Since I can't write a review for the entire story as they're split amongst 8, I give this review on the final one as all-encompassing for the 8 main games of the higurashi series. This is not a perfect story. But it is absolutely incredible. It's not selling itself as a means to an end, nor that there is a correct way to enjoy or perceive it. Instead it really does seem like a project for the soul, from a soul. Though I'm over 2 decades late, I nonetheless thank you for making this game.
the end of an era. after spending nearly 200 hours to complete all 8 chapters, I got so attached to the members, I was practically in the club itself. I didn't want it to ever end — but all good things and stories must come to an end. this last chapter will test you, and took me a long while to navigate all the crooks and crannies.. but it was fine since I didn't want it to be over. alas
I never posted a review on this game despite having played it long ago already, instead I farmed the hours on it to ascend more and more. Ryukishi07 is an absolute genius I love Higurashi, and you need to play it too for your life to become better. If you watch the anime before playing this game then you should sacrifice yourself, so make sure to play the game first. meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh meep meep nipaaah nipaaah meep nipaahh
+Highlights +Soundtracks +Better understanding and almost-perfect presentation of major characters such for Takano, Irie, Hanyuu, Okonogi, etc. +The writing has massively improved. I love the fact that Ryukishi07 leads the narration and put his thoughts in the monologue. Some are really funny and charming that was unexpected that I spit from my drink. The writing have gotten so much better in this final chapter. +The Sea of Fragments +Much improved pacing +Much improved dialogues -Drawbacks - Missing voicelines - Lack of more CGs. This game maybe has like 4 new CGs. This is bit disappointing since this is the final mainline story of this series with lots of moments. Seriously... Ryukishi07-san should have atleast hired fans to do artworks for CGs in this game. This is especially more disappointing when one of the characters didn't even get an appearance, a character that was the catalyst from the very first game. It was just said that he's "safe but unstable". It took me such a long time to get there, after countless of hundreds of hours but I finally read all the mainline of this series. Phew.
