Swan Song

Post by hobogunner »

I just finished playing the game, wondering if any other forumite has played it, if not it is definitely worth the playthrough.

It's a realistic post-apocalyptic game. That is just insanely awesome.

Although, I will forewarn those who are going to play it: It is definitely a 18+ Game I think I threw up at least twice, accidentally cut my thumb on my knife (I flip it open and closed when I'm concentrating) from some scenes.

It is an eroge, however, if you play it for that reason, don't expect too much. I skipped through the majority of H-scenes, there is only one or two that actually have plot going on (I mean discussions about what's going to happen).

Play the game. I wish you could do the good end without having to go through the normal end. :?

:cry: Please don't say those three words so easily. That game gave me nightmares. I've forgotten about it mostly though, and I surely don't plan on playing it again.

Although,
Spoiler! :
That game was disturbing from the start, so I expected most of the disgusting things.

Regurgitated Chinese take-out at 3 A.M. tastes worse than any fluid in a car. Both games made me throw up. :|

Never heard of Black Cyc games, and I really don't want to play any of their games after googling them. :?

If it becomes translated, I might play it. What is this? Make sure Hocchan knows of all the disturbing VN titles? :|

I almost read Saya no Uta some years back. Fortunately, I've read up the spoilers and as to what it contained before venturing. I'll never read such VNs. As to it being disturbing, while I agreed, I have seen even much more disturbing ones (based on spoilers of course), and you won't even want to know such VNs exist.

Well, I suppose gory VN's is just a subgenre of the idea.

I read Saya no Uta while getting only 1 hour of a nap and then driving to school. I'd occasionally open my eyes and my mind would auto adapt into what that guy saw. That was by far the most disturbing parts about it for me. (Just like me thinking I was going to Academy City after watching Railgun in one night and not sleeping :lol: )

Ah. . .I don't know. Those almost always turn out to be nukige, which I don't have much interest in.

I've actually played Saya no Uta for a bit, and quit midway.

there's a BL which is about a guy wrongly framed and put into prison. just reading the plot summary (by accident actually) is enough to make my eyeballs rot. I don't know what kind of sane Fujoshi will actually read that. I need to cleanse my soul after that by playing 3 moe VNs.

Moe:It cleanses the soul.

Sounds like a demotivational.
