HMN Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 No, the common route stays common to the end. If you have to choose a girl somewhere in that route, then it's not a common route, but if it's also not prologue, what is it? *rage flips his desk* crunchytaco 1 Quote

If you have to choose a girl somewhere in that route, then it's not a common route, but if it's also not prologue, what is it? Everyone ever has always used "common route" to talk about the part of the game where you're not in a girl's route. A route that doesn't correspond to a girl is quite rare. Quote
SanadaShadow Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 I guess, in literature, it may be called the "body" of the novel. However, is there a route where you don't choose a girl? Â Everyone ever has always used "common route" to talk about the part of the game where you're not in a girl's route. A route that doesn't correspond to a girl is quite rare.

SanadaShadow Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Finally, I get an answer to my question. Man, you're hard to understand. Quote
Flutterz Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 I WILL NEVER CALL IT THAT UNLESS IT'S COMMON TO THE END! In that case have fun being the only one. Most VNs don't have an entire route where you don't pick a girl, some just have a short bad end if you don't pick one, and very few non-nukige have a harem route/ending, which I guess you could call not picking one of the girls.

SanadaShadow Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Yeah, but I find personal interest in common routes, as a completionist gamer. I cannot stop playing until I have a hundred percent, even if I missed just one dialogue. Quote
LiquidShu Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 I was actually planning on choosing Yumiko for my first play through... Should I just get it over with first since it's so bad or go with Amanae? Quote
Joshuam303 Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 yumiko is the worst route in the whole game so i can see where you're coming from but you'll miss out big time if you don't do amane's route I agree! amane's route is by far the best (well to me at least) I was actually planning on choosing Yumiko for my first play through... Should I just get it over with first since it's so bad or go with Amanae? I would suggest you try amane's route first ^^ Quote
HMN Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 I was actually planning on choosing Yumiko for my first play through... Should I just get it over with first since it's so bad or go with Amanae? i suggest you play them in this order Makina -> Amane -> Sachi -> Michiru -> Yumiko  I agree! amane's route is by far the best (well to me at least) poor yumiko no matter what people say she would still be my favorite Quote
Joshuam303 Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 i suggest you play them in this order Makina -> Amane -> Sachi -> Michiru -> Yumiko  poor yumiko no matter what people say she would still be my favorite Amane was mine, then michiru or yumiko, then the other one, then makina, then sachi  Originally i was only interested in yumiko, but as i went down amane's route i started to like her a lot more Quote
LiquidShu Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 i suggest you play them in this order Makina -> Amane -> Sachi -> Michiru -> Yumiko  poor yumiko no matter what people say she would still be my favorite  Makina doesn't really pique my interest was actually planning on playing her second to last heheh. Probably going to go Amane > Sach > Yumiko > TBA. Quote

Â the order i played it, was Yumiko->Amane->Michiru->Makina->Sachi, haha but yea didn't enjoy much of makina & sachi's, preferred the other 3 a lot more but guess its my personal preference Quote
HMN Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Makina doesn't really pique my interest was actually planning on playing her second to last heheh. Probably going to go Amane > Sach > Yumiko > TBA. The order I presented to you is the order you'll encounter their routes,but of course play it in the order you prefer Quote
crunchytaco Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Finished Amane's route yesterday, and Yumiko's good route today.  I have to say, Amane's good ending was probably the saddest good ending I've read. Her story was depressing from start to finish. She couldn't forgive herself until the day she passed away? No closure on Kazuki? Jesus, talk about a burdensome life. I know everyone grows old and ends up in the same place one day, but to see a person's life fleet by like that was depressing. After Yuuji's talk about death being a permanent sleep, it was really unconvincing seeing him taking her to heaven with him. I imagined it was the delusions of an old lady in her final moments.  I didn't expect to fall for Yumiko so much. Amane started out being my common route favorite, but Yumiko really hit my soft spot in her route. Her background story was nothing impressive but she is too cute and precious. Her ending was more in line with the kind of ending I expect from a "happy" ending.  I'm going to jump into Michiru's route now. Quote

BookwormOtaku Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Begun playing Xblaze Code Embryo and liking it so far. It's interesting to hear terms from the Blazblue series and it has me curious how it's going to lead into that Quote

Â Â Yeah I know Kazuki's not dead yet. I just meant in Amane's route, she had no closure for Kazuki. Quote
HMN Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Yeah I know Kazuki's not dead yet. I just meant in Amane's route, she had no closure for Kazuki. Have you played the bad end of amane's route it has some information you know On a side note nice avatar my friend I approve of it!! Quote
LiquidShu Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Quick question, do you guys play the bad ends even after you get the good end? It seems kinda pointless to me after I get the good end as it would kill the whole good vibe you know? Or do you guys get the bad ends first on purpose so the good end feels more rewarding? Quote

Or do you guys get the bad ends first on purpose so the good end feels more rewarding? i myself go for bad then good if i can and if there is a bad one not all games have them. that way, rather than having a happy ending, then going back to the bad one and getting sad, i can just get sad, then get happy from the good ending (if it makes sense) and i like seeing both endings out of curiosity Quote

If that makes sense, unless I really like the VN and want to 100% it. Quote
HMN Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Makes sense, I just personally don't want to play for 10+ hours of a route to get sad and then do it again to get happy. If that makes sense, unless I really like the VN and want to 100% it. Don't forget that There could be even some important information in the bad ends so I go for them just to make sure Quote
