a quick buck and let the fans of the series fix it in your place. CoZ patch is necessary, unless you like reading stiff dialogue that's either poorly translated, or translated too literally. Only recommending because the story is really good, it's just a shame this is such a bad port.
